Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) tore into Donald Trump&#8217;s alleged &#8220;side deal&#8221; with Iran on Monday and demanded that the president make public any such agreements with Tehran.
What Happened: Schumer took to X to criticise Trump, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and United States Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff. 
He said, &#8220;If TACO Trump is already folding on Iran, the American people need to know about it.&#8221; TACO refers to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45665026/trump-always-chickens-out-president-confronted-with-taco-trade-thesis-by-reporteras-markets-bet-hell-blink-again">Wall Street trade</a> premised on the idea that the president always backs away from his earlier aggressive stances. It&#8217;s an acronym for &#8220;Trump Always Chickens Out.&#8221;
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">If TACO Trump is already folding on Iran, the American people need to know about it. No side deals. <a href="https://t.co/T4gnekrGhT">pic.twitter.com/T4gnekrGhT</a>
&mdash; Chuck Schumer (@SenSchumer) <a href="https://twitter.com/SenSchumer/status/1929676991789203528?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 2, 2025</a></blockquote>

Schumer said Trump was &#8220;all over the lot&#8221; when it came to negotiating with Iran, in a video he attached to his post. &#8220;One day, he sounds tough, the next day he&#8217;s backing off.&#8221; The Senate minority leader said that it&#8217;s become public that Rubio and Witkoff are negotiating a &#8220;secret side deal&#8221; with Iran.
&#8220;They&#8217;re gonna sound tough in public and then and then have a side deal that lets Iran get away with everything? That&#8217;s outrageous,&#8221; said Schumer. He then went on to demand that such a deal be put before the American people and the Congress.
The United States has reportedly put forward a nuclear proposal to Iran, permitting limited low-level uranium enrichment within the country. This move marks a departure from previous public statements by U.S. officials advocating for zero enrichment.
The proposal, <a href="https://www.axios.com/2025/06/02/iran-nuclear-deal-proposal-enrich-uranium">reported</a> by Axios, was delivered by Witkoff. It includes preliminary ideas for the upcoming round of nuclear talks. The plan suggests that Iran dismantle key nuclear infrastructure and cease new centrifuge research. Additionally, it proposes a regional enrichment consortium, limiting Iran&#8217;s domestic capabilities to civilian purposes.
This proposal has raised concerns among U.S. allies, particularly Israel and Republican senators, who have consistently advocated for zero enrichment and the complete dismantlement of Iran&#8217;s nuclear program. Axios reported that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been pushing for a stringent deal and cautioned against actions that might jeopardize negotiations.

Meanwhile, Trump took to social media to deny that the administration would allow Iran to enrich Uranium.

Why It Matters: In April 2025, Iran signaled its willingness to engage in high-level nuclear discussions with the U.S., while warning against <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44758747/iran-signals-openness-to-nuclear-talks-with-us-warns-against-trumps-aggressive-theatrics">Trump&#8217;s aggressive theatrics</a>.
The latest proposal comes after a series of diplomatic gestures and tensions between the U.S. and Iran. In May 2025, Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45395894/trump-makes-peace-gesture-at-iran-amid-middle-east-optimism-willing-to-end-past-conflicts-and-forge-new-partnerships">extended an olive branch</a> to Iran, expressing hope for improved relations in the Middle East. This was part of a broader strategy to be perceived as a global peacemaker.
Trump had earlier reinstated his &#8220;maximum pressure&#8221; sanctions campaign on Iran, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43480859/trump-confirms-maximum-economic-pressure-on-iran-calls-chinas-tariff-retaliation-fine">aiming to increase economic and political pressure</a> on Tehran. This dual approach of pressure and diplomacy has characterized the U.S.-Iran relations under Trump&#8217;s administration.

Chuck Schumer Says If 'TACO Trump' Is Already Folding On Iran The American People Need To Know: 'One Day, He Sounds Tough, The Next Day He's Backing Off'

Salesforce (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>) <a href="https://www.salesforce.com/news/press-releases/2025/05/27/salesforce-signs-definitive-agreement-to-acquire-informatica/">announced</a> Tuesday that it will acquire Informatica (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INFA#NYSE">INFA</a>) in a cash deal valued at approximately $8 billion. The acquisition underscores Salesforce's intent to bolster its artificial intelligence capabilities by integrating a core player in enterprise data management.
Under the terms of the deal, holders of Informatica's Class A and Class B-1 common stock will receive $25 per share — an 11% premium over the company's closing price of $22.55 on Friday, <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/05/27/salesforce-acquires-informatica-for-8-billion/">TechCrunch</a> reported.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Informatica: &#8216;The Plumbing For AI&#8217;</h2>
Informatica CEO Amit Walia framed the acquisition as a shared effort to bring data and AI to life, describing Informatica in a statement as the plumbing for AI and data. Informatica's Intelligent Data Management Cloud platform helps enterprises connect, manage, and unify complex data systems across multi-cloud and hybrid environments.
"Joining forces with Salesforce represents a significant leap forward in our journey," Walia said in a statement on Tuesday. "We have a shared vision for how we can help organizations harness the full value of their data in the AI era."
Steve Fisher, Salesforce's chief technology officer, said that the truly autonomous, trustworthy AI agents need the most comprehensive understanding of their data, adding that Informatica's metadata and catalog tools will complement Salesforce's agentic AI platform, Agentforce.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Strategic Rationale: Building A Foundation For Agentic AI</h2>
The acquisition builds on Salesforce's previous investments in data and AI. It follows the company's multibillion-dollar acquisitions of Slack at $27.7 billion in 2021, Tableau at $15.7 billion in 2019, and MuleSoft at $6.5 billion in 2018.&nbsp;
According to Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff, Informatica will be integrated alongside Data Cloud, Tableau, and MuleSoft to enable autonomous agents to deliver smarter, safer, and more scalable outcomes for every company.
Salesforce&#8217;s operating and financial chief Robin Washington said the company will move quickly to leverage Informatica's capabilities across public sector, life sciences, healthcare, and financial services verticals, where governed, trustworthy data is critical.
The deal is expected to close in early fiscal 2027, pending regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">From Buyout To Buy-In</h2>
Informatica was taken private in 2015 through a $5.3 billion deal led by private-equity firm Permira and the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board. Informatica says it serves more than 5,000 customers across nearly 100 countries, including over 80 of the Fortune 100, according to its acquisition announcement.
The transaction will be financed through a combination of Salesforce's cash and new debt, the company said in the announcement.&nbsp;

Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning Morgan Stanley Stock In The Last 10 Years

Warren Buffett's investment in Coca-Cola Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KO#NYSE">KO</a>) is a master class in patient, long-term investing — and it pays him handsomely <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42115069/warren-buffett-is-set-to-collect-776-million-in-coca-cola-dividends-but-daughter-says-his-wife-buys-him-the-soda-on-sale">every single day.</a>
What To Know: In 1988, Buffett began buying shares of Coca-Cola in the aftermath of the 1987 stock market crash and ultimately amassed 400 million shares through his company Berkshire Hathaway, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>). 
The company's stake in Coca-Cola represents more than 10% of Berkshire&#8217;s portfolio and about 8% of Coca-Cola's outstanding shares.

Fast forward to 2025, and those 400 million shares are worth over $25 billion — but the real magic is in the dividends. 
Coca-Cola pays shareholders a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/KO/dividends"> quarterly dividend</a> of 51 cents per share, amounting to $2.04 per share annually. Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway is set to earn $816 million in Coca-Cola dividends in 2025.&nbsp;
Broken down, that's about $2.23 million flowing into Berkshire's coffers every single day, or nearly $93,000 per hour.&nbsp;
What Else: Buffett is well known for drinking Coke and has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/43341020/warren-buffett-would-give-up-a-year-of-his-life-to-eat-whatever-he-wants-his-daughter-confirms-he-still-gets-daily-mcdonalds-breakfast-at-94">said he drinks</a> about five cans a day, even at age 94.&nbsp;
In 2015, he joked to Fortune, &#8220;I&#8217;m one-quarter Coca-Cola,&#8221; admitting that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/09/40971688/warren-buffett-owns-28b-in-coca-cola-stock-and-drinks-5-cans-a-day-i-dont-think-the-prostate-can">the drink accounts</a> for 25% of his daily calorie intake.&nbsp;
As he famously quipped, "If you aren't willing to own a stock for 10 years, don't even think about owning it for 10 minutes." 
For Buffett, Coca-Cola has been a sweet investment — one that pays, quite literally, every single day.

When it comes to personal finance, Kevin O&#8217;Leary isn&#8217;t sugarcoating anything. The &#8220;Shark Tank&#8221; investor is once again calling out high-interest <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44889438/survey-unveils-american-misconceptions-about-credit-card-debt-management">credit card debt</a> and urging people to make getting out of it a top priority.

</ul>
In an interview clip shared with the post, he went further: &#8220;You should pay off your balance there and then retire all your debt and start saving, even if you&#8217;re 30 or 40. You&#8217;d be amazed the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/05/45490762/charlie-munger-once-said-the-first-rule-of-compounding-is-to-never-interrupt-it-unnecessarily-now-his-wisdom-rings-true-as-the-sp-500-surges-220-over-10-years">power of compounding interest</a> over even a decade. It&#8217;s never too late. The key to life is stay out of debt.&#8221;
O&#8217;Leary also said credit card debt &#8220;comes out of nowhere and bites you&#8221; when you&#8217;re not ready. He called it &#8220;the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43424608/21-interest-rates-youve-got-to-be-kidding-me-kevin-oleary-slams-credit-card-debt-as-the-real-silent-killer-in-america">real silent killer</a> in America&#8221; in a separate <a href="https://x.com/kevinolearytv/status/1883537883501310043">interview</a> with WNYW-TV&#8217;s &#8220;Good Day New York,&#8221; emphasizing that most people don&#8217;t even realize how much they&#8217;re overspending.
His advice is to keep it simple: &#8220;Take a piece of paper, you don't need a computer, write down the money you made in 90 days and how much you spent during that same period.&#8221;
Trending: Maximize saving for your retirement and cut down on taxes: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/wideradvisor-retirement-planning">Schedule your free call with a financial advisor to start your financial journey – no cost, no obligation</a>.&nbsp;
The reality for many, he says, is that they&#8217;re spending more than they earn. And what makes up the gap? Credit cards, with interest rates now averaging around 21%.
U.S. consumers hold $1.18 trillion in credit card debt in Q1, according to the <a href="https://www.newyorkfed.org/microeconomics/hhdc">Federal Reserve Bank of New York</a>. Balances fell by $29 billion from the previous quarter.
Billionaire Mark Cuban <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/05/39092288/if-you-use-your-credit-card-you-do-not-want-to-be-rich-warns-mark-cuban-on-the-dave-ramsey-show">shares the same view</a>. &#8220;If you use your credit cards, you do not want to be rich,&#8221; he told Dave Ramsey on &#8220;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KA0IUaoXSew">The Ramsey Show</a>.&#8221; Cuban suggests paying them off and getting rid of them completely. &#8220;If you pay that down you just earned 15 or 20%,&#8221; he said.

O&#8217;Leary insists it comes down to buying only what you can truly afford. He used his watches as an example: &#8220;This is a priceless Rolex&#8230; probably worth $150,000.

Electric vehicle leader Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is continuing to see large declines in deliveries in many territories around the world, with data from Europe <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/eurozone/25/05/45616006/teslas-european-woes-see-no-end-april-sales-crash-49-as-rivals-race-ahead-in-ev-market">looking particularly bad.</a>
What Happened: Items such as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/44937440/tesla-q1-misses-estimates-as-tariff-pressures-weigh-on-outlook-lower-cost-evs-still-on-track">tariffs and macroeconomic concerns</a> could hurt Tesla's delivery figures in the U.S. and other parts of the world.
Europe might be the market Tesla is struggling with the most, which comes as other competitors are outperforming it. The Elon Musk-led company also suffered brand damage in 2024 and 2025 due to the CEO's political involvement in several countries&#8217; <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/elon-musk/elon-musk-boosting-far-right-politics-globe-rcna189505">elections</a>.
A new report shared by <a href="https://electrek.co/2025/06/02/tesla-sales-crash-france-even-with-new-model-y/">Electrek </a>said Tesla's deliveries in France were 721 units in May. This figure was down 67% year-over-year and is the lowest for the country in over three years.
The overall automotive market was down 12% year-over-year for France in May, but companies outside of Tesla saw much better results.
The report on the struggles in France comes as a recent ACEA report said Tesla's European sales were down 49% year-over-year in April.

Why It's Important: Musk insisted that Tesla has "no demand problem" and everything is going fine. Recent delivery reports for regions around the world suggest otherwise and could put second-quarter deliveries in the spotlight.
Tesla placed a portion of its weaker sales blame on the Model Y changeover. May sales for Tesla in France were lower than any month in the first quarter, when the Model Y changeover was happening. With the changeover now complete in some parts of the world, weak second-quarter data shows that this may not have been the reason for weaker demand.
While France represents only one market for Tesla, the May data is bad and could be another negative for second-quarter deliveries and financial results.
TSLA Price Action: Tesla stock closed Monday down 1.09% to $342.69 versus a 52-week trading range of $167.42 to $488.54. Tesla stock is down around 15% year-to-date in 2025.
