The New York Mets have started the 2025 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/major-league-baseball">Major League Baseball </a>season with a 3-3 record. Investors could soon be rooting for the team to hit the 100-win milestone thanks to a new multimillion-dollar sponsorship.
What Happened: Trading platform moomoo <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2025/04/03/3055569/0/en/Moomoo-and-the-NY-Mets-Announce-Strategic-Partnership-to-Elevate-Fans-Experience-to-the-Next-Level.html">announced </a>a new strategic partnership with the Mets on Thursday that could award one lucky customer $1 million.
The trading platform, which is owned by Futu Holdings Ltd (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FUTU#NASDAQ">FUTU</a>), will have permanent and rotational signage at CitiField during Mets games, including on the moomoo bullpen.
To celebrate the partnership, moomoo is offering cash prizes for customers based on the number of wins the Mets reach in the 2025 season.
Moomoo will pay out $1 million to one investor if the Mets win 100 games during the season. That potential grand prize drawing will take place on Sept. 28, 2025. Moomoo will also pay out prizes of $10,000 for 25 wins, $20,000 for 50 wins and $30,000 for 75 wins if the Mets reach those milestones.
The <a href="https://invest.us.moomoo.com/moomoomillion">contest </a>is open to people living in New York, New Jersey or Connecticut who open a moomoo account and place a deposit or mail a postcard to moomoo.
"We are very excited to partner with New York Mets, not only because I am a baseball fan, but also because we are committed to elevating the fan experience through various interactive games and promotions," moomoo's U.S. CEO Neil McDonald said.
The tagline "from bullpen to bull-market, moomoo, your powerful trading platform" will be used for the sponsorship and promotion.
"As more fans become financially savvy and explore online trading, this is a great opportunity to utilize a new, user-friendly platform while also receiving select benefits for upcoming Mets games," Mets President of Business Operations M. Scott Havens said.

Why it's Important: Moomoo's global presence includes 25 million users and the new sponsorship could be a way to add additional users in the growing competitive trading platform sector.
In the fourth quarter, Futu <a href="https://ir.futuholdings.com/static-files/135c4132-48f1-408c-80b5-f178dda1b712">reported </a>paying clients up 41% year-over-year, registered clients up 28.7% year-over-year and total number of users up 16.2% year-over-year.
Trading platform Robinhood Markets Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>) recently offered a $1 million prize in Bitcoin to users who participated in the company's 12-question multiple choice trivia game. The contest was played by over 300,000 people and was a way for Robinhood to try and promote its Gold subscription service.
As for the Mets chances of 100 wins, sportsbooks predict the team to be one of the top MLB teams in the 2025 season.
At DraftKings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DKNG#NASDAQ">DKNG</a>), the Mets have the fifth-best odds of winning the World Series at +1,400. At FanDuel, which is owned by Flutter Entertainment (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FLUT#NYSE">FLUT</a>), the over/under on the Mets wins for the season currently sits at 91.5, suggesting a likely total of 92 wins.
Last season, the Mets went 89-73 and made the playoffs. There were seven teams with 90 wins last season, but none eclipsed the 100-win plateau with the Los Angeles Dodgers closest at 98 wins.
The Mets have won 100 or more games several times in their history, including going 101-61 in 2022 and winning 100 or more in 1988, 1986 and 1969.

<h2>Unveiling the Story Behind Kroger</h2>
Kroger is one of the largest grocery retailers in the United States with more than 2,700 stores across a portfolio of over 20 supermarket banners. The company boasts an ingrained presence in US communities, citing that it is a top-two grocer in most of its major market areas. Over one fourth of Kroger's roughly $110 billion in nonperishable and fresh food sales (about 75% of revenue) stems from its private-label portfolio, of which the company manufactures about 30% of units via its own food production plants. The firm also operates fuel stations and pharmacies at 60% and 80% of its locations, respectively.
<h3>Kroger's Economic Impact: An Analysis</h3>
Market Capitalization Analysis: With an elevated market capitalization, the company stands out above industry averages, showcasing substantial size and market acknowledgment.
Revenue Growth: Kroger's revenue growth over a period of 3 months has faced challenges. As of 31 January, 2025, the company experienced a revenue decline of approximately -7.44%. This indicates a decrease in the company's top-line earnings. In comparison to its industry peers, the company trails behind with a growth rate lower than the average among peers in the Consumer Staples sector.
Net Margin: The company's net margin is a standout performer, exceeding industry averages. With an impressive net margin of 1.79%, the company showcases strong profitability and effective cost control.
Return on Equity (ROE): Kroger's ROE stands out, surpassing industry averages. With an impressive ROE of 5.8%, the company demonstrates effective use of equity capital and strong financial performance.
Return on Assets (ROA): Kroger's ROA stands out, surpassing industry averages. With an impressive ROA of 1.07%, the company demonstrates effective utilization of assets and strong financial performance.
Debt Management: Kroger's debt-to-equity ratio surpasses industry norms, standing at 3.03. This suggests the company carries a substantial amount of debt, posing potential financial challenges.
<h2>How Are Analyst Ratings Determined?</h2>
Analyst ratings serve as essential indicators of stock performance, provided by experts in banking and financial systems. These specialists diligently analyze company financial statements, participate in conference calls, and engage with insiders to generate quarterly ratings for individual stocks.
Beyond their standard evaluations, some analysts contribute predictions for metrics like growth estimates, earnings, and revenue, furnishing investors with additional guidance. Users of analyst ratings should be mindful that this specialized advice is shaped by human perspectives and may be subject to variability.

Analyst Expectations For Kroger's Future

In the current session, Revolve Gr Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RVLV#NYSE">RVLV</a>) is trading at $19.36, after a 13.69% decrease. Over the past month, the stock fell by 17.86%, and in the past year, by 2.07%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are more likely to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1743717617_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Revolve Gr P/E Compared to Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Revolve Gr has a better P/E ratio of 32.51 than the aggregate P/E ratio of 21.11 of the Specialty Retail industry. Ideally, one might believe that Revolve Gr Inc. might perform better in the future than it's industry group, but it's probable that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1743717617_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.

Ryan Cohen Buys GameStop Stock On Thursday: What Investors Need To Know

Mexican equities staged a historic rally on Thursday, defying a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/04/44618811/trump-tariffs-trigger-sell-off-on-holding-ast-spacemobile-lululemon-shopify-robinhood-tank">global market sell-off</a>. 
When President Donald Trump announced steep trade tariffs <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs">targeting key U.S. partners</a>, he spared Mexico and Canada.
The United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA)—a trade agreement that went into effect on July 1, 2020—shields U.S. neighbors from the immediate fallout.
The decision surprised market participants, who had expected a heavy tariff on the Central American economy. After all, Mexico runs a large trade surplus in goods with the U.S.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Mexican Equity ETF Outperforms S&amp;P 500 By Widest Margin Since September 1998</h3>
The iShares MSCI Mexico ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EWW#NYSE">EWW</a>) — a popular vehicle for U.S. investors seeking exposure to Mexican equities — surged 4.5% on the day. This marks its strongest one-day gain since June 2024.
Its performance was aided by the Mexican peso, which rose 1.4% against the dollar. 
Meanwhile, the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) plummeted 4.8%. That&#8217;s the worst daily performance since June 2020. 
This sets up an extraordinary 9.2 percentage point outperformance by Mexican stocks over their U.S. counterparts — a historically rare divergence.
According to historical market data, a performance gap of this magnitude between the two ETFs hasn't been seen since Sept. 15, 1998, when the Bank of Mexico intervened to defend the peso during a capital exodus from emerging markets triggered by Russia's default crisis.
Top daily performers included Operadora de Sites Mexicanos, S.A.B. de C.V. (OTCPK: OPMXF), which surged 5.5%, Bolsa Mexicana de Valores, S.A.B. de C.V. (OTCPK: BOMXF), up 4.7%, and Grupo Carso, S.A.B. de C.V. (OTCPK: GPOVF), which gained 3.9%.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Which Tariffs Are Applied To Mexico? </h3>
According to Goldman Sachs economist Alberto Ramos, the April 2 tariff order does not alter existing restrictions placed under the IEEPA (International Emergency Economic Powers Act) related to fentanyl and migration issues.
"USMCA-compliant goods will continue to see 0% tariff; non-USMCA compliant goods will face a 25% tariff, while non-compliant energy and potash exports are subject to a 10% levy," Ramos wrote in a note. 
Should the IEEPA orders be lifted, non-compliant goods would face a 12% "reciprocal" tariff, while USMCA-compliant exports would retain preferential access.
Mexico&#8217;s exports to the U.S. account for over 27% of GDP, underscoring the country's elevated sensitivity to U.S. trade policy. 
Ramos estimates that, under current rules, average U.S. tariffs on Mexican imports amount to roughly 8%, assuming most trade shifts to USMCA-compliant channels. 
Should more trade migrate to USMCA-compliant categories and if reciprocal tariffs replace IEEPA orders, the average effective tariff rate could fall slightly above 6%, improving Mexico's competitive positioning.
Despite the relief rally in Mexican assets, the economist cautions that Mexico remains indirectly exposed to global fallout. 
The broader package of reciprocal tariffs could dampen global growth and weigh on U.S. industrial demand, which would eventually affect Mexican exporters. 
&#8220;All in, in relative terms Mexico's external competitiveness was not hurt by today's announcements versus the current tariff baseline, but indirectly Mexico and LatAm could suffer from the potential impact on US and global growth of the broad reciprocal tariffs and any eventual retaliatory measures,&#8221; he said.

<h2>Analyst Ratings: Simplified</h2>
Within the domain of banking and financial systems, analysts specialize in reporting for specific stocks or defined sectors. Their work involves attending company conference calls and meetings, researching company financial statements, and communicating with insiders to publish "analyst ratings" for stocks. Analysts typically assess and rate each stock once per quarter.
Some analysts also offer predictions for helpful metrics such as earnings, revenue, and growth estimates to provide further guidance as to what to do with certain tickers. It is important to keep in mind that while stock and sector analysts are specialists, they are also human and can only forecast their beliefs to traders.
