The Official TRUMP (TRUMP) coin has surged 4.27% in the last 24 hours, reaching $18.50, with a market cap of $3.7 billion. Despite this short-term rally, TRUMP remains down 75.36% from its all-time high of $75.35 set on Jan. 19. 
What Happened: This dramatic drop follows a volatile market phase, where it <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43335432/trump-meme-coin-now-accepted-for-merchandise-purchases">lost 42% of its value in the last week</a>.
The meme coin, originally launched by CIC Digital, a group linked to President Donald Trump's campaign, reached an astonishing market cap of nearly $75 billion within days of its launch. 
However, its meteoric rise has been matched by sharp declines, as investors face uncertainty amid broader market conditions and recent <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43152664/trump-memecoin-achieved-this-valuation-milestone-inside-two-days-that-took-jeff-bezos-amazon-over-13-years">tariff announcements by Trump</a>.
Despite the volatility, TRUMP has still managed to maintain its position as one of the top meme coins, even after falling from 14th to 32nd in market cap rankings, according <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/official-trump/#About">to</a> CoinMarketCap.
At the time of writing, TRUMP was the second-best performing coin behind FTX Token (FTT), according to data from CoinMarketCap. TRUMP outpaced Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>), and meme-king Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) over a 24-hour period.

Why It Matters: The coin has also started to see real-world use cases, with online merchants and travel websites like Travala accepting TRUMP as <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43335432/trump-meme-coin-now-accepted-for-merchandise-purchases">payment through Solana Pay</a>. 
The involvement of insiders linked to CIC Digital, who control a large portion of the coin's supply, has raised concerns over potential market manipulation and its <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43335432/trump-meme-coin-now-accepted-for-merchandise-purchases">impact on price stability</a>.
Price Action: The Official TRUMP coin is currently priced at $18.50, up 4.09% in the last 24 hours. It has experienced a significant 171.24% increase since its inception, according <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/official-trump/#About">to</a> CoinMarketCap.

TRUMP Meme Coin Jumps 4.27%, Outpaces Bitcoin, Ethereum And Dogecoin, But It's Still No Where Near January Highs

Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) is gearing up to introduce a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/42055771/amazons-ai-powered-alexa-upgrade-faces-latency-compatibility-concerns-report">major AI upgrade</a> to its Alexa voice assistant with a press event reportedly in New York on Feb. 26.
What Happened: Internally known as &#8220;Banyan&#8221; or &#8220;Remarkable Alexa,&#8221; the upgrade has experienced delays due to concerns about response quality and speed. A final decision on its readiness is anticipated on Feb. 14 during a &#8220;Go/No-go&#8221; meeting, reported Reuters.
The enhanced Alexa is designed to improve user interaction by processing multiple prompts in sequence and functioning as an &#8220;agent&#8221; for users. This represents a shift from the current version, which typically handles one request at a time.

Amazon intends to initially offer the upgraded service to a limited user base for free, although a monthly fee ranging from $5 to $10 was being considered.
The existing &#8220;Classic Alexa&#8221; will continue to be available at no cost, but it will not receive any new features, the report noted, citing one person familiar with the matter.

Why It Matters: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42176396/amazon-anthropic">Amazon&#8217;s $8 billion investment</a> in AI startup Anthropic will bolster the new Alexa&#8217;s AI capabilities.
This overhaul is viewed as a strategic effort to convert Alexa&#8217;s extensive user base into paying customers, addressing the current service&#8217;s lack of profitability, the report added.
The Alexa division has been grappling with profitability issues, reportedly incurring a $5 billion loss in 2022. According <a href="https://fortune.com/2024/06/24/amazon-ai-enabled-remarkable-alexa-paid-version-subscription-investment-cuts/">to</a> Bank of America, the success of &#8220;Remarkable Alexa&#8221; is crucial, as further investment cuts could occur if the paid version does not gain traction.
Last month, OpenAI&#8217;s ChatGPT also entered the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42993561/is-openais-chatgpt-about-to-make-amazons-alexa-apples-siri-and-google-assistant-a-thing-of-the-past">virtual assistant market</a> with its &#8220;Tasks&#8221; feature, challenging established players like Amazon&#8217;s Alexa, Apple&#8217;s Siri, and Google&#8217;s Assistant.
Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) has chosen to integrate its &#8220;Apple Intelligence&#8221; into Siri, using the capabilities of ChatGPT.

What Happened:&nbsp;Bitcoin briefly dipped below $97,000, touching a low of $96,174.83, while other major altcoins also faced downward pressure. The pullback follows recent remarks from Federal Reserve Vice Chair Philip Jefferson, who urged caution regarding interest rate cuts in the current economic environment.
Jefferson stated Tuesday that the central bank should be careful when adjusting interest rates amid economic uncertainty. His comments aligned with the Federal Open Market Committee's recent decision to maintain the federal funds rate at 4.25% to 4.5%, according to a CNBC report. The Fed has previously cut rates by a total of one percentage point over three meetings after aggressive hikes to combat inflation.

Separately, cryptocurrency analyst Michaël van de Poppe provided a long-term bullish outlook, suggesting that Bitcoin could reach $500,000 and Ethereum $20,000 in an extended bull cycle. He compared the current market setup to previous speculative booms, including the dot-com era and the 2017 crypto surge, emphasizing institutional adoption and government support as key drivers.
Van de Poppe also pointed to macroeconomic shifts that could impact crypto, including potential devaluation strategies by China and increased institutional involvement in Bitcoin. He noted that the U.S. government appears increasingly supportive of digital assets, with financial institutions expanding custody services and regulatory attitudes shifting toward broader adoption. 
Despite the recent bearish sentiment, he argued that altcoins remain undervalued and that the long-term crypto cycle still has room for upside movement. &#8220;The current sentiment of the markets is ultra bearish as the biggest daily capitulation in the history of the crypto markets has been taking place,&#8221; he wrote.

Bitcoin, Dogecoin Drop, Ethereum Drop After Fed Vice Chair Pours Cold Water On Rate Cut Expectations: Top Trader Sees BTC At $500,000 And ETH At $20,000

Google's parent company 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>) has reportedly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/42835400/mcdonalds-scales-back-diversity-initiatives-amid-conservative-pressure-cites-shifting-legal-landscape">decided to discontinue</a> its diversity, equity, and inclusion hiring targets.
What Happened: Fiona Cicconi, Google&#8217;s head of HR, cites the company&#8217;s obligations as a federal contractor and recent U.S. court rulings and executive orders as reasons for the change, <a href="https://www.theverge.com/google/607012/google-dei-hiring-goals-internal-memo">reported</a> The Verge, citing a memo obtained on Wednesday.
The Wall Street Journal also <a href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/google-kills-diversity-hiring-targets-04433d7c?st=4f5Pst">noted</a> that Google has removed a statement from its SEC reports about its commitment to DEI.

Google spokesperson Chloe Cooper told the publication that the company remains dedicated to fostering a workplace where all employees can thrive.
Alphabet did not immediately respond to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga's</a> request for comments.
Why It Matters: Earlier, Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), Target Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TGT#NYSE">TGT</a>), and McDonald's Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCD#NYSE">MCD</a>) also announced the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/43214683/target-ends-dei-program-following-trumps-call-to-eliminate-illegal-preferences-expert-calls-it-brand-suicide-for-retail-giant-with-diverse-customer-base">discontinuation of their</a> DEI programs.
Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) also decided to wind down on some of its DEI initiatives.&nbsp;
The decisions came after President Donald Trump ordered federal agencies to dismantle DEI programs and urged private companies to stop what he called &#8220;illegal DEI discrimination and preferences.&#8221;
Alphabet reported <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/02/43479274/alphabet-q4-earnings-highlights-ai-cloud-youtube-momentum-continues-capex-guidance-sends-shares-lower">fourth-quarter revenue</a> of $96.5 billion, marking a 12% increase from the previous year. However, it narrowly missed the Street consensus estimate of $96.6 billion.
Price Action: As of this writing, Alphabet's Class A shares were up 0.089% in after-hours trading, while Class C shares rose 0.052%. Earlier on Wednesday, Class A shares closed 7.29% lower at $191.33, and Class C shares dropped 6.94% to $193.30, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Cathie Wood Sells Palantir Shares As Rally Cools Down, Ark Invest Also Dumps Nearly $7 Million Worth Of Robinhood Stock

Before Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) became the world's most valuable semiconductor company, it was on the brink of bankruptcy—until a single letter from Jensen Huang to Tawan Semiconductor's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) Morris Chang changed everything.&nbsp;&nbsp;
What Happened: In 1997, Nvidia was struggling financially, with just 50 to 60 employees and an increasingly uncertain future.
Facing potential bankruptcy, Nvidia CEO wrote a letter to Chang, pleading for the company's support in manufacturing a critical chip that could turn Nvidia's fortunes around.
In a podcast, Chang recalled time saying that in his letter, Huang explained that Nvidia had developed promising technology but was struggling to find a reliable foundry partner.
Nvidia had already approached TSMC's San Jose office but had received no response. The letter, mailed to TSMC's general post office, eventually made its way to Chang, sparking curiosity and irritation.

"The letter raised my curiosity and also irritated me a little bit," Chang recalled. "I had always told our salespeople that we should never be negligent in talking to future customers, even if the customer seems to be a very small one."&nbsp;&nbsp;
Coincidentally, Chang was planning a visit to the U.S. the following week. He decided to call Huang personally using the phone number printed on the letter's stationery.
Huang answered amidst background noise, seemingly in the middle of a heated discussion with his team. But as soon as he realized who was calling, he silenced the room and excitedly shouted, "Quiet! Morris Chang is calling me!"&nbsp;&nbsp;
The two arranged to meet in person, where Huang made a bold prediction. Despite Nvidia's financial troubles, he was confident that its upcoming chip—whose name Chang couldn't recall—would not only save the company but also make Nvidia one of TSMC's major customers.

"That was quite a bold statement," Chang admitted. "We were a billion-dollar company at that time, and to be a major customer of ours, he would have to produce revenue for us of at least $50 million a year."&nbsp;&nbsp;
Against all odds, Huang's prediction came true. The chip was a massive success, not only rescuing Nvidia from financial collapse but also cementing its position as a leading force in the gaming and graphics industry.
Within two to three years, Nvidia had become one of TSMC's top five customers.

Why It Matters: Today, Nvidia and TSMC's partnership, potentially valued in billions of dollars, is one of the most important in the semiconductor industry.
TSMC manufactures the world's most advanced chips, including Nvidia's AI-focused GPUs, which have driven the company's market valuation to $3.057 trillion. 
Nvidia's AI processors, such as the H100 and upcoming Blackwell GPUs, rely on TSMC's cutting-edge fabrication technology. Nvidia contributed 11% of TSMC&#8217;s revenue in 2023, according to estimates from semiconductor analyst Dan Nystedt. The company paid TSMC $7.73 billion that year for its services.

Earlier it was revealed in Chang's biography that in 2013 he offered Huang the position of CEO at his company. However, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42270404/nvidia-ceo-jensen-huang-was-offered-ceo-role-at-rival-company-in-2013-i-already-have-a-job">Nvidia CEO declined</a>, stating, &#8220;I already have a job.&#8221;
TSMC currently has a market capitalization of $1.081 trillion, making it the 10th most valuable company in the world.
However, reports from last year suggested strain in Nvidia and TSMC's three-decade partnership. The Information <a href="https://www.theinformation.com/articles/nvidia-and-tsmcs-lucrative-ai-alliance-shows-signs-of-stress">reported</a> that TSMC believes Nvidia rushed production despite knowing about Blackwell&#8217;s defects. Meanwhile, Nvidia blamed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40800236/nvidia-faces-investor-scrutiny-over-blackwell-chip-delays-big-revenue-expected-report">delays on TSMC's new</a> semiconductor packaging technology.

Jensen Huang Once Wrote A Desperate Letter To Save Nvidia But Also Forged A Partnership Worth Billions With TSMC: Morris Chang Reveals The Story

Banks have successfully sold $5.5 billion in loans tied to X Corp., the social media platform owned by Elon Musk, amid <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/25/01/43373012/elon-musk-bringing-advertisers-back-to-x-amazon-boosts-spending-apple-considers-return">surging investor demand</a>. 
What Happened: The sale, which was initially planned at $3 billion, was expanded due to heightened interest, with investors including Pimco and Citadel purchasing the loans at 97 cents on the dollar, people familiar with the matter <a href="https://www.wsj.com/finance/banks-sell-5-5-billion-of-x-loans-after-investor-interest-surges-4b84f89c?st=GYpPqP&amp;reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink">told</a> The Wall Street Journal. 
The floating-rate debts carry an interest rate of approximately 11%—a premium even compared to some of Wall Street's riskiest loans.
The transaction underscores the renewed investor enthusiasm surrounding X Corp. following Musk's growing influence in Washington and the return of key advertisers, such as Amazon.com Inc. The platform faced significant turmoil after Musk's $44 billion acquisition in 2022, as advertisers pulled back due to concerns over content moderation. While X is still grappling with financial challenges, recent signs of stability have drawn fresh interest from investors.
At a recent investor meeting led by Morgan Stanley (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MS#NYSE">MS</a>) bankers and X CEO Linda Yaccarino, financial documents revealed that Musk's artificial intelligence startup, xAI, has injected hundreds of millions of dollars into X. The two entities share executives and business ties, and X now holds a 10% stake in xAI, valued at approximately $5 billion, according to the WSJ report.

Why It Matters: The loan sale is a significant win for the banks, including Morgan Stanley, Bank of America Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>), and Barclays (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BCS#NYSE">BCS</a>), which originally extended financing for Musk's 2022 buyout. The sluggish performance of X and high interest rates had forced them to hold onto the debt far longer than expected.
Despite the successful sale, the banks still retain around $6 billion in X-related debt, some of which is considered riskier. X remains under financial pressure, with annual interest payments exceeding $1 billion. 
With major advertisers like Amazon ramping up spending and Apple Inc. reportedly considering reintroducing ads.

Elon Musk's Lenders Cash In $5.5 Billion On Thanks To Investor Demand For X Loans: Report

Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency has secured access to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, according a report Wednesday. The extent of the access and the systems involved are yet to be clarified.
What Happened: DOGE representatives have been granted access to key payment and contract systems, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/politics/elon-musk-doge-medicare-medicaid-fraud-e697b162?mod=hp_lead_pos3">reported</a> Wall Street Journal. However, the CMS has not provided any clarification on this matter.
Musk said on X that &#8220;big money fraud&#8221; was taking place at the CMS on Wednesday in response to another user sharing the story..
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

&mdash; Elon Musk (@elonmusk) <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1887184902543577590?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 5, 2025</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
The CMS confirmed the collaboration with DOGE, mentioning two senior agency veterans leading the collaboration and ensuring appropriate access to CMS systems and technology, according to the Journal.
DOGE&#8217;s focus on CMS aligns with its&nbsp;mandate to cut at least&nbsp;$1 trillion in federal spending. The CMS, which spent over $1.5 trillion in 2024, is often criticized for fraudulent and wasteful spending. Musk expressed&nbsp;his interest in the health&nbsp;agency, hinting at potential fraud in Medicare spending.
Musk&#8217;s representatives had reportedly yet to access sensitive databases that include identifiable personal health information of people enrolled in both Medicaid and Medicare. The access given to DOGE representatives was &#8220;read-only.&#8221;

Why It Matters: DOGE&#8217;s access to CMS comes in the wake of Trump&#8217;s Medicaid cuts. In January it was reported that the GOP was pushing for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/43191852/an-existential-fight-ahead-why-trumps-medicaid-cuts-could-leave-millions-struggling-with-healthcare-costs">big changes to Medicaid</a>, which serves 79 million low-income or disabled Americans.
Later that month, the White House ordered a temporary freeze on all federal grants and loans, putting $3 trillion in funding under scrutiny. This move threatened a wide range of industries, including healthcare. Benzinga reported that all federal agencies were <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43290381/trumps-federal-spending-freeze-puts-3-trillion-in-limbo-threatens-industries-like-clean-energy-defense-healthcare">required to halt disbursements</a> while programs were reviewed for alignment with Trump&#8217;s policy priorities.
Soon after the freeze was announced the Medicaid website stopped functioning, but the White House later attributed that to an &#8220;outage.&#8221; The executive branch of the government said that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43294006/trump-white-house-blames-outage-for-medicaid-website-lockout-we-have-confirmed-no-payments-have-been-affected">no payments had been affected</a>.
The Department of Government Efficiency shares its acronym with Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>), the cryptocurrency frequently mentioned in Musk&#8217;s posts on X.
Price Action: At the time of writing, DOGE traded 2.7% lower at $0.26, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?utm_source=insights">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

DOGE Gains Access To Medicare And Medicaid Systems: Elon Musk Says, 'This Is Where The Big Money Fraud Is Happening'

Lucid Group Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LCID#NASDAQ">LCID</a>) reported record deliveries in the fourth quarter as the company prepares to grow in the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/electric-vehicle"> electric vehicle sector.</a>
The company enters 2025 with strong momentum and the launch of a second vehicle model.
What Happened: Lucid launched the highly anticipated Gravity three-row SUV in late 2024.
In January, Lucid sold 50 Lucid Gravity SUVs, according to data from Motor Intelligence reported by <a href="https://electrek.co/2025/02/04/lucid-lcid-ev-sales-climb-50-jan-after-gravity-suv-launch/">Electrek</a>. The company had total sales of 665 units in January, consisting of the Gravity vehicles and 615 Lucid Air sedans.
The sales figure is among the highest monthly totals in Lucid history, falling shy of the record 780 deliveries in the month of December. 
This represents a 51% year-over-year increase for Lucid for January, which could illustrate how important the launch of the Gravity was, giving the company a second model and important entry into the SUV sector.
Lucid reported deliveries of 3,099 vehicles in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42842059/lucids-q4-deliveries-soar-to-new-highs-gravity-suv-sets-optimism-for-coming-months">the fourth quarter</a>, a company record at the time. Quarterly deliveries were up 79% year-over-year in the fourth quarter.

Why It's Important: The Gravity SUV, which has a starting price of $94,900 will help Lucid compete with the Tesla Model X from Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and the Rivian R1S from Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>).
The company also plans to launch its lower-priced version of the Gravity later this year with a starting price of $79,900.
With the potential end of the federal EV tax credit, Tesla is expected to benefit from its lower prices. Lucid has not been among the sales leaders for EVs, but has received attention and praise <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/management/24/06/39364585/lucid-vs-tesla-ceo-says-companys-technology-is-a-number-of-years-ahead-of-ev-leader">for its technology.</a>
The early success of the Gravity could go a long way to showing that Lucid has staying power in the electric vehicle sector.
Lucid reports fourth-quarter financial results Feb. 25, which could offer more commentary on how Gravity demand and momentum is fairing. 
LCID Price Action: Lucid stock closed Wednesday at $2.91 versus a 52-week trading range of $1.93 to $4.43. The stock is up in the last several trading days, but shares remain down 10% over the past year. The stock is up over 40% from its year lows hit in December.

Signal description
Order flow analytics, aka transaction or market flow analysis, separate and study both the retail and institutional volume rate of orders (flow). It involves analyzing the flow of buy and sell orders, along with size, timing, and other associated characteristics and patterns, to gain insights and make more informed trading decisions. This particular indicator is interpreted as a bullish signal by active traders.&nbsp;

By incorporating order flow analytics into their trading strategies, market participants can better interpret market conditions, identify trading opportunities, and potentially improve their trading performance. But let's not forget that while watching smart money flow can provide valuable insights, it is crucial to incorporate effective risk management strategies to protect capital and mitigate potential losses.

TRADEPULSE POWER INFLOW ALERT: BROADCOM INC. (AVGO) MOVES UP 4% AFTER ALERT FROM TRADEPULSE

The life of shopping malls has transformed in recent years with big-box tenants going bankrupt and malls looking for new uses for their large real estate space, including new tenants, apartments and entertainment experiences like<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/06/39439112/will-netflix-save-shopping-malls-new-experiences-a-potential-game-changer-for-retail-center"> those from Netflix.</a>
Walmart Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>) is now the owner of a shopping mall and the move will likely be closely followed by the real estate sector.
 What Happened: For what is believed to be the first time in company history, Walmart is the owner of a shopping mall. The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/42247997/walmart-shoppers-shun-electronics-for-black-friday-deals-on-eggs-bread-slippers">world's largest retailer </a>paid $34 million to acquire the Monroeville Mall, located near Pittsburgh.
Walmart purchased the mall from CBL &amp; Associates (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CBL#NYSE">CBL</a>) recently and partnered with Cypress Equities to redevelop the property. Cypress has been used by Walmart previously to help with site selection on new retail locations.
"Walmart did purchase the Monroeville Mall and is very interested in being part of any future redevelopment of this site," Walmart said in a statement, as <a href="https://www.retaildive.com/news/walmart-buys-pittsburgh-area-mall/739277/">reported </a>by Retail Dive. "Walmart is working with Cypress on mall operations and potential redevelopment of the site."
The retailer is staying quiet on what the redevelopment plans look like for the 1.2 million square foot mall. The mall occupies 186 acres and sits near several major highways.
The Monroeville Mall, which was built in 1969, was last renovated in 2003. CBL bought the mall for $231.2 million in 2004.
Covering two stories, the mall has over 130 stores, which currently include Macy's, JCPenney, Dick's Sporting Goods, Best Buy, Barnes &amp; Noble and a Cinemark movie theater.
CBL, who listed the property for sale in December, said the mall gets over 3.5 million annual visits. &nbsp;

Why It's Important: With Walmart or Cypress not providing details on what will happen to the mall, a lot could change in the coming months.
The biggest question mark is why Walmart bought the mall, which leads into the second biggest question of will Walmart add its own store or a Sam's Club to the tenants that make up Monroeville Mall.
The report said Walmart does not have a store in Monroeville and has eyed the location before. With the mall having prominent real estate by major highways, a Walmart as a mall anchor could make a lot of sense and help justify the purchase price.
Based on what happens with this mall redevelopment it will also be interesting to see if Walmart keeps ownership of the property and becomes landlord to the other retailers and if the company would utilize this model at other shopping malls across the country.
WMT Price Action: Walmart stock closed 1.68% up at $102.46 on Wednesday versus a 52-week trading range of $55.85 to $102.58. Walmart stock hit the new 52-week highs during Wednesday's intraday session and the stock is now up 82% over the last year.

$100 Invested In Brookfield 15 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

Billionaire investor <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/25/01/43084861/mark-cubans-29-million-shark-tank-portfolio-from-200k-in-dude-wipes-to-200m-for-beatbox-beverages-im-killing-it">Mark Cuban</a> recently floated an interesting idea on X. He's thinking about launching his own meme coin, but with a twist. Unlike Donald Trump's $TRUMP token, which made waves in the crypto world, Cuban wants all the proceeds from his token sales to go straight to the U.S. Treasury to help tackle the national debt.
Cuban <a href="https://x.com/mcuban/status/1881445569727758392">said on X</a>: &#8220;If meme coins are the way, maybe I'll issue one. With a twist. Same terms as $TRUMP. 20% float. Same release schedule. One difference. All the revenue from the sale of the coins go to the U.S. Treasury. The wallet address will be published so everyone can track it. If you want to gamble, gamble. But at least use it to make a dent in the U.S. Debt. You in?&#8221;

</ul>
To put things into perspective, the U.S. national debt is sitting at a staggering $36.22 trillion, according to the U.S. Treasury. Naturally, Cuban's post blew up, racking up over 60,000 likes and sparking all kinds of reactions.&nbsp;
Some people were quick to call him out, reminding him that he had previously dismissed meme coins as &#8220;shit coins.&#8221; One user, &#8220;Injective AI Intern,&#8221; pointed out the contradiction, and Cuban clapped back, saying, &#8220;Just making the point. If it's a grift, make it a grift to benefit all Americans.&#8221;
Not everyone was against the idea, though. Journalist Brian Krassenstein chimed in, suggesting that Cuban could split the funds—half to the Treasury, half to help lower prescription drug prices.&nbsp;
Trending: According to Juniper Research, the total value of B2B cross-border payments stored on the blockchain is projected to exceed $4.4 trillion — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/web3-enabler-future-of-enterprise-transactions">Join the first company to bring blockchain payments to Salesforce early with just $100.</a>
Cuban wasn't on board with that, saying he didn't want to pick favorites and that paying down the national debt was the best way to create broad benefits.
Now, Cuban and Trump have a bit of a history. Cuban has been one of Trump's biggest critics, but at the same time, he's clearly paying attention to the financial success of the $TRUMP meme coin.&nbsp;
That token skyrocketed 1,000% in just two days, peaking at $71 before cooling off to about $26.40 by Jan. 27—still a hefty 300% jump from its launch.

But not everyone is thrilled about the rise of political meme coins. Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has raised red flags, calling them a &#8220;perfect bribery vehicle.&#8221; His concern? Politicians could profit without anyone actually handing them money.&nbsp;
&#8220;If a politician issues a coin, you don't even need to send them any coins to give them money,&#8221; Buterin said. &#8220;Instead, you just buy and hold the coin, and this increases the value of their holdings passively.&#8221; Basically, it's a sneaky way for financial influence to creep into politics.
Of course, not everyone sees it that way. White House AI and<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42009965/vaneck-ceo-boldly-predicts-bitcoin-at-300k-per-coin-reaching-half-of-golds-market-cap-in-the-face-of-growing-demand"> crypto</a> advisor David Sacks compared meme coins with collectibles—think baseball cards or stamps. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zOqyntqzOI">In an interview with Fox Business</a>, he said people aren't necessarily buying these tokens for financial gain but as a way to support or commemorate a political movement.
