NBT Bancorp Receives Regulatory Approval To Complete The Merger With Evans Bancorp, Shareholders Approve Merger

Elon Musk's role in the political dynamics of President-elect Donald Trump's team took center stage during this week's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42624528/government-shutdown-stocks-wobble-paychecks-delayed-holiday-travel-could-change-heres-what-you-need-to-know">government shutdown drama</a> as the billionaire's often scathing criticism of a bipartisan spending bill unleashed a wave of chaos on Capitol Hill.
Musk's social media posts, which by some accounts exceeded hundreds, depict his influence over GOP lawmakers and highlighted the outsized role he now plays and will likely continue to play in Trump's administration.
Republicans were not happy with the proposed version of the spending bill, though House Speaker Mike Johnson "believed that he could get enough Republicans to join most Democrats&#8221; to pass the bill and avert a shutdown, Russell Berman <a href="https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2024/12/elon-musk-x-congress-shutown/681120/">noted</a> in The Atlantic. It turns out, though, that the person he really needed to persuade was Musk.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Here's How It Rolled Out This Week</h2>
On Wednesday, Musk took to cyberspace lambasting the spending bill on X, calling it "criminal" and urging his 170 million followers to pressure Congress. His posts, which triggered strong reaction among House Republicans, were replete with threats. "Any member of the House or Senate who votes for this outrageous spending bill deserves to be voted out in two years!"
Johnson <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/video/6366181582112">told</a> Fox &amp; Friends Wednesday that he'd been in direct communication with Musk and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, attempting to explain the bill's nuances. Lobbying the two unelected billionaires, who are Trump &#8216;s picks to trim government waste, went on until the wee hours. Johnson admitted to Fox that he didn't get anywhere with the two.
Following Musk's tweets badgering House members, he also told his followers to call their representatives: "They are trying to get this passed today while no one is paying attention,&#8221; Musk warned.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bernie Sanders Speaks Out: &#8216;President Elon Musk&#8217;</h2>
Sanders responded with a Wednesday tweet of his own, <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/12/19/co-president-elon-musk-trump-ally-tests-influence-spending-fight/">noted</a> the Washington Post. &#8220;Democrats and Republicans spent months negotiating a bipartisan agreement to fund our government. The richest man on Earth, President Elon Musk, doesn&#8217;t like it. Will Republicans kiss the ring? Billionaires must not be allowed to run our government.&#8221;
Axios' Mike Allen <a href="https://www.axios.com/2024/12/19/behind-the-curtain-musks-america">called</a> Musk "arguably the most powerful person in business, the most powerful man in media and, at least at this moment, the most powerful man in politics."
GOP lawmakers, already uneasy about the bill, folded under the pressure of Musk's threats, demonstrating what Allen referred to as the "new playbook" for conservative influence: direct, real-time social media lobbying.
"This much power, across this many pillars of society, is without precedent. Musk yesterday single-handedly, his voice amplified by his day-long bombardment of scores of tweets on his X platform, sank a 1,547-page, bipartisan House spending bill aimed at preventing a government shutdown on 12:01 AM Saturday," wrote Allen.

Analyst Expectations For Pagaya Techs's Future

Did a series of unfortunate events cause funnyman Jim Carrey to finally sell his LA home of 30 years by taking a drop of $10 million from his original asking price? The 10,954-square-foot house in Brentwood went into contract with an asking price of $19.75 million, down from $28.9 million a year ago.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Claims To Need Cash</h2>
Carrey had stated in 2022 that he was quitting acting after starring in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/04/38174401/paramount-aims-for-sonic-movies-to-reach-avengers-level-status-says-producer">wildly successful</a> &#8220;Sonic the Hedgehog 2,&#8221; but his time off was short-lived. The actor stars in the third installment, which will be released on December 20th. When questioned about the retirement U-turn during the film&#8217;s promotion, Carrey hinted at a cash crunch:

</ul>
&#8220;I came back to this universe because I get to play a genius, which is a bit of a stretch,&#8221;<a href="https://x.com/APEntertainment/status/1866579281045811233?mod=article_inline"> Carrey quipped</a>. &#8220;And you know, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42512179/i-bought-a-lot-of-stuff-jim-carrey-admits-joining-other-stars-returning-to-acting-due-to-money-woes-after-retirement">I bought a lot of stuff</a> and I need the money, frankly.&#8221;
The actor, 62, is reported to have a net worth of $180 million. He previously sold a Malibu home for $13.95 million in 2013 and also owns a home in Maui, which is believed to have been purchased in 2017. It is his primary residence. According to Celebrity Net Worth, Carrey also owns an apartment in New York.
Carrey previously told the New York Post of his recently sold LA home:
&#8220;For three decades, it&#8217;s been a sanctuary for me, but I don&#8217;t spend a lot of time there now and I want someone else to enjoy it like I have.&#8221; Carrey still stands to make a fortune by most people&#8217;s standards from selling his LA home, having purchased it way back in 1994 for $3.8 million.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Nineties Heyday</h2>
Carrey&#8217;s career heyday was during the nineties and early oughts when he was the first actor to earn $20 million for a movie and earned at least $300 million from film salaries and bonuses. Box office hits from that era include The Mask, Dumb and Dumber, The Truman Show, Liar Liar and Bruce Almighty. Despite big up front checks, Carrey also made some savvy financial moves. At the height of his fame, he relinquished a big front-end paycheck for the movie &#8220;Yes Man&#8221; in exchange for being a part owner of the movie. It paid off as the film grossed $223 million worldwide, earning Carrey around $30 million.
Carrey&#8217;s recent return to the big screen comes after a significant downturn in his creative output. He has acted in only a handful of films in the last few years, including Sonic the Hedgehog 3, his only film of 2024. According to the Daily Mail, Carrey&#8217;s luxury car collection and global travel have helped him take a bite out of his fortune, which, coupled with his sporadic film work, has caused his net worth to drop. He wouldn't be the first Hollywood star to fall victim to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/10/41418807/al-pacino-went-broke-after-blowing-50-million-on-16-cars-23-cellphones-and-400k-for-landscaping-">profligate luxury car spending</a>.

Carrey&#8217;s decision to step away from Hollywood at 62 may have been motivated by a natural desire to lead a more meaningful life away from the entertainment business.

Ratings come from analysts, or specialists within banking and financial systems that report for specific stocks or defined sectors (typically once per quarter for each stock). Analysts usually derive their information from company conference calls and meetings, financial statements, and conversations with important insiders to reach their decisions.
Some analysts also offer predictions for helpful metrics such as earnings, revenue, and growth estimates to provide further guidance as to what to do with certain tickers. It is important to keep in mind that while stock and sector analysts are specialists, they are also human and can only forecast their beliefs to traders.

Wall Street Rallies On Soft Inflation Data, Bonds Rebound, Travel Stocks Surge: What's Driving Markets Friday?

TD Synnex's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNX#NYSE">SNX</a>) short percent of float has risen 24.38% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 2.00 million shares sold short, which is 3.52% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 3.84 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for TD Synnex has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing TD Synnex's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, TD Synnex's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.75%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.
