ASML Holding NV (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>) CFO Roger Dassen explained the impact he expects the tariffs to have on the company in 2025 during an analyst call.
What Happened: On Tuesday, following ASML&#8217;s first-quarter earnings, Dassen answered questions regarding the tariffs and their impact on the company&#8217;s performance.
While stating that the situation was still quite dynamic, Dassen outlined the potential fallout that he foresees across four key areas of the company's supply chain.
The first category he says is the tariffs imposed on complete system shipments into the United States. Followed by tariffs on the parts and tools required for field operations within the U.S., which is the second category.

Third is tariffs on the material imports that it needs to manufacture in its U.S.-based facilities. Dassen notes that the company does &#8220;have some manufacturing capability in the US. So anything related to that would be the third category.&#8221;
Finally, the fourth category pertains to the reciprocal tariffs imposed by other countries on ASML&#8217;s shipments from the United States.
Dassen then mentions the extent to which the tariffs will have an impact on global GDP and on total market demand as another factor to consider. In the end, however, he mentions that the company is doing all it can to ensure that the impact on its finances is &#8220;as limited as possible.&#8221;
Why It Matters: According to ASML&#8217;s 2024 annual report, the company generates a bulk of its sales in China, South Korea, Taiwan, and Japan, at 36%, 23%, 15%, and 4%, respectively. 
These are all countries on which the U.S. has imposed reciprocal tariffs, and while tariffs on all but China are paused, analysts such as Ben Barringer of Quilter Cheviot believe the impact will be &#8220;widespread,&#8221; before adding that it was still too early to tell the kind of effect the company will have to CNBC&#8217;s Squawk Box Europe.
ASML posted a better-than-expected <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44832382/nvidia-supplier-asml-beats-revenue-and-eps-estimates-euv-product-mix-performance-milestones-drive-q1-says-ceo">first-quarter performance</a> yesterday, but net bookings witnessed a slowdown, coming in below consensus estimates.
Price Action: The stock is down 4% in premarket trading on Wednesday, and is down over 30% in the past year.

A Texas federal judge has ruled against a Biden-era regulation that would have capped <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/25/03/44482518/major-credit-card-provider-warns-us-consumers-are-spending-less">credit card</a> late fees at $8, terminating a major initiative by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) to restrict what it labelled "junk fees."
 The decision is being regarded as a legal and political win for financial industry groups that resisted the regulation.
What Happened: U.S. District Judge Mark Pittman <a href="https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.txnd.387342/gov.uscourts.txnd.387342.150.0.pdf">dismissed</a> the CFPB rule, finalized in March 2024, after both the agency and six major business associations agreed it was unlawful. The rule was meant to save consumers an average of $220 a year by limiting late fees.
Pittman ruled that it conflicted with the 2009 Credit Card Accountability and Disclosure Act, which allows fees that are "reasonable and proportional." The lawsuit was filed by the American Bankers Association, U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and many Texas business groups.

Why It Matters: The court's ruling deals a setback to the Biden administration's larger effort to take down what it called predatory consumer charges. Those opposing the rule argued it would backfire.
"It would have resulted in more late payments, lower credit scores, higher interest rates and reduced credit access," the plaintiffs said in a joint statement. They added that the outcome was a victory for financial responsibility and "common sense."
The CFPB's attempt to reformulate the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/44811593/bank-of-america-ceo-says-consumer-continues-to-spend-and-maintain-healthy-credit-quality-sticks-to-annual-outlook">credit card fee structure</a> now faces a major hindrance. With rising scrutiny of the agency's authority and legal footing, the future of federal consumer protection efforts hangs in limbo, particularly as calls to limit or even shut down the CFPB gain attention.

What Happened: Earlier this week, Google DeepMind introduced DolphinGemma, an AI model trained to generate and interpret dolphin-like vocalizations.
Built on Google's open-source Gemma architecture, DolphinGemma was developed in collaboration with the Wild Dolphin Project (WDP), a nonprofit that studies Atlantic spotted dolphins in their natural habitat.
Using data collected from decades of dolphin field recordings, the model can produce sequences that mimic real dolphin sounds.

Google says DolphinGemma is efficient enough to run on mobile devices, and WDP plans to test it on the Pixel 9 smartphone. The team previously used a Pixel 6 to collect and analyze dolphin vocalizations, but the Pixel 9 will allow simultaneous execution of AI models and audio-matching algorithms in the field.
The goal is to create a system capable of generating synthetic dolphin vocalizations and listening for a matching "reply," potentially paving the way for two-way interaction with dolphins.

Why It's Important: Previously, a 2024 Nature <a href="https://www.nature.com/immersive/d41586-024-04050-5/index.html">report</a> highlighted that AI-powered research has revealed that African savannah elephants (Loxodonta africana) and common marmoset monkeys (Callithrix jacchus) use unique "names" for their peers.
Scientists are also applying machine learning to decode the vocalizations of crows.
Despite recent advances, experts caution that an animal equivalent of Google Translate is still a long way off. According to marine biologist David Gruber, founder of the Cetacean Translation Initiative (CETI), the impressive progress in AI language models stems largely from access to massive datasets where the meanings of human language are already well-established.

Insights From Analysts:
According to Mona Mahajan of Edward Jones, the stock valuations were not stretched anymore. &#8220;While market returns have been negative this year, the upside is that valuations are now looking more compelling and are no longer stretched, which was a concern coming into this year.&#8221;
She highlighted that all major indexes were trading at or below their 10-year historical forward price-to-earnings multiples, potentially setting the stage for improved long-term returns.
The S&amp;P 500 forward multiple was around 18 times next year&#8217;s earnings forecast, down from a recent high of 22.7 times, while the Nasdaq forward multiple was about 21 times, down from its recent high of 30 times.
&#8220;In our view, the spike in volatility, a reset in valuations, and signs that the worst-case scenario in the trade war appears to be averted suggest that stocks may find some support and try to carve out a bottom. Risks have risen, but a recession is not inevitable in our view, and stocks appear to have already priced in a significant degree of bad outcomes,&#8221; she added.
Jason Goepfert of White Oak Consultancy LLC noted a historical pattern: whenever the VIX fear index drops from above 50 to the 30 level, the S&amp;P 500 has historically achieved 100% positive gains by year-end.
However, he points out that in the most recent such cycle in May 2020, the S&amp;P 500&#8217;s return after a year was 42.96%. Goepfert&#8217;s analysis of similar cycles in 2009, 2002, and 1988 also reveals a short-term median loss of 0.7% for the S&amp;P 500 in the week following the VIX&#8217;s drop to 30.

According to an X post by Charlie Bilello of Creative Planning, historical data since 1990 showed that the S&amp;P 500 has delivered an average return of 35% in the year following a VIX close above 50, and 129% over the subsequent five years.

US Stock Likely To Open Lower As US-China Tariff War Continues: 'Valuations Are Now Looking More Compelling,' Says Expert

United Airlines Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) said it will roll back its flight operations this summer as the company readies itself for a decline in air travel.
What Happened: In a full-year forecast released by the company, United Airlines announced it will cut its flight schedule by 4% starting in July, owing to softer customer demand.
The airline also announced it will retire 21 older aircraft from its fleet as well as scale back on off-peak flights on days with lower demand for air travel, which the company says is part of ‘prudent adjustments to the utilization rate of its fleet'.
The airlines also offered two forecasts — one scenario outlined a stable economy whilst the other outlined a ‘recessionary environment'. United said it earned $0.91 per share in Q1 2025.
Why It Matters: The news comes in as United recorded <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/04/44826858/united-airlines-stock-takes-off-on-q1-earnings-strong-q2-forecast-fy-guidance-for-stable-and-recessionary-environments-impossible-to-predict">over $13.21 billion</a> in revenue for the quarter, amid uncertainty as Donald Trump's tariffs wreak havoc in the global markets.
Delta Airlines <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/04/44671680/which-us-airline-is-facing-the-strongest-industry-tailwinds">being the leader</a> in the sector, experienced a surge in stock value after the Donald Trump administration announced a 90-day halt on all tariffs, which had cast doubts over the company's 2025 plans.
However, the aviation industry in the U.S. faces uncertainty with China imposing a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44831116/kimbal-musk-warns-of-boeings-decline-amid-us-china-decoupling-fewer-planes-pricier-parts-and-lost-jobs-as-airbus-gains-ground">halt on all imports </a>of aircraft made by manufacturer Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) into the country.
Boeing could face another challenge as it grapples with a potential <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44811150/faulty-bathroom-latches-could-cost-boeing-34-million-following-faa-directive">$3.4 million in modification costs</a> to its fleet as the FAA proposes an airworthiness report after it reviewed an incident involving a Boeing aircraft where a passenger got stuck in the onboard lavatory.
Price action: UAL stock experienced a 29.79% YTD in value and currently trades for $67.00 on the NASDAQ, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

The S&amp;P 500 has given a 17.9% median return each time the CBOE Volatility Index has fallen from over 50 to the 30 level. Analysts highlight historical trends showing how volatility cycles lead to advances in the S&amp;P 500 index.
What Happened: According to Jason Goepfert, a consultant at White Oak Consultancy LLC, each time the fear index, VIX, goes through a cycle of being above 50 to falling to the 30 level, the S&amp;P 500 index logs in 100% of positive gains by the end of that year.
According to the data highlighted by Goepfert, during the most recent VIX cycle of 50-to-30 in May 2020, the S&amp;P 500 returned 42.96% after one year.
He highlighted data from similar such cycles from 2009, 2002, and 1988. However, historically, the S&amp;P 500 logs a 0.7% median loss after the first week on ending the said 50-to-30 VIX cycle.

Meanwhile, Charlie Bilello of Creative Planning highlighted in his X post how the S&amp;P 500 has reacted after VIX has closed above 50 since 1990.
On average, whenever the VIX has closed above 50, the S&amp;P 500 has returned 35% over one year and 129% over the next five years.
