A viral post on X speculates that President Donald Trump might see a strategic upside in a recession.
What Happened: On Thursday, popular newsletter, The Kobeissi Letter, posted on X, drawing parallels between Trump&#8217;s economic agenda and the current state of the markets and the broader macro-environment.

&#8220;In a way, President Trump may actually want a recession,&#8221; the post says. &#8220;A recession achieves most of Trump&#8217;s economic goals at once,&#8221; referring to his campaign promises of low inflation, treasury yields, a reduction in trade deficits, a rate cut by the Federal Reserve, and lower oil prices.

The post comes amid soaring U.S. Treasury Yields, with 30-Year yields at 5.04%, the 20-Year at 5.05%, and the 10-Year note at 4.53%. 
On Wednesday, the sale of $16 billion worth of 20-Year Treasury notes saw weak demand, marking a new low for U.S. Government bonds and rattling equity markets this week. 
The SPDR S&amp;P 500 Trust ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) is down 0.85%, followed by the Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), which tracks the Nasdaq, and the SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIA#NYSE">DIA</a>), both down 0.11% and 1.16%, respectively, this week so far.
The post says the Trump team may be recalibrating its messaging strategy after &#8220;realizing the trade deal headlines won't work anymore.&#8221;
&#8220;A recession may be the &#8216;best&#8217; solution after years of inflation and &#8216;free&#8217; money,&#8221; the thread concludes, while quoting a chart showing the S&amp;P 500&#8217;s nearly 80-point decline in a span of 30 minutes, without any &#8220;major&#8221; news.
Why It Matters: Several leading economists, including former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45556622/larry-summers-asks-trump-to-retreat-on-taxes-just-like-he-did-on-tariffs-few-more-days-like-this-and-recession-will-be-likely">have warned Trump</a> to walk back on his proposed tax agenda, like he did with the tariffs, citing pressure on Treasuries.
Early this week, Summers warned that the U.S. was at risk of a <a href="https://benzinga.com/25/05/45484394/gold-hits-3500-as-larry-summers-says-u-s-market-is-on-a-path-to-crisis-like-uks-2022-meltdown?_gl=1&#x2A;9dyw9l&#x2A;_gcl_au&#x2A;OTU0MzA1MzE4LjE3NDcwMTIxNDM.&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;ZGVsZXRlZA..&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;czE3NDc5NzczOTMkbzY4JGcxJHQxNzQ3OTc4MjA4JGowJGwwJGgw">fiscal crisis similar</a> to what the U.K. experienced in 2022, calling it Trump&#8217;s &#8220;Liz Truss Moment,&#8221; in reference to the British Prime Minister who had to quit following the crisis.
Economist Mohamed El-Erian had a more balanced take on <a href="https://benzinga.com/25/04/44892570/fairer-trade-or-economic-trainwreck-elerian-breaks-down-the-administrations-two-futures">the administration&#8217;s policies</a>, having said last month that they could either result in fairer global trade, alongside lower tariff and non-tariff barriers, or it could lead to stagflation, which he calls &#8220;Jimmy Carter all over again,&#8221; referring to the 1970s, when Jimmy Carter was President.

Newly installed Social Security Commissioner Frank Bisignano told more than 500 field-office managers this week that he was not &#8220;looking for a job&#8221; and had to "Google&#8221; Social Security before accepting the post offered to him by the Trump administration.
What Happened: According to an audio recording <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/US/new-head-social-security-hired-wall-street-tells/story?id=122075152">obtained</a> by ABC News, "I'm one of the great Googlers on the East Coast," Bisignano joked, adding that his first reaction was, &#8220;What the heck's the commissioner of Social Security?"
Bisignano, 64, spent three decades at Citi, JPMorgan and Fiserv, where he earned a reputation for aggressive cost-cutting and big mergers, including Fiserv's $22 billion takeover of First Data. He arrives at Social Security with no prior government experience, but White House spokesperson Liz Huston says his fintech track record will help "modernize the agency and improve its efficiency."
His outsider status comes at a fraught moment. Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44328962/1-9-billion-federal-scam-2-trillion-in-federal-waste-the-latest-findings-from-doge-as-elon-musk-says-money-is-poorly-spent">eyeing</a> all federal benefit programs for savings, fueling workforce anxiety after years of hiring freezes and office closures, reports the Associated Press. On Capitol Hill, a House bill passed Thursday would cut payroll-tax revenues by boosting child-tax credits, a change <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45559631/trump-administration-attempts-to-block-release-of-doge-records-in-an-appeal-to-supreme-court">analysts warn</a> could widen Social Security's cash-flow gap.

Bisignano told staff the program is "not going away" and said President Trump asked him to repeat that assurance "every day." Still, ethics filings show he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45511635/trumps-ssa-head-frank-bisignano-granted-tax-break-as-he-takes-over-struggling-agency-facing-cuts-and-scrutiny">secured a tax deferral</a> on $484 million in Fiserv stock as part of his federal-service transition, raising questions about conflicts of interest while the agency explores private-sector cloud deals.
Why It Matters: In recent Senate testimony, Bisignano vowed not to pursue privatization and instead <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45338754/trumps-new-social-security-commissioner-says-hes-fundamentally-a-doge-person-what-that-could-mean-for-your-benefits">flagged three goals</a>: shrinking call-center wait times, deploying AI to detect fraud and reopening shuttered field offices. Union leaders counter that any technology upgrade must be coupled with more front-line hiring to handle 70 million beneficiaries.
For now, the "Great Googler-in-Chief," as Bisignano joked he might be labeled, has launched a nationwide listening tour and ordered a 90-day review of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/politics/25/03/44482110/musks-doge-vs-ssa-trumps-nominee-frank-bisignano-tackles-social-security-crisis-amid-privatization-debate">modernization projects</a> shelved under DOGE. Whether Wall Street speed can mesh with an 89-year-old program's bureaucracy may decide if Silicon-style disruption becomes Social Security's lifeline — or its latest headache.

Frank Bisignano Had To Google Social Security When He First Got A Call For The Job: 'What The Heck's The Commissioner…'

In a 215-214 vote, the House of Representatives passed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/25/05/45345409/trumps-big-beautiful-bill-banks-on-huge-medicaid-cuts-as-its-cost-saving-centerpiece-see-who-risks-losing-coverage-under-the-gop-proposal">President Donald Trump's "big, beautiful" budget reconciliation bill</a>, including major proposed cuts to federal retirement benefits within the Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS).
What Happened: The House's budget package, determined mainly along party lines, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45561526/house-gop-retreats-on-retirement-cuts-after-backlash-protections-restored-fers-changes-pushed-to-202">initially included multiple cost-saving reforms impacting federal employees</a>.
These measures were outlined to aid fund tax cuts and increased immigration enforcement. Notably, a proposal to move annuity calculations from a "high-3" to a "high-5" salary average was scratched on account of bipartisan pressure.
However, the bill still seeks to remove the FERS supplement for most federal workers retiring before age 62. As <a href="https://www.govexec.com/pay-benefits/2025/05/house-passes-reconciliation-bill-cuts-federal-employee-retirement-benefits/405523/">per</a> the Government Executive, this benefit is typically worth around a third of post-retirement income.
Other provisions, such as a requirement for new recruits to either contribute nearly 10% of their basic pay toward retirement or work without civil service protections, remain in the bill. A few exemptions were included for law enforcement officers and others, subject to mandatory retirement ages.

Why It Matters: If enacted in its current form after moving through the Senate, the bill would dissolve a crucial bridge benefit that supports early retirees until Social Security eligibility, which <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45534539/social-security-full-retirement-age-shift-means-filing-at-62-could-chop-your-check-by-30-what-every-worker-born-in-1960-or-later-must-know">rises to 67 in 2025</a>. The FERS supplement elimination is scheduled to begin January 1, 2028, but includes a safeguard for those already eligible by that date.
The American Federation of Government Employees President Everett Kelley labelled the cuts "toxic," and said they could "drive out experienced and dedicated federal workers" while having only a nominal effect on overall spending.
Bill Shackelford of the National Active and Retired Federal Employees Association highlighted that even retirees who accepted early separation packages were likely to be impacted retroactively.

Sam-Altman Founded World Token Rips 24%—What's Going On?

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) reportedly plans to launch AI-powered smart glasses in late 2026 to compete with Meta Platforms, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) Ray-Bans.
What Happened: Apple has ramped up efforts to begin mass production of prototypes by the end of this year with overseas suppliers, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-05-22/apple-plans-glasses-for-2026-as-part-of-ai-push-nixes-watch-with-camera">reported</a> Bloomberg, citing people with knowledge of the matter.
The glasses are expected to have cameras, microphones and speakers — these integrations will enable the device to interpret the external environment and respond to voice commands through Siri.

Moreover, they could support functions like making calls, playing music, providing real-time translations and offering navigation assistance, the report noted.
This strategy is similar to that of Meta's existing eyewear and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45534622/sergey-brin-comes-out-of-retirement-to-work-on-gemini-admits-he-made-a-lot-of-mistakes-with-google-glass-as-the-tech-giant-ramps-up-efforts-to-compete-with-meta-and-apple">upcoming devices powered</a> by Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) Android XR platform.
Apple has also reportedly shelved a separate project to develop a camera-equipped smartwatch that can analyze its surroundings, the report added.

Why It&#8217;s Important: Apple's latest comes after the tech giant received a tepid response to its Vision Pro headset. The company's first-generation AR/VR headset struggled to gain traction with consumers due to its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41306527/apples-low-cost-vision-pro-could-hit-the-shelves-next-year-everything-you-need-to-know-about-iphone">high price and limited use cases</a>.
The Tim Cook-led company could also be planning to enter the growing market of AI-driven devices. On Wednesday, OpenAI <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/05/45550033/openai-teams-up-with-iphone-designer-jony-ive-as-chatgpt-maker-makes-push-into-hardware-apple-shares-slide">announced a collaboration</a> with former Apple chief design officer Jony Ive to launch new hardware products starting next year.
Price Action: As per <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Apple shares declined by 0.36% on Thursday but rebounded with a 0.70% gain in after-hours trading.
According to Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings, Apple earned a growth score of 33.12%. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">Click here to see how it compares with other leading stocks</a> like Meta and Alphabet.

Apple Could Reportedly Launch AI Smart Glasses Next Year And Here Is What All They Are Expected To Do

Top U.S. banks are contemplating a joint venture to issue a dollar-pegged stablecoin in an attempt to counter the increasing competition from the cryptocurrency sector, according to a report dated Thursday.
What Happened: Companies co-owned by&nbsp;JPMorgan Chase&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>),&nbsp;Bank of America&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BAC#NYSE">BAC</a>),&nbsp;Citigroup&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/C#NYSE">C</a>), and&nbsp;Wells Fargo&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WFC#NYSE">WFC</a>) are exploring the possibility of a joint stablecoin, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing sources familiar with the matter. The discussions, still in their infancy, involve Early Warning Services, the operator of&nbsp;mobile payment app Zelle, and the Clearing House,&nbsp;a real-time payment network.
The decision to proceed with the stablecoin will hinge on several factors, including&nbsp;legislative actions around stablecoins and&nbsp;the demand for them. The banking industry has been gearing up for the potential widespread adoption of stablecoins, which could divert&nbsp;the deposits and transactions they&nbsp;handle.
A Bank of America spokesperson declined to comment when contacted by Benzinga. Responses from other banks are awaited.

Why It Matters: The potential joint venture by these banking giants comes at a time when the Senate is making strides towards the final passage of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/05/45510057/senate-crypto-bill-passes-key-vote-genius-act-moves-toward-final-passage">GENIUS Act, also known as the stablecoin bill</a>. The proposed legislation aims to establish the first U.S. regulatory framework for issuers of stablecoins—digital tokens that are tied to fiat currencies like the dollar.
The SEC has already clarified that <a href="https://www.sec.gov/newsroom/speeches-statements/statement-stablecoins-040425#_ftn4">certain stablecoins</a>, particularly those pegged to the U.S. dollar and backed by low-risk, liquid assets, are not securities.

JPMorgan, Bank Of America, And Other Banking Titans Discussing Joint Stablecoin To Tackle Crypto Competition: Report

Billionaire hedge-fund founder Ray Dalio on Thursday urged investors to "be afraid of the bond market," arguing that the United States is entering a "very, very serious" debt spiral that could spark a funding crisis within three years.
What Happened: Speaking at a Paley Media Council forum in New York, the Bridgewater Associates founder, speaking <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/22/ray-dalio-says-to-fear-the-bond-market-as-deficit-becomes-critical.html">with</a> CNBC, likened the federal balance sheet to "a patient whose vital signs are flashing," and said deficits near 6.5% of GDP are more than global buyers can absorb.
&#8220;I would say that if we're really looking over the next three years, to give or take a year or two, that we're in that type of a critical, critical situation," he added.
Dalio's diagnosis follows a string of red flags, which include a weak $16 billion sale of 20-year Treasurys on Wednesday, which <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45550324/us-bond-market-flashing-red-30-year-yield-tops-5-prices-tank-to-october-2023-lows">yanked</a> the 30-year yield above 5% for the first time since 2023, and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s/25/05/45479078/moodys-downgrades-us-credit-rating-over-debt-deficit-concerns">Moody's downgrade</a> of U.S. sovereign debt to Aa1 last week. Investors are now demanding steeper discounts to finance a national debt that has punched past $36 trillion, Treasury data shows.

Much of the pressure comes from Capitol Hill. The House on Thursday <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/05/45564489/trumps-big-tax-bill-clears-the-house-30-year-yields-jump-to-515-as-bond-market-freaks">squeaked through</a> President Donald Trump's "Big, Beautiful Bill," a tax-and-spending package that the Congressional Budget Office estimates would widen the deficit by about $3.8 trillion over a decade. The vote immediately spooked bond traders, pushing 30-year yields to 5.15%.
Why It Matters: Dalio, who also blasted Moody's cut as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/05/45512063/ray-dalio-warns-against-decreasing-value-of-us-dollar-amid-mounting-government-debt-risks-are-greater-than-the-rating-agencies-are-conveying">too mild</a>, argues that ratings agencies underplay the bigger hazard—Washington's temptation to &#8220;print money&#8221; to pay its debts, eroding bondholders' real returns. If investors dump Treasurys en masse, he said, &#8220;there probably will not be enough demand&#8221; to fund new issuance.
Long-dated Treasury ETFs have slumped to 19-month lows, while a spike in yields <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/05/45550679/treasury-yields-top-5-these-20-stocks-tanked-in-just-one-hour?utm_source=chatgpt.com">wiped nearly $200 billion</a> from growth-stock valuations in a single hour on Wednesday. Dalio cautioned that such volatility could intensify if Congress fails to craft a bipartisan fiscal plan. "Anything that means ‘give me more' widens the hole," he said.
With key Senate votes and another slate of Treasury auctions looming, traders are bracing for further turbulence.

Ray Dalio Warns Investors To Be 'Afraid' Of The Bond Market, Calls America's Debt Spiral 'Very Serious'

Intuit Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTU#NASDAQ">INTU</a>) posted a <a href="https://benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45575402/intuit-q3-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-raised-fy-guidance-company-seeing-exceptional-momentum-across-platforms">strong third-quarter</a> performance fueled by explosive growth in its TurboTax Live business. 
What Happened: During the earnings call on Thursday, the company&#8217;s CEO, Sasan Goodarzi, called it a &#8220;breakthrough adoption year&#8221; for its tax-prep product, TurboTax Live, highlighting the significant traction that the product has gained across consumer and business segments during the year.
The company reported a 47% year-over-year increase in TurboTax Live revenue and a 24% rise in customers using its AI-enabled service, helping push its overall Consumer Group revenue, which the product is a part of, to $4 billion.
&#8220;We saw adoption within our base,&#8221; Goodarzi said during the call, referring to Intuit&#8217;s nearly 100 million customers and users worldwide.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/05/45579297/peter-schiff-says-a-president-shouldnt-sell-white-house-tours-and-pocket-the-proceeds-as-trump-prepares-to-have-dinner-with-memecoin-holders">Peter Schiff Says A President Shouldn&#8217;t &#8216;Sell White House Tours&#8217; And Pocket The Proceeds As Trump Prepares To Have Dinner With Memecoin Holders</a>
Goodarzi emphasized that AI played a critical role in simplifying the user experience, saying that the company reduced the average return preparation time by 12% and enabled over half of its customers to finish their annual tax filings in under an hour.
Despite the strong traction, Intuit sees room for improvement. Gudari notes areas where friction still exists, particularly for users migrating from traditional assisted tax providers. &#8220;There's still so much that we can do to make the end-to-end experience seamless,&#8221; he says.
Why It Matters: TurboTax Live, which blends AI with human experts, brings significant disruption to the traditionally human-led tax preparation market, which has long been dominated by the likes of H&amp;R Block Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HRB#NYSE">HRB</a>), which has already been working with Microsoft Corp.&#8217;s Azure OpenAI to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/12/36245483/ai-can-help-do-your-taxes-how-h-r-block-utilizes-microsofts-azure-openai-for-customers">streamline tax preparation</a> process for nearly two years.
Early this week, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>) analyst Kash Rangan called the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45497740/intuit-q3-preview-revenue-beat-likely-benefits-from-being-a-price-disrupter-says-bullish-analyst">tax-heavy third quarter</a> a &#8220;validation opportunity&#8221; for the company. He also said that Intuit is seeing &#8220;product market fit&#8221; in the assisted tax filing segment, while calling it a &#8220;price disrupter.&#8221;
The company released its <a href="https://benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45575402/intuit-q3-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-raised-fy-guidance-company-seeing-exceptional-momentum-across-platforms">third quarter results</a> on Thursday, reporting $7.75 billion in revenue, beating consensus estimates of $7.56 billion. It posted a profit of $11.65 per share, which came in ahead of estimates at $10.91.
Price Action: The stock was up 0.92% on Thursday, trading at $666.07 per share, and is up 8.03% after hours following its robust third quarter performance.

Intuit CEO Calls It A 'Breakthrough Adoption Year' As TurboTax Live Revenue Jumps—Stock Pops 8% After Hours

China&#8217;s Vice Foreign Minister Ma Zhaoxu held a telephone conversation with U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau on Friday, with both sides agreeing to maintain ongoing communication, according to China&#8217;s Ministry of Foreign Affairs statement released Friday.
What Happened: The diplomatic engagement comes as a 90-day U.S.-China trade truce nears its deadline, with former U.S. Ambassador to Russia, Michael McFaul, calling the lack of direct communication between President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping &#8220;horrible.&#8221;
The leaders have not spoken directly since Trump&#8217;s Jan. 17 pre-inauguration call, despite Trump&#8217;s expressed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45512353/urgent-trump-xi-talks-needed-as-trade-truce-deadline-looms-warns-ex-us-diplomat-slamming-the-horrible-lack-of-contact">willingness to visit China for talks</a>.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent recently clarified that the U.S. will &#8220;continue trading with China&#8221; while reshoring critical supply chains, signaling potential flexibility in trade relations that could impact major <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45512353/urgent-trump-xi-talks-needed-as-trade-truce-deadline-looms-warns-ex-us-diplomat-slamming-the-horrible-lack-of-contact">U.S. companies with Chinese exposure</a>.

Why It Matters: The dialogue occurs against <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45534527/china-warns-of-legal-retaliation-against-us-chip-sanctions-threatens-lawsuits-for-aiding-discriminatory-tech-crackdown">escalating tech tensions</a>. China threatened legal action against entities supporting U.S. semiconductor restrictions, following Washington&#8217;s guidance warning companies against using Huawei Technologies&#8216; Ascend AI chips. 
NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) CEO Jensen Huang criticized U.S. chip export controls as &#8220;exactly wrong for America,&#8221; revealing his company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45513246/nvidia-ceo-jensen-huang-says-chinese-ai-researchers-are-world-class-and-us-companies-are-hiring-a-whole-bunch-of-them">wrote off $5.5 billion in inventory</a> due to restrictions.
Trade complexities deepened with China&#8217;s criticism of the recent U.S.-UK trade pact, which Beijing called detrimental to third-party interests. Chinese researcher Zhang Yansheng described such agreements as &#8220;poison pill clauses&#8221; worse than tariffs, as Washington attempts to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45400750/china-slams-uk-us-trade-pact-finds-it-against-its-interests-this-type-of-poison-pill-clause-is-actually-worse-than-the-tariffs">isolate China from supply chains</a>.

As Trump-Xi Jinping Silence Drags On, China And US Reopen Diplomatic Lines Amid Looming Trade Truce Deadline And Tech Tensions

On Wednesday, Walt Disney Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) filed a lawsuit against YouTube, a subsidiary of Alphabet Inc.'s (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>) Google to stop the appointment of former ESPN executive Justin Connolly as its new global head of media and sports, alleging breach of contract, unfair competition and interference with a contractual relationship.
What Happened: The lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles state court, claims Connolly signed a three-year contract in November 2024 that committed him to Disney through March 1, 2027, reported Reuters, adding that Connolly had a limited one-time termination option.
YouTube was aware of Connolly's contractual obligations, Disney alleged, seeking a court order to block his employment.
YouTube did not immediately respond to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga's</a> request for comments.

YouTube on Thursday confirmed the hire. Connolly will oversee relationships with major media companies and lead its growing live sports portfolio, the report added, citing sources familiar with the matter.
Price Movement: On Thursday, Alphabet Inc.'s Class A shares gained 1.37%, while Class C shares increased by 1.13%. During the same period, Disney shares rose 0.61%, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

What Happened: Bitcoin nearly reached $112,000 during the day, as part of a record-breaking rally that has put the top cryptocurrency into a tailspin.
Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency, also went up roughly 4% during the day, raising its market dominance to 9.3%.
Bitcoin was up over 18% in May, while Ethereum's month-to-date gains shot past 47% as of this writing.&nbsp;
Over $300 million was liquidated from the cryptocurrency market in the last 24 hours, with shorts again bearing the brunt.
Bitcoin&#8217;s Open Interest was largely unchanged in the last 24 hours, while Ethereum witnessed a 9% jump in funds locked in derivatives.&nbsp;
Interestingly, the majority of Binance BTC traders were still short on the leading cryptocurrency.
According to the Crypto Fear and Greed Index, market sentiment has shifted dramatically from &#8220;Neutral&#8221; to &#8220;Greed&#8221; in a month's time.

"This 8-year trendline says it will face a challenge at about $113,500. Since late 2017, it&#8217;s been a tap-and-roll over. Will this time be different?" Barchart speculated.

GameStop, IonQ, Intuit, Advance Auto Parts, Tesla: Why These 5 Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

In a high-stakes ruling that expands presidential authority over independent federal agencies, the U.S. Supreme Court had one notable exception, the Federal Reserve.
What Happened: On Thursday, the apex court granted <a href="https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/25951855-24a966-order/">a</a> stay that allows President Donald Trump to remove members of the National Labor Relations Board and the Merit Systems Protection Board without cause, while carving out an exception for the Federal Reserve.
The Court stated that the &#8220;arguments in this case necessarily implicat[ing] the constitutionality of for-cause removal protections&#8221; do not apply to the Federal Reserve, describing the central bank as a &#8220;uniquely structured, quasi-private entity&#8221; grounded in the historical tradition of the First and Second Banks of the United States.
Associate Justice Elena Kagan joined Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Jackson in slamming the ruling, calling it &#8220;puzzling.&#8221; 
She argued that &#8220;the Federal Reserve's independence rests on the same constitutional and analytic foundations&#8221; as agencies like the NLRB and FTC, calling the Fed exception a &#8220;bespoke&#8221; law meant to calm the markets.
The Court&#8217;s decision is temporary and is only in effect until the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit resolves the government&#8217;s appeal.

Why It Matters: Trump has criticized, and even floated the idea of ousting Fed Chair Jerome Powell several times recently, for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/04/44861571/donald-trump-blasts-too-late-and-wrong-fed-chair-powell-but-polymarket-traders-doubt-his-termination-will-come-fast-enough">not cutting rates</a> fast enough. 
The markets experienced turmoil for days following these comments, before <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44940900/us-futures-dollar-jump-amid-trumps-latest-comments-on-fed-nikkei-rebounds-to-three-week-high">Trump walked away</a>, stating that he had &#8220;no intention&#8221; of firing Powell. 
Economist Nouriel Roubini criticized Trump for his <a href="https://benzinga.com/25/04/44941184/roubini-trump-wants-a-rate-cutbut-powells-restraint-is-the-only-thing-saving-him-from-a-market-meltdown">attacks against Powell</a>, referring to it as &#8220;a repeated own goal,&#8221; while adding that even if he got his way after winning a Supreme Court battle, it would only be a&nbsp;&#8220;pyrrhic victory,&#8221; as it would ultimately only lead to higher bond yields, owing to the &#8220;de-anchoring of inflation expectations.&#8221;

Trump May Not Be Able To Fire Jerome Powell, Supreme Court Signals: Fed A 'Uniquely Structured, Quasi-Private Entity'

Earlier this week, Tucker Carlson agreed with a guest on his show who questioned whether Donald Trump's foreign policy overlapped with his family's business ventures.
What Happened: On an episode of The Tucker Carlson Show, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/06/32750830/hey-its-tucker-carlson-former-fox-anchor-tweets-first-episode-of-new-show-unleashes-fiery-critique-o">which Carlson started</a> on Elon Musk's Twitter, now rebranded as X after parting ways with Fox News, former Navy SEAL Shawn Ryan pointed to the Trump Organization's expansion in the Gulf region, which coincided with new U.S. defense and AI deals, <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5312419-tucker-carlson-on-trump-organization-middle-east-deals-seems-like-corruption/">reported</a> The Hill.
Trump's family business has signed agreements for: a luxury golf resort in Qatar with Qatari Diar, backed by the country's sovereign wealth fund, real estate developments in Riyadh and Jeddah, Saudi Arabia and Trump International Hotel and golf course in Oman, according to the report.
"That stuff kind of worries me," Ryan added, to which Carlson replied, "Well, it seems like corruption, yeah."

Why It's Important: The overlap between Trump's public policy and his private business dealings is reviving old concerns about conflicts of interest. The White House previously dismissed these concerns, calling them "ridiculous," the report said.&nbsp;
Press secretary Karoline Leavitt earlier said Trump is following all conflict-of-interest laws, and the Trump Organization maintains that its assets are in a trust and not directly involved with foreign governments.
During Trump's trip to the Middle East, agreements <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45462404/trump-unveils-over-200-billion-worth-of-deals-with-uae-including-major-etihad-airways-commitment">exceeding $200 billion</a> were finalized between the U.S. and the UAE. Notably, Boeing (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>), GE Aerospace (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GE#NYSE">GE</a>) and Etihad Airways were part of a $14.5 billion portion of these deals.
The visit also resulted in a landmark $1.2 trillion economic accord with Qatar, which <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45446924/trump-secures-12-trillion-qatar-deal-as-boeing-ge-land-record-orders">featured a historic $96 billion purchase</a> by Qatar Airways from Boeing and GE Aerospace.
Former Vice President Mike Pence <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45487988/trumps-middle-east-trip-draws-rare-praise-from-mike-pence-as-very-successful-for-us-economy-amid-historic-boeing-deal-thatll-really-support-american-jobs">praised Trump&#8217;s Middle East trip</a> for its positive impact on the U.S. economy, despite previous political disagreements. Meanwhile, economist Peter Schiff warned that Qatar&#8217;s $200 billion deal with Boeing could lead to i<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/05/45427289/peter-schiff-warns-qatars-200-billion-boeing-deal-could-spike-us-inflation-interest-rates-says-treasury-sell-off-may-follow">ncreased U.S. inflation and interest rates</a>, potentially causing a Treasury sell-off.
