Amazon.com, Inc. founder Jeff Bezos has long admired Sony Group Corporation's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SONY#NYSE">SONY</a>) mission to transform Japan's reputation for quality, and its legacy has also delivered impressive long-term gains for investors.
What Happened: In a 2012 interview with host Charlie Rose, Bezos highlighted Sony's postwar mission as a rare example of a company setting a purpose bigger than itself.
"Right after World War II, Akio Morita — the guy who founded Sony — set as the mission for Sony that they were going to make Japan known for quality," Bezos said.
"You have to remember, this was a time when Japan was known for cheap, copycat products. And Morita didn't say, ‘We're going to make Sony known for quality.' He said, ‘We're going to make Japan known for quality.' He chose a mission for Sony that was bigger than Sony."

Bezos explained that this philosophy inspired Amazon's own mission to become "Earth's most customer-centric company," aiming for impact far beyond its own bottom line.

Why It's Important: Sony was founded on May 7, 1946, in Tokyo, Japan, by engineer Masaru Ibuka and physicist Akio Morita. As of today, May 7, 2025, the company marks its 79th anniversary.
Originally named Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo K.K., Sony started by repairing radios and soon became a global pioneer in electronics, entertainment, and gaming.
If you had invested $1,000 in Sony stock exactly 40 years ago, on May 7, 1985, you would now hold an investment worth approximately $21,203, accounting for all the adjustments.
What&#8217;s Next: Today, Sony's semiconductor division remains the world's largest image sensor supplier, providing key components for devices like Apple Inc.'s iPhones — though this may change, as reports suggest Cupertino plans to switch to Samsung Electronics' camera sensors as early as 2026.
Still, in 2024, Sony marked a major milestone, announcing it had <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/emerging-markets/24/12/42552200/sony-semiconductor-hits-20-billion-image-sensor-shipments-plans-expansion">shipped over 20 billion image sensors</a>, doubling its total in just five years since reaching 10 billion units in May 2019.
The company behind PlayStation is expected to report its fourth-quarter earnings on May 13, 2025. In its previous earnings <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43700230/sony-q3-earnings-beats-expectations-raises-outlook-as-ps5-sales-and-streaming-revenues-climb">report for the third quarter</a>, Sony posted strong results.
The company's total sales grew 18% compared to the same period last year, reaching $28.97 billion (4.41 trillion yen), higher than analysts&#8217; expectations of $23.78 billion.
During the same quarter, Sony&#8217;s music business grew strongly, with revenue rising 14% to ¥481.7 billion and profit (operating income) jumping 28% to ¥97.4 billion. The company's film and TV segment also did well, with revenue up 9% to ¥398.2 billion.&nbsp;
Sony, which was listed on the New York Stock Exchange in 1970, currently has a market capitalization of $155 billion, making it the 99th most valuable company in the world by market cap. Over the past year, Sony shares have surged by 53.21%, and they are up 18.63% year-to-date, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Jeff Bezos Once Admired How Sony Set Out To Change Japan's Image After World War II — And If You'd Put $1,000 Into The Company's Stock 40 Years Ago, Here's How Much You'd Have Today

She embodies the American nightmare, "Shark Tank" investor Kevin O'Leary said of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) during an April 25 appearance on CNN's "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/shorts/PUCX1IQypgQ">NewsNight</a>."
O&#8217;Leary argued that AOC&#8217;s views on wealth and capitalism contrast with what he considers the American dream, which he believes should be exemplified by leaders like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg. The conversation quickly made its way to social media, reigniting a fierce debate around capitalism and economic aspiration in the U.S.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">&#8216;The American Dream Is Our No. 1 Export&#8217;</h2>
O&#8217;Leary expanded on his message in an <a href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/DI6l_uypsx5">Instagram reel</a> posted two days later, saying, &#8220;The ambassador of America, the CEO, the president—they have to embody the American dream. That&#8217;s their number one job.&#8221;
He stressed that this responsibility shapes how the world sees the U.S. &#8220;Our number one export is not technology or energy. It&#8217;s the American dream. People come to America to achieve the American dream,&#8221; he added.
He emphasized that public figures should reflect ideals of growth and success, not opposition to wealth-building. His remarks targeted what he sees as the dangers of anti-capitalist sentiment among political leaders.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">AOC&#8217;s $39.95 Shirt And 82% Margin</h2>
Though critical, O&#8217;Leary acknowledged the business savvy behind AOC&#8217;s own brand. He referenced her popular &#8220;Tax the Rich&#8221; T-shirts, priced at $39.95, saying during the Instagram clip, &#8220;I buy her T-shirts. She has an 82% margin on that, proving that inside of every socialist is a capitalist trying to get out.&#8221;
Her remarks drew attention to the contradiction he sees in leveraging capitalist tools—like merchandise—for a message that challenges wealth accumulation.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Musk And Zuckerberg As Capitalist Role Models</h2>
O&#8217;Leary also pointed to entrepreneurs like Musk, CEO of Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), and Zuckerberg, who leads Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) as prime examples of the American dream realized. In a January &#8220;NewsNight&#8221;<a href="https://transcripts.cnn.com/show/cnap/date/2025-01-15/segment/01"> interview</a>, he said, &#8220;Zuck was a college student once.

Musk and Zuckerberg were praised by O'Leary not just for their wealth but for their broader impact—job creation, tax contributions, and technological innovation. &#8220;We should be celebrating this,&#8221; O&#8217;Leary added.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A New Generation With A New Dream</h2>
While O&#8217;Leary defends traditional capitalist values, younger Americans appear to be shifting priorities. <a href="https://static1.squarespace.com/static/633f0603fdaa7311ba384d21/t/6797d9c1641c8612e8a46b1a/1738004946123/CSS_AmericanDreamReport.pdf">A recent study</a> from the University of California, Los Angeles, found that today&#8217;s workers are less focused on amassing wealth and more concerned with financial security, work-life balance, and mental health.

President Donald Trump stated, on Wednesday, that he has no intention of easing the 145% tariff on Chinese imports.
What Happened:  During an Oval Office press session, he was asked about the possibility of reducing tariffs, to which he replied, "No,&#8221; <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5288978-trump-says-he-wont-soften-china-tariffs-ahead-of-trade-talks/">reported</a> The Hill.
In April, the Trump administration announced reciprocal tariff exemptions on electronics, including phones and computers, from China and other countries. However, when questioned about extending these exemptions to products like car seats, Trump dismissed the idea, emphasizing simplicity in tariff policies.
His remarks were made during the swearing-in ceremony for David Perdue, the new U.S. ambassador to China. The comments come just days before a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45242461/donald-trumps-trade-war-sparks-first-major-us-china-talks-scott-bessent-jamieson-greer-to-meet-chinese-delegation-in-geneva">planned meeting with Chinese officials</a>, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer.
Overseas leaders had suggested that U.S. senior leadership was open to negotiating tariffs, but Trump refuted this claim, urging them to review their records. 
&#8220;They said we initiated? Well, I think they ought to go back and study their files,&#8221; said Trump, according to the report.
He reiterated that any reduction in tariffs would require China's cooperation in halting fentanyl imports, a drug linked to a national emergency declared by the White House.

Why It Matters: The upcoming trade talks in Geneva, Switzerland, mark a significant moment in the ongoing U.S.-China trade conflict. This will be the first major face-to-face discussion since the trade war began, involving Bessent and Greer meeting with senior Chinese officials. The talks are crucial as they could potentially reshape the economic landscape between the two nations.
Amidst these developments,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45246445/china-warns-us-not-to-use-coercion-and-extortion-tactics-ahead-of-first-major-trade-talks-in-geneva-says-it-will-never-accept-it-if-americans-use-dialogue-as-smokescreen">China has issued a warning</a>&nbsp;to the U.S. against using coercion tactics during the negotiations, emphasizing that any dialogue should not serve as a &#8220;smokescreen&#8221; for extortion. This highlights the tension and high stakes involved in the discussions.
Furthermore, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45245680/trump-to-reportedly-lower-china-tariffs-to-60-in-coming-weeks-predicts-investment-strategist-could-be-the-last-big-upside-catalyst-for-a-while">speculation about potential tariff reductions</a> has been circulating, with some analysts predicting a decrease to 60% in the coming weeks. 
However, Trump&#8217;s recent statements suggest that any such move would be contingent on significant concessions from China, particularly regarding the fentanyl crisis, according to The Hill report.

Cuban's post came as retailers warn of growing disruptions tied to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/05/45183970/behind-the-empty-docks-how-trumps-145-tariffs-are-gutting-u-s-supply-chains">Trump's 145% tariff</a> on most Chinese imports, which has already caused a sharp drop in incoming shipments. Freight vessel arrivals at the Port of Los Angeles are on track to be down 35% year-over-year for the week ending May 10, according to <a href="https://volumes.portoptimizer.com/">Port Optimizer</a>.
That supply squeeze could leave store shelves empty in the coming months, with shortages expected for everyday goods like apparel, toys, low-cost footwear, and some food products, including apple juice and fish.
Retailers are also struggling to price products amid the uncertainty. "They're making their holiday buying decisions now," Jonathan Gold, vice president of supply chain and customs policy for the National Retail Federation, told <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/economics/product-shortages-empty-store-shelves-loom-falling-shipments-china-rcna202812">NBC News</a> in late April. "It's a challenge for folks to figure out how to properly order and price with all the uncertainty that's out there on the tariffs.&#8221;

Small businesses, in particular, are feeling the pinch. Jessica Berger, founder of the pet company Bundle x Joy, said her latest shipment from China came with a $180,000 tariff bill. &#8220;Luckily for me, I have the resources, but six months ago, I wouldn't have. It would potentially have put me out of business,&#8221; she told NBC News.
Cuban also warned on X that the broader impact of these policies will hit hardest in smaller communities.

He's outlasted rivals, spotted winners early, and—let's be honest—become a billionaire many times over doing it. But even Buffett knows when it's time to tip his hat.
And for him, nobody earns that gesture quite like Jeff Bezos.
Buffett has openly admired fellow top-ranking billionaire Bezos for years. While he didn't invest in Amazon early—something he's joked about regretting—Buffett never underestimated Bezos' rare genius.

</ul>
In a <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2016/05/02/warren-buffett-says-hes-in-awe-of-jeff-bezos-genius.html">2016 CNBC interview</a>, Buffett said, "There are certain people you do not want to try to beat at their own game and certainly Jeff Bezos would be No. 1."
What set Bezos apart? It wasn't a shiny new invention or some scientific breakthrough. "It isn't that [Bezos has] gotten some breakthrough or found some molecule or come up with some incredible invention," Buffett explained. Instead, Bezos had "shown an amazing talent" by taking everyday things people already bought and "figuring out a way to make people happier buying those products."
"That's remarkable," Buffett added.
By 2017, Buffett's admiration only deepened. Speaking again to CNBC, he called Bezos "the most remarkable business person of our age."&nbsp;
What amazed him most was Bezos' ability to dominate two wildly different industries at once: online retail and cloud computing. "I've never seen a guy <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/45074825/jeff-bezos-says-an-employee-looked-at-me-like-i-was-the-stupidest-person-theyd-ever-seen-then-offered-a-simple-idea-that-changed-amazon">succeed in two businesses almost simultaneously</a> that are really quite divergent in terms of customers and all the operations," Buffett said. "I can't think of another example like it."
Trending: Can you guess how many retire with a $5,000,000 nest egg? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/5mil-nest-egg-adv">The percentage may shock you</a>.
Buffett even admitted he underestimated Amazon's potential. "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/09/40693497/warren-buffett-admitted-he-was-too-dumb-and-an-idiot-for-not-investing-in-amazon-early-on-but-finall">I was too dumb to realize what was going to happen</a>," he said, calling himself out for missing the early boat. "I underestimated the brilliance and the execution."
Eventually, Berkshire Hathaway got on board. The company purchased its first Amazon shares in early 2019. As of May 2025, Berkshire holds about 10 million Amazon shares—worth roughly $2.19 billion.&nbsp;
Buffett clarified that the buy wasn't his idea but came from one of Berkshire's younger investment managers, a sign of the firm's evolving approach toward growth and tech stocks.
So while Buffett may have arrived late to Amazon's meteoric rise, he backed the man he calls unbeatable—and the most remarkable business mind of his time.

Why It's Important: Members of Congress are allowed to buy and sell stocks as long as they properly disclose the transaction.
The process has drawn scrutiny from the public and retail investors as members of Congress could have inside information and time their trades accordingly. Committee assignments in particular, often draw red flags from investors.
Greene serves on the House Committee on Oversight and Accountability and the House Committee on Homeland Security with several subcommittee appointments. The congresswoman's past trade in technology and cybersecurity stocks has drawn attention with her role within Homeland Security.
Greene&#8217;s past trades of Palantir Technologies and a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44255172/marjorie-taylor-greene-buys-more-bitcoin-etf-shares-ahead-of-trumps-strategic-reserve-executive-order"> Bitcoin ETF </a>have drawn criticism along with the timing of her trades, as she is a close ally to President Donald Trump. 
When asked previously about buying stocks earlier this year that soared days later after Trump announced a pause to tariffs, Greene<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/04/44852406/marjorie-taylor-greene-brushes-off-stock-buying-criticism-says-portfolio-manager-bought-the-dip"> brushed aside the criticism.</a>
&#8220;I think that criticism is laughable. President Trump has been talking about tariffs for decades,&#8221; Greene told reporters when asked about the trades at a recent town hall event in Georgia in a clip <a href="https://x.com/unusual_whales/status/1912456434081480777" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">shared </a>by Unusual Whales. The congresswoman used the opportunity to boast about her stock performance, which ranked her as one of the top trading members of Congress in 2024.
&#8220;I don&#8217;t place my buys and sells," Greene said, citing an agreement she has with her portfolio manager, who handles all the buying and selling of stocks. &#8220;He did a great job. Guess what he did. He bought the dip. And that&#8217;s what anybody that has financial sense does."
Greene also said her portfolio manager did not have inside information, everything was public and a potential tariff pause wasn&#8217;t a secret.
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) has reintroduced legislation that would ban members of Congress from trading or holding individual stocks.
The bill is known as the Preventing Elected Leaders from Owning Securities and Investments Act, or PELOSI Act based on the first letter of each of the main words. The name takes aim at the congresswoman and former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).  
&#8220;Members of Congress should be fighting for the people they were elected to serve — not day trading at the expense of their constituents,&#8221; Hawley&nbsp;<a href="https://www.hawley.senate.gov/hawley-reintroduces-pelosi-act-to-ban-congress-from-trading-stocks/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a>. &#8220;Americans have seen politician after politician turn a profit using information not available to the general public.&#8221;
Hawley said the bill will help &#8220;restore Americans&#8217; trust in our nation&#8217;s legislative body.&#8221;
Hawley&#8217;s bill is being reintroduced as President&nbsp;Donald Trump&nbsp;<a href="https://time.com/7280114/donald-trump-2025-interview-transcript/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">said&nbsp;</a>he would support such a ban.
&#8220;Well, I watched Nancy Pelosi get rich through insider information, and I would be okay with it. If they send it to me, I would do it,&#8221; Trump told TIME.
Trump said he would sign the ban if the bill passes Congress.
While Pelosi makes headlines for her trades, it&#8217;s important to remember that<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/04/44852406/marjorie-taylor-greene-brushes-off-stock-buying-criticism-says-portfolio-manager-bought-the-dip" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;it is both Republican</a>&nbsp;and Democratic members of Congress who are profiting from buying and selling stocks and options while in office, with some trades coming with questionable timing or having a connection to committees they serve on.
In 2024, a list of the top-performing traders in Congress included six Republicans and four Democrats.
