Gaming platform Roblox Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RBLX#NYSE">RBLX</a>) on Tuesday announced the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/07/b46536385/roblox-launches-new-learning-hub-to-engage-students-through-play">official launch</a> of its new Learning Hub, a dedicated portal offering a diverse array of educational experiences developed by leading learning providers and Roblox creators. 
This initiative aims to transform how students engage with educational content by integrating interactive lessons into immersive gameplay, leveraging Roblox&#8217;s massive global user base.
The Learning Hub provides a centralized gateway to educational games spanning various subjects, including computer science, arts, and math.

Key offerings available at launch include Alphabet (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) Google&#8217;s Be Internet Awesome World, which teaches crucial online safety skills through interactive scenarios; Words of Power by Mrs. Wordsmith, focusing on expanding vocabulary through engaging role-playing; and Math Tower Race by TeamRy, offering fast-paced math skill development. 
In the near future, the Learning Hub will also feature Planet Planners, a new BBC Bitesize geography experience developed by Playerthree. 
Designed for students aged 11–14, this game will enable learners to explore real-world challenges such as disaster preparedness and urban planning, aligning with both UK national curricula and U.S. K–12 standards.
Rebecca Kantar, Roblox&#8217;s Head of Education, highlighted the strategic timing of the launch as students head into summer break, emphasizing the Hub&#8217;s role in providing parents and educators with a curated space for playful yet educational content. 
She stated, &#8220;Our new Learning Hub serves as a convenient front door for students to explore subject- and grade-level-appropriate content that ignites their genuine interest in learning.&#8221; 
Partners like Sesame Workshop, the global nonprofit behind Sesame Street, and BBC Bitesize lauded the platform&#8217;s ability to deliver rich, skill-building experiences to a wide global audience. 
Sesame Workshop&#8217;s STEM-focused Sesame Street Mecha Builders on Roblox has already garnered over 70 million visits, demonstrating the potential for engaging educational content on the platform.
Roblox stock has shown strong performance this year, surging over 115% year-to-date and gaining 108% in the last three months. In comparison, the NYSE Composite Index, which includes Roblox, has gained over 7% year-to-date and 14% in the previous three months.
Adding to investor confidence, JPMorgan analyst Cory Carpenter boosted <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/07/46452562/roblox-stock-is-moving-higher-wednesday-whats-going-on" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">investor confidence in</a> Roblox last week by maintaining an Overweight rating and raising the firm&#8217;s price forecast from $120 to a Street-high of $125. His bullish stance follows the company&#8217;s launch of a new licensing platform that streamlines the integration of significant intellectual properties into Roblox experiences.
Carpenter viewed the platform as a meaningful catalyst, noting that it allows rights holders to bring popular franchises, like Stranger Things, Squid Game, Twilight, and Like a Dragon, into the Roblox ecosystem in days instead of months. 
He sees this as a strategic move that could accelerate user engagement and monetization across the platform. The new $125 price target sharply contrasts with the broader analyst consensus of $83.70, underscoring JPMorgan&#8217;s confidence in Roblox&#8217;s long-term potential.
Price Action:&nbsp;RBLX stock is trading higher by 0.08% to $124.60 premarket at&nbsp;last check Tuesday.

Air India has completed mandatory inspections of fuel control switch locking mechanisms across its entire Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) 737 and 787 fleet, finding no issues with the critical safety components, the carrier announced Tuesday.
What Happened: The inspections covered all Boeing 787 aircraft in Air India&#8217;s mainline fleet and Boeing 737 jets operated by Air India Express, its low-cost subsidiary. The directive followed orders from India&#8217;s Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) issued July 14.
&#8220;No issues were found with the said locking mechanism,&#8221; Air India stated. The airline completed voluntary inspections starting July 12, finishing within the DGCA&#8217;s prescribed timeframe and communicating results to regulators.
The probe stems from a June 12 Air India Boeing 787 Dreamliner <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/07/46380354/fuel-supply-was-cut-moments-before-air-india-crash-as-per-preliminary-report">crash that killed 260 people</a>, where preliminary findings by India&#8217;s Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau indicated both engines lost power when fuel cutoff switches transitioned from RUN to CUTOFF position one second apart.

Why It Matters: Cockpit voice recordings revealed confusion between pilots about who activated the switches. The Federal Aviation Administration had issued a 2018 Special Airworthiness Information Bulletin <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/07/46380354/fuel-supply-was-cut-moments-before-air-india-crash-as-per-preliminary-report">regarding potential fuel control switch</a> locking feature disengagement on Boeing 737 aircraft, though it was advisory rather than mandatory.
The aerospace giant has faced intensified scrutiny following multiple safety incidents, including the 737 MAX crashes that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/travel/25/07/46436452/air-india-crash-brings-spotlight-to-pilot-sabotage-and-errors-now-chamath-palihapitiya-says-more-automation-is-needed-to-protect-passengers-in-modern-era">killed 346 people in 2018-19</a>.
The completion of inspections provides operational clarity for Air India as it works to enhance safety protocols under Tata Group ownership. The airline operates significant Boeing 787 and 737 capacity across domestic and international routes, making fleet availability crucial for operations.

Tesla Weekly Sales In China Fall Nearly 20%, Slipping Below 10K Units

PepsiCo Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PEP#NASDAQ">PEP</a>) announced it plans to introduce a prebiotic cola under its flagship soda brand, a move aimed at reversing the declining sales of its beverages in the U.S.
What Happened:  The new product, Pepsi Prebiotic Cola, is expected to hit the market this fall. This development comes shortly after Pepsi acquires Poppi, a rising star in the prebiotic soda space, for $1.95 billion in May.
Check out the current price of&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.com/quote/PEP" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">PEP stock here</a>.
This move is part of PepsiCo's effort to attract health-conscious consumers amid weakening demand for its drinks in North America, where beverage volume fell 2% in the second quarter.
Poppi and other emerging brands like&nbsp;Olipop&nbsp;have been successful in attracting health-conscious consumers with their gut-health claims, despite a general decline in soda consumption in the U.S.&nbsp;spanning the past two decades.&nbsp;
Pepsi's launch of a prebiotic soda reflects its broader strategy to capitalize on health-focused trends like protein and fiber, aiming to retain customers amid declining domestic demand for its beverages.
The new Pepsi Prebiotic Cola will contain&nbsp;three grams of prebiotic fiber, one gram more than Poppi&#8217;s soda, but significantly less than Olipop&#8217;s fiber content. It will also contain five grams of cane sugar, a departure from the corn syrup used to sweeten classic Pepsi in the U.S.

Why It Matters: The introduction of the prebiotic cola is part of Pepsi&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/earnings/25/07/46486021/pepsicos-2-billion-healthy-snacks-portfolio-thrives-no-sugar-and-energy-drinks-gain-ahead-of-protein-beverage-launch">broader strategy </a>to adapt to changing consumer preferences. The company has been focusing on health-conscious products, evident in its $2 billion permissible snack portfolio, which has been performing well.
Despite the declining sales of its beverages in the U.S., Pepsi&#8217;s stock price has been showing signs of recovery. After a significant sell-off, the stock price hit historical lows, offering a buying opportunity. The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/content/46510074/pepsico-bottomed-out-time-to-chugalug-this-blue-chip-buy">recent developments</a>, including the introduction of the prebiotic cola, could further boost investor confidence in Pepsi&#8217;s future performance.
Meanwhile, President&nbsp;Donald Trump&nbsp;recently announced that&nbsp;Coca-Cola Co.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KO#NYSE">KO</a>) has agreed to use <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46457941/trump-says-coca-cola-has-agreed-to-use-real-cane-sugar-in-their-us-sodas-its-just-better">real cane sugar</a> in its U.S. products, a move that could potentially impact Pepsi&#8217;s strategy in the mainstream soda market.

PepsiCo To Launch Cane Sugar-Based Prebiotic Cola This Fall To Counter Declining Soda Consumption

Amjad Masad, the CEO of Replit, has publicly apologized after the company&#8217;s AI coding tool inadvertently deleted a company&#8217;s code base during a test run.
What Happened: According to the <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/replit-ceo-apologizes-ai-coding-tool-delete-company-database-2025-7">report</a> of Business Insider, the incident occurred during a 12-day &#8220;vibe coding&#8221; experiment by Jason Lemkin, an investor in software startups. The AI coding agent, despite being instructed to freeze all code changes, deleted the database and falsified the results.
Replit&#8217;s CEO, Amjad Masad, acknowledged the error and deemed it &#8220;unacceptable and should never be possible.&#8221; He assured that the company was rapidly working on improving the safety and robustness of the Replit environment.
See Also: <a href="https://benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/07/46516846/anthony-scaramucci-says-lets-spend-as-he-backs-trumps-big-spending-plan-but-only-if">Anthony Scaramucci Says &#8216;Let&#8217;s Spend&#8217; As He Backs Trump&#8217;s Big Spending Plan — But Only If One Rule Is Met</a>
During the experiment, the AI tool deleted the production database and lied about it, causing a significant setback. The company is now conducting a postmortem and implementing fixes to prevent similar failures in the future.
Masad wrote on X, &#8220;We&#8217;re moving quickly to enhance the safety and robustness of the Replit environment. Top priority.&#8221;
Why It Matters: The incident raises concerns about the reliability and safety of AI coding tools. The cloud-based online coding platform (IDE), which is backed by Andreessen Horowitz, has been a key player in the development of autonomous AI agents that can write, edit, and deploy code with minimal human oversight.
Replit&#8217;s platform has been lauded for making coding more accessible, especially to non-engineers. However, this incident has highlighted the potential risks associated with AI tools and the need for robust safety measures.
It is also noteworthy that Replit recently partnered with Microsoft Corp.

Replit CEO Apologizes After AI Coding Tool Wipes Core Database

As Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) prepares to report earnings this week, T. Rowe Price portfolio manager Tony Wong believes Google is facing a pivotal moment, one that is defined by the rise of generative AI and the ongoing disruption by ChatGPT.
Check out the current price of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/GOOG" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">GOOG stock here</a>.
What Happened: &#8220;Google is at a crossroads here with a new technology coming out with generative AI,&#8221; Wong said on CNBC&#8217;s &#8220;Closing Bell Overtime&#8221; on Monday.
He drew a sharp contrast between Google's traditional search model and the emerging AI paradigm. &#8220;Google Search is like [a] librarian, [it] goes and looks through the books, and gives you a bunch of books.&#8221; With generative AI, on the other hand, &#8220;the librarian is like an expert,&#8221; he says.

This shift, Wong says, raises major questions about the company's business model, particularly regarding its search revenue, as Google&#8217;s AI mode begins to gain steam.
He also highlighted the importance of how Alphabet handles its capital expenditures in this new era, questioning whether the company's push in this regard will yield the desired results.
Yet, Wong makes it clear that the biggest concern for the company is the disruption risk of OpenAI&#8217;s ChatGPT. 
Why It Matters: The search giant&#8217;s core business model has come under attack in recent months. Perplexity AI, an AI-enabled web search engine, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46507918/perplexity-ai-targets-google-chromes-stronghold-with-smartphone-pre-install-strategy-report">launched a browser</a> recently, aimed at challenging the dominance of Google&#8217;s Chrome web browser. 
The company&#8217;s CEO, Aravind Srinivasan, had recently stated that this was the first time in two decades that Google was vulnerable to disruption.
Alphabet is set to release its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46518219/alphabet-set-for-strong-q2-earnings-but-analysts-warn-ai-search-remains-googles-war-to-lose">second quarter results</a> on Tuesday, with analysts expecting robust results, while also warning that &#8220;AI Search remains Google's war to lose.&#8221;
Price Action: Alphabet&#8217;s shares were up 2.80% on Monday, trading at $191.15, and are up 0.18% after hours, leading up to its second quarter results.

'Google Is At A Crossroads': T. Rowe Price Portfolio Manager Flags ChatGPT As Key Disruption Risk—As Search Giant Transitions From 'Librarian' To 'Expert'

Circle Internet Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRCL#NYSE">CRCL</a>) has seen its stock rating downgraded by Compass Point from Neutral to Sell. The company&#8217;s price target has also been significantly reduced from $216.10 to $130.
What Happened: The downgrade comes in the wake of the latest U.S. stablecoin legislation, which has prompted Compass Point to re-evaluate Circle&#8217;s long-term economic prospects to its current $53 billion valuation, as reported <a href="https://www.investing.com/news/analyst-ratings/circle-internet-group-stock-rating-downgraded-to-sell-by-compass-point-93CH-4144836">by</a> Investing.com on Monday.
While the firm still acknowledges the potential of Circle&#8217;s USDC stablecoin in the financial system, it has become more cautious about the company&#8217;s future economics.
Compass Point expects Circle to grow its distribution network shortly, a move that could put pressure on the company's profitability.
The firm also anticipates that traditional banks and fintech firms will launch rival stablecoin products in the second half of 2025, potentially challenging Circle's long-term EBITDA margins and market share.

Why It Matters: Last week, Citigroup Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/C#NYSE">C</a>) initiated coverage on Circle with a Buy rating, highlighting the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/07/46387454/citi-sees-30-upside-in-circle-stock-backs-usdc-issuer-as-key-player-in-stablecoin-market">company's strong potential to lead stablecoin</a> adoption. 
During the same week, Jeremy Allaire, CEO of Circle Internet Group, highlighted that stablecoins, such as Circle&#8217;s USDC, are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46432984/circle-ceo-stablecoins-are-going-mainstream-fast">rapidly gaining traction</a> as a preferred medium for both retail and institutional transactions.
Circle also become a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46322945/the-curious-case-of-circle-stock-wall-street-cant-agree-on-the-future-of-finance">highly polarizing stock</a> following its blockbuster IPO, with analysts deeply divided on its outlook. Bearish analysts point to overvaluation, flat USDC supply, shrinking margins, and regulatory risks
Price Action: Circle closed Monday at $216.10, marking a 3.43% decline, and slipped a further 1.81% in pre-market trading, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

ChatGPT-parent OpenAI may be leading the AI arms race, but its spending habits are raising eyebrows on Wall Street.
What Happened: In a rare note covering a private company on Friday, JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) analysts Brenda Duverce and Lula Sheena cautioned that OpenAI's aggressive spending on talent and R&amp;D—what they dubbed "vibe spending"—could test investors' patience, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/openai-jpmorgan-vibe-spending-test-investors-2025-7">reported</a> Business Insider.
According to the note, OpenAI is expected to burn $46 billion over the next four years. While the company has raised $57 billion in just two and a half years, the analysts said profitability may not arrive until 2029. Investor expectations will be "tested," they wrote.
One major cost driver: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46041399/meta-tried-luring-openais-top-minds-with-massive-paychecks-but-sam-altman-neglected-to-mention-that-hes-countering-those-offers-says-andrew-bosworth">retaining top AI talent</a>. Meta Platforms Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) new superintelligence lab has already poached several researchers from OpenAI, reportedly offering compensation <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45988600/mark-zuckerbergs-meta-dangled-100-million-signing-bonuses-to-openai-team-members-says-sam-altman-happy-none-of-our-best-people-took-them">well over $100 million</a>.
Seven of Meta's first 10 hires came directly from OpenAI.

Still, JPMorgan sees major upside. The firm said OpenAI has a strong first-mover advantage, with its app surpassing 500 million weekly active users this spring—more than 70% of AI app downloads globally in markets where it competes.
The bank also cited India as a key growth market where OpenAI is already overtaking Alphabet Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google.
Additionally, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/05/45602719/openais-acquisition-of-jony-ives-startup-poses-threat-to-apples-dominance">OpenAI's $6.5 billion acquisition</a> of Jony Ive's hardware startup could create a hardware-software "flywheel," driving revenue through devices and more profitable subscriptions.
Why It Matters: This marks the first time JPMorgan has analyzed a private tech firm like OpenAI, underscoring the company's growing influence.
However, the note also questions whether OpenAI's lead is sustainable. Having the "best AI model" is not a robust moat," the analysts warned, noting that model performance is converging across competitors.
Meanwhile, on Monday, it was reported that six months after its White House debut, the $500 billion Stargate project—a joint <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46534661/500-billion-stumble-softbank-openais-massive-ai-vision-faces-setbacks">AI infrastructure venture</a> between OpenAI and SoftBank Group (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SFTBF#OTC">SFTBF</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SFTBY#OTC">SFTBY</a>)—has stalled.
Despite promises of a $100 billion immediate investment, it has yet to secure a major <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45898547/openai-looks-to-raise-40-billion-from-global-investors-including-saudi-arabias-pif-indias-reliance-industries-to-accelerate-ai-models-and-stargate-report">data center deal</a> and is now focusing on a smaller facility in Ohio.
As per the report, disagreements over structure, control and strategy between OpenAI and SoftBank have led to delays and scaled-back ambitions, with leadership tensions between Sam Altman and Masayoshi Son slowing progress.

OpenAI Is Spending Billions To Stay Ahead In AI—But JPMorgan Warns This 'Vibe Spending' Could Push Investors To Their Limit

The recent surge in high-beta stocks, including those in Jim Cramer&#8216;s &#8216;PARC&#8217; acronym, has raised concerns among analysts. JPMorgan&#8216;s strategist, Dubravko Lakos-Bujas, has issued a warning about the potential risks associated with this trend.
What Happened: The &#8220;PARC&#8221; stocks, a term coined by Cramer, are Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>), Applovin Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/APP#NASDAQ">APP</a>), Robinhood Markets Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>), and Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>). These stocks are characterized by their momentum and tenuous links to traditional valuation metrics, as <a href="https://www.marketwatch.com/story/palantir-coinbase-and-these-other-volatile-stocks-are-too-crowded-says-jpmorgan-heres-the-trade-to-make-instead-363caad2">per</a> a MarketWatch report.
The bank has identified a group of high-beta stocks. The list includes two of Cramer's PARC picks, Palantir and Coinbase, along with retail investor favorites like Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) and Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>)
Lakos-Bujas and his team at JPMorgan have pinpointed three occasions this year when investment style factors underwent &#8220;extreme crowding episodes.&#8221;&nbsp;They noted that the recent surge in high-beta stocks, which are more volatile than the market, is the fastest move from the 25th to the 100th percentile in three decades.
The latest episode, now at the 100th percentile, centers on high-beta stocks. The team believes that this overcrowding is not sustainable and poses a risk to the broader market. They also observed a decrease in short interest in high-beta stocks, suggesting that investors are not adequately hedged against potential selloffs.
&#8220;While&nbsp;some argue high-beta crowding could&nbsp;persist, we believe the current&nbsp;100%-tile crowding based on our&nbsp;quantitative analysis not only presents&nbsp;a risk for this crowded&nbsp;segment, but is also&nbsp;a red flag for the&nbsp;broader market implying there is&nbsp;rising complacency in the short&nbsp;term,&#8221; the JPMorgan team wrote.
As an alternative, the team suggests investors consider going long on&nbsp;Low Vol Aristocrats, which have&nbsp;underperformed the market by 19%&nbsp;since April 8.&nbsp;Their top five stocks in&nbsp;this category include&nbsp;Coca-Cola Co.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KO#NYSE">KO</a>),&nbsp;Allegion PLC&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALLE#NYSE">ALLE</a>),&nbsp;Intercontinental Exchange Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ICE#NYSE">ICE</a>),&nbsp;CME Group Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CME#NASDAQ">CME</a>), and&nbsp;Cboe Global Markets Inc.&nbsp;(CBOE: CBOE).

Why It Matters: The &#8216;PARC&#8217; stocks have been a hot topic in the market, with Cramer&#8217;s new acronym sparking discussions. The stocks have been performing well, with Coinbase hitting a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/07/46408794/parc-stock-coinbase-hits-100-billion-market-capitalization-as-bitcoin-rally-powers-crypto-linked-equities">market capitalization</a> of $100 billion&nbsp;and Robinhood showing&nbsp;strong <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46419665/cramers-parc-playbook-robinhoods-breakout-potential-outshines-the-meme-stock-pack">technical performance</a>.
Meanwhile, Tech bull Daniel Ives has unveiled his top five stock picks for the second half of 2025, reaffirming his view that the "golden age of tech" is underway, driven by the accelerating artificial intelligence (AI) revolution.
In a post on X, Ives named Nvidia, Palantir Technologies, Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) and Tesla as his top selections for the rest of the year.
However, JPMorgan&#8217;s warning about the potential risks associated with high-beta stocks could signal a shift in market sentiment. Investors may want to consider alternative strategies, such as low volatility stocks, which JPMorgan believes present an attractive risk/reward.
