$1000 Invested In This Stock 10 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

Linde (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LIN#NASDAQ">LIN</a>) today announced it has signed a new long-term agreement with Blue Point Number One, a joint venture between CF Industries, JERA and Mitsui &amp; Co. Under the terms of the agreement, Linde will supply industrial gases to Blue Point's 1.4 million metric tons low-carbon ammonia plant in Ascension Parish, Louisiana.
Linde will build, own and operate a world-scale air separation unit (ASU) to supply oxygen and nitrogen to the Blue Point project, expected to be one of the largest low-carbon ammonia projects in the world. Linde will invest more than $400 million in the new on-site plant, which is expected to start up in 2029.
Linde's extensive U.S. Gulf Coast infrastructure includes multiple industrial gases production facilities across the region. The new on-site facility will be the largest ASU in the Mississippi River corridor of southeast Louisiana, complementing Linde's existing strong hydrogen and syngas infrastructure in the area.

Linde to Invest $400M in Giant Louisiana Plant Supplying Gases for Low-Carbon Ammonia Project

Turns out, when it comes to share repurchases, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-basic-materials-stocks">most materials companies</a> may have been better off buying the S&amp;P 500.
JPMorgan analyst Jeffrey Zekauskas just gave the sector a reality check: Of 31 major Materials firms tracked since 2019, nearly two-thirds saw negative absolute returns on their buyback programs. Even worse, 24 of them underperformed a simple S&amp;P 500 ETF investment, even after accounting for taxes.
The conclusion? These repurchases weren't just disappointing but financially destructive.
Across the group, billions were poured into buybacks that cratered in value. Celanese Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CE#NYSE">CE</a>) sank over $1.47 billion into repurchases, only to underperform a hypothetical S&amp;P 500 investment by more than $2.5 billion. Dow Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DOW#NYSE">DOW</a>) fared even worse, erasing $3.5 billion in relative value. And Huntsman Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HUN#NYSE">HUN</a>) torched $1.6 billion with an eye-watering 61.5% drop in buyback value.
But it wasn't all gloom.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Linde, Corteva, CF Prove Buybacks Can Work &#8211; If You Pick Your Spots</h2>
Among the few bright spots, Linde Plc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LIN#NASDAQ">LIN</a>) stands tall. With a 58.7% return on buybacks &#8211; and a nearly $8.8 billion edge over the S&amp;P 500 &#8211; the industrial gas giant proved that timing, valuation, and execution still matter. 
Corteva Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CTVA#NYSE">CTVA</a>), up 47.9% on its buybacks, outperformed by $1.36 billion. CF Industries Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CF#NYSE">CF</a>) delivered a 40.1% gain and a $1.16 billion upside vs. the index.
What makes these companies different? For one, they've all posted significant share price gains over the six-year period — Corteva is up nearly 56%, and CF has surged 54%, easily outpacing the S&amp;P 500's 40.5% gain. Contrast that with firms like Tronox Holdings PLC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TROX#NYSE">TROX</a>), where the stock collapsed over 60%, and the case for more disciplined capital return becomes clear.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Time For A New Materials Playbook?</h2>
Zekauskas' note makes a clear case: most Materials firms engage in buybacks without publishing any assessment of the value generated. Instead of accountability, there&#8217;s a blind faith in EPS boosts &#8211; which also conveniently pad executive comp packages.
Investors would be wise to scrutinize buyback programs in this sector, especially when management remains mum on returns. Until there's more transparency &#8211; and better timing &#8211; the Materials sector might want to trade in its buyback habit for one that&#8217;s a bit more… constructive.

<h3>Why Congressional Transactions Matter</h3>
A congressional transaction is when any representative or senator either buys or sells an individual stock.
Anyone working in Congress must file a Periodic Transaction Report to inform the public of their recent transaction within 30 days of being notified of the transaction and within 45 days of the transaction date.
In April 2012, Former President Barack Obama signed the STOCK Act into law. The act prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them by their position for personal gain such as buying or selling a stock. The act also expanded disclosure requirements for members of Congress by requiring them to file a monthly disclosure.
<h3>Why Congressional Transactions Matter</h3>
Congressional transactions shouldn't be the primary reason for an investing decision, but they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
When a senator or representative makes a new purchase, it could be an indication they expect the stock to rise.
A sale, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean the seller thinks the stock will go down.

$100 Invested In Linde 5 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

As May opens for business, shell-shocked stock market investors are waving goodbye to April with both hands. While the major stock indexes have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/45027002/benzinga-bulls-and-bears-netflix-novavax-intel-and-the-market-begins-to-bounce-back">bounced back</a> moderately over the last week, stocks fell 11% at one point and declined 20% since mid-February, primarily due to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/25/04/45050322/how-youll-know-the-tariff-troubles-are-over">tariff troubles</a> affecting the global economy.
That's not all. Consumer spending was at a two-year low in the first quarter of 2025, while first-quarter US gross domestic product fell by 0.3%, fueling talk of a recession on the horizon.
Older traders are talking about a &#8220;Templeton Moment&#8221; right now, and likely with good reason. The term stems from legendary trader John Templeton, who famously borrowed $10,000 to buy shares in every company trading on the New York Stock Exchange for under $1 during a market trough in 1939, during the Great Depression. The list included 104 companies, including 34 that were bankrupt. A few years later, Templeton banked huge gains on all but four stocks when he sold.
Today&#8217;s market could be your opportunity for something similar.
"It doesn&#8217;t resemble a &#8216;Templeton Moment,&#8217; but I would be cautious," said Eugenia Mykuliak, founder and executive director at B2PRIME Group, a global financial services provider for institutional investors. "Today&#8217;s market has more nuances, and we're not close to an &#8216;extreme&#8217; pessimism, unlike the 1930s. Even though there are some well-valued stocks out there, that's certainly not an invitation to buy in bulk."
Unlike the 1930's, which saw economic indicators drag across the board, this market has largely fallen victim to one malady.
&#8220;Uncertainty has been generated by the announcement, delay, magnitude, and duration of tariffs," said Karl Farmer, portfolio manager at Rockland Trust Bank. "With over 40% of the S&amp;P 500's revenues coming from outside the US, the tariffs can have some big impacts on inventory management and purchase plans as producers and consumers face higher prices."
Resulting market uncertainty means less confidence in profit consistency and usually lower multiples that investors place on earnings.
"Higher costs likely lead to lower profits if sellers cannot pass on the price increases to their customers, or at a minimum, it leads to lower consumption," Farmer said. "A lower multiple coupled with lower profits means lower market levels. The longer the tariffs remain, the more likely there will be behavior changes by both producers and consumers, as many will seek alternatives if they believe that higher prices are not temporary."
If the delayed reciprocal tariffs are implemented in full and there have been few negotiated breakthroughs, "then we have not seen the bottom," Farmer added.
Here are today&#8217;s buying opportunities and what to look out for.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Stocks To Pounce On At Lower Market Levels</h2>
Templeton or no Templeton, when the markets slide significantly, there's always low-hanging fruit available, and the US stock market is no different. Here are a few names that stock market gurus like in a shallower pricing market.
British American Tobacco (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BTI#NYSE">BTI</a>). Sluggish stock markets spell opportunity for stocks that demonstrate good resilience amid uncertainty, especially those that turn to future-oriented technologies, Mykuliak said.
Shopify (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHOP#NASDAQ">SHOP</a>). Mykuliak also likes stocks that offer investors a double dose of value.
"Shopify could be another good example of a perfect combination of AI and e-commerce, which are two powerful trends today," she said. "If merchants want to adapt to new retail realities, it&#8217;s a top choice for them."
Nike (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>). According to Farmer, defensive sectors such as consumer staples and utilities have held up very well this year. "Presently, we favor some names in other areas that may have been overly punished, but could provide above-average returns for the patient investor," he said.
Nike tops that list. Nike is no quick fix for a 2025 portfolio, but it makes sense in this market.
"A pop could be had here if tariffs end quickly," Farmer said. "Nike did have issues even before tariffs, but it's a reinvigorating brand, and it's repairing relationships. Plus, Nike shares are down 70% from peak to 2017 levels, which provides a decent entry point."
Air Products and Chemicals (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APD#NYSE">APD</a>). Air Products is a market leader in industrial gas trading at a big discount to competitor Linde (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LIN#NASDAQ">LIN</a>). "Future growth is coming from new projects and clean energy transition," Farmer said. "Additionally, the company has a strong and predictable recurring revenue model with on-site plants and 20-year contracts." Thermo Fisher Scientific (NYSE: TMO) is a market leader in life sciences, diagnostics and instruments.
"The stock is off 30% in the last three months on fears of spending cutbacks from customers who rely on federal funding for research," Farmer notes. "It's trading at less than market multiples for better earnings growth. Meanwhile, clarity on federal funding should mark a bottom."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">More Than A "Buy the Dip" Scenario</h2>
As uncertainty prevails in the stock market, money managers are taking a more defensive stance with their portfolios, with one eye on historical trends.
"Historically, when volatility spikes—as it did in early April—the equity markets tend to see large gains one year later," said Andrew Constantinides, a financial advisor at Neil Jesani Wealth Management. "In the short term, however, calling the bottom is much harder. Investors should always remember: There can always be more downside in the market—unless it's at zero."
Constantinides said his firm is primarily focused on value and international stocks.
"Both categories have underperformed U.S. growth stocks over the past 10 years," he noted. "But Q1 of 2025 showed the first real signs of a cycle shift back toward value and international leadership. We favor developed markets, such as Europe and Asia. Our current sector focus is energy and financials—companies with low price-to-earnings ratios and high earnings yield. We have almost no exposure to large-cap tech."

This Market Is The Buying Opportunity Of A Lifetime

Editor&#8217;s Note: The article has been udpated to correct the Stock Movers list.
Wall Street pushed higher in midday trading, with the S&amp;P 500 on track for its eighth consecutive gain — its longest winning streak since November 2023. The index rose about 1% to 5,560, fully recovering the losses sustained after former President Donald Trump announced <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs">trade tariffs on April 2.</a>
Technology stocks led the rally, with the Nasdaq 100 climbing 1.5%. Strong and resilient corporate earnings continue to fuel investor appetite for risk, helping markets shrug off recent tariff concerns.
President Trump reassured investors, stating that progress on trade negotiations is going "very well" and that the timeline for the tax bill remains on schedule.
On the economic front, data continued to paint a weaker picture. After Wednesday's disappointing first-quarter GDP report, the ISM manufacturing PMI showed factory activity contracted for the second straight month in April. Meanwhile, price pressures surged at the fastest pace since June 2022, reflecting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/05/45139383/us-manufacturing-activity-contracts-in-april-as-tariffs-push-input-prices-toward-3-year-highs">inflationary effects from tariffs.</a>
Microsoft Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NYSE">MSFT</a>) was a standout gainer, soaring 8.60% after delivering a blowout quarter that beat expectations across the board, reinforcing its leadership in cloud and AI. The stock reached its highest level since late January.
Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) also topped estimates, with shares climbing more than 4%.
Sector-wise, technology outperformed, while health care lagged. Eli Lilly And Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>) plunged over 9% after the pharmaceutical giant cut its 2025 guidance.
Crude oil erased early losses, rebounding to $58 per barrel after briefly dipping below $57. Gold slipped 2.2% to a two-week low.
The U.S. dollar strengthened to its highest level in over two weeks, bolstered by manufacturing surveys showing rising input costs tied to tariffs.
Treasury yields climbed for a second straight session, with the 10-year yield rising to 4.21%.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) surged past the $97,000 mark, hitting its highest level in over two months.
