<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

Celebrity interest is also heating up, adding fuel to the narrative.
What Happened: Six-time NBA champion Scottie Pippen joined the crypto conversation with a <a href="https://x.com/ScottiePippen/status/1921317743774593468">post</a> on X, declaring "altcoin season is here." 
He highlighted his focus on Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>), XRP (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/xrp/usd">XRP</a>), Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>), Cardano (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ada/usd">ADA</a>), Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>), Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/shib/usd">SHIB</a>) and Mog Coin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">MOG</a>) and asked Crypto Twitter what else they&#8217;re bullish on.
Pippen's tweet came just as Bitcoin dominance slipped from 64% to 61.5%, marking a 0.8% decline in a single day. 
According to DamiDefi, this drop <a href="https://x.com/DamiDefi/status/1921928635637969101">reflects</a> a rotation of liquidity toward altcoins, especially Ethereum and altcoins.
<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"><a href="https://twitter.com/search?q=%24BTC&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">$BTC</a> dominance goes crashing as liquidity flows into <a href="https://twitter.com/search?q=%24ETH&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">$ETH</a> and altcoins <a href="https://t.co/T3xt5bab41">pic.twitter.com/T3xt5bab41</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Echoing this sentiment, analyst Michael van de Poppe <a href="https://x.com/CryptoMichNL/status/1921920545811259552">pointed</a> to a bearish divergence on the Bitcoin dominance chart, calling it a sign of the altcoin bear market ending. 
Another trader, Niels, <a href="https://x.com/Web3Niels/status/1921913680553238959">sees</a> a BTC dominance drop below 63% pushed altcoins "massively outperforming." 
He pointed out that Ethereum is up 45%, Solana spiked 30%, while many others surged 80%-100%. He believes a macro risk-on environment is reinforcing the altcoin breakout, with momentum clearly shifting in their favor.

Why It Matters: As altcoins gain strength, traders are adjusting their strategies. 
Analyst Miles Deutscher said in his latest <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NbIK4uCu6M">podcast</a> that the trend is clear: &#8220;Long strong alts on pullbacks until the trend has shifted, whilst they&#8217;re still above key high time frame levels.&#8221;
He pegs Bitcoin at $100,000 and Ethereum at $2,000 as crucial levels. 
As long as they remain above these thresholds, Deutscher stays bullish on the further upside. 
Still, he cautions against confusing short-term opportunities with long-term investments:
"I think it&#8217;s a big mistake right now to start loading into or buying or FOMOing into long-term spot just because the market&#8217;s moved," he cautioned, suggesting traders should "treat these shorter-term entries as trades" while maintaining separate strategies for long-term holdings.

Scottie Pippen Declares 'Altcoin Season' As Ethereum, XRP, Dogecoin, Shiba Inu Rally

For many Americans approaching retirement, the idea of claiming Social Security benefits at age 62 is tempting. It offers early access to a steady stream of income and can bring a sense of security during uncertain times. But financial expert Suze Orman says this move is often a costly mistake.
In a recent episode of her "<a href="https://omny.fm/shows/suze-ormans-women-and-money/suze-school-the-actions-you-need-to-take-now-with-your-money">Women &amp; Money</a>" podcast, Orman pulled no punches: "Taking your Social Security payments at 62 is wrong." Here's what she means — and why it may be worth waiting.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Claiming Early Comes at a Cost</h2>
While age 62 is the earliest point you can claim <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/45110258/the-2026-social-security-cola-could-be-the-biggest-in-years-but-inflation-could-still-outpace-your-benefits">Social Security benefits</a>, doing so permanently reduces your monthly payments. Orman reminds listeners that 62 is usually five years before full retirement age, which is between 66 and 67, depending on your birth year.
That early start results in up to a 30% reduction in your monthly benefit — for life. "You are taking a serious hit on it, but that makes you feel more secure," she said. While the idea of receiving money sooner may feel like a safe move, Orman believes many people are letting fear dictate their financial decisions.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Who Benefits When You Claim Early?</h2>
Orman argues that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45265236/80000-more-americans-filed-for-social-security-in-march-compared-with-last-year-whats-driving-this-surge">claiming early</a> often benefits the system more than the retiree. "The more of you that take it at 62, the less they have to pay you later on," she said. In other words, starting benefits early helps save money for Social Security, but may cost retirees tens of thousands of dollars over time.
Trending: Many are using retirement income calculators to check if they&#8217;re on pace —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-do-i-calculate-my-retirement-income-adv"> here&#8217;s a breakdown on what&#8217;s behind this formula.</a>
With concerns about the future of Social Security funding and the state of staffing with offices being shut down, some Americans are rushing to claim benefits out of fear the program will run out or face serious disruptions. But Orman says this is the wrong approach.&nbsp;
"That doesn't mean Social Security is going to collapse," she stated.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">When Taking Benefits Early Might Make Sense</h2>
Orman acknowledges that there are valid reasons to claim Social Security at 62. If you&#8217;re in poor health or have a terminal illness, taking benefits early may be practical. But in most cases, she says waiting is the better option — especially for married couples.
"Most of the time it absolutely makes no sense at all taking Social Security before your full retirement age," she said. "And I will still say in most cases if you can wait till you are 70 and it makes sense to do so…especially if you are married."

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Take Time To Create a Plan</h2>
Rather than making a quick decision based on fear or uncertainty, Orman urges listeners to plan carefully. The key, she says, is figuring out both the best and worst times for you to claim benefits — not just emotionally, but financially.
"Take action with your Social Security," Orman said. That means understanding how timing impacts your <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44424162/its-a-really-really-bad-idea-suze-orman-warns-58-year-old-against-using-a-401k-to-buy-a-lifetime">lifetime income</a> and considering your health, marital status, and overall retirement plan.
Bottom line: If you're nearing retirement, it may be worth thinking twice before taking Social Security at 62. A little patience — and planning — can pay off in the long run.

Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>) shares are trading higher Monday after the U.S. and China agreed to a temporary reduction in most tariffs on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/45352452">each other&#8217;s goods</a>.
What To Know: According to <a href="https://www.npr.org/2025/05/12/nx-s1-5395027/us-china-tariffs-deal-trade-war-beijing-washington">NPR</a>, the deal will drop U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods from 145% to 30% and Chinese duties on U.S. imports from 125% to 10% for a three-month period.
On the U.S. side, the talks were led by Trade Representative Jamieson Greer and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, while Vice Premier He Lifeng led the discussions for China.
Bessent said at a press conference that, &#8220;We concluded that we have shared interests, and we both have an interest in balanced trade.&#8221; In addition, Greer stated that there is a &#8220;positive path forward&#8221; on the two countries working to combat fentanyl smuggling.
The updated U.S. tariff levels include a base 10% tariff on all imports, along with an additional 20% tariff introduced earlier this year by President Donald Trump in response to allegations that China is producing chemicals linked to fentanyl.
The U.S. is reportedly now in talks with China to increase its purchases of American goods.
Intel stock may be trading higher as a reduction in tariffs could alleviate some supply chain concerns and improve macro sentiment as well as demand visibility. Other chip stocks, including Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>), are also trading higher following the news.
Notably, sales from China accounted for about 30% of Intel&#8217;s <a href="https://seekingalpha.com/news/4432161-intel-faces-potentially-significant-impact-from-chinas-import-tariffs-wells-fargo">revenue in 2024.</a>

United Parks &amp; Resorts Inc.

Swanson also cited timing-related expenses, adding, &#8220;First-quarter results were also impacted by certain timing related impacts that resulted in over five million dollars more of certain expenses being recorded in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024. We are also pleased to report that April 2025 attendance was up 8.1% compared to April 2024.&#8221;
He added that 2025 bookings for Discovery Cove, group bookings, and international ticket sales are all tracking ahead of 2024. &#8220;With approximately 75% of our historical attendance and revenue opportunity still ahead of us as of April 30, 2025, we continue to expect new records in revenue and Adjusted EBITDA in 2025.&#8221;

The antitrust trial from the Federal Trade Commission against Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/25/04/44799581/no-expiration-date-on-metas-antitrust-case-says-former-ftc-chair-ahead-of-trial">centered on the company's acquisitions</a> of Instagram and WhatsApp.
The FTC is accusing META of using its power to acquire smaller companies through a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44821791/meta-platforms-used-buy-or-bury-strategy-to-monopolize-social-media-ftc-says"> "buy or bury" strategy.</a>
The trial has revealed that Meta <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44832468/snapchat-rejection-resurfaces-as-mark-zuckerberg-defends-meta-in-ftc-trial-and-the-tech-mogul-still-thinks-he-cou">attempted to buy</a> Snapchat and once considered spinning off Instagram on its own, an item that will now be forced on the company if the FTC wins its case.
New Twist: According to a new report, Meta platforms contacted a known critic ahead of the trial.
The New York Post <a href="https://nypost.com/2025/05/12/business/meta-nudged-big-tech-critic-media-research-center-for-help-on-eve-of-ftc-trial-sources/">reported</a> that Meta attempted a last-ditch effort to win favor ahead of the antitrust trial, which began April 14.
According to the report, Meta called the right-leaning watchdog, Media Research Center, in early April ahead of the trial. The Media Research Center is known for taking on big technology companies like Meta Platforms and often calling out companies for censorship and political bias.
A Meta official spoke to MRC executive Dan Schneider about the FTC trial and highlighted Meta's plan to ditch its fact-checking processes for a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42851889/meta-ditches-fact-checking-for-community-notes-zuckerberg-says-opportunity-to-restore-free-expression"> "community notes" style </a>similar to the one used by X. The company's past fact-checking methods were often the subject of criticism and censorship accusations by Republicans.
Schneider told the New York Post that he believes the phone call was an attempt to get him "to do something" to win favor with conservatives.
"On the eve of this trial that could have severe ramifications for Meta, (the company official) was throwing a ‘hail Mary' Pass to see if one of its chief critics would run cover for them in some way," Schneider said.
He added that he was not asked directly to do something for Meta. "I think it's clearly accurate that they were hoping I was going to do something."
Schneider said the Meta official may have referenced a settlement before the trial by suggesting the FTC could get a deal "not at trial, but with something beforehand."

Why It's Important: While Meta declined to comment to the New York Post, Schneider&#8217;s confirmation of the phone call could indicate the social media company&#8217;s efforts to avoid the antitrust trial.
The NY Post story said the MRC previously published several studies on Big Tech censorship, including several that portrayed Meta negatively.
Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42454227/months-after-trump-threatened-to-put-mark-zuckerberg-in-prison-meta-ceo-donates-1m-to-president-elects-inaugural-event">announced a $1 million</a> donation to Donald Trump's inauguration, which he attended and also took part in meetings at Mar-a-Lago.
After a previous tense relationship that included Trump threatening to put Zuckerberg in jail, the Meta CEO has appeared to be trying to make nice with the president and conservatives who are upset at past company policies.
The donations, support for Trump, and calls to the MRC were not enough to prevent the antitrust trial from starting.
A Wall Street Journal report also noted that Zuckerberg tried to settle the case before trial, offering $450 million and eventually raising the offer to $1 billion. The FTC has demanded $30 billion in the case. The report says FTC chairman Andrew Ferguson said he would not settle the case for less than $18 billion.
As the antitrust trial continues, Meta could be forced to spin off Instagram and/or WhatsApp.
META Price Action: Meta stock was up 6.5% to $630.80 on Monday, versus a 52-week trading range of $442.65 to $740.89. It is up 5.3% year-to-date in 2025 and 35% over the last year.
