Baidu (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIDU#NASDAQ">BIDU</a>) CEO Robin Li underscored the significance of ongoing investment in data centers and cloud infrastructure. This emphasis comes despite the cost-effectiveness of AI models like DeepSeek.
What Happened: At the World Government Summit in Dubai, Li highlighted the need for more investment to develop smarter models, reported Reuters. This statement comes amid the recognition of DeepSeek for creating language models that achieve performance comparable to top systems like OpenAI&#8217;s GPT while requiring significantly less computing power.
&#8220;The investment in cloud infrastructure is still very much required. In order to come up with models that are smarter than everyone else, you have to use more compute.&#8221;
Baidu was among the first Chinese companies to launch AI products after OpenAI released ChatGPT in late 2022. However, its large language model, Ernie—which Baidu claims is on par with GPT-4—has struggled to witness widespread public adoption.
Li, recognized for his outspoken views on China&#8217;s AI industry, noted that U.S. chip sanctions have driven Chinese companies to innovate despite computing limitations. He also appeared to take a more flexible stance admitting that open-source methods could speed up AI adoption.
&#8220;You just don&#8217;t know when and where innovations come from,&#8221; he said.

Why It Matters: Baidu is emerging as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/price-target/25/02/43600309/google-faces-rising-ai-rivals-like-baidu-and-yandex-but-analyst-sees-search-and-ad-growth-holding-strong">significant rival in the AI sector</a>, posing a challenge to giants like Google (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>). The limited public adoption of its AI model, Earnie indicates a potential area of growth and investment.
In an internal memo to the staff on the company&#8217;s 25th anniversary in January, Li stated, "While there's been no ‘super app' so far, the penetration ratio of AI is not low and we'll keep seeing exponential growth in 2025,&#8221; <a href="https://www.scmp.com/tech/big-tech/article/3293178/baidu-founder-robin-li-predicts-exponential-boom-ai-apps-2025">reported</a> the South China Morning Post. As the company pushes for AI adoption in the industrial space, Li acknowledged the associated risks in the memo.
Earlier, in January, CNBC&#8217;s Jim Cramer speculated about <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/01/43375128/jim-cramer-wonders-if-baidu-could-be-next-after-alibabas-ai-model-outperforms-deepseek">Baidu being the next Chinese tech giant </a>to gain market attention. This speculation followed Alibaba&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) AI model outperforming DeepSeek in several benchmarks, leading to a surge in Alibaba&#8217;s shares.
Baidu stock price has surged over 10% in the past six months to close at $93.85 yesterday.

Cloud software leader,&nbsp;Salesforce (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRM#NYSE">CRM</a>), has declared its intention&nbsp;to invest $500 million in&nbsp;Saudi Arabia to bolster artificial intelligence (AI) development.
What Happened: Salesforce will roll out Hyperforce, its platform architecture, in Saudi Arabia in a strategic alliance with Amazon Web Services (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>). The company announced that it will collaborate with Capgemini, Deloitte, Globant, IBM (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBM#NASDAQ">IBM</a>) and PwC to expand the use of Agentforce, its customer service agent solution, and introduce Arabic language support for its AI-related product suite.
The announcement was made at the LEAP 2025 global tech event in Saudi Arabia, where the country secured $14.9 billion in fresh AI investments. This initiative aligns with Salesforce&#8217;s broader strategy in the region, which involves setting up a regional headquarters in Riyadh and equipping 30,000 Saudi citizens with new skills by 2030.

Why It Matters:&nbsp;This investment comes on the heels of Salesforce&#8217;s recent strategic moves in the AI sector. Last week,&nbsp;the company cut 1,000 jobs while simultaneously<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43452478/salesforce-cuts-1000-jobs-but-ramps-up-hiring-for-ai-sales-roles"> ramping up hiring for AI sales roles</a>. The company was said to be hiring 2,000 employees for sales roles to promote its artificial intelligence products, as announced by CEO Marc Benioff in December.
This latest investment in Saudi Arabia underscores Salesforce&#8217;s commitment to expanding its AI capabilities and footprint globally. The company is not just focussing on enhancing its AI initiatives but is also concerned about its environmental impact. Yesterday, it launched a tool, AI Energy Score, in partnership with Hugging Face, Cohere, and Carnegie Mellon University, to evaluate the relative energy efficiency of different AI models. Boris Gamazaychikov, Head of AI Sustainability at Salesforce emphasized how important it is have to a standardized approach to measure and disclose such information. 
Meanwhile, Wedbush analyst Dan Ives identified Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) and Salesforce as the leading AI software investments for the year. He stated in a note that 2025 will experience a surge in enterprise consumption, broad adoption of large language models (LLMs), and an expansion of generative AI applications.

Dave Gretta, a business system analyst at the Hut Group and the author of &#8216;Across The Street From Wall Street&#8217; in an X post said, &#8220;No idea why he bought this stock.&#8221; Gretta added that the stock pays a dividend but the investors are better off investing in Treasury bills with higher returns.

The company has a modest dividend yield of 4.20% with a market capitalization of $8.759 billion, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>. Further, Sirius is valued at a forward price-to-earnings ratio of 8.446 as compared to the industry average of 25.750, which makes it over three times less expensive than its peers.
However, Benzinga Pro data suggests that the shares of the company slumped by 58.46% in 2024 and it has fallen by 48.60% over the last year.

Why It Matters: Apart from the decline in 2024, the 18 analysts tracking the company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SIRI/analyst-ratings">according to Benzinga</a> have a consensus &#8216;hold&#8217; rating on the stock.
Most recently, Rosenblatt cut the company&#8217;s target price from $29 to $24 per share on Feb. 3 maintaining a &#8216;neutral&#8217; rating, whereas Barrington Research slashed the price from $30 to $28 apiece on Jan. 31, with an &#8216;outperform&#8217; rating.

Strong cash flow is expected to support debt reduction and increased capital returns. 
Guggenheim lowered its price target to $29 from $30, maintaining a &#8220;buy&#8221; rating on Jan. 31, as reported <a href="https://www.investing.com/news/analyst-ratings/guggenheim-cuts-siriusxm-target-to-29-maintains-buy-rating-93CH-3837323">by</a> Investing.com.

SIRI

Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway Loads Up On Sirius XM Amid Price Target Cuts: Company Pays Dividend 'But Better Off In T-Bills,' Says Expert

Frank Lavin, the former U.S. envoy to Singapore, cautioned that the tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump are &#8220;Punitive&#8221; and could result in job losses in the U.S.
What Happened: Lavin, in his conversation on <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/11/trump-tariffs-are-punitive-former-us-ambassador-to-singapore-says-warns-of-us-job-losses.html">CNBC&#8217;s</a> &#8220;Street Signs Asia,&#8221; highlighted that the tariffs are not just symbolic but will &#8220;cost jobs&#8221; in the U.S. He further pointed out that the auto industry could face significant negative impacts.
"We're in for a bit of bad news in the near term."
Moreover, as Trump pledges a &#8220;reciprocal&#8221; approach to tariffs, Lavin stated that global trade will decline, making it challenging for other nations to respond effectively. Lavin also expressed concerns that the tariffs could create inefficiencies in the economy and drive up inflation, which might prompt the U.S. Federal Reserve to delay rate cuts.

Why It Matters: President Trump&#8217;s push for tariffs has already <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43575460/4-tariff-proof-sectors-to-buy-for-2025">started impacting the financial markets</a>. Mirroring Lavin&#8217;s opinion, Former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers warned that the proposed tariffs would lead to "fewer American jobs, more American inflation, and probably a bigger trade deficit," questioning potential national security benefits from tariffing allies.
Additionally, the Economic Policy Institute stated U.S. exporters will not only lose international markets, but the decline in exports will lead to a surge in the domestic supply of their goods, driving prices down and ultimately lowering corporate profits.
Meanwhile, Wharton finance professor Jeremy Siegel, in a podcast, forecasted that the stock market&#8217;s response would be entirely contingent on the duration of the tariffs. "As long as these tariffs are in effect and are not lowered, it's very hard to see the stock market going up,&#8221; stated Siegel.
Yesterday, the shares of U.S. automakers like General Motors (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) and Lucid Motors (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LCID#NASDAQ">LCID</a>) lost close to 2% amid concerns over a rise in production costs due to the tariffs on metal imports. However, the announcement had a positive impact on the U.S. steelmakers. Cleveland-Cliffs (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLF#NYSE">CLF</a>) surged over 17%, while Nucor (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NUE#NYSE">NUE</a>) climbed 5.5% at the market close yesterday.

Trump's 'Punitive' Tariffs Could Lead To US Job Losses, Warns Former Envoy: 'We're In For A Bit Of Bad News In The Near Term'

Pershing Square Capital CEO Bill Ackman sparked controversy on social media platform X by criticizing the Coca-Cola Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KO#NYSE">KO</a>) and PepsiCo Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PEP#NYSE">PEP</a>) over their marketing practices, comparing them to tobacco companies and linking them to obesity and diabetes concerns.
What Happened: Ackman&#8217;s comments came in response to Cindy Crawford&#8216;s iconic 1992 Pepsi commercial, where he stated, &#8220;This is why we have an obesity crisis in America. She wouldn&#8217;t look like that if she actually drank Pepsi.&#8221; 
He questioned why class action lawyers haven&#8217;t pursued legal action against the beverage giants for what he considers misleading advertising.
Critics quickly pointed out potential contradictions in Ackman&#8217;s stance. Restaurant Brands International Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QSR#NYSE">QSR</a>), the parent company of Burger King, represents <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/24/08/40322250/bill-ackmans-third-largest-holding-faces-bearish-headwinds-despite-tim-hortons-boost">Pershing Square&#8217;s third-largest position</a>.
The firm also holds a significant stake in Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMG#NYSE">CMG</a>). Ross Gerber, CEO of Gerber Kawasaki Wealth and Investment Management, highlighted this apparent disconnect, noting that &#8220;He owns several crap food companies.&#8221;

What Happened: The billionaire investor&#8217;s broader critique extends beyond advertising. Ackman previously argued that both companies have failed to adequately disclose health impacts and have suppressed criticism. He contends that their reported profitability doesn&#8217;t account for societal costs, particularly affecting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/23/01/30252254/is-bill-ackman-hypocrite-for-going-after-pepsico-coca-cola-warren-buffett-fan-highl">lower-income communities and children</a>.
In 2023, Christopher Bloomstran, CIO of Semper Augustus Investments, noted that Pershing&#8217;s top four holdings, which include Lowe&#8217;s Companies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LOW#NYSE">LOW</a>) and Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HLT#NYSE">HLT</a>), all distribute Coca-Cola and PepsiCo products. 
This observation further fueled debate about the consistency of Ackman&#8217;s position on beverage industry practices while maintaining investments in their distribution channels.

The launch series (vehicle with exclusive badging and more that the company intends to make to celebrate the start of production) long-range all-wheel drive variant of the refreshed vehicle is currently listed on Tesla&#8217;s U.S. website alongside the older variants of the vehicle. 
However, other variants of the refreshed vehicle, including the premium Performance variant, will be launched later this year, according to Moravy. 
&#8220;Actually we&#8217;re starting with the launch edition and then all of the other variants the dual motor, base edition rear-wheel drive, performance, and seven-seater options, those will come later in the year,&#8221; Moravy, Vice President of Vehicle Engineering, said in an episode of Jay Leno&#8217;s Garage premiered on YouTube on Monday. 
Tesla commenced production of the refreshed vehicle less than two weeks ago across its four vehicle factories around the world in Califonia, Texas, Shanghai, and Berlin. Deliveries of the vehicle are slated to start in March. 
Why It Matters: Tesla CEO&nbsp;Elon Musk&nbsp;said during the company&#8217;s earnings call last month that the company will&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43328898/elon-musk-warns-teslas-new-model-y-will-result-in-several-weeks-of-lost-production-for-ev-giant-in-q1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">lose production in the days of retooling </a>factories to prepare for production of the refreshed vehicle. 
The CEO also warned that margins will be impacted due to idle capacity and other ramp-related costs. However, these challenges will be overcome once production is ramped, he said.
Model Y is Tesla&#8217;s best-selling vehicle. The refreshed vehicle&#8217;s launch follows the company reporting a fall in vehicle deliveries for the first time in over a decade.
Tesla reported global&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/01/42766117/tesla-stock-tumbles-on-q4-deliveries-whats-going-on" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">deliveries of 1.79 million</a>&nbsp;vehicles in 2024, down from full-year deliveries of 1.81 million in 2023.

Ericsson's New Venture Aduna Forms Partnership With Sinch To Strengthen The Network API Ecosystem

The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed an improvement in the overall market sentiment, while the index moved to the &#8220;Neutral&#8221; zone on Monday.
U.S. stocks settled higher on Monday, with the Nasdaq Composite surging around 1% during the session as investors set aside tariff threats by President Donald Trump. Shares of chipmakers gained on Monday, with Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) adding 2.9% during the session. Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>) and Micron Technology Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MU#NASDAQ">MU</a>) rose 4.5% and 3.9%, respectively, during the session.
Wall Street, meanwhile, recorded losses last week as renewed fears over inflation and trade tariffs eroded risk appetite.
Shares of ON Semiconductor Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ON#NASDAQ">ON</a>) dipped over 8% on Monday after the company posted downbeat quarterly results. Shares of McDonald&#8217;s Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCD#NYSE">MCD</a>) gained around 5% following the release of fourth-quarter results.
On the economic data front, U.S. consumer inflation expectations for the year ahead came in steady for a third straight month at 3% in January.
Most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a positive note, with energy, information technology, and utilities stocks recording gains on Monday. However, financial and utilities stocks bucked the overall market trend, closing the session lower.
The Dow Jones closed higher by around 167 points to 44,470.41 on Monday. The S&amp;P 500 rose 0.67% to 6,066.44, while the Nasdaq Composite gained 0.98% at 19,714.27 during Monday's session.
Investors are awaiting earnings results from The Coca-Cola Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KO#NYSE">KO</a>), Marriott International Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MAR#NASDAQ">MAR</a>), and Gilead Sciences Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GILD#NASDAQ">GILD</a>) today.
What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?
At a current reading of 46.2, the index moved to the &#8220;Neutral&#8221; zone on Monday, versus a prior reading of 38.8.
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.

Shopify Gears Up For Q4 Print; Here Are The Recent Forecast Changes From Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts

Whales collected hundreds of millions of dollars in Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>), capitalizing on the world&#8217;s second-largest cryptocurrency&#8217;s subdued rates.
What Happened: Two substantial Ethereum withdrawals from cryptocurrency exchanges were reported by on-chain tracking platform Lookonchain in a Monday X post.
The first withdrawal involved 56,909 ETH, worth 151.6 million, from Binance, while the second whale accumulated a combined 64,603 ETH, valued at $171.8 million, from Binance and Bitfinex. Both transactions occurred within a 48-hour window.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>

These withdrawals were part of a market-wide phenomenon, as Ethereum recorded net exchange outflows of over $51 million in the last 24 hours, <a href="https://app.intotheblock.com/?end_offset=20">according </a>to data from IntoTheBlock. Typically, when more funds exit exchanges than they enter, it suggests a bullish outlook. 
Additionally, a 16% jump in transactions valued over $100,000 indicated a renewed interest among whale investors in accumulating ETH.

Why It Matters: The accumulation by large investors comes at a time when Wall Street hedge funds <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/02/43586765/wall-streets-ethereum-short-positioning-skyrockets-the-extreme-positioning-has-caused-eth-to-underperform-bitcoin-says-analyst">have been increasingly betting against ETH</a>. A report suggested that the short positioning has surged by 40% in a week&#8217;s time and 500% since November. 
ETH was also the least popular of the three largest cryptocurrencies, <a href="https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=today%201-m&amp;geo=US&amp;q=ethereum,XRP,Bitcoin&amp;hl=en">according </a>to Google Trends data, with Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) and XRP (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/xrp/usd">XRP</a>) generating much higher search interest.
Interestingly, Eric Trump, President Donald Trump&#8217;s son, <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/02/43484922/bitcoin-ethereum-dogecoin-drops-as-trumps-crypto-czar-announces-oversight-committee-eric-trump-says-great-time-to-add-eth">suggested last week on X</a> that "it's a great time to add ETH," potentially influencing decisions of certain players.
Price Action: At the time of writing, Ethereum was exchanging hands at $2,716.83, up 3.25% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA.." target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">data from Benzinga Pro</a>. Year-to-date, the coin has endured losses of over 18%.
