Flutter Entertainment Disclosed The Launch Of An Offering Of USD-denominated Senior Secured Notes Due 2031, EUR-denominated Senior Secured Notes Due 2031 And GBP-denominated Senior Secured Notes Due 2031 By Its Subsidiary Flutter Treasury DAC

Home Depot Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HD#NYSE">HD</a>) highlighted its supply chain diversification strategy during its earnings call, estimating &#8220;limited&#8221; tariff impact as senior economist Mohamed El Erian hailed its &#8220;China plus many&#8221; approach.
What Happened: Despite reporting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45518559/home-depot-flags-tariff-and-supply-chain-risks-in-risk-statement-but-does-not-revise-outlook">mixed quarter</a>, the Home Depot management remained confident about its diversification strategies during its first quarter earnings call on Tuesday.
The EVP of merchandising, Billy Bastek, told analysts on the call that 50% of our purchases are sourced in the U.S. while highlighting its diversification efforts.
&#8220;We&#8217;re already taking action, moving quickly, and we anticipate 12 months from now that no single country outside of the U.S. will actually represent more than 10% of our purchases,&#8221; said Bastek.
El Erian found this &#8220;interesting&#8221; and highlighted in an X post that &#8220;It reflects the growing trend of companies looking to move beyond a &#8216;China plus 1&#8217; or &#8216;China plus 2&#8217; supply chain model towards a more diversified &#8216;China plus many&#8217; approach.&#8221;

Bastek explicitly stated that &#8220;We don&#8217;t see broad-based price increases for our customers at all going forward,&#8221; also seeing a &#8220;limited impact&#8221; from the existing tariffs.
He highlighted Home Depot&#8217;s strategy to limit tariff impact, which involved:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Reducing exposure by diversifying sourcing.</li>
<li>Utilizing internal efficiencies (productivity) to offset costs.</li>
<li>Strategically adjusting their product assortment by discontinuing tariff-affected items that no longer fit their &#8220;line structure&#8221; or value proposition.</li>
<li>Avoiding widespread price increases for their customers.</li>
</ul>

Whereas, its adjusted earnings per share fell 3% to $3.56, missing the $3.60 estimate.
&#8220;Our first quarter results were in line with our expectations as we saw continued customer engagement across smaller projects and in our spring events,&#8221; said Ted Decker, chair, president, and CEO.
The company reiterated its guidance for the full fiscal year, seeing the revenue up 2.8% at $163.98 billion, slightly below the consensus estimate of $164.17 billion.
Home Depot forecast its adjusted earnings per share to be at $14.94, falling short of the $14.99 consensus, along with an adjusted operating margin of around 13.4%.
Price Action: HD shares ended 0.61% lower on Tuesday and declined 0.013% in after-hours. The company has declined 2.94% on a year-to-date basis, and it was up 12.17% over a year.

Palantir Partners With SAP To Fuse Ontology, Foundry And Enterprise Data: CEO Alex Karp Calls It 'Extremely Valuable'

Amid the ongoing tariff dispute between President Donald Trump and Walmart Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>), the retail giant has responded to the potential impact of these tariffs on consumer prices.
What Happened: The President took to social media to chastise Walmart for suggesting that his administration&#8217;s tariffs would lead to increased prices for consumers. In a post on Truth Social on May 17, Trump insisted that Walmart should &#8220;Eat The Tariffs&#8221; rather than passing the cost onto consumers.
Walmart responded to Trump&#8217;s criticisms on May 20, with spokesperson Joe Pennington <a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2025/05/20/walmart-response-trump-tariffs-directive/83742350007/">telling </a>USA Today, &#8220;We&nbsp;have always worked to keep&nbsp;our prices as low as&nbsp;possible and we won&#8217;t stop.&#8221; He added, &#8220;We'll keep prices as low as we can for as long as we can given the reality of small retail margins."

Why It Matters: This dispute follows Walmart&#8217;s warning about <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45484675/trumps-tariff-challenge-amid-rising-price-concerns-president-tells-walmart-to-eat-the-tariffs">potential </a>price hikes due to tariffs, as reported. The President&#8217;s directive to Walmart sparked a backlash, with economist Peter Schiff criticizing the economic logic of Trump&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45530403/peter-schiff-slams-trumps-eat-the-tariffs-message-to-walmart-he-might-as-well-ask-it-to-eat-rent-wag">stance </a>in a post on X on Tuesday.
The tariff uncertainty comes amid a mixed first-quarter results <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/earnings-beats/25/05/45472271/walmart-growth-prospects-remain-solid-but-tariff-uncertainty-lingers-analysts-say">report from</a> Walmart. Walmart CFO John David Rainey expressed concern in a May 15 CNBC interview that proposed tariffs would significantly impact retailers, suppliers and ultimately consumers. Prices are expected to increase later this month and into June, especially for electronics, toys and food. 
Walmart President Douglas McMillon stated that the company aims to keep food prices low, but tariffs on countries like Costa Rica, Peru and Colombia are driving up costs for imported goods such as bananas, avocados, coffee and roses.
Benzinga's Edge Rankings place Walmart in the 92nd percentile for momentum and the 83rd percentile for growth, reflecting its strong performance in both areas. Check the detailed report <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/WMT">here</a>.&nbsp;

Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives has maintained bullish views on Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) stock and believes Elon Musk is now focused on the EV giant.
What Happened: "This is a different Musk than we saw over the last one, three months. Dedicated, focused on Tesla, driving the next initiative." Ives said in an appearance <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/video/2025/05/20/dan-ives-on-tesla-this-is-a-watershed-moment-for-autonomy-more-bullish-after-hearing-elon-musk.html">on</a> CNBC's Closing Bell on Tuesday.
Ives also said he believes Musk is doubling down in terms of Tesla's autonomous driving and robotaxi exploits. "Autonomous, Robotaxi, June, Austin, I view as a watershed moment for Tesla, and he's not backing away." Ives said.
Ives also said he believes there's a trillion-dollar market cap for Tesla, when talking about Autonomous driving and robotics, leading to him feeling "more bullish" following Musk's interview with CNBC on Tuesday.
Ives also believes that Musk's stepping away from his political activities with the Trump administration, as well as DOGE, has helped Tesla's brand image and boosted investor confidence.
Why It Matters: Ives's comments signal Musk <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45519469/tesla-stock-rises-after-musk-reaffirms-leadership-and-business-rebound">reaffirming his commitment</a> to Tesla as well as autonomous driving and robotaxis. The billionaire signaled that Tesla would <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45529030/elon-musk-confirms-tesla-robotaxi-launch-is-on-track-for-next-month-these-things-happen-slowly-but-then-all-at-once">begin rolling out Robotaxis</a> in Austin in June and believes they could be ramped up to 1,000 vehicles in the coming months.
Musk also reiterated that Tesla could create a proprietary ride-sharing platform that could allow owners to also add or subtract their vehicles to Tesla's autonomous fleet, as he brushed off <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/05/45535283/elon-musk-brushes-off-potential-tesla-uber-deal-believes-owners-could-add-their-cars-to-ev-giants-autonomous-fleet-instead">any potential deals</a> with Uber Technologies Inc.

Cryptocurrency analyst Willy Woo says Bitcoin&#8217;s (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) next leap into mainstream finance may hinge on a minor rejig.
What Happened: "I have no opinions on whether changing Sats units to Bitcoins is a good idea but it would make BTC compatible with the financial world. Right now most banks cannot book a currency with 8 decimal points," he wrote on X Tuesday.

A satoshi equals 0.00000001 BTC, meaning a $3 coffee shows up as 0.000028 BTC at checkout. Proponents say whole-number pricing would read more like familiar fiat quotes. Woo argues the tweak would "make BTC compatible with the financial world" without touching its code.

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is making significant strides in humanoid robotics, with CEO Elon Musk revealing that the company&#8217;s Optimus robot is developing the ability to learn tasks by watching videos, similar to human learning patterns.
What Happened: In a recent <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEh06X4YMwk">interview</a> with CNBC at Tesla headquarters, Musk explained that while Optimus currently learns through human demonstration using motion capture technology, the company is close to achieving a major breakthrough.
&#8220;I think there&#8217;s certain threshold breakthroughs that we think we can achieve, where if Optimus can watch videos, YouTube videos or how-to videos or whatever, and based on that video, just like a human can, learn how to do that thing,&#8221; Musk said. &#8220;Then you really have a task extensibility that is dramatic, because it can learn anything very quickly. So I think we&#8217;ll get there in the next year.&#8221;
This development was reinforced by Tesla Optimus Engineering lead Milan Kovac, who elaborated on X: &#8220;One of our goals is to have Optimus learn straight from internet videos of humans doing tasks. Those are often 3rd person views captured by random cameras.&#8221; 
Kovac added that &#8220;many new skills are emerging through this process,&#8221; which can be activated via voice or text commands and run on &#8220;a single neural network on the bot.&#8221;

During Tesla&#8217;s first quarter earnings call, Musk revealed that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44941025/tesla-optimus-robot-hit-by-chinas-rare-earth-magnet-crackdown-elon-musk-says-thousands-may-be-ready-by-year-end-but-no-guarantees-when-you-have-a-complex-manufactured-product">China&#8217;s new export restrictions on rare earth magnets</a>—critical components in Optimus actuators—have disrupted the supply chain.
&#8220;We&#8217;re working through that with China. Hopefully, we&#8217;ll get a license to use the rare earth magnets. China wants some assurances that these are not used for military purposes, which, obviously, they&#8217;re not,&#8221; Musk explained.
The humanoid robot market represents massive potential, with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/05/45173327/teslas-optimus-vs-xpengs-iron-the-5-trillion-iron-man-showdown">Morgan Stanley projecting a $5 trillion</a> global market by 2050. Musk believes humanoid robots will become &#8220;the biggest product ever&#8221; with &#8220;insatiable&#8221; demand, aiming to produce a million robots by 2030.

Elon Musk Says Tesla's Optimus Can Learn Tasks By Watching YouTube Videos Just Like A Human

Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) Chairman Michael Saylor used the classic DeLorean sports car and the science fiction film franchise &#8220;Back to the Future&#8221; to advocate for Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) on Tuesday.
What happened: Saylor is known for sharing AI-generated photos and videos of himself to advocate for the apex cryptocurrency.&nbsp;
His latest X post showed him wearing an orange puffer vest over a blue denim jacket, very similar to the costume worn by the protagonist of the 1985 film &#8220;Back to the Future.&#8221;
Behind Saylor is a DeLorean DMC-12, the car used as the time machine in the movie, with its gull-wing doors open. The car featured a Bitcoin logo.&nbsp;
Saylor wrote, &#8220;Once you all have bitcoin, I&#8217;ll go back to the future.&#8221;&nbsp;

Interestingly, the official Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/shib/usd">SHIB</a>) X account chimed in, using the opportunity to promote their own ecosystem.
"Bitcoin may be digital gold, but SHIB is digital culture," Shiba Inu wrote. "The future isn't just store of value… it's meme-fuelled, community-driven velocity."
Shiba Inu also drew attention to their partnership with DeLorean Labs, the Web3 arm of the now-defunct DeLorean Motor Company. Notably, the two brands teamed up for a non-fungible token giveaway initiative in November 2024.
"DeLorean Labs is building the roads we race on," Shiba Inu said, hinting at a major collaboration.
DeLorean Labs didn&#8217;t immediately respond to Benzinga&#8217;s request for comment.

Why It Matters: The DMC was an American car manufacturer founded by John DeLorean in 1975. It produced just one model, from early 1981 to late 1982—<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/21/07/21815188/wall-street-crime-and-punishment-john-delorean-and-the-highway-to-ruin">a slick, futuristic two-seater DeLorean sports car</a> notable for its funky gull-wing doors. However, the vehicle ran into financial difficulties soon after. The company filed for bankruptcy in 1982 and ceased production after a brief period.
Italian automotive designer Giorgetto Giugiaro, who designed the DMC DeLorean that featured in &#8220;Back to the Future,&#8221; has <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/23/12/36319357/back-to-the-future-deloreans-legendary-designer-calls-tesla-cybertruck-picasso-of-automobiles-even-a">noted similarities</a> in the brushed&nbsp;stainless-steel outer body&nbsp;panels with Tesla Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) Cybertruck.&nbsp;
