Ten years on from one of the most bitter legal battles in Britain's green energy sector, Dale Vince is still not mincing words. In a recent podcast appearance, the Ecotricity founder called Tesla Inc. CEO Elon Musk a "bad man running a bad company."
What Happened: Tesla proposed a collaboration with Ecotricity to boost EV charging infrastructure in the UK. The companies signed a non-disclosure agreement, and Ecotricity shared sensitive lease information with Tesla. However, it then turned into what Vince regards as an ambush, as he indicated in an interview with Novara Media.
One Sunday evening in 2015, Vince's colleague Simon Crowfoot <a href="https://www.independent.co.uk/tech/misdirected-email-sparks-electric-car-war-between-tesla-and-ecotricity-9533260.html">received an email</a> from Tesla. It was intended for a different Simon at Tesla, outlining a three-pronged plan to undermine Ecotricity: pressure landlords to breach contracts, launch a negative press campaign, and lobby government officials. The next morning, Ecotricity obtained a High Court injunction to block Tesla's moves. The legal battle played out over three years and <a href="https://www.current-news.co.uk/tesla-and-ecotricity-reach-out-of-court-settlement-over-electric-highways-d/">ended in a settlement</a>, with Tesla paying a major sum to Ecotricity.

Why It Matters: The case was seen as a defining "David vs Goliath" moment in the UK's EV rollout. Vince claimed Tesla misused confidential data to strong-arm its way into motorway charging sites, while pretending to negotiate in good faith. "They came to us all nice as pie," Vince said. "And when we refused, they tried to take it by force." He later described Tesla's behavior as "at least amoral," and called their tactics "like cowboys."
Court disclosures revealed internal Tesla communications, including Elon Musk reportedly saying, "It's not their Electric Highway, it's our Electric Highway"—a comment Vince said highlighted the company's aggressive posture. The episode became a cautionary tale for British companies dealing with Silicon Valley giants.

</figure>
Vince has since sold the Electric Highway to GRIDSERVE, but his view of Musk hasn't softened. "I wouldn't buy his car," he said on the podcast. "There might have been a world in which I'd bought a Tesla but I think they're quite naff… I think he's a bad man running a bad company."

Elon Musk Is A 'Bad Man' Running A 'Bad Company' Says British Green Energy Mogul Dale Vince, Ten Years After Tesla's 'Smash And Grab' Tactics Sparked UK EV War With Ecotricity

One frustrated investor took to <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/stocks/comments/1l1smuu/what_exactly_is_the_stock_market_based_on_now/">Reddit</a> to ask a question many have quietly wondered: &#8220;What, exactly, is the stock market based on now?&#8221;
&#8220;Not fundamentals. Not technicals. Not economic data. Not historical precedent. Not major news. Not Trump&#8217;s &#8216;truth&#8217; tweets,&#8221; the person wrote.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">More About Vibes Than Value?</h2>
Many agreed with the original poster, offering brief yet telling responses, such as &#8220;vibes&#8221; and &#8220;fumes.&#8221; One simply added, &#8220;Hope. The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-does-the-stock-market-work">stock market is based</a> on the hope you can grow some money.&#8221;

</ul>
Others suggested the system is less about value and more about routine flows of cash. A highly upvoted comment read, &#8220;It's based on continuing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/09/40753320/new-report-the-u-s-has-more-401-k-millionaires-than-ever-even-though-people-feel-the-economy-isn">massive inflows of 401(k) money</a>. Employed people socking away money in good times and bad. It means demand for stocks even when there is no rational reason for demand.&#8221;
Some pointed out that this cycle of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/05/45484036/ramit-sethi-explains-how-automatic-investing-can-grow-your-wealth-if-you-dont-see-it-you-wont-miss-it">automatic investing</a> might be what's keeping the market afloat. &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44473461/fund-managers-take-the-warren-buffet-route-even-as-retail-investors-pump-in-nearly-70-billion-into-us-stocks">Fund managers</a> end up with massive amounts of money that they must invest. It isn't optional,&#8221; one person wrote. &#8220;That means that fund manager gets a pile of money every month that has to go into the market no matter what realistic investing would dictate.&#8221;
Still, others raised concerns that this setup could eventually break. &#8220;This won&#8217;t hold when there&#8217;s more retired people than people investing for retirement,&#8221; someone warned.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Is It Gambling Or Just A Bubble?</h2>
Several people argued that the market now behaves more like a casino than a pricing mechanism for company value.
&#8220;You&#8217;re not betting on how a company will do, you are betting on what other gamblers will do,&#8221; one person wrote. &#8220;If the news is good and hyped they will buy thinking that others will buy. This makes the price go up.&#8221;
A few chimed in with cultural references to explain the mood. One joked, &#8220;Economics is just astrology for dudes,&#8221; while another compared current market logic to mass hallucination: &#8220;We routinely mass hallucinate trillion-dollar valuations for companies that would take a half century of growth to justify.&#8221;

While some still held onto traditional ideas like long-term investing or company profits, others said those no longer hold the same weight.&nbsp;
Whether it&#8217;s vibes, inflows, hope or habit, this Reddit thread made one thing clear: more and more investors are wondering if the market&#8217;s behavior makes sense anymore.

If scrolling your feed makes you feel like everyone's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">maxing out their 401(k)</a>, flipping houses, and buying gold bars "just for fun," you're not alone. But <a href="https://www.fidelity.com/learning-center/personal-finance/average-retirement-savings">Fidelity's latest retirement report</a> offers a much-needed reality check: most people aren't coasting into early retirement—they're just trying to stay on track.
Fidelity's Q4 2024 data offers a wide-angle look at more than 24.5 million participants across 26,700 corporate retirement plans. While it doesn't count savings in brokerage accounts, real estate, or that dusty jar of cash in your kitchen drawer, it's a solid snapshot of how Americans are preparing for retirement.

</ul>
Here's how average 401(k) and IRA balances actually stack up across the generations—and what that might say about your own retirement game.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Baby Boomers (Born 1946–1964)</h2>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Average 401(k): $249,300</li>
<li>Average IRA: $257,002</li>
<li>Total: $506,302</li>
</ul>
Boomers are clearly the furthest along—but even after <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/management/25/06/45752956/70-is-the-new-50-baby-boomers-are-being-told-to-keep-working-because-theyre-mentally-sharp-but-is-that-a-compliment-or-just-a-budget-fix">decades in the workforce</a>, most aren't looking at seven-figure balances. Their average savings rate is solid at 11.9%, plus 5% from employers. Still, with retirement possibly lasting 20–30 years, it's not exactly "leave-it-all-to-the-grandkids" money.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Gen X (Born 1965–1980)</h2>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Average 401(k): $192,300</li>
<li>Average IRA: $103,952</li>
<li>Total: $296,252 </li>
</ul>
Often labeled the "forgotten middle child" of the generational mix, Gen Xers are facing a now-or-never moment. Many are juggling college tuition, aging parents, and their own retirement dreams—and with just under $300,000 saved, the pressure is real.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Millennials (Born 1981–1996)</h2>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Average 401(k): $67,300</li>
<li>Average IRA: $25,109</li>
<li>Total: $92,409</li>
</ul>
Despite being deep into their prime earning years, millennials are still catching up. Student debt, housing costs, and late career starts haven't helped. The good news? Their contribution rates are climbing—18.3% have gone all-in on Roth 401(k)s, and over 70% are using target date funds.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Gen Z (Born 1997–2012)</h2>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Average 401(k): $13,500</li>
<li>Average IRA: $6,672</li>
<li>Total: $20,172</li>
</ul>
Just getting started, Gen Z isn't breaking any records—yet. But don't sleep on them: 81.5% are investing in target date funds and nearly one in five is already contributing to a Roth 401(k). Plus, their average savings rate – 7.2% – shows they're thinking long-term earlier than most generations did.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What "On Track" Actually Looks Like</h2>
Feeling behind? Fidelity recommends saving 15% of your income annually – including employer match – to stay on track for retirement. And they offer this rule of thumb: aim to have 1x your salary saved by age 30, 3x by 40, 6x by 50, and 10x by 67.
While those targets may feel high—especially with inflation doing its thing—they serve as rough benchmarks for anyone wondering whether they're pacing with their peers.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Long-Term Savers Reap Long-Term Gains</h2>
One bright spot in the data: people who've stayed with the same employer and plan for 15+ years tend to see significantly higher balances. Why? Stability, consistency, and compound growth. It's less about timing the market and more about time in the market.
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/smartasset">Retirement planning is less a race</a> and more a really long relay—one where you drop the baton, pick it up, and keep running. Whether you've got six figures saved or six months of rent, the key takeaway from Fidelity's data is this: it's not about being perfect—it's about being persistent.
And if you're still wondering how you stack up? You're already doing more than you think by paying attention.

Cameco (TSX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CCO#TSX">CCO</a>, NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CCJ#NYSE">CCJ</a>) reports an expected increase of approximately $170 million (US) in our 49% equity share of Westinghouse Electric Company's (Westinghouse) 2025 second quarter and annual adjusted EBITDA. The expected increase is tied to Westinghouse's participation in the construction project for two nuclear reactors at the Dukovany power plant in the Czech Republic. This expected increase will be taken into consideration in determining the 2025 distribution payable by Westinghouse to Cameco.
In addition to the increase in adjusted EBITDA in 2025, we expect significant financial benefits for Westinghouse, as a subcontractor, over the term of the Dukovany construction project and related to the provision of the fuel fabrication services required for both reactors for a specified period. The outlook for Westinghouse's compound annual growth rate for adjusted EBITDA remains 6% to 10% over the next five years, excluding the impact of the expected $170 million (US) increase in its 2025 adjusted EBITDA.
Cameco owns a 49% interest in Westinghouse and its partner, Brookfield Renewable Partners, owns the remaining 51%.

Shaquille O'Neal didn't just want an iPhone—he wanted the first one. Before the press, before the celebrities, before the world.
But even being a four-time NBA champion with global fame and a tech obsession couldn't get him ahead of Apple's notoriously secretive rollout in 2007. So what did he do? He pulled some strings, got Steve Jobs' personal number, and called—a lot.
"Stevie baby, it's Shaqy—can I get one of those iPhones?" he recalled asking. But Jobs wouldn't cave. "He said, ‘Shaq, I can't, I can't, I can't,'" O'Neal recounted speaking to <a href="https://youtu.be/ipAP2foYERc?si=OHbn03_aaFF46qHb">Mashable at SXSW in 2013</a>. "I got a lot of celebrities calling me… you gotta wait, Shaq."

This wasn't a one-time ask. Shaq was relentless. He wanted the first iPhone not just because it was cool, but because, as he put it, "when you're at the forefront of stuff, it's like bragging rights."
In a 2012 <a href="https://www.fastcompany.com/1824166/apple-makes-shaq-and-celebrities-everywhere-grovel-common-people/">interview with Fast Company</a>, he gave more context—and a little more heart. "I always wanted to be the one that's on the edge of the technological curve," he said. And when the iPhone was about to drop, he did what any certified tech nerd with a rolodex full of Silicon Valley contacts would do: he called in the favor. Over and over.
"The great Steve Jobs, rest in peace," Shaq said at the time. "When the iPhone was first coming out, I used to call him every other day. Can I please get one first? He never gave me one. He was a great guy."

The way Shaq tells it, you get the sense he wasn't even annoyed. In fact, he seemed to respect Jobs even more for sticking to his guns.
Shaq's not just a tech dabbler—he's a full-on enthusiast. "I'm a nerd, I'm a techie, I'm a geek," he proudly <a href="https://youtu.be/bWY6jsc0NcU?si=-4vSE6L2RJ2jSEHb">declared in a 2013 Bloomberg interview</a>. "All those terms we thought were funny are now in—and I'm proud to say I'm in."
And he meant it. In 2015, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/09/40677330/shaq-refused-to-pay-80-000-for-security-and-made-a-surprising-choice-he-invested-in-a-company-bezos">Shaq invested in Ring</a>, the smart doorbell company, after installing one himself and becoming a fan. He didn't stop at writing a check—he appeared in commercials and even went door-to-door helping install units in Georgia homes. When Amazon later acquired Ring in a reported $1 billion deal, Shaq's bragging rights became even more legit.
He <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/shlomosprung/2020/06/25/oura-nba-smart-rings-coronavirus-orlando-covid-pandemic-shaq-dell-benioff/">also backed Oura</a>, the smart ring that tracks sleep, recovery, and readiness scores. Because for a guy who's lived life at full throttle, it turns out the tech that monitors rest might be just as valuable as the tech that gets people hyped.

While basketball thrives on fierce competition, Shaq says the tech world operates on a completely different vibe. "In the basketball world, it's, ‘This is mine, and you can't have it,'" he explained. "But in tech, everybody's helping each other out. Kudos to the techie guys for everybody just having handshake deals." He went on to say there's more than enough innovation and opportunity to go around. "There's enough technology and enough dream space for everybody to survive," he added.
So no, Shaq never got that iPhone early. But he did get the last laugh—by diving headfirst into the tech world, not as a brand ambassador, but as a true geek with bragging rights of a different kind.
Because it's not just about being first. It's about being in. And on that front, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44380108/trust-me-im-reading-what-hes-doing-every-day-nba-legend-shaq-with-a-500-million-net-worth-swears-by-warren-buffetts-investing-wisdom">Shaq's already won</a>.

In the current market session, Greystone Housing Impact Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GHI#NYSE">GHI</a>) share price is at $11.32, after a 4.39% decrease. Over the past month, the stock spiked by 2.93%, but over the past year, it actually fell by 20.68%. With good short-term performance like this, and questionable long-term performance, long-term shareholders might want to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio.

<h3>Greystone Housing Impact P/E Ratio Analysis in Relation to Industry Peers</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. 
Greystone Housing Impact has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 46.57 of the Financial Services industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued.

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

Reiterates that PENN and HG Vora Are Recommending the Same Two Highly-Qualified Nominees &ndash; Johnny Hartnett and Carlos Ruisanchez &ndash; for the Two Available Director Seats at the Upcoming Annual Meeting
PENN Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PENN#NASDAQ">PENN</a>) (&quot;PENN&quot; or the &quot;Company&quot;) today made the following statement in response to the report issued today by Institutional Shareholder Services (&quot;ISS&quot;) related to the Company&#39;s 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the &quot;Annual Meeting&quot;) on June 17, 2025:
The ISS report confirms that two director seats are up for election at the 2025 Annual Meeting and that PENN and HG Vora have nominated and are recommending the same two highly-qualified candidates - Johnny Hartnett and Carlos Ruisanchez. ISS recognizes the open-mindedness with which PENN evaluated HG Vora&#39;s director candidates, noting: &quot;To its credit, the board appears to have given serious consideration to all three dissident nominees, and was open to accepting two of these nominees as its own.&quot;1 PENN encourages all shareholders to vote for Messrs. Hartnett and Ruisanchez for election and looks forward to welcoming them to the Board. Following the Annual Meeting, 75% of PENN&#39;s directors will have joined the Board since 2019.
In reaching its conclusions however, the ISS report fails to reflect a realistic view of William Clifford&#39;s candidacy. We remind shareholders that, during his time as PENN&#39;s CFO, Mr. Clifford advocated against key initiatives that were critical to succeeding in a competitive market. Following Mr. Clifford&#39;s departure in 2013 as PENN&#39;s CFO, these changes were implemented under the publicly announced P30 program and resulted in meaningful margin improvement. Further, during his interviews with PENN&#39;s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, Mr. Clifford demonstrated antiquated views of a rapidly changing industry, and the same posture of resistance to exploring value-generating solutions, which we believe would hinder constructive decision-making. PENN attempted multiple resolutions with HG Vora, but all of our resolution attempts were rejected. Given HG Vora&#39;s violation of its institutional waivers by multiple state gaming regulators, our ability to allow HG Vora to influence the governance of the Company beyond the evaluation of the nominees was expressly prohibited.
We appreciate the feedback and advice we have received from our shareholders in advance of this year&#39;s Annual Meeting. We want to assure shareholders that we understand and share their focus on ensuring that PENN&#39;s Board of Directors is optimally comprised to oversee the Company&#39;s execution on a strategic plan to drive shareholder value. The Board and management team remain committed to creating value for all shareholders and will continue to take actions in support of that objective.
