<h3 class="wp-block-heading">AI Frenzy Shifts</h3>
Please <a href="https://thearorareport.com/chart-analysis-stock-ai-frenzy-shift-software-stocks-igv-smh-mc-11222024">click here</a> for an enlarged chart comparing VanEck Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMH#NASDAQ">SMH</a>) and iShares Expanded Tech-Software Sector ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IGV#BATS">IGV</a>).&nbsp;
Note the following:
<ul>
<li>The Arora Report previously shared with readers that the next stage of AI would benefit software stocks.&nbsp; This is beginning to happen now.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>The chart shows software ETF IGV has moved up since the presidential election.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>The chart shows that IGV has outperformed semiconductor ETF SMH by about 10% since the election.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>The Arora Report algorithms show money is flowing out of semiconductors and into software.</li>
<li>AI allows work processes to be totally reimagined compared to work processes of today.&nbsp; Work processes of today are implemented with legacy software.&nbsp; In The Arora Report analysis, it is an order of magnitude more efficient to use reimagined processes with AI native software.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>In The Arora Report analysis, there is a battle brewing among software companies for market share when it comes to AI capabilities.&nbsp; Legacy software companies have existing customers and cash to invest in AI.&nbsp; Legacy software companies are bolting on AI offerings.&nbsp; AI native software companies have an edge technologically.&nbsp; However, they do not have an existing market share.&nbsp; Promising AI native software companies are privately held.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>The foregoing tells us that AI will end up decimating some software companies while others will go to new heights.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>Investors need to look forward.&nbsp; Right now, most investors who are investing in software companies are looking backwards.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>Looking forward to 2030, the best way to capture AI opportunities in software companies is to combine the following three:
<ul>
<li>Profiting from a base position in a software ETF.&nbsp; The Arora Report's software ETF of choice is IGV.&nbsp; As full disclosure, IGV is in The Arora Report's ZYX Allocation Model Portfolio.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>Profiting from individual software company stocks that are evolving and keeping pace with AI developments and retaining and attracting customers.&nbsp; An example is PLTR and as full disclosure, PLTR was recently added to The Arora Report&#8217;s ZYX Buy Core Model Portfolio.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>Profiting from shorting software companies whose business models are being hurt by AI.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>A judicious combination of the foregoing will produce significantly higher risk adjusted returns, compared to using only one of the three in your investments.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>In the early trade, the momo crowd is aggressively buying junk stocks.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">China</h3>
Chinese stocks are ultra cheap.&nbsp; The rally in Chinese stock has stalled after Trump's re-election.&nbsp; Trump wants to impose 60% tariffs on Chinese goods.&nbsp; In the face of Trump's threat, China's 10 year note auction saw strong demand.&nbsp; The pricing was close to the record low yield.&nbsp; This data point indicates that investors believe China will manage just fine with Trump's tariffs.&nbsp;&nbsp;
In The Arora Report analysis, it is important to keep track of such data points. &nbsp;If there are more such data points, it will be time to step into Chinese stocks because they are so cheap.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Magnificent Seven Money Flows</h3>
In the early trade, money flows are positive in Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) and Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>).&nbsp;
In the early trade, money flows are neutral in Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), and Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>).
In the early trade, money flows are negative in Alphabet Inc Class C (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) and NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>).
In the early trade, money flows are negative in SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) and Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1 (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>).
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Momo Crowd And Smart Money In Stocks</h3>
Investors can gain an edge by knowing money flows in SPY and QQQ.  Investors can get a bigger edge by knowing when smart money is buying stocks, gold, and oil.  The most popular ETF for gold is SPDR Gold Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>).  The most popular ETF for silver is iShares Silver Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLV#NYSE">SLV</a>).  The most popular ETF for oil is United States Oil ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USO#NYSE">USO</a>).
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Bitcoin</h3>
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) is approaching $100K. SEC Chair Gensler has said that he will resign on Trump's inauguration day.&nbsp; Gensler has been anti-bitcoin.&nbsp; Even though Gensler's resignation was expected, as Trump has said he would replace Gensler, buying came into bitcoin on the news.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Protection Band And What To Do Now</h3>
It is important for investors to look ahead and not in the rearview mirror.&nbsp; The proprietary protection band from The Arora Report is very popular.&nbsp; The protection band puts all of the data, all of the indicators, all of the news, all of the crosscurrents, all of the models, and all of the analysis in an analytical framework that is easily actionable by investors.&nbsp;
Consider continuing to hold good, very long term, existing positions. Based on individual risk preference, consider a protection band consisting of cash or Treasury bills or short-term tactical trades as well as short to medium term hedges and short term hedges. This is a good way to protect yourself and participate in the upside at the same time.
You can determine your protection bands by adding cash to hedges.&nbsp; The high band of the protection is appropriate for those who are older or conservative. The low band of the protection is appropriate for those who are younger or aggressive.&nbsp; If you do not hedge, the total cash level should be more than stated above but significantly less than cash plus hedges.
A protection band of 0% would be very bullish and would indicate full investment with 0% in cash.&nbsp; A protection band of 100% would be very bearish and would indicate a need for aggressive protection with cash and hedges or aggressive short selling.
It is worth reminding that you cannot take advantage of new upcoming opportunities if you are not holding enough cash.&nbsp; When adjusting hedge levels, consider adjusting partial stop quantities for stock positions (non ETF); consider using wider stops on remaining quantities and also allowing more room for high beta stocks.&nbsp; High beta stocks are the ones that move more than the market.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Traditional 60/40 Portfolio</h3>
Probability based risk reward adjusted for inflation does not favor long duration strategic bond allocation at this time.
Those who want to stick to traditional 60% allocation to stocks and 40% to bonds may consider focusing on only high quality bonds and bonds of five year duration or less.&nbsp; Those willing to bring sophistication to their investing may consider using bond ETFs as tactical positions and not strategic positions at this time.
The Arora Report is known for its accurate calls. The Arora Report correctly called the big artificial intelligence rally before anyone else, the new bull market of 2023, the bear market of 2022, new stock market highs right after the virus low in 2020, the virus drop in 2020, the DJIA rally to 30,000 when it was trading at 16,000, the start of a mega bull market in 2009, and the financial crash of 2008.

9 Consumer Discretionary Stocks Whale Activity In Today's Session

New polls of Benzinga readers show they don't think the Department of Justice should break up 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>) or target other <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/magnificent-seven">Magnificent 7 stocks.</a>
What Happened: A recent investigation by the Department of Justice found prosecutors telling Alphabet it <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/42105079/googles-unlawful-behavior-stifles-market-entry-for-rivals-doj-says-alphabet-must-sell-chrome-to-end-search-monopoly">needs to divest </a>the Google Chrome browser to break a monopoly on online search.
A <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/42140450/doj-targets-google-chrome-poll-shows-64-oppose-alphabet-breakup-youtube-seen-as-top-prize">poll of Benzinga readers </a>showed 64% of respondents saying that Alphabet should not be split up. While the Department of Justice's probe into Alphabet likely means some changes will be made in the future, attention could quickly turn to other big technology companies after the Google parent.
"Which other Magnificent 7 stock should be broken up?" Benzinga asked.
The results were:
<ul>
<li>None of them: 51%</li>
<li>Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>): 14%</li>
<li>Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>): 12%</li>
<li>Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>): 11%</li>
<li>Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>): 5%</li>
<li>Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>): 5%</li>
<li>NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>): 2%</li>
</ul>
Around half of the poll respondents said no other Magnificent 7 stocks should be broken up. Of the people who picked a stock to be broken up, Amazon led the way with 14% of the vote.

Why It's Important: The desire to split up Amazon likely comes from investors wanting to have access to invest in Amazon Web Services, also known as AWS, a pure-play cloud platform.
In the most recent third-quarter financial results, Amazon reported the following revenue by business segment:
<ul>
<li>North America: $95.5 billion, +9% year-over-year</li>
<li>International: $35.9 billion, +12% year-over-year</li>
<li>AWS: $27.5 billion, +19% year-over-year</li>
</ul>
This trend is a common occurrence of AWS growth outpacing the other business segments. While AWS is the smallest of the three main reporting segments, the cloud segment is seeing strong growth and getting closer to outpacing international revenue.
AWS is also the larger driver for Amazon's operating profit. Of the company's third-quarter total of $17.4 billion in operating profit, $10.4 billion came from AWS.
Meta Platforms came in second of the companies in the poll, which could be related to investors wanting access to the companies social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram or access to the WhatsApp messaging service.
Meta could find itself a target of the new White House administration with both Donald Trump and J.D. Vance speaking out about <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/07/39826475/trumps-new-running-mate-j-d-vance-wants-to-break-up-google-could-2024-election-be-bad-for-big-te">the company previously.</a>
&#8220;I think that Google and Facebook have really distorted our political process. And I think a lot of my friends on the left would agree with me, but they might disagree with me directionally about how to fix that problem," Vance said earlier this year. &#8220;We have to stop the craziness, and I think one way to do it is to stop the way that these companies control the flow of information in our country.&#8221;
While many investors said Magnificent 7 stocks shouldn't be broken up, analysts see the move <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/08/40378964/google-stock-swings-on-doj-investigation-analyst-says-googl-is-worth-more-in-pieces">potentially unlocking value </a>based on sum-of-the-parts valuations.

Unpacking the Latest Options Trading Trends in Tesla

Good Morning Traders! In today&#39;s Market Clubhouse Morning Memo, we will discuss SPY, QQQ, AAPL, MSFT, NVDA, GOOGL, META, and TSLA.
Our proprietary formula, exclusive to Market Clubhouse, dictates these price levels. This dynamic equation takes into account price, volume, and options flow. These levels are updated every day and shared with all Clubhouse Members, prior to the opening of the market.
We recommend closely monitoring these stocks, and be prepared to leverage potential breakouts or reversals. As always, stay alert and ready to adjust your tactics based on the market&#39;s pulse to optimize your trading gains. Now, let&#39;s dive into the stock analysis:
<h3>SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust </h3>
SPY&nbsp;(ARCA: SPY) is currently trading near our key level of 592.00. For bullish traders, maintaining control above this level is crucial. A successful hold and push higher could bring 593.73 into play. If buyers sustain momentum above 593.73, the next target would be a move towards 596.57, a significant support level. Should this area hold during the session, further upside could drive the price to 598.04, with a high bullish target for the day of 599.24.
On the flip side, failure to maintain 592.00 as support could see bears stepping in to test the downside at 589.71. Sustained selling pressure at this level might push SPY down to 587.31, a critical threshold. If broken, we anticipate a move lower to 585.75, with the low bear target for a sell-off day situated at 584.68.
<h3>Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1</h3>
The QQQ&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/qqq#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) is trading around the significant level of 504.44. Bulls will aim to defend this area and push higher, targeting 506.68 as the next strong support zone. If sustained buying pressure materializes, the next upward move could test 509.87, with a potential climb to 511.53 if the session remains robust. The high bullish target for QQQ today stands at 513.64.
However, if sellers overcome the 504.44 support, we may see a downward move to 502.65. Bearish pressure at this level could pave the way for a test at 501.07. If weakness persists, expect a dip to 499.44, with the day&rsquo;s low bear target resting at 498.37.
<h3>Apple Inc. </h3>
Apple&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/aapl#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) is positioned around 229.03, a critical level for today&rsquo;s session. For bulls to take control, holding above this mark is key. A sustained rally could bring the price to 230.25, and if momentum continues, 231.76 is the next level to watch. A strong bullish session might drive Apple toward the day&rsquo;s high bull target of 233.28.
If 229.03 fails to act as support, bears may seize control and aim for 227.82. Further selling could bring 226.90 into focus. Persistent bearish action could drive the price lower to 226.08, with the low target for a negative session set at 225.31.
<h3>Microsoft Corp. </h3>
Microsoft&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/msft#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) is trading around 411.72, a pivotal level for today&rsquo;s action. For bulls, maintaining strength above this point is essential to build momentum. A move to 413.14 could establish a solid base for further gains, with the next targets being 414.56 and the high bull target of 416.32 if the session remains favorable.
Should 411.72 fail to hold, bears could gain traction and push the price to 410.64. A breakdown here may lead to further selling, testing 409.69. If bearish pressure intensifies, 408.46 could come into play, with the low target for the day positioned at 407.11.
<h3>NVIDIA Corporation </h3>
NVIDIA&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nvda#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) is trading near 145.61, a key level for today&rsquo;s price action. Bulls will aim to reclaim 147.06 and hold it as support, creating room for an upward move toward 148.52. If buying strength persists, the rally could extend to 150.32, with a high bull target of 151.99 for the day.
Failure to hold 145.61 could lead to a bearish session, with a test of 144.21 on the downside. Continued selling pressure might push the price toward 142.35, and if weakness remains, a drop to 141.21 is possible. The low bear target for NVIDIA today is set at 140.28.
<h3>Alphabet Inc Class A</h3>
Alphabet&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/googl#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) is trading near 167.04, a key level that bulls must defend. A push higher could bring 169.34 into focus, establishing a foundation for further gains toward 171.14. If momentum remains positive, the high bull target for Alphabet today is 172.28.
Conversely, if 167.04 fails to hold, bears may aim for 165.41. Breaking this level could lead to additional downside movement to 163.79, with heavy selling potentially driving the price to a low bear target of 161.79.
<h3>Meta Platforms Inc </h3>
Meta&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/meta#NASDAQ">META</a>) is hovering near 559.29, an important level for today&rsquo;s session. Bulls will seek to build momentum above this mark, with 565.53 as the next upside target. Sustained strength could push the price toward 573.25, and if bullish momentum dominates, Meta may reach the high target of 580.17.
If sellers overpower the bulls and break below 559.29, a move to 553.05 is likely. Continued pressure could drive the price lower to 548.44, with a breakdown opening the path toward the day&rsquo;s low target of 541.79.
<h3>Tesla Inc. </h3>
Tesla&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tsla#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is trading near 340.97, a critical level for today&rsquo;s action. Bulls will look to push the price higher, targeting 346.64 as the next resistance level. If momentum continues, a test of 350.87 is possible, with a strong session potentially driving Tesla to the high bull target of 363.84.
Failure to hold 340.97 could result in bearish control, leading to a test at 333.93. Continued selling pressure may bring 327.59 into play, and a breakdown here could see Tesla moving toward the low bear target of 322.52.
Final Word:&nbsp; The final session of the week brings a series of significant economic releases. At 9:45 AM ET, we&rsquo;ll see the Preliminary S&amp;P Global Services, Composite, and Manufacturing PMI reports for November, providing insight into the economic landscape. Shortly after, at 10:00 AM ET, the University of Michigan&rsquo;s final sentiment reading for November, along with 1-year and 5-10 year inflation expectations, will take center stage.
Finally, at 11:00 AM ET, the Kansas City Fed Services Activity index for November will offer additional data for market participants to digest. With multiple key indicators on the docket, expect volatility to be heightened. Stay vigilant, monitor volume and price action closely, and approach the day with disciplined risk management. Good luck and Happy Friday!

Market Clubhouse Morning Memo - November 22nd, 2024 (Trade Strategy For SPY, QQQ, AAPL, MSFT, NVDA, GOOGL, META And TSLA)

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) continues to defy expectations, not just as a trailblazer in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/electric-vehicles">electric vehicle (EV) market</a> but also as a juggernaut in the stock market. 
With its stock up 45.02% over the past year, 36.72% year-to-date, and 55.82% in just the last month, TSLA stock has firmly established itself in bullish territory.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/?utm_source=BZprocontent112224&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="628" height="490" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/22065459/Screenshot-2024-11-22-at-5.24.46-PM.png" alt="" class="wp-image-660725" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/22065459/Screenshot-2024-11-22-at-5.24.46-PM.png 628w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/22065459/Screenshot-2024-11-22-at-5.24.46-PM-300x234.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px" /></a></figure>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/?utm_source=BZprocontent112224&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">Chart created using Benzinga Pro</a>
The technical signals back this sentiment. Tesla&#8217;s stock price of $339.64 sits comfortably above its eight, 20 and 50-day simple moving averages, signaling a strong upward trend. The Moving Average Convergence/Divergence (MACD) indicator, at 25.85, underscores the stock's upward momentum, further supporting a bullish outlook.
Meanwhile, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 66.95 suggests TSLA is approaching overbought levels, reflecting a mix of optimism and caution among traders. However, the stock still appears to have room for upward movement in the near term.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Role Of China In Tesla's Stock Story</h2>
China, the largest EV market in the world, remains pivotal to Tesla's growth strategy. The Shanghai Gigafactory is not just a cornerstone of Tesla's global production but also a key revenue driver, contributing nearly a quarter of the company's total income.
While this reliance has helped Tesla dominate in China, it also makes the company vulnerable to U.S.-China trade tensions. If tariffs on key EV components like lithium-ion batteries escalate, it could squeeze Tesla's margins or limit its ability to pass on costs to consumers. 
However, Tesla's efforts to strengthen relationships with policymakers, both in the U.S. and abroad, may provide a safety net.
Investors have taken these geopolitical risks in stride, and TSLA stock has shown resilience even as broader market uncertainty persists.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Investor Outlook: TSLA In The Driver's Seat</h2>
For TSLA stock investors, the outlook remains compelling. The combination of strong technical momentum and Tesla's strategic position in the EV market suggests further room for growth. However, rising trade tensions and the stock nearing overbought territory suggest cautious optimism.
As Tesla balances its global ambitions with domestic trade policies, the company's ability to navigate these challenges will likely shape its stock's trajectory. 
For now, the technicals remain firmly bullish, and TSLA investors are keeping their eyes on the road ahead.

Tesla Gains 55% In A Month With Strong China Role, Bullish Signals

South Korean automaker Hyundai Motor Co&#8216;s (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HYMTF#OTC">HYMTF</a>) incoming CEO Jose Munoz is optimistic about the future of electric vehicles despite fears of EV tariffs and incentives getting dropped or reduced under the upcoming Donald Trump presidency.
What Happened: Hyundai decided to make a big investment in America during the previous Trump administration before the introduction of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) which provides incentives for the manufacturing of electric vehicles in the U.S., Munoz said in an <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1E3zF6S2JaQ">interview </a>with CNBC. 
&#8220;The fact that Elon Musk is so close to Trump is probably good for electric vehicles, not bad. We are not planning our business based on incentives. We want to produce really great vehicles with great features,&#8221; he said. Munoz&#8217;s appointment as co-CEO of Hyundai will be <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/42004380/hyundai-gears-up-for-trumps-return-to-white-house-elevates-us-chief-jose-munoz-to-co-ceo-appoints-former-us-diplomat-to-manage-external-affairs">effective from January. </a>
Why It Matters: In November 2023, Hyundai announced that it would <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/11/35768916/hyundai-announces-25-wage-hike-for-alabama-and-georgia-production-team-amid-labour-unrest">invest $12.6 billion in EV and battery manufacturing facilities in Georgia</a>, making it its largest investment outside South Korea. The first electric vehicle rolled off the assembly line in Georgia in October. 
Earlier this week, the company unveiled its Ioniq 9 three-row SUV which will roll out in the U.S. early next year. The Ioniq 9 will be up against other 3-row SUVs from rival automakers including Lucid Motors and General Motors and will be manufactured in Georgia. 
Hyundai now aims to have a lineup of 23 EV models by 2030.
Meanwhile, Wedbush analyst Dan Ives said Trump&#8217;s plan to get rid of consumer tax credits for EVs is actually not positive for Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>). Eliminating the EV tax credit could pose a major challenge to the United States&#8217; EV transition. However, Musk, a prominent supporter of Trump, has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/41988194/trump-plans-to-erase-ev-tax-credit-analyst-says-its-net-bullish-calls-sell-off-wrong-knee-jerk-reaction">reportedly expressed his support </a>to Trump's team for ending the EV tax credit.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk's Proximity To Trump Will Benefit EV Industry, Says Incoming Hyundai CEO As He Shrugs Off Potential Tariff Threats

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk on Thursday tempered down customer expectations of purchasing the company&#8217;s dedicated robotaxi offering &#8211; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tesla-cybercab">the Cybercab</a> &#8211; and its humanoid robot called <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/optimus">Optimus</a> for about $30,000 each, saying it would be possible only on the &#8220;long-term.&#8221;
What Happened: Production needs to exceed a million a year before the company can sell the two products for about $30,000, Musk said. 
&#8220;We need to reach >1M/year production volumes, but, long-term, yes,&#8221; he wrote in a post on X, without clarifying if he is hinting towards a collective production volume of a million or a million individually for both the products.

Tall Promises: During Tesla's annual shareholder meeting in June, Musk said that there will be at least&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39246781/elon-musk-thinks-humanoid-robots-will-one-day-exceed-human-population-from-nvidias-project-gr00t-to" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">one humanoid robot</a>&nbsp;for every person in the world in the future, implying a total humanoid robot population of at least 10 billion or more, of which the EV company will have a significant share.
Musk then said that he expects to be&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37950895/elon-musk-says-cost-of-making-an-optimus-is-half-that-of-manufacturing-a-tesla-ev-despite-complexity" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">able to sell Optimus at a price point below $30,000</a> once it reaches high-volume production.
In July, the CEO said that the EV company would have "genuinely useful" humanoid robots in low production for use within its factories next year. The company will "hopefully" increase production for other customers in 2026, he said.
As for the Cybercab, Tesla unveiled the car with no pedals or steering wheel in October. The vehicle, CEO&nbsp;Elon Musk&nbsp;then said, will enter production "before 2027" and be priced below $30,000.
History Of Underdelivering: Musk is known for providing price points that the company cannot deliver. 
During the Cybertruck&#8217;s unveiling in November 2019, Musk presented tentative pricing for the stainless steel truck. The dual-motor all-wheel-drive (AWD) variant was projected to begin at $49,900 but is now priced at $79,990 in the U.S.
The top-tier tri-motor all-wheel drive was projected to start at $69,900 but is now priced<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/23/12/36039263/did-tesla-overpromise-and-underdeliver-with-the-cybertruck"> at a whopping $99,990</a>.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk Tries To Lower Expectations Of $30K Optimus Or Cybercab

Renewable energy stocks present a buying opportunity despite recent electoral headwinds, according to UBS analysts, while Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk continues to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41059891/elon-musk-says-because-almost-none-of-you-do-your-math-sums-the-world-is-largely-not-using-the-big-f">advocate solar power&#8217;s future dominance</a>.
What Happened: UBS analysts on Thursday elevated U.S. and EU renewables to their top-ranking stock theme, citing an attractive entry point following steep post-election losses, <a href="https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/renewable-energy-stocks-election-trump-power-demand-data-centers-ubs-2024-11">reported</a> Business Insider. 
The announcement comes as clean energy shares have tumbled, with companies like Plug Power Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLUG#NASDAQ">PLUG</a>) and Enphase Energy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ENPH#NASDAQ">ENPH</a>) down over 24% since President-elect Donald Trump&#8216;s victory.
&#8220;The environment of an unrelenting power demand shock puts just about every source of power generation in a solid position to capitalize,&#8221; UBS analysts wrote, pointing to surging power needs from artificial intelligence data centers and corporate sustainability goals.
The analysts remain optimistic despite Trump&#8217;s expected scaling back of President Joe Biden-era clean energy initiatives. They argue that companies could &#8220;grandfather&#8221; existing subsidies and that state-level emission goals will sustain industry growth.

Musk, despite his new role in the incoming Trump administration, has historically remained bullish on renewable energy. &#8220;Once you understand Kardashev Scale, it becomes utterly obvious that essentially all energy generation will be solar,&#8221; he posted on X. He noted that a single square mile receives <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41059891/elon-musk-says-because-almost-none-of-you-do-your-math-sums-the-world-is-largely-not-using-the-big-f">approximately 2.5 gigawatts of solar energy</a>.

UBS recommends several stocks poised for gains, including NextEra Energy Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEE#NYSE">NEE</a>) and Generac Holdings Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GNRC#NYSE">GNRC</a>) in the U.S., along with European players like Iberdrola (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBDRY#OTC">IBDRY</a>), Siemens Energy (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMEGF#OTC">SMEGF</a>), and Orsted (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DOGEF#OTC">DOGEF</a>). The analysts cite historical precedent, noting that solar installations grew 50% during Trump&#8217;s previous term.
The renewable sector&#8217;s growth potential is further supported by expanding applications, including Musk&#8217;s recent suggestion that SpaceX&#8217;s Starlink satellite network could integrate <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41648885/spacex-ceo-elon-musk-agrees-that-starlink-could-combine-hardware-with-solar-panels-and-batteries">solar panels and batteries into its hardware offering</a>.
While Trump&#8217;s &#8220;drill baby, drill&#8221; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40703958/trumps-drill-baby-drill-pledge-may-not-deliver-promised-energy-price-cuts-experts-warn">stance has rattled markets</a>, UBS maintains that investor concerns about the sector&#8217;s future may be &#8220;overdone,&#8221; as corporate and state-level commitments to clean energy persist alongside growing power demands from emerging technologies.

As Trump Backs 'Drill Baby, Drill,' His DOGE Co-Lead Elon Musk Believes 'All Energy Generation Will Be Solar' — Here's What UBS Recommends After Election Dip

NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) continues to dominate the artificial intelligence landscape, with CNBC&#8217;s Jim Cramer and Wall Street analysts reinforcing their bullish outlook following <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/42099904/nvidia-beats-q3-revenue-eps-estimates-supply-constraints-ding-stock-huang-says-age-of-ai-is-in-full-steam">the company&#8217;s stellar third-quarter earnings report</a>.
What Happened: &#8220;The demand is accelerating because the payoff is so great,&#8221; Cramer <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/11/21/demand-for-nvidia-products-isnt-letting-up-jim-cramer-says.html">said</a> on Thursday, citing CEO Jensen Huang&#8216;s assertion that customers earn five dollars for every dollar invested in Nvidia chips. 
This compelling return on investment, Cramer argues, makes Nvidia&#8217;s products essential for major tech companies. &#8220;That means they have no choice but to buy Nvidia's chips,&#8221; he said. 
The sentiment is echoed by Wedbush&#8216;s Dan Ives, who called the results a &#8220;jaw-dropper.&#8221; Ives predicts the Nasdaq could surge to 25,000, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/42102642/nvidia-delivered-jaw-dropping-q3-earnings-says-dan-ives-this-is-the-fourth-revolution-playing-out-in-front-of-our-eyes">driven by an extraordinary multiplier effect</a> where &#8220;one dollar spent on GPU chips translates to an $8 to $10 impact across the tech sector.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Nvidia reported third-quarter revenue of $35.1 billion, up 94% year-over-year, with Data Center revenue alone reaching $30.8 billion. The company&#8217;s CFO Colette Kress projects gross margins will temporarily dip to the low 70% range as the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42102796/nvidia-projects-gross-margin-recovery-as-blackwell-systems-drive-unprecedented-ai-demand">new Blackwell systems ramp up production</a>.
Rosenblatt analyst Hans Mosesmann maintained a Buy rating while <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42121003/nvidia-to-rally-more-than-50-here-are-10-top-analyst-forecasts-for-thursday">raising the price target</a> from $200 to $220. 
This optimism is reflected in a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/42121665/could-another-magnificent-7-stock-beat-nvidia-in-2025-poll-says-not-likely-27-pick-this-potential-winner">recent Benzinga poll</a>, where 48% of respondents believed Nvidia would continue to dominate the &#8220;Magnificent Seven&#8221; stocks in 2025, followed by Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) at 27%.
Huang describes this period as &#8220;the beginnings of two fundamental shifts in computing,&#8221; highlighting the transition to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42102796/nvidia-projects-gross-margin-recovery-as-blackwell-systems-drive-unprecedented-ai-demand">machine learning and AI&#8217;s emergence</a> as an industrial capability. The company projects fourth-quarter revenue of $37.5 billion, with Oracle Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>) already planning AI computing clusters scaling to over 131,000 Blackwell GPUs.
Price Action: Nvidia&#8217;s stock has surged more than 196% year-to-date, significantly outperforming the broader market and its &#8220;Magnificent Seven&#8221; peers, including Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) at 23.3% and Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) at 11.4%, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Jim Cramer Doubles Down On Nvidia: 'Demand Is Accelerating' As AI Customers 'Have No Choice' But To Buy Its Chips

Over half of the Magnificent 7 stocks have outperformed the S&amp;P 500 in 2024 and all seven have produced higher five-year returns. Benzinga readers pick which Magnificent 7 stock could have the best 2025 and if anyone can catch Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), which continues to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/42099904/nvidia-beats-q3-revenue-eps-estimates-supply-constraints-ding-stock-huang-says-age-of-ai-is-in-full-steam"> beat analyst estimates.</a>
What Happened: Nvidia stock is up 199% year-to-date in 2024 and could have more upside ahead according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/42119226/nvidia-analysts-see-stock-best-positioned-in-ai-not-worried-about-guidance-all-systems-go-for-blackwell-ramp">analyst price targets </a>after the company's third-quarter beat and raised guidance.
Benzinga recently asked readers if any of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/magnificent-seven">Magnificent 7 stocks</a> could post stronger stock growth than Nvidia in the next year.
"In 2025, which Magnificent 7 stock could outpace Nvidia in growth?" Benzinga asked.
The results were:
<ul>
<li>None – Nvidia will dominate: 48%</li>
<li>Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>): 27%</li>
<li>Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>): 8%</li>
<li>Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>): 7%</li>
<li>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>): 6%</li>
<li>Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>): 3%</li>
<li>Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>): 2%</li>
</ul>
The poll found the near-majority predicting Nvidia will have the strongest growth in 2025 and dominate the Magnificent 7 stocks once again.
Coming in second place, and the stock that could have the best chance to pass Nvidia according to readers, was Tesla at 27%. This might not be a huge surprise given Tesla's five-year return is the next closest to Nvidia's when looking at the Magnificent 7 stocks.
Here are the current year-to-date and five-year returns of the Magnificent 7 stocks:
<ul>
<li>NVDA: YTD +199.1%, 5-Year +2,634.2%</li>
<li>TSLA: YTD +38.2%, 5-Year +1,446.2%</li>
<li>AMZN: YTD +31.3%, 5-Year +125.5%</li>
<li>META: YTD +61.3%, 5-Year +181.0%</li>
<li>GOOG: YTD +19.7%, 5-Year +158.0%</li>
<li>MSFT: YTD +11.4%, 5-Year +176.2%</li>
<li>AAPL: YTD +23.3%, 5-Year +249.7%</li>
</ul>
Perhaps most surprising in the poll was Apple finishing last despite having the third-best stock performance over the last five years.
Compare the returns above to the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), which tracks the S&amp;P 500, which is up 25.3% year-to-date and up 90.4% over the last five years.
Meanwhile, the Roundhill Magnificent Seven ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MAGS#NASDAQ">MAGS</a>), which invests in the Magnificent Seven stocks, is up 55.7% year-to-date. The ETF has not been around for five years to track that performance.

Why It's Important: A <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/42093025/will-nvidia-deliver-a-blowout-beat-in-q3-poll-says-maybe-not-but-over-half-see-stock-clearing-150">recent Benzinga poll</a> asked readers to predict if Nvidia would beat, miss or meet earnings estimates in the third quarter.
The results were:
<ul>
<li>Meets expectations: 45%</li>
<li>Blowout Beat: 42%</li>
<li>Misses expectations: 13%</li>
</ul>
The majority of Benzinga readers expected the company to meet or beat the estimates from analysts. While more readers expected the company to meet estimates, 42% believed the company would beat estimates Wednesday.
Benzinga readers also predicted what an earnings beat could mean for Nvidia stock going forward.
&#8220;If Nvidia shatters expectations, how high could its stock go by the end of 2024?&#8221; Benzinga asked.
The results were:
<ul>
<li>$150 to $180: 55%</li>
<li>$180 to $200: 26%</li>
<li>Above $200: 18%</li>
</ul>
Nvidia shares traded down in after-hours Wednesday before reversing to the green in early Thursday trading. The stock is down 0.5% to $145.20 Thursday at the time of writing.

The study was conducted by Benzinga from Nov. 19 through Nov. 20, 2024, and included the responses of a diverse population of adults 18 or older. Opting into the survey was completely voluntary, with no incentives offered to potential respondents. The study reflects results from 128 adults.

Could Another Magnificent 7 Stock Beat Nvidia In 2025? Poll Says Not Likely, 27% Pick This Potential Winner

Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos,&nbsp;two of the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/41813356/elon-musks-net-worth-soars-by-26-5-billion-in-single-day-after-tesla-stock-surges-post-trump-vic" target="_blank" rel="noopener">world&#8217;s richest people,</a>&nbsp;entered a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/42105450/elon-musk-says-amazon-founder-jeff-bezos-urged-tesla-spacex-investors-to-dump-stakes-predicting-trumps-loss">social media sparring</a> match on Thursday.
What Happened: The controversy began when Musk accused Bezos of urging &#8220;everyone&#8221; to sell shares of Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) ahead of the 2024 presidential election. Musk supported Donald Trump during the presidential stakes, contributing hundreds of millions of dollars to Trump&#8217;s election efforts.
&#8220;Just learned tonight at Mar-a-Lago that Jeff Bezos was telling everyone that @realDonaldTrump would lose for sure, so they should sell all their Tesla and SpaceX stock &#x1f92d;,&#8221; Musk <a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1859483544612913376">posted</a> on his social media platform, X. The post garnered over 29 million views.
Bezos responded nearly nine hours later.
&#8220;Nope. 100% not true,&#8221; the Amazon founder succinctly <a href="https://x.com/JeffBezos/status/1859615862984167549">replied</a>. 
It is unclear whether the billionaire entrepreneur plans to pursue legal action against Musk.
Tesla&#8217;s stock has far outperformed the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) since <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/11/41768811/donald-trump-wins-47th-presidency-us-futures-up-europe-up-asia-mixed-crude-falls-and-dollar-strength">Trump&#8217;s election win</a> on Nov. 5. Tesla shares are trading up 35%, breaking the $1 trillion mark, while the benchmark has gained 2.97%.
Musk is the largest shareholder of Tesla. While Musk did not start the company, he has served as CEO since 2008.
Musk and Bezos&#8217; rivalry stretches decades. Musk is the principal shareholder of SpaceX while Bezos owns Blue Origin, two space exploration companies.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Nvidia Dips Aggressively Bought</h3>
Please <a href="https://thearorareport.com/chart-analysis-stock-nvidia-earnings-nvda-mc-11212024">click here</a> for an enlarged chart of NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>).
Note the following:
<ul>
<li>This article is about the big picture, not an individual stock.&nbsp; The chart of NVDA stock is being used to illustrate the point. As full disclosure, NVDA is part of The Arora Report&#8217;s ZYX Buy Model Portfolio.</li>
<li>The chart shows the dip in NVDA stock has been aggressively bought.</li>
<li>The chart shows that NVDA stock dipped into the support zone after earnings.&nbsp; The buying in NVDA this morning has been extremely aggressive as illustrated by the fact that NVDA traded as high as $149.40 vs. the prior high of $149.77.</li>
<li>The chart shows the NVDA bounced from the support zone to the resistance zone.</li>
<li>As of this writing, NVDA stock is very volatile.</li>
<li>In The Arora Report analysis, a tell for the stock market will be to see if NVDA stock breaks out or retraces back to the support zone.</li>
<li>Nvidia reported earnings better than the consensus numbers, better than some whisper numbers, but less than the top end of the whisper numbers.</li>
<li>Overheating was a big concern going into earnings.&nbsp; It appears that most of the overheating issues have been resolved.&nbsp; Here are the key points from Nvidia earnings:
<ul>
<li>Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said, "The age of AI is in full steam, propelling a global shift to Nvidia computing."</li>
<li>Blackwell demand is likely to exceed supply in FY26.</li>
<li>Hopper demand is also very strong.</li>
<li>Nvidia is working on the next data center architecture that will improve production yields.</li>
<li>Nvidia expects enterprise AI, industrial AI, and robotics to continue to increase.</li>
<li>Nvidia beat on revenue.
<ul>
<li>Data center revenue and automotive revenue hit records.</li>
<li>Gaming revenue increased 15% from last year.</li>
<li>Professional visualization revenue increased 17% from last year.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>The fact that NVDA dips are being aggressively bought is helping the overall stock market.</li>
<li>Also helping the stock market this morning is Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) approaching $100K.</li>
<li>Sentiment is extremely positive.</li>
<li>Investors are buying stocks and cryptos with total abandon.&nbsp; If it was not for the positive seasonality and year end chase, this kind of reckless buying would have resulted in increasing the protection band because extreme positive sentiment is historically a sell signal.&nbsp; However, The Arora Report call remains to buy the dips because the year end chase is likely to trump all other factors.&nbsp; In year end chase, even bearish money managers aggressively buy stocks to keep up with their benchmarks.</li>
<li>Initial jobless claims came at 213K vs. 221K consensus.&nbsp; This indicates that the job market is very strong.&nbsp; This is another data point that shows that the Fed should not have been cutting interest rates as aggressively as it did. In the short term, the Fed's actions have poured gasoline over the fire to aggressively buy stocks and cryptos.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">First ICBM Fired</h3>
The first operational intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) was developed by Russia in 1957, followed by development by the U.S. in 1959.&nbsp; To the best of our knowledge, Russia has fired the first ICBM in battle since its invention.&nbsp; This is Russia's response to Ukraine firing U.S. and British long range missiles on Russian territory.
In The Arora Report analysis, both Russia and Ukraine are escalating the conflict to gain an advantage before Trump stops the war.&nbsp; These developments have major implications for investors.&nbsp;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Problem For India</h3>
Gautam Adani is the most important industrialist in India.&nbsp; He is also very closely allied with India&#8217;s Prime Minister Modi.&nbsp; The U.S. Department of Justice has just indicted Adani for bribes in solar contracts.
The Indian stock market has fallen on the news.  In The Arora Report analysis, some foreign money is going to flow out of India on this development.  The Arora Report call has been to steadily take partial profits on India positions Fairfax India Holdings Corp (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FFXDF#OTC">FFXDF</a>), WisdomTree India Earnings Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EPI#NYSE">EPI</a>), iShares MSCI India Small-Cap ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMIN#BATS">SMIN</a>), and VanEck India Growth Leaders ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLIN#NYSE">GLIN</a>).  The Arora Report&#8217;s call yesterday evening was to take more partial profits on India positions.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Bitcoin</h3>
Bitcoin is approaching $100K.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Protection Band And What To Do Now</h3>
It is important for investors to look ahead and not in the rearview mirror.&nbsp; The proprietary protection band from The Arora Report is very popular.&nbsp; The protection band puts all of the data, all of the indicators, all of the news, all of the crosscurrents, all of the models, and all of the analysis in an analytical framework that is easily actionable by investors.
Consider continuing to hold good, very long term, existing positions. Based on individual risk preference, consider a protection band consisting of cash or Treasury bills or short-term tactical trades as well as short to medium term hedges and short term hedges. This is a good way to protect yourself and participate in the upside at the same time.
You can determine your protection bands by adding cash to hedges.&nbsp; The high band of the protection is appropriate for those who are older or conservative. The low band of the protection is appropriate for those who are younger or aggressive.&nbsp; If you do not hedge, the total cash level should be more than stated above but significantly less than cash plus hedges.
A protection band of 0% would be very bullish and would indicate full investment with 0% in cash.&nbsp; A protection band of 100% would be very bearish and would indicate a need for aggressive protection with cash and hedges or aggressive short selling.
It is worth reminding that you cannot take advantage of new upcoming opportunities if you are not holding enough cash.&nbsp; When adjusting hedge levels, consider adjusting partial stop quantities for stock positions (non ETF); consider using wider stops on remaining quantities and also allowing more room for high beta stocks.&nbsp; High beta stocks are the ones that move more than the market.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Traditional 60/40 Portfolio</h3>
Probability based risk reward adjusted for inflation does not favor long duration strategic bond allocation at this time.
Those who want to stick to traditional 60% allocation to stocks and 40% to bonds may consider focusing on only high quality bonds and bonds of five year duration or less.&nbsp; Those willing to bring sophistication to their investing may consider using bond ETFs as tactical positions and not strategic positions at this time.
The Arora Report is known for its accurate calls. The Arora Report correctly called the big artificial intelligence rally before anyone else, the new bull market of 2023, the bear market of 2022, new stock market highs right after the virus low in 2020, the virus drop in 2020, the DJIA rally to 30,000 when it was trading at 16,000, the start of a mega bull market in 2009, and the financial crash of 2008.

Good Morning Traders! In today&#39;s Market Clubhouse Morning Memo, we will discuss SPY, QQQ, AAPL, MSFT, NVDA, GOOGL, META, and TSLA.
Our proprietary formula, exclusive to Market Clubhouse, dictates these price levels. This dynamic equation takes into account price, volume, and options flow. These levels are updated every day and shared with all Clubhouse Members, prior to the opening of the market.
We recommend closely monitoring these stocks, and be prepared to leverage potential breakouts or reversals. As always, stay alert and ready to adjust your tactics based on the market&#39;s pulse to optimize your trading gains. Now, let&#39;s dive into the stock analysis:
<h3>SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust</h3>
SPY&nbsp;(ARCA: SPY) is currently trading near the 592.00 level, a critical area for today&#39;s session. If bulls maintain control above this mark, the first target on the upside is 593.73, which would indicate strengthening buy momentum. If this level holds during regular trading hours, buyers are likely to push the price toward 596.57. Sustained bullish activity above 596.57 could bring the high-interest zone of 598.04 into focus, with the ultimate target on the day at 599.24 if the broader market sentiment aligns.
On the flip side, failure to hold 592.00 as a support level could embolden the bears. A test of 589.71 would be the next likely scenario. If sellers remain active below this point, deeper downside exploration toward 587.31 could occur. Breaking this level might lead to a move lower to 585.75, with a potential daily bear target at 584.68 if selling pressure intensifies.
<h3>Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1</h3>
QQQ (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/qqq#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) is hovering around the key 504.44 level, a pivotal area for bulls to defend. Holding this support could set the stage for a rally toward 506.68, with sustained buying potentially extending gains to 509.87. A bullish momentum breakout above 509.87 could lead to a push toward 511.53, with 513.64 standing as the high bull target for the day.
Conversely, a failure to maintain 504.44 as support could shift control to the bears. An initial move down to 502.65 would be on the table, with further selling likely driving prices to 501.07. Continued downside momentum could open the door to 499.44, and the low bear target at 498.37 may come into play if selling accelerates during the session.
<h3>Apple Inc. </h3>
Apple&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/aapl#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) is trading near 229.03, a key level that bulls need to defend to maintain upward momentum. If buyers succeed, a move toward 230.25 is expected, with potential continuation to 231.76 on strong buying interest. A decisive break above this level could target 233.28, the high bull target for the day, especially if broader market conditions remain supportive.
Should 229.03 fail to hold as support, the bears could take control and test 227.82. Breaking this level might prompt further declines to 226.90, with a potential move lower to 226.08. If bearish momentum persists, the price could test the low bear target of 225.31.
<h3>Microsoft Corp.</h3>
Microsoft&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/msft#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) is currently near 416.32, a crucial level to watch. A hold above this point could spur bullish momentum, leading to a test of 417.25. Sustained strength above this area might drive prices higher to 419.17, with the high bull target for the session set at 420.26 if buyers dominate.
Failure to maintain 416.32 as a support level could lead to bearish activity, testing 414.56. If selling pressure continues, the next target is 413.14. A breakdown below this area could see the price move toward 411.72, with the low bear target of 410.64 within reach on heavy downside pressure.
NVIDIA Corporation 
NVIDIA&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nvda#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) is positioned near 144.21, a key level for today&#39;s session. Bulls need to drive the price toward 145.61 to establish solid support. From there, continued buying could lift the stock to 147.06, with additional momentum targeting 148.52. The high bull target stands at 150.32, achievable if bullish sentiment dominates the session.
Should 144.21 fail to act as support, bears will likely push the price toward 142.35. A break below this level could bring 141.21 into play, with further declines potentially targeting 140.28. If selling intensifies, the low bear target of 139.42 may be tested.
<h3>Alphabet Inc Class A</h3>
Alphabet&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/googl#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) is trading near 175.12, a significant level for bulls to defend. If they succeed, an upward move to 176.23 is likely, with continued strength targeting 177.28 as the high bull target. Positive sentiment in the broader market could further support this bullish trajectory.
If 175.12 fails as support, bears may drive the price to 174.01. Additional selling could lead to a test of 172.28, with 171.14 as the low bear target for the day if bearish momentum accelerates.
<h3>Meta Platforms Inc</h3>
Meta&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/meta#NASDAQ">META</a>) is trading around 565.53, a key pivot level for today&#39;s session. Bulls need to maintain this level to aim for a move toward 573.25. Sustained buying above 573.25 could drive prices to 580.17, with the high bull target for the day at 585.73 if strong momentum persists.
If 565.53 is lost as support, bears will likely test 559.29. A breakdown below this point could lead to further selling pressure toward 553.05, with the low bear target at 548.44 in play if sellers maintain control.
<h3>Tesla Inc.</h3>
Tesla&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tsla#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is trading around 340.97, a key level to watch closely. Bulls will aim to push the price toward 346.64 as a first target. If bullish momentum continues, 350.87 could come into play, with a strong rally potentially leading to a test of 356.80. The high bull target for the day is 363.84 if buyers maintain control throughout the session.
On the other hand, losing 340.97 as support could pave the way for bears to test 333.93. A break below this level might prompt further declines to 327.59, with 322.52 as the low bear target if sellers dominate the session.
Final Word:&nbsp; The trading day starts with a flurry of critical economic data. Initial and Continuing Jobless Claims are due at 8:30 AM ET, alongside the Philly Fed Business Outlook for November. These reports will provide insights into labor market trends and regional manufacturing conditions. At 8:45 AM ET, Fed voting member Beth Hammack will deliver remarks, potentially offering clues about future monetary policy.
At 10:00 AM ET, the Leading Index and Existing Home Sales data for October will be released, shedding light on economic momentum and housing market health. Midday action includes the Kansas City Fed Manufacturing Activity at 11:00 AM ET, followed by speeches from non-voting Fed member Austan Goolsbee and Beth Hammack at 12:25 PM ET and 12:30 PM ET, respectively. The 10-Year TIPS Auction at 1:00 PM ET adds another layer of complexity to the session. Additionally, markets are digesting NVIDIA&#39;s earnings surprise, which could fuel volatility. Traders should remain vigilant, adjust strategies to the day&#39;s developments, and prioritize risk management in a potentially turbulent environment. Good luck and trade safely!

Top 10 Trending Stocks On WallStreetBets As Of November 21, 2024 (Via Swaggy Stocks)

Tesla Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) new vehicle registrations in the EU are continuing to drop, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/41892379/tesla-offers-a-year-of-supercharging-for-free-in-europe-as-it-chases-record-q4-deliveries-to-outpace-a-slowdown">threatening the company&#8217;s global EV delivery target</a> for the year.
What Happened: Tesla had 11,088 vehicle registrations in the European Union in October, marking a drop of 21% from the corresponding period last year, according to data from the European Automobile Manufacturers' Association (ACEA). 
This is despite battery electric vehicle registrations rising 2.4% in the EU last month to 124,907 units on the back of growing popularity in Denmark and the Netherlands. 
Tesla had 192,661 new vehicle registrations in the EU from January through the end of October, marking a drop of over 11% year-on-year. 
For the full year 2023, Tesla delivered 1,808,581 vehicles around the globe. To mark a growth over last year, the company has to deliver at least 514,926 vehicles in the three months through the end of December. Tesla has never managed to deliver over 500,000 EVs in a quarter to date, making this an ambitious target.
Why It Matters: In the third quarter, Tesla reported deliveries of 462,890 vehicles, up 6.4% year-over-year and up 4.3% quarter-over-quarter.
Deliveries fell 8.5% year-on-year in the first quarter and by 4.8% in the second quarter.
According to Tesla researcher Troy Teslike, the low sales in Europe are likely to impact Tesla&#8217;s aim to prevent a drop in yearly deliveries. 
&#8220;Tesla is trying to reach 514,925 deliveries this quarter to avoid a drop in yearly totals compared to the 1,808,581 units delivered last year. However, even if they sell out all their inventory in the US, it's still going to be tough to hit that number because sales in Europe are down too,&#8221; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/41894615/tesla-q4-deliveries-expected-to-set-new-records-but-not-enough-to-avoid-yearly-sales-decline-says-researcher">Teslike said</a> in a post on X earlier this week.

Tesla Registrations Drop By Over 20% In October In EU, Possibly Hindering Its 2024 Global EV Delivery Target

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk in his latest post alleged that Amazon founder and executive chairman Jeff Bezos predicted President-elect Donald Trump&#8216;s defeat and advised people to sell their stakes in Musk&#8217;s companies before the election.
<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">Just learned tonight at Mar-a-Lago that Jeff Bezos was telling everyone that <a href="https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@realDonaldTrump</a> would lose for sure, so they should sell all their Tesla and SpaceX stock &#x1f92d;
&mdash; Elon Musk (@elonmusk) <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1859483544612913376?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 21, 2024</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
What Happened: Musk shared in a post on X that he learned about Bezos&#8217; advice to investors during a recent visit to Trump's Mar-a-Lago Club in Florida.
Both Musk and Bezos didn&#8217;t respond to Benzinga.com to clarify these claims.
Musk has played a significant role in Trump&#8217;s resurgence, not only by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41561298/elon-musk-pumps-more-than-130m-into-trump-and-gop-campaigns">investing millions</a> into Trump&#8217;s campaign but also by acting as a policy advisor and promoter. X (formerly Twitter), which is Musk&#8217;s social media platform also aided the campaign by promoting the Make America Great Again or MAGA movement.
On the contrary in October, the Washington Post owner Bezos blocked the publication&#8217;s endorsement of any U.S. presidential candidate citing concerns about objectivity. The newspaper in 2016 and again in 2020 endorsed Trump's election opponents, Hillary Clinton and President Joe Biden.

Why It Matters: As president-elect Trump has emerged victorious in the elections, he has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/24/11/41962372/trumps-doge-with-musk-at-the-helm-riddled-with-conflicts-of-interest-says-clinton-era-official-robert-reich">appointed Elon Musk</a> along with Republican politician Vivek Ramaswamy as the co-heads of the newly proposed task force DOGE or the Department of Government Efficiency.
As per the notice shared by Trump, the initiative is expected to focus on dismantling bureaucracy, reducing regulations, and cutting wasteful expenditures. The department is scheduled to complete its work by July 4, 2026, coinciding with America's 250th independence anniversary.
