Major indexes are higher, with chip stocks rising to begin 2025.

Nio Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NIO#NYSE">NIO</a>) closed 2024 with a bang, delivering a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/42758569">record-breaking 31,138 vehicles</a> in December — a staggering 72.9% year-over-year jump. 
Quarterly deliveries hit an all-time high of 72,689, while annual deliveries climbed to 221,970, marking a 38.7% surge from the previous year.
Yet, Nio stock&#8217;s technicals paint a less rosy picture.

Nio stock recently formed a dreaded <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/death-cross">Death Cross</a> — a bearish technical signal where the 50-day moving average dips below the 200-day moving average. Despite posting a 7.57% gain during the early hours of trading on Thursday and a 6.59% increase over the past month, NIO stock&#8217;s overall trend remains bleak.
Trading at $4.62, the stock lags behind its medium- and long-term moving averages, signaling persistent selling pressure.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Tale Of Two Trends</h2>
While delivery numbers suggest growth, technical indicators tell a different story. Nio's Relative Strength Index (RSI) sits at 50.32, signaling mild bearish momentum, and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator of a negative 0.1 leans bearish. 
These technical signs raise concerns about whether the stock can sustain its recent upward movement or faces further declines.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What's Next?</h2>
Nio&#8217;s ambitious plans, including the launch of its executive ET9 model and the Firefly brand in early 2025, aim to fuel long-term growth. 
However, with Nio stock down 44.3% over the past year, investors are looking for a decisive break above key resistance levels to regain confidence.
The Death Cross may signal caution for now, but with delivery momentum and product innovation on its side, Nio could surprise skeptics. For now, the market awaits confirmation of whether bulls or bears will dominate the road ahead.

Nio Death Cross Shadows Record Deliveries: Can Bulls Reclaim The Wheel?

Short seller Hindenburg Research is betting against Carvana Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVNA#NYSE">CVNA</a>) with the stock up more than 300% over the past year. Despite the bearish report, shares are moving higher on Thursday. Here&#8217;s a look at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/short-sellers">what you need to know</a>.
What To Know: Hindenburg announced a short position against used car retailer Carvana on Thursday in a <a href="https://hindenburgresearch.com/carvana/">report</a> titled, &#8220;Carvana: A Father-Son Accounting Grift For The Ages.&#8221;
The short seller noted that Carvana shares have soared over the past year on hopes that the worst is behind the company after the car seller battled bankruptcy risks in 2022 and 2023.
&#8220;However, our research, including extensive document review and 49 interviews with industry experts, former Carvana employees, competitors and related parties of the company, undertaken over the course of 4 months, shows Carvana's turnaround is a mirage,&#8221; Hindenburg alleged.
Benzinga has reached out to Carvana for comment on the report.
Check This Out: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/01/42766117/tesla-stock-tumbles-on-q4-deliveries-whats-going-on#google_vignette">Tesla Stock Tumbles On Q4 Deliveries: What&#8217;s Going On?</a>
<a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/cvna">Carvana shares</a> fell about 5% when the report was released, but quickly bounced back. The stock was up more than 3% at last check, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
Hindenburg claimed its research uncovered &#8220;accounting manipulation and lax underwriting&#8221; that have &#8220;fueled temporary reported income growth.&#8221; The short seller said it also found $800 million in loan sales to a &#8220;suspected undisclosed related party.&#8221;
Hindenburg went on to highlight recent insider selling, suggesting the company&#8217;s share price is inflated. All findings aside, the short seller believes the stock is &#8220;exorbitantly valued,&#8221; trading with a 845% higher sales multiple than competitors CarMax and AutoNation, and a 754% higher forward earnings multiple. Carvana currently has a forward price-to-earnings multiple of approximately 101, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
CVNA Price Action: Carvana shares were up 3.37% at $210.20 at the time of publication Thursday, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

The company has announced a rebranding of its division, previously known as &#8216;BlackBerry IoT,&#8217; renaming it &#8216;QNX&#8217; and relaunching the brand to strengthen its presence in the automotive and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/ac42763883/blackberry-unveils-strategic-relaunch-of-qnx-brand-to-reinforce-leadership-in-automotive-and-gene" rel="noreferrer noopener">embedded industries.</a>
The move, which stems from feedback from customers, partners, and employees, marks a milestone in QNX&#8217;s history, emphasizing its role in powering next-generation Software-Defined Vehicles and mission-critical systems.
Acquired by BlackBerry in 2010, QNX has become a prominent player in real-time operating systems. In the last fiscal year, QNX launched the QNX SDP 8.0, a scalable foundation for next-generation automotive and IoT systems, alongside QNX Sound, an audio innovation platform for SDVs, and QNX Everywhere, an initiative designed to spur a more open development environment for QNX technologies.
John J. Giamatteo, CEO of BlackBerry, highlighted that this rebranding is part of the company&#8217;s strategy to increase visibility and leadership in these industries, with a focus on growth and innovation.

The investments we have made over the last three years have set us on a well-defined path to capitalize on these trends,&#8221; said Mattias Eriksson, President, QNX.
To accompany the rebranding, BlackBerry unveiled a refreshed logo, website, and visual identity, which will be showcased at CES 2025 in Las Vegas.

Why Biotechnology Company Carmell Shares Are Rocketing On Thursday

An arctic air blast across the U.S. is driving up heating demand and creating volatile <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/commodities">conditions in energy markets</a>.
What Happened: Natural gas futures bounced back Thursday morning, with February contracts climbing by over 2% to $3.71 per million British units.
According to the National Weather Center (NWC), "Periods of locally heavy coastal rains and higher elevation snow continue for much of the northwestern U.S."
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/42764583/mortgage-rates-soar-to-697-applications-crash-jobless-claims-fall-thursdays-econ-data">Mortgage Rates Soar To 6.97%, Applications Crash, Jobless Claims Fall: Thursday&#8217;s Economic Data</a>
The next two days will see a deluge of rain and snow over the Northwest. The heaviest moisture will target the northern California coast and Oregon today. The NWC highlighted an isolated threat of flash flooding in these areas.
"Accumulating snow is possible over the highest elevations of the Cascades, Sierra and Northern Rockies," the NWC added, noting that snow showers will continue in the Northern and Central Rockies, while rain and snow showers expand across the Northwest on Friday.
The Great Lakes region is bracing for heavy snowfall, with isolated areas expecting accumulations of up to one foot. Snowfall of six to 12 inches is also forecast for parts of the Central Appalachians by Friday.
Why It Matters: Winter weather is driving much of the action, and liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports continue to fuel demand as Natural Gas Intel reported.
Natural gas-related stocks posted notable gains by mid-morning Thursday, reflecting optimism about rising demand and cold-driven volatility in the market.
U.S. natural gas prices — as tracked by the United States Natural Gas Fund LP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNG#NYSE">UNG</a>) — have risen by 15% over the past month.
Pipeline giant ONEOK Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OKE#NYSE">OKE</a>) soared 1.57%, trading at $102.28, while Kinder Morgan Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KMI#NYSE">KMI</a>), a major natural gas transporter, advanced 2% to $27.94.
Shares of NGL Energy Partners LP (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NGL#NYSE">NGL</a>) rose 1.2% to $5.05. It was buoyed by expectations of increased activity in the natural gas infrastructure sector.
What&#8217;s Next: Traders are anxiously awaiting Friday&#8217;s U.S. Energy Information Administration storage report.
Withdrawal estimates for the week ended Dec. 27 range from 77 to 159 billion cubic feet, with an average expectation of 127 Bcf.
If realized, the 127 Bcf draw would erase much of the 166 Bcf surplus left after last week's 93 Bcf withdrawal. For comparison, last year's pull for the same period was just 35 Bcf, while the five-year average is 104 Bcf.

Natural Gas Prices Surge As Arctic Blast Freezes US: 3 Stocks On The Move

Rentals from peer-to-peer car-sharing company Turo were used in the New Year's Day attacks in both Las Vegas <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/01/42756901/10-killed-dozens-hurt-in-new-orleans-terrorist-attack-truck-drives-into-bourbon-street-new-years-crowd">and New Orleans.</a>
Here's a look at how the company is involved and what comes next.
What Happened: Attacks that used vehicles in New Orleans and<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/01/42757028/tesla-cybertruck-ignites-outside-trump-international-hotel-in-las-vegas"> Las Vegas on Wednesday</a> left at least 16 people dead and dozens more injured.
Peer-to-peer car-sharing company Turo, which is often referred to as the Airbnb of vehicles, issued a <a href="https://turo.com/blog/news/an-update-on-todays-incidents-in-new-orleans-and-las-vegas/">statement </a>on the use of Turo rentals in the attacks. 
"It is with a heavy heart that we confirm that this morning's horrific attack in New Orleans and this afternoon's Tesla Cybertruck explosion in Las Vegas both involved vehicles rented on Turo. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families," Turo said in a statement.
Turo said it is working with law enforcement to help the investigations. The company said it does not believe either renter had a "criminal background" that would have flagged them as a security threat. Turo also said there is no evidence at this time that the two attacks are connected.
"We are devastated by these horrible incidents, and remain dedicated to helping the authorities however we can."
In the attack on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, a Ford F-150 Lightning truck was used. In Las Vegas, a Tesla Cybertruck exploded outside the Trump Hotel. Both vehicles are electric pickup trucks.
The owner of the F-150 Lightning recognized his vehicle from news footage of the attack and the license plate, as <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/01/us/turo-new-orleans-attack-vegas-explosion.html">reported </a>by the New York Times. The truck's owner said he rents out five vehicles on Turo for a secondary income source but plans to stop this practice after the attack.

About Turo: The car-sharing company started in 2009 with venture capital backing, seeking to use a model similar to Airbnb to connect consumers with vehicles that were not being used by their owners.
Unlike traditional car rental companies, users on Turo can often find vehicles located in more convenient spots close to home or work instead of having to go to a car rental retail location. The rates and fees can also be cheaper when using Turo, although this can depend on the prices set by vehicle owners themselves on the app.
A November filing, shared by the New York Times, said around 3.5 million people have used Turo to book a vehicle and around 150,000 people have listed their vehicles for rent on the platform.
In order to use the Turo platform, users have to create an account, have a valid driver's license and payment method. Users also have to be 18 years of age in the United States, which is younger than most car rental companies that set the minimum at 20 or 21. Turo also often checks credit history, auto insurance scores and criminal background history and is able to decline rentals and ban users.
Turo users do not need to have their own car insurance to rent a vehicle, as they can select from three protection plans.
In September, Turo <a href="https://turo.com/blog/news/uber-and-turo-partner-to-share-vehicles-on-uber-rent/">announced </a>a partnership with Uber Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>). The partnership gives Uber customers the ability to rent vehicles from Turo directly through the Uber app.
Turo is available in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, France and Australia, according to the company's website.
What's Next: Turo filed paperwork to go public in 2022. It did not go public in 2024 and is one of many companies that mount a 2025 IPO.
Turo is backed by dozens of investors through multiple funding rounds. IAC Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IAC#NASDAQ">IAC</a>) is among the largest investors in the company, with a $250 million investment made in <a href="https://turo.com/blog/news/iac-invests-250-million-in-turo/">2019 </a>at a valuation of $1 billion, helping to make the company the biggest shareholder.
The car-sharing company had revenue of $880 million in 2023, up 18% year-over-year. The company's 2023 profit was $14.7 million, down from $154.7 million in 2022, as <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/what-is-turo-car-rental-app-las-vegas-new-orleans-2025-1">reported </a>by Business Insider.
Insurance bought by the renters on Turo for the vehicles used in the Wednesday attacks and the insurance policies owned by the vehicle owners could become a key topic for Turo in connection with potential liability claims.
The issue of approval of vehicle renters and Turo&#8217;s background check process are also likely to be in the spotlight.

Turo Rentals Used In New Orleans, Las Vegas Attacks: 'We Are Devastated By These Horrible Incidents'

MicroAlgo Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MLGO#NASDAQ">MLGO</a>) shares are trading higher Thursday after the company announced the development of a hybrid <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/n42763951/microalgo-inc-develops-hybrid-classical-quantum-algorithms-to-optimize-multi-query-problems">classical-quantum algorithm.</a>
What To Know: The algorithm addresses Multi-Query Optimization (MQO) problems, which are classified as NP-hard and have applications in fields like database query optimization, machine learning and network routing. The innovation combines the stability of classical computing with the efficiency of quantum computing.
Key aspects of the algorithm include efficient qubit utilization with a reported 99% efficiency, the integration of classical error correction mechanisms to reduce computational error rates, scalability to handle problems of different sizes and compatibility with existing gate-based quantum computers.
MicroAlgo claims its algorithm can effectively handle smaller-scale MQO problems while improving qubit utilization and reducing computational error rates. Experimental evaluations reportedly confirm its performance under current quantum computing limitations.
MLGO Price Action: MicroAlgo shares were up 7.7% at $4.05 at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2">Benzinga pro.</a>
