Hertz Global And Webull Stocks Are Among Top Mid-Cap Gainers Last Week (Apr 14-Apr 18): Are The Others In Your Portfolio?

Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) CEO Jensen Huang continued his high-level tour in China with a meeting in Shanghai on Friday, following discussions with central government <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44858727/jensen-huang-in-china-for-talks-as-us-tightens-nvidia-chip-restrictions-report" rel="noreferrer noopener">officials in Beijing a day earlier</a>.
The visit comes amid tightening U.S. restrictions on chip exports to China, which have created headwinds for American semiconductor firms.
Huang&#8217;s two-day itinerary included a sit-down with He Lifeng, China&#8217;s vice-premier overseeing trade relations with the U.S., in a move widely interpreted by Chinese media as a sign of Nvidia&#8217;s long-term commitment to the region, South China Morning Post <a target="_blank" href="https://www.scmp.com/news/china/diplomacy/article/3307168/nvidia-boss-jensen-huang-meets-shanghai-mayor-wake-new-us-export-controls-chips" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.

On Friday, Shanghai Mayor Gong Zheng welcomed Huang, highlighting the city&#8217;s investor-friendly policies and industrial strength.
Huang, in turn, called Shanghai a vital part of Nvidia&#8217;s global research and development footprint, citing the city&#8217;s market scale, sophisticated client base, and mature tech ecosystem as core advantages, the report adds.
Huang emphasized the transformative potential of artificial intelligence, advocating for stronger global cooperation to harness its benefits.
He reiterated Nvidia&#8217;s intention to maintain robust ties with Chinese partners and encouraged cross-border collaboration to drive innovation and prosperity.
The visit comes at a pivotal moment for Nvidia.
The company&#8217;s stock has slipped nearly 25% over the last quarter. Meanwhile, the U.S. government recently announced that Nvidia would require a special license to export its H20 chips—products specifically tailored for China under prior export rules.
The new restriction could cost the company an estimated $5.5 billion in lost sales, South China Morning Post adds.
Chinese tech companies, which rely heavily on GPUs like Nvidia&#8217;s for AI training, have been ramping up infrastructure to support domestic AI development.
After the unveiling of a low-cost AI model by local startup DeepSeek, China has doubled down on building national computing hubs to compete globally.

Nvidia's Jensen Huang Meets Shanghai Mayor Amid Fresh US Chip Curbs

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth lost four key staffers in one day, causing a significant upheaval within the Pentagon.
What Happened: Hegseth&#8217;s Chief of Staff Joe Kasper is set to leave his position in the coming days. Kasper will, however, remain within the agency. Three other Defense aides, who were previously put on leave due to an ongoing leak investigation, were terminated on Friday.
These include senior advisor Dan Caldwell, Deputy Chief of Staff Darin Selnick, and Colin Carroll, the chief of staff to the deputy secretary of Defense. Carroll and Selnick are reportedly planning to sue for wrongful termination, <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2025/04/18/defense-secretary-chief-of-staff-joe-kasper-departure-00299508">reports</a> Politico.
The Pentagon has been grappling with a series of leaks recently, including the disclosure of military plans and intelligence gathering activities. This upheaval comes amidst a scandal involving Hegseth and a group chat&nbsp;on Signal, an encrypted messaging&nbsp;app, where he&nbsp;shared forthcoming plans for airstrikes&nbsp;on Houthi rebel targets in&nbsp;Yemen.
One senior Pentagon official told&nbsp;the outlet that Kasper had clashed&nbsp;with the aides who were fired, indicating a personality clash. Another defense official described the situation as a &#8220;complete meltdown&#8221; reflecting on Hegseth&#8217;s leadership. A third official predicted more chaos to come.

"There is a complete meltdown in the building, and this is really reflecting on the secretary's leadership," the other senior defense official said. "Pete Hegseth has surrounded himself with some people who don't have his interests at heart."
Hegseth was confirmed by the&nbsp;Senate by a narrow margin after facing&nbsp;allegations of rape, smelling of&nbsp;alcohol while working as a&nbsp;Fox News host, and adultery, all of which he denied.
Why It Matters: The sudden departure of four key staffers from the Pentagon, including the Chief of Staff, is a significant event that could potentially disrupt the functioning of the Defense Department. The ongoing leak investigation and the scandal involving Hegseth&#8217;s sharing of sensitive military plans have already put the Pentagon under a spotlight. 
The loss of these staffers, coupled with the potential legal action from the terminated aides, could further escalate the situation. 
The turmoil within the Pentagon could also have implications for national security, given the department&#8217;s crucial role in defense and intelligence. The situation warrants close monitoring in the coming days.

'There Is Complete Meltdown in the Building': Defense Secretary Loses Four Key Staffers in a Single Day

Kevin O&#8217;Leary, the investor perhaps best known for his sharp takes on ABC&#8217;s &#8220;Shark Tank,&#8221; is betting big on North Dakota. And he believes the state is poised to take the top spot in America for wealth per person.
&#8220;I believe that the people of North Dakota are the Norwegians of America because their net worth per capita is going to be No. 1 in the U.S. soon,&#8221; O&#8217;Leary recently <a href="https://x.com/kevinolearytv/status/1912661740992844103">posted</a> on X. &#8220;They have so much wealth in the ground and there are only 750,000 of them!&#8221;

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">From Shark Tank to Statewide Investments</h2>
O&#8217;Leary&#8217;s confidence isn't just talk. Through his Wonder Fund North Dakota, he&#8217;s managing a $45 million investment initiative focused on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-invest-in-startups">early-stage companies</a>, according to the O&#8217;Leary Ventures <a href="https://olearyventures.com/north-dakota/">website</a>. The fund is part of the State Small Business Credit Initiative and aims to unlock even more private capital for local startups.
O&#8217;Leary&#8217;s North Dakota journey began nearly a decade ago with an $80,000 investment in Fargo-based PRx Performance—one of the most successful pitches in Shark Tank history. &#8220;That really opened me up to the possibilities of what we can do in Fargo, Bismarck, and everywhere else in North Dakota,&#8221; O&#8217;Leary told <a href="https://fargoinc.com/mr-wonderful-sees-big-things-in-north-dakota/">Fargo INC!</a> in 2023.
But O&#8217;Leary says the real draw is the state's business-friendly environment. &#8220;I would never do a fund like this in New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, or California,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Those states are uninvestable&#8230; North Dakota is very competitive, particularly now.&#8221;
Trending: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-in-the-midwest-why-multifamily-real-estate-is-a-winning-strategy">This investment company boasts a 33.85% internal rate of return (IRR) for its realized projects, allowing accredited investors to earn passive returns and avoid the headaches of being a landlord.</a>
He credits the state's pro-business policies, remote work advantages, and stable government as key factors in attracting capital. &#8220;This is a golden period for North Dakota, it really is,&#8221; O&#8217;Leary told Fargo INC!. &#8220;It's going to come out swinging as a competitive state. It's no longer just Texas or Florida anymore.&#8221;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Wonder Fund: Where the Money&#8217;s Going</h2>
The Wonder Fund is multisector but focused on tech, agriculture, agtech, land, and energy—especially projects that sequester carbon. O&#8217;Leary says the goal is not only to invest state money wisely, but also to attract 10 to 30 times more capital alongside it.
Transparency is also a major part of the strategy. The fund gives state officials real-time access to detailed data on every investment. &#8220;As a fiduciary, I feel the best thing to do is to shine a light on everything,&#8221; O&#8217;Leary said.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Legacy Fund Connection</h2>
O&#8217;Leary&#8217;s optimism ties into the broader financial foundation being built in North Dakota. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43579036/the-worlds-largest-1-7-trillion-sovereign-wealth-fund-holds-key-lessons-for-trump-and-the-u-s-will-they-listen">Just like in Norway</a>, the state's $11 billion Legacy Fund, a sovereign wealth fund backed by oil and gas tax revenue, is designed for long-term prosperity.
With the 2024 passage of Measure No. 3, the fund became even more future-focused. Lawmakers can now access only 5% of the fund's principal during each two-year budget cycle, down from 15%. This means more of the fund can be invested long-term, with a projected $30 million boost in earnings in just the first year.
&#8220;The Legacy Fund was created to provide financial stability and deliver sustained economic benefits for North Dakotans,&#8221; said state Rep. Glenn Bosch, vice chair of the Legacy and Budget Stabilization Fund Advisory Board.
According to the Retirement and Investment Office <a href="https://www.rio.nd.gov/news/north-dakotas-legacy-fund-sovereign-wealth-fund-designed-long-term-prosperity">website</a>, the fund has already transferred more than $1.8 billion to the general fund over the last three budget periods, helping fund infrastructure, tax relief, and other projects. Another $601 million is set to transfer in June.

These Large Cap Tech And Healthcare Stocks Had A Poor Run In Easter Week (Apr 14-Apr 18): Are These In Your Portfolio?

In the face of economic uncertainty, President Donald Trump&#8216;s approval rating <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43756824/market-instability-looms-in-trumps-second-term-warns-paul-tudor-jones-theres-no-room-for-mistakes">stands at 45%</a> in a new Gallup poll.
What Happened: Trump&#8217;s approval rating of 45% in the first quarter of his second term compates to the 41% approval rating he garnered one quarter into his first term. The average first-quarter approval rating for U.S. presidents from 1952 to 2020 stands at 60%.
An Economist/YouGov <a href="https://d3nkl3psvxxpe9.cloudfront.net/documents/econtoplines_vK1VgIr.pdf">poll</a> at 42%, down 16 points from when he took office in January.
Earlier in the month, Trump declared a 10%&nbsp;baseline tax on nearly all&nbsp;imports and higher reciprocal tariffs&nbsp;on a variety of nations. The objective of these measures is to trigger&nbsp;an American financial and manufacturing&nbsp;surge.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43769836/trump-gains-trust-of-majority-on-americans-on-immigration-and-economy">Trump Gains Trust Of Majority Of Americans On Immigration, Economy</a>
Despite these economic strains, Republicans seem hopeful about Trump&#8217;s economic plan. However, less&nbsp;than half of U.S. adults&nbsp;express confidence in the president&#8217;s ability to benefit the economy, as per the Gallup poll. 
The survey also disclosed that the confidence in Trump&#8217;s economic measures echoes&nbsp;the statistics from his first&nbsp;term.
Why It Matters: The rise in Trump&#8217;s approval rating amidst economic uncertainty is noteworthy. The president&#8217;s recent tariff announcement and its potential impact on the economy have been a major talking point. Yet, the increase in approval rating suggests a significant portion of the public supports his economic measures. 
This could have far-reaching implications for future economic policies and the political landscape. The Gallup poll&#8217;s revelation that confidence in Trump&#8217;s economic measures mirrors his first term statistics further underscores this point. 
It will be interesting to see how this plays out in the coming months.

Trump's Gallup Approval Stands at 45%, Topping Same Point in First Presidency, But He's Down 16 in Economist Survey

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has accused Russia of violating its declared Easter ceasefire, citing continued military activities.
What Happened: Zelenskyy revealed that Russian forces were persisting in their efforts to advance and inflict damage on Ukraine, despite Moscow&#8217;s ceasefire declaration. 
He accused Russia of attempting to fabricate an &#8220;impression&#8221; of a ceasefire, with 59 instances of Russian shelling and five assaults by Russian units already reported.
&#8220;Across various frontline directions, there have already been 59 cases of Russian shelling and 5 assaults by Russian units,&#8221; Zelenskyy wrote on X.

During a Kremlin meeting on Saturday, Russian President&nbsp;Vladimir Putin&nbsp;had proclaimed a cessation of all military operations from Saturday evening to Monday midnight, Moscow time.

The Russian Foreign Ministry, in a Telegram post, claimed that this decision was driven by &#8220;humanitarian motives.&#8221;
However, Zelenskyy, through&nbsp;a series of social media&nbsp;updates, voiced doubt over Russia&#8217;s ceasefire intentions, asserting that Russian attacks had not ceased. He also reiterated his demand for the&nbsp;truce to be extended to&nbsp;30 days, stating that Ukraine would respond based on&nbsp;the actual situation on the&nbsp;ground.
This development comes after US President&nbsp;Donald Trump&#8216;s statement on Friday, where he expressed hesitance to mediate&nbsp;a peace deal between the&nbsp;two sides if either party proves difficult.
Why It Matters: The ongoing conflict in Ukraine has drawn international attention and concern. The skepticism expressed by Zelenskyy over Russia&#8217;s declared truce highlights the complexities and challenges in resolving this conflict. 
The Ukrainian President&#8217;s call for an extended truce underscores the urgency for a lasting solution. Meanwhile, the reluctance of the US to mediate if either party proves difficult, further complicates the path to peace. 
This situation remains fluid, with global implications hinging on the actions of the involved parties.

Ukraine's Zelenskyy Accuses Russia of Violating Easter Truce: 'There Have Already Been 59 Cases of Russian Shelling'

The past week has been a rollercoaster ride in the tech and auto industry. From&nbsp;Tesla Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) deploying its Full Self-Driving (FSD) technology at Giga Texas to autonomous trucking startup Kodiak Robotics announcing its SPAC merger, there&#8217;s a lot to catch up on.
Let&#8217;s dive into the top stories of the week.

In The Holiday Shortened Easter Week, These Large-Cap Stock Were Top Performers (Apr 14-Apr 18): Are These In Your Portfolio?

If you or someone you know is paying back <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43622327/u-s-student-loan-debt-hits-2-19-trillion-heres-why-experts-say-borrowers-shouldnt-panic-yet">federal student loans</a> under an income-driven repayment plan, especially as part of a married household, there are some important changes underway that could affect how monthly payments are calculated. These changes come as part of a broader legal battle involving the U.S. Department of Education and a national teachers union.
Here's what's happening — and what it could mean for your budget.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What Are IDR Plans, and Why Do They Matter?</h2>
Income-driven repayment plans are a set of programs that base a borrower's monthly federal student loan payment on their income and family size, rather than the total amount owed. The main plans include Income-Contingent Repayment (ICR), Income-Based Repayment (IBR), Pay As You Earn (PAYE), and Saving on a Valuable Education (SAVE), a newer plan introduced under the Biden administration.

<li>The average American couple has saved this much money for retirement —<a href="http://www.benzinga.com/money/smartasset"> How do you compare</a>?</li>
</ul>
Borrowers on IDR plans may qualify for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44778031/she-was-29-months-from-erasing-247k-in-student-debt-now-her-forgiveness-is-frozen">student loan forgiveness</a> after 20 or 25 years of payments. These plans are especially useful for borrowers with high debt and relatively modest incomes.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Confusion Over Married Borrowers</h2>
A recent legal filing suggested that the Trump administration intended to change how spousal income is treated under IDR plans. According to <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/adamminsky/2025/04/12/student-loan-payments-may-skyrocket-next-month-for-married-borrowers-suggests-trump-administration/">Forbes</a>, a Department of Education official stated that, beginning in May, the government would start counting spousal income when calculating monthly payments for married borrowers — even if those borrowers file taxes separately or are separated from their spouse.
That would be a big shift. Under current law, borrowers who file taxes separately can have their payments calculated based solely on their own income. Many married borrowers choose to file separately for this reason, even though it often means losing out on tax deductions.
If the proposed change had gone into effect, many married borrowers might have faced significantly higher payments, on top of higher tax bills.
Trending: BlackRock is calling 2025 the year of alternative assets. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">One firm from NYC has quietly built a group of 60,000+ investors who have all joined in on an alt asset class previously exclusive to billionaires like Bezos and Gates.</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Walk-Back and Temporary Clarity</h2>
Just days after the statement raised alarms, the Department of Education reversed course. In an <a href="https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.dcd.278527/gov.uscourts.dcd.278527.30.2.pdf">updated court filing</a> on April 15, the agency clarified that for ICR, IBR, and PAYE plans, spousal income will not be included when a borrower files taxes separately or is legally separated.
This reversal means that, at least for now, the rules stay the same: married borrowers who file separately can still qualify for IDR payments based only on their own income. That's a relief for millions who were bracing for a sudden increase in their monthly bills.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why This Is Still a Developing Story</h2>
The situation is unfolding as part of an ongoing lawsuit brought by the American Federation of Teachers. The union sued the Department of Education in March after the agency temporarily shut down the IDR system in response to a court ruling that blocked the SAVE plan.
Although access to IDR applications has been restored, the department has yet to fully resume processing them. A hearing is scheduled soon to determine whether the court will order the department to restart full services.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What Borrowers Can Do Now</h2>
If you're a married borrower on an IDR plan or planning to apply for one, continue to monitor official updates from the Department of Education. Filing taxes separately is still a valid strategy for keeping your student loan payments lower — but keep in mind that policy changes are still possible depending on the outcome of the lawsuit.
In the meantime, stay informed, talk to a student loan advisor if needed, and consider how <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-file-your-own-taxes">different tax filing strategies</a> could impact your repayment plan.

Apple's Week Of Tariffs, iPhone Stockpile, Stock Slides, And More: This Week In Appleverse

The past week has been a rollercoaster ride for investors, with significant developments in the global financial markets. From the looming threat of delisting for US-listed Chinese stocks to China&#8217;s drastic cut in US oil imports, the escalating trade tensions between the US and China have been a major driving force.
Meanwhile, President Trump&#8217;s proposed tariffs continue to stir debate, and his recent threats against Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell have added another layer of uncertainty. Amid all this, Charles Schwab has some advice for investors.
Let&#8217;s dive into the details.
US-Listed Chinese Stocks Face Delisting Threat
Investors holding US-listed Chinese stocks such as&nbsp;Alibaba Group Holding Ltd,&nbsp;JD.com Inc. could soon face serious liquidity risks. The threat of delisting due to geopolitical and regulatory frictions between Washington and Beijing is mounting.

China Slashes US Oil Imports
As US-China trade tensions continue to escalate, Chinese refiners have cut their U.S. oil imports by roughly 90% since 2023, according to Vortexa Ltd. data. Meanwhile, imports of Canadian crude have reached record highs.

Trump Tariffs May Not Ignite Inflation
Despite fears that President Trump&#8217;s proposed tariffs could reignite inflation, Yardeni Research President Ed Yardeni suggests the reality may be far less alarming. He believes investors and consumers might be overstating the inflationary consequences of what he dubbed Trump&#8217;s &#8220;Nitro Tariffs,&#8221; or TNT.

The 52-week range of Verizon stock price was $37.59 to $47.36.
Verizon's dividend yield is 6.12%. It paid $2.71 per share in dividends during the last 12 months.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Latest On Verizon</h2>
On Jan. 24, the company announced its Q4 2024 earnings, posting revenues of $35.70 billion, up 1.6% year-over-year, and topping the analyst consensus estimate of $35.32 billion, as reported by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43189382/verizon-q4-earnings-revenue-beat-1-million-mobile-and-broadband-subscriber-adds-business-segment-margin-expands">Benzinga</a>.&nbsp;
Adjusted EPS of $1.10 was in line with expectations. Total wireless service revenue was $20 billion, up 3.1% year-over-year, driven by pricing actions and growth from fixed wireless connections.
Verizon expects full-year 2025 wireless service revenue growth in the range of 2.0% to 2.8%. It projects an adjusted EPS of $4.59 to $4.73, compared to the consensus of $4.71.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How Can You Earn $100 Per Month As A Verizon Investor?</h2>
If you want to make $100 per month — $1,200 annually — from Verizon dividends, your investment value needs to be approximately $19,608, which is around 443 shares at $44.30 each.&nbsp;
Understanding the dividend yield calculations: When making an estimate, you need two key variables — the desired annual income ($1,200) and the dividend yield (6.12% in this case). So, $1,200 / 0.0612 = $19,608 to generate an income of $100 per month.
You can calculate the dividend yield by dividing the annual dividend payments by the current price of the stock.
The dividend yield can change over time. This is the outcome of fluctuating stock prices and dividend payments on a rolling basis.

For instance, assume a stock that pays $2 as an annual dividend is priced at $50. Its dividend yield would be $2/$50 = 4%. If the stock price rises to $60, the dividend yield drops to 3.33% ($2/$60). A drop in stock price to $40 will have an inverse effect and increase the dividend yield to 5% ($2/$40).
In summary, income-focused investors may find Verizon stock an attractive option for making a steady income of $100 per month by owning 443 shares of stock. There may be more upside to come as investors benefit from the company's consistent dividend hikes. Verizon has raised its dividend consecutively for the last 18 years.&nbsp;

The investor, who is nearly 40 years old, shared on Reddit that he began his journey at 20 but only started taking investing seriously in his mid-20s. His early contributions were modest, around $20 to $50 a month, but over time, he increased his monthly investments to an average of $300, and now invests approximately $2,000 to $2,500 monthly.
Despite market volatility, he said he&#8217;s focused on the long game: &#8220;It's hard to see my portfolio plummeting, but I then remember myself I'm playing a long game. I'm not in a hurry, the administration will change and markets will become green eventually. They did in the past every single time.&#8221;

From $50 A Month To $1M Portfolio — Investor Shares Top 10 Holdings, Says 'Finally Reached $1M!' Thanks To Relentless Discipline

Larry Fink is throwing the investment world a curveball—or maybe just a long-overdue update.
In his <a href="https://www.blackrock.com/corporate/investor-relations/larry-fink-annual-chairmans-letter">annual letter</a> to BlackRock shareholders, the firm's CEO suggests it might be time to retire the old-school 60/40 portfolio. That's the classic mix of 60% stocks and 40% bonds that's guided generations of investors since Nobel Prize-winning economists Harry Markowitz and Bill Sharpe laid the groundwork with Modern Portfolio Theory. But according to Fink, what once passed as "true diversification" might no longer cut it.
"The future standard portfolio may look more like 50/30/20," Fink writes, pointing to a mix of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44762412/the-economy-is-weakening-as-we-speak-blackrock-ceo-larry-fink-says-its-more-of-a-buying-opportunity-but-market-could-drop-another-20">50% stocks</a>, 30% bonds, and 20% private market assets—such as infrastructure, real estate, and private credit.

Why the shift? Because <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/04/44672506/blackrock-ceo-larry-fink-warns-many-already-believe-the-us-is-in-a-recession">the world has changed</a>.
Markets have evolved. Inflation won't stay silent. And bonds? Not the safe haven they once were. Fink argues that while private assets come with their own risks, they offer benefits that public markets can't always match—namely inflation protection, stability, and historically higher returns. "The appeal is clear," he wrote.
The case for infrastructure is especially compelling. Toll roads, utilities, and other revenue-generating infrastructure assets typically adjust with inflation. They're also less volatile than traditional stocks and bonds—something today's nervous investors won't overlook. As the chart in Fink's letter shows, portfolios that included infrastructure not only had better returns but also lower volatility.
Trending: BlackRock is calling 2025 the year of alternative assets. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">One firm from NYC has quietly built a group of 60,000+ investors who have all joined in on an alt asset class previously exclusive to billionaires like Bezos and Gates.</a>
Take a traditional 60/40 model portfolio, for example. With the addition of infrastructure, annualized returns moved higher, while volatility dropped. The same thing happened with pension portfolios. That's the bump—more return, less stress.
But there's a catch.
As Fink points out, the industry isn't built for a 50/30/20 world. Most asset managers still live in the 50/30 public market zone, while private market firms control the 20% piece. For individual investors, crossing into that private territory is tough. Even those with enough money to qualify might only have enough to invest in one fund—putting a fifth of their portfolio in a single vehicle. And that's not real diversification.
Fink believes BlackRock can fix that.

Just as it bridged the divide between index and active investing back in 2009 with its acquisition of Barclays Global Investors – the firm behind iShares ETFs – BlackRock is now working to unify public and private markets. In October, it took a major step in that direction by acquiring Global Infrastructure Partners. Two more acquisitions are expected to follow.
The 2009 move wasn't just about betting on ETFs. It was about giving investors the flexibility to combine strategies—to blend low-cost index funds with actively managed products. "Every investing decision is active," Fink noted, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/44016490/21-year-old-pro-investor-challenges-dave-ramsey-show-hosts-on-index-funds-vs-mutual-funds-80-of-mutual-funds-dont-beat-the-market">even choosing an index</a>. Since then, BlackRock says it's helped investors save over $642 million in fees while giving them more control.
Now, Fink sees the same chance to shake up investing all over again. His message? The old playbook's getting stale—it's time for an upgrade.
Whether the 50/30/20 mix <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/04/44672506/blackrock-ceo-larry-fink-warns-many-already-believe-the-us-is-in-a-recession">becomes the new gold standard</a> remains to be seen—but Fink's not waiting to find out. He's already building the bridge.

'The Appeal Is Clear' — Billionaire BlackRock CEO Larry Fink Says New 50/30/20 Portfolio Mix May Replace The 60/40 Standard

Most 19-year-olds don't walk away from a future fortune. But Peter Buffett isn't most people. The youngest <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44574657/billionaire-warren-buffetts-son-says-everyone-assumes-hes-rich-8-out-of-10-messages-a-day-are-just-people-wanting-something-from-my-dad">son of Warren Buffett </a>took his $90,000 inheritance in the 1970s, cashed out his Berkshire Hathaway stock, and used it to buy himself time—not more stock.&nbsp;
That same stock <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44779863/warren-buffetts-son-sold-his-berkshire-stock-inheritance-to-buy-something-infinitely-more-valuable-than-the-500-million-it-would-be-worth-today">would be worth over $500 million today</a>, but Peter says he has "no regrets" according to his memoir &#8220;Life Is What You Make It.&#8221; And considering what he's doing now, it's clear he never looked back.

Instead of climbing the corporate ladder, Peter <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/12/42496912/warren-buffett-doesnt-believe-college-is-for-everyone-none-of-his-3-kids-finished-if-you-pool-their-credits-you-got-a-degree">dropped out of Stanford</a>, moved to San Francisco, and chased his dream of becoming a composer. After a chance connection with MTV led to jingle work, Peter built a successful career in music, producing albums, scoring films, and building a name of his own. Today, he's spent decades doing things his way—and now he's using that same energy to reshape a town in upstate New York.
Since 2010, Peter and his wife Jennifer have lived in Kingston, New York, where they <a href="https://novofoundation.org/">co-run the NoVo Foundation</a>, one of the largest philanthropic organizations in the world. Backed by Warren Buffett's annual donations of Berkshire stock to his children's foundations, NoVo has quietly poured at least $160 million—and possibly over $250 million—into the region. That's more than <a href="https://kingston-ny.gov/news/?FeedID=3310">Kingston's entire municipal budget</a>.
The couple's vision is bold. Through NoVo, they've launched initiatives that touch every part of life: a local radio station, a health care network, a food co-op, and even their own currency—jokingly dubbed "Buffett Bucks"—meant to support local commerce and keep dollars circulating inside the community.

They've also purchased key properties, like the <a href="https://www.timesunion.com/business/article/Buffett-cash-buys-the-farm-5091809.php">1,500-acre Gill Farm</a>, rebranded as the Hudson Valley Farm Hub, which now trains the next generation of organic farmers. Then there's Tech City, a former IBM site being revived as a cultural and business hub with skateparks, food labs, and artist spaces—part of a proposal called BLUEprint, which is widely expected to win the redevelopment bid. And yes, they kicked it off with a robot-themed dance party.
But not everyone's cheering.
According to reporting from <a href="https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/news/articles/buffett-kingston-sean-cooper">Tablet Magazine back in 2021</a>, residents and past NoVo collaborators have expressed concern over the outsized influence of one private foundation. Some say NoVo's grantmaking feels like a silent contract: take the funds, don't question the source. "They've invested more money than the actual budget of the city of Kingston," one resident told Tablet, "without there being any sort of democratic process."
Still, Peter insists this isn't about control—it's about empowerment. He's said the goal isn't to dictate how the community should evolve, but to support ideas that might not happen otherwise.
Whether it's visionary or problematic—or both—<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44316684/warren-buffett-said-bad-news-is-an-investors-best-friend-and-if-youre-not-ready-for-stocks-to-drop-50-you-shouldnt-be-investing">there's no denying the scale</a>. What started as a $90,000 inheritance has turned into a multimillion-dollar reinvention of an entire town. And in classic Buffett fashion, it's all been done with long-term thinking and a focus on value.
