On Monday, the U.S. and China agreed to a temporary reduction in most tariffs on each other&#8217;s goods, marking a considerable easing of trade tensions. As a result, major tech stocks caught in the trade war, such as Apple (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) and Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), climbed more than 4% during the pre-market trading session.
What Happened: The world&#8217;s two largest economies have agreed to a 90-day suspension of &#8220;reciprocal&#8221; tariffs, reducing them from 125% to 10%.&nbsp;However, the U.S. will maintain its 20% tariffs on Chinese imports linked to fentanyl, keeping the overall tariff level on China at 30%, <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/12/us-and-china-agree-to-slash-tariffs-for-90-days.html">reported </a>CNBC.
As per the joint statement, Beijing has also agreed to suspend or lift all non-tariff countermeasures imposed since April 2, including sanctions on certain U.S. companies and export restrictions on key minerals, <a href="https://www.scmp.com/economy/global-economy/article/3309975/china-us-reduce-majority-tariffs-after-first-round-trade-talks?module=top_story&amp;pgtype=homepage">as per</a> the South China Morning Post.
This development comes after intensive trade talks between U.S. and Chinese representatives in Switzerland, with U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent expressing satisfaction with the discussions, stating, &#8220;We had very productive talks&nbsp;and I believe that the&nbsp;venue, here in Lake Geneva,&nbsp;added great equanimity to what&nbsp;was a very positive process.&#8221;
"Neither side wants a decoupling,&#8221; emphasized Bessent. 
Both countries have signaled their commitment to ongoing dialogue on economic and trade policy. Earlier in the day, the official handle of the Chinese Embassy in the U.S. stated, &#8220;high-level meeting on economic and trade affairs were in-depth, candid and constructive,&#8221; citing Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng.

Why It Matters: The weekend talks in Geneva, Switzerland, marked the first formal negotiations between the two superpowers since U.S. President Donald Trump imposed new tariffs of 145% on China earlier this year. Trump had stated that he "might speak with Chinese President Xi Jinping" based on the outcome in Switzerland.
This agreement comes in the wake of renewed<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/05/45337811/trump-announces-total-reset-as-us-china-trade-talks-aim-to-end-tariff-war"> trade negotiations </a>between the two nations, as reported. The talks, described by U.S. officials and President Trump as a potential &#8220;reset,&#8221; aimed to reduce tariffs and reestablish more stable trade terms. 
Despite the diplomatic tone, deep-rooted differences remain, particularly around technology, subsidies, and market transparency. The outcome of these talks is critical not just for U.S.–China relations, but for global trade stability in the months ahead. 
Investors were encouraged by the news of the tariff relief. During the pre-market trading session, shares of Apple (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) climbed above 4%, while Tesla Inc.

Dow Falls Over 100 Points, Also Records Weekly Loss: Fear & Greed Index Remains In 'Greed' Zone

Prominent investor Ross Gerber recently shared that, in his view, Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) subsidiary Google-backed Waymo self-driving technology performs better than human drivers, hinting at growing pressure on ride-sharing and autonomous vehicle rivals.
What Happened: The CEO and co-founder of Gerber Kawasaki Wealth and Investment Management shared his experience on his X account after observing a Waymo vehicle navigate through congested beach traffic. 
&#8220;A Waymo navigated by us with precision that was better than a human. Waymos drive extremely well,&#8221; Gerber stated, adding that this development &#8220;is going to be very tough competition&#8221; for Uber Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) and Elon Musk&#8216;s Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>).
Gerber&#8217;s comments came in response to CBS Sunday Morning correspondent David Pogue&#8216;s segment highlighting Waymo&#8217;s achievement of 50 million miles driven without a fatality. According to Pogue&#8217;s report, Waymo plans expansion to 15 cities by year-end, offering rides at the &#8220;same price as Uber.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The assessment from Gerber directly contradicts the position of prominent Tesla bull and Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives, who recently dismissed the Waymo and Toyota Motor Corp&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) partnership as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45126638/tesla-will-own-the-autonomous-market-dan-ives-says-shrugging-off-waymo-toyota-agreement">threat to Tesla&#8217;s autonomous ambitions</a>. &#8220;Tesla will own the autonomous market in my view and no one can compete with their scale and scope,&#8221; Ives posted, emphasizing Tesla&#8217;s upcoming Austin robotaxi launch in June as a &#8220;key chapter of growth.&#8221;
Waymo has established significant momentum in the autonomous vehicle race, recently announcing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45001569/waymo-announces-250000-weekly-paid-rides-across-four-us-cities-sundar-pichai-says-personal-ownership-an-option-in-the-future">it provides over 250,000</a> fully autonomous paid rides weekly across four major cities. 
The Alphabet subsidiary has formed a strategic partnership with Toyota to develop autonomous technology for personally owned vehicles, combining Waymo&#8217;s driving system expertise with Toyota&#8217;s manufacturing capabilities.

Ross Gerber Calls Google-Backed Waymo's Self-Driving Taxis 'Better Than A Human,' Says They're 'Tough Competition' For Uber And Tesla

Economists have been predicting that retailers in the U.S. are likely to face pressure in the case of higher tariffs on China, as it is likely to &#8220;empty shelves&#8221; with a falling inventory-to-sales ratio.
What Happened: According to Torsten Slok, the chief economist at Apollo Academy, the inventory-to-sales ratio for retailers has fallen below the pre-pandemic level, sparking concerns about lower inventory as compared to the sales made by these retailers.
&#8220;The inventory-to-sales ratio for retailers was 1.5 before the pandemic, and now it is 1.3, see chart below,&#8221; the Apollo note stated.
Slok explained, &#8220;In other words, retailers will more quickly have empty shelves when goods no longer come in from China.&#8221;
This sentiment was also echoed by senior economist Mohamed El Erian in an X post. According to him, the ongoing high-level talks between China and the U.S. in Geneva, Switzerland, are likely to provide clarity on many concerns.
He highlights China&#8217;s &#8220;appetite for pain&#8221; and America&#8217;s fear of &#8220;empty shelves&#8221; as the primary matters that need to be solved via the ongoing talks.
&#8220;The outcome of this weekend's China-US tariff talks in Switzerland will be assessed in terms of what it reveals about China's appetite for pain, America's fear of &#8217;empty shelves,&#8217; and the way each country prioritizes the long-term objectives of trade policy. It will also be significant for many other countries, where there is already concern about the diversion of Chinese exports to their markets,&#8221; he said.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent lauded the &#8220;substantial progress,&#8221; while Trade Ambassador Jamieson Greer highlighted the swift agreement, expressing optimism that the deal would address the U.S.&#8217;s $1.2 trillion trade deficit, a &#8220;national emergency.&#8221;

On Sunday, President Donald Trump announced on Truth Social that he plans to sign what he called the &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/25/05/45339399/trump-says-prescription-drug-prices-set-to-drop-by-30-to-80-almost-immediately-thanks-to-most-favored-nation-plan-mark-cuban-urges-president-to-force-tran">most consequential executive order</a>&#8221; in U.S. history, aimed at lowering prescription drug prices.
What Happened: Trump said the executive order, set to be signed at 9 a.m. Monday, will implement a &#8220;Most Favored Nations&#8221; policy requiring pharmaceutical companies to charge U.S. consumers no more than the lowest price they offer for the same drug in any other country.

Accusing pharmaceutical companies of overcharging American consumers, sometimes &#8220;five to ten times more&#8221; than patients in other countries, Trump slammed political opponents for enabling the status quo all these years.
Trump says that prescription drug prices will be reduced by &#8220;30% to 80%,&#8221; while rising throughout the world, to equalize and &#8220;bring fairness to America.&#8221;
Why It Matters: This move is expected to have the biggest impact on Medicare Part B drugs, which mainly constitute outpatient prescriptions and biologicals, the prices for which are directly managed by the Centers for Medicare &amp; Medicaid Services (CMS).

<figcaption class="wp-element-caption">A breakdown of the top Medicare Part B drugs by spending in 2023, based on the latest data shared by the Centers for Medicare &amp; Medicaid Services (CMS).</figcaption></figure>
These are the stocks that are most likely to be hit by this announcement when markets open on Monday, given their sizable exposure to Medicare, especially being classified as Part B. 
According to a report by the Rand Corporation, a California-based policy think-tank, prescription drug prices in the U.S. are, on average, at least 2.78 times higher than other countries.
While Trump&#8217;s move is being criticized by the likes of crypto enthusiast Ed Krassenstein, calling it &#8220;just another Trump lie,&#8221; saying that an executive order can steer Medicare and Medicaid payments, but <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/25/05/45339399/trump-says-prescription-drug-prices-set-to-drop-by-30-to-80-almost-immediately-thanks-to-most-favored-nation-plan-mark-cuban-urges-president-to-force-tran">cannot force manufacturers</a> to cut prices. 
Others, such as billionaire investor Mark Cuban, have come out in support of the move, saying that it can &#8220;force transparency,&#8221; even if the President cannot force price cuts.
Drug pricing disparities have been a point of contention across the political spectrum. Recently, Novo Nordisk A/S&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVO#NYSE">NVO</a>) CEO, Lars Fruergaard Jorgensen, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/09/40986953/novo-nordisk-ceo-to-face-senate-scrutiny-over-high-ozempic-and-wegovy-prices-hearing-scheduled-on">faced Senate scrutiny</a> on these vast differences, where he was targeted by Sen.&nbsp;Bernie Sanders&nbsp;(I-Vt.) for the high price of the company&#8217;s diabetes drug, Ozempic.

Trump's New Drug Pricing Executive Order Could Rattle Pharma Stocks, With Price Cuts Of Up To 80%: Novo Nordisk, Pfizer And J&J Fall In Premarket

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is reportedly considering reducing the number of flights operating out of New Jersey's Newark Airport.
What Happened: The agency is set to meet with officials from several U.S. airlines to discuss scaling back flights out of Newark following disruptions caused by equipment malfunctions as well as staff shortages, CNBC reported <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/11/newark-airport-flight-cuts-ahead-after-wee.html">on</a> Sunday.
"What you see in Newark is going to happen in other places across the country. It needs to be fixed," U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said, according to the report.
Equipment outages caused air traffic controllers to lose communication as well as flight monitoring capabilities for over 90 seconds last month. There were also delays to over 1,000 flights due to equipment failures, the report suggests. The event also led to several staff members going on leave.
Questions have been raised over the aging air traffic infrastructure, which could reportedly cost over $31 billion to revamp, as well as more hiring of air traffic controllers, the report said.
"In ideal weather, with full staffing and with perfectly functioning technology, the FAA tells us that the airport (Newark) can only handle 77 flights per hour. And yet, the FAA regularly approves schedules of 80+ flights per hour almost every day between 3:00 pm and 8:00 p.m.," United Airlines Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) CEO Scott Kirby told employees in a note, according to the report.
Why It Matters: The news comes in as the U.S. aviation industry is dealing with a difficult quarter, as analysts have<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/04/45020724/airlines-face-significant-pressure-analysts-adjust-expectations-after-q1-results"> reset price targets </a>for several U.S. airlines following quarterly results.
American Airlines Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAL#NASDAQ">AAL</a>) recently announced it was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44982328/american-airlines-flies-into-uncertainty-q1-revenue-miss-2025-outlook-pulled-but-debt-plan-on-track?_gl=1&#x2A;1yry3sk&#x2A;_gcl_au&#x2A;NTM5OTQ2NTE5LjE3NDcwMjQyNzY.&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;R1MyLjEuczE3NDcwMzM3NzAkbzIkZzEkdDE3NDcwMzM3NzAkajAkbDAkaDA.&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;czE3NDcwMzM1MzkkbzMkZzEkdDE3NDcwMzQyNzAkajAkbDAkaDA.">pulling its 2025 outlook </a>as the airline's operating revenue declined slightly to $12.55 billion, a 0.15% YoY decline.
Elsewhere, JetBlue Airways Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBLU#NASDAQ">JBLU</a>) is reportedly in talks with United Airlines over a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45093263/jetblue-in-talks-with-united-airlines-over-possible-partnership-report">possible partnership</a> between the two companies.

FAA Mulls Cutting Flights At Newark Airport Amid Staffing Woes And Equipment Failures: Report

Eli Lilly and Company&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>) Zepbound demonstrated superior weight reduction compared to Novo Nordisk A/S&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVO#NYSE">NVO</a>) Wegovy in a 72-week head-to-head trial.
What Happened: Participants treated with tirzepatide (Zepbound) achieved an average weight loss of 20.2%, compared to 13.7% with semaglutide (Wegovy), representing a 47% greater relative weight reduction, according to detailed results from a direct comparison trial published in The New England Journal of Medicine. 
On average, those taking Zepbound lost 50.3 pounds, while those on Wegovy lost 33.1 pounds over the course of the study.
The SURMOUNT-5 Phase 3b open-label clinical trial met its primary endpoint and all five key secondary endpoints, with Zepbound showing superiority across all weight reduction targets. Nearly 65% of Zepbound users achieved at least 15% weight loss compared to 40% on Wegovy, and participants experienced greater waist circumference reduction —7.2 inches versus 5.1 inches.
The safety profile aligned with previous trials, with primarily gastrointestinal-related adverse events that were generally mild to moderate in severity. Discontinuation rates due to adverse events were 6.1% for Zepbound versus 8% for Wegovy.

Why It Matters: Zepbound&#8217;s performance in this direct comparison strengthens Lilly&#8217;s position in the rapidly growing weight loss medication market. The drug operates as a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist, compared to Wegovy, which works solely as a GLP-1 receptor agonist.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recently expanded Zepbound&#8217;s approval to include <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/01/42933134/fda-approves-weight-loss-drug-zepbound-for-sleep-apnea-will-insurance-cover-this-1000-per-month-medication">treatment for moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea</a> in adults with obesity. Clinical trials showed patients experienced an average of 25 fewer breathing interruptions per hour, with up to 50% no longer exhibiting OSA symptoms after one year.
WW International Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WW#NASDAQ">WW</a>) recently announced a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/45073094/weightwatchers-integrates-with-eli-lilly-to-expand-access-to-zepbound-stock-skyrockets-110">partnership with LillyDirect</a> pharmacy provider Gifthealth to simplify access to Zepbound for eligible self-pay clinic members. According to WeightWatchers, 33% of its clinic patients currently use Zepbound as part of their weight management plan, with prescriptions more than doubling in recent months.

Monday.Com Gears Up For Q1 Print; Here Are The Recent Forecast Changes From Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts

President Donald Trump&#8216;s proposed millionaire tax, which aims to increase the tax rate on income over $2.5 million, is being seen as largely symbolic and unlikely to significantly impact revenue or inequality by experts.
What Happened: Howard Gleckman, from the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center, stated that the proposed tax change would not significantly affect revenue or inequality, <a href="https://fortune.com/2025/05/11/trump-millionaire-tax-inequality-billionaires/">reported</a> Fortune. The tax hike, which would increase the rate from 37% to 39.6% on income over $2.5 million, is expected to raise about $8.2 billion this year and impact around 80,000 households.
Most&nbsp;millionaires and billionaires in the&nbsp;U.S. earn a small portion&nbsp;of their income in the&nbsp;form of salaries, with the majority coming from capital gains, which are taxed at a lower rate. Program director at&nbsp;the Institute for Policy Studies,&nbsp;Sarah Anderson, told the publication that the proposed tax increase would have minimal impact on billionaires as&nbsp;they take very little compensation&nbsp;from their companies.
"It's not going to change the revenue very much and it's going to give a lot of Republicans heartburn," stated Garrett Watson from the Tax Foundation.

Like Actually Bad&#8217;—A Man Describes The Crisis At A Big Fulfillment Warehouse: Tariffs Are Hitting Way Harder Than We Thought</a>
Why It Matters: The Republican Party, long opposed to tax hikes, is now considering them to help cover $4.5 trillion in costs from extending the 2017 tax cuts and advancing Trump's priorities like exempting Social Security income and tips from taxes.
Trump&#8217;s tax proposal comes amid a political storm within the Republican Party. Trump&#8217;s support for a tax increase on millionaires <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45037541/trumps-proposed-millionaires-tax-ignites-political-firestorm-within-republicans-doing-so-would-be-political-death-caution-experts">sparked controversy </a>and debate among Republicans and conservatives. Opposition to tax hikes is strong among traditional Republicans, including Trump advisors Steve Moore and Larry Kudlow and GOP Sen. Dave McCormick (R-Pa.) and Ted Cruz (R-Texas). However, Sen. Mike Crapo (R-Idaho) expressed potential openness to being persuaded.
Earlier in May, Trump&#8217;s ambitious budget package, dubbed the &#8220;Big, Beautiful Bill,&#8221; was facing a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45217098/trumps-big-beautiful-bill-takes-shape-gop-pushes-tax-cuts-border-wall-funding-and-deep-spending-reductions-ahead-of-memorial-day-deadline">bumpy road </a>in Congress as Republican lawmakers worked to balance tax cuts with spending priorities.
Just days later, Trump revived the push for a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45317302/trump-renews-effort-to-hike-taxes-on-wealthy-americans-holds-talks-with-mike-johnson-report">tax increase </a>on the wealthiest Americans as part of his forthcoming tax package. The White House believes that this tax increase on the wealthiest will facilitate substantial tax cuts for the middle and working class and safeguard Medicaid.

Trump's Millionaire Tax More Of A Symbolic Gesture Than Step Towards Reducing Inequality, Warn Experts: 'It's Going To Give A Lot Of Republicans Heartburn'

Diversified Energy Q1 Revenue $346.9M Up From $193.62M YoY, Adj. EBITDA $138.64M Up From $102.08M YoY

Alibaba Group Holding&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) Chairman, Joe Tsai, has announced that the tech giant plans to integrate artificial intelligence (AI) into its operations within the next three to five years.
What Happened: Tsai unveiled Alibaba Group Holding (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>)&#8217;s future AI-driven strategy at AliDay, the company&#8217;s annual event for employees and their families. Tsai stated, &#8220;In the next three to five years, all of our businesses should be driven by AI,&#8221; <a href="https://www.scmp.com/tech/big-tech/article/3309905/ai-will-be-mainstay-alibabas-business-next-3-5-years-chairman-joe-tsai-says">reported</a> the South China Morning Post. Founder Jack Ma was also in attendance at the annual event.
Tsai views AI as a crucial tool to expand Alibaba&#8217;s user base across its e-commerce and other business sectors. During the two-day event, Tsai and Chief People Officer Jane Jiang Fang addressed several questions from the staff, including&nbsp;the impact of the U.S.-China&nbsp;trade war on the company and the country.
 Tsai expressed confidence in China&#8217;s position in the trade war, stating, &#8220;We&nbsp;have the upper hand in&nbsp;the trade war.&#8221; The Chairman explained that a significant portion of China&#8217;s exports to the U.S. includes high-tech products with intricate supply chains, unlike American exports like oil and soybeans, which are easier to replace.

Why It Matters: This announcement comes after Alibaba&#8217;s recent launch of Qwen 3, its most advanced artificial intelligence model to date. The system features <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45057716/alibabas-qwen-3-launch-takes-aim-at-deepseeks-disruption-and-baidus-ernie-turbo-models">hybrid reasoning </a>capabilities, blending traditional AI tasks with enhanced problem-solving skills. This move towards AI integration aligns with Alibaba&#8217;s ongoing efforts to stay at the forefront of technological innovation.
In February, the company announced a record capital expenditure of 380 billion yuan ($52.4 billion) over three years to boost computing resources and AI infrastructure.
Notably, the Chinese tech giant has begun allowing employees from its six major business groups to communicate through an internal website, aiming to foster synergies across its operations following a major restructuring two years ago.
Price Action:&nbsp;Alibaba ADRs slid 0.37% to close at $125.33 on Friday. On a year-to-date basis, the ADRs climbed 47.53%, according to&nbsp;<a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>.
According to Benzinga Edge Stock Rankings, Alibaba has a growth score of 73.51% and a momentum rating of 93.82.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-2#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Click here to see how it compares to other leading</a>&nbsp;tech companies.

Ball Corporation Launches €750M Senior Notes Offering Due 2032 For Corporate Financing And Strategic Flexibility

Future Fund LLC's Gary Black believes Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) as well as Uber Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) will benefit from increased EV adoption as well as growth in Autonomous Driving.
What Happened: In a post on the social media platform X, the investor shared his thoughts on why he invested in both companies on Sunday. "We own both $UBER and $TSLA for different reasons,"
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

Our investment thesis on <a href="https://twitter.com/search?q=%24UBER&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">$UBER</a> is that as autonomy becomes table stakes for remaining in the automobile business, many auto manufacturers will achieve and be granted deployment licenses for unsupervised autonomy. <a href="https://twitter.com/search?q=%24UBER&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">$UBER</a> with…

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Black said that as autonomous driving gathers steam, more companies would adopt the technology and be granted licenses to operate unsupervised robotaxis in the future. "$UBER with 170M MAUs will by 2026 year-end offer a driverless option that reduces the cost per mile from $2/mile to $1/mile," he said in the post.
"We see $UBER Non-GAAP EPS increasing from $3/share in 2025 to $8/share by 2030.&nbsp; Our UBER PT is $120." Black said.
He then talked about Tesla and how Elon Musk's EV giant could stand to gain from increased EV adoption throughout the globe. "We own $TSLA because as global EV adoption increases from its current 20% to 50% by 2030, TSLA deliveries should increase from 1.7M in 2025 to 5.0M by 2030," he shared.
Black also shared how autonomous driving could help boost sales before setting a $310 price target on Tesla stock. "We expect unsupervised autonomy to sell more Teslas and increase the FSD take rate from its current 15% to 33%." the investor said.
Why It Matters: The investor has been an advocate for autonomous vehicles. He had recently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45339797/gary-black-doubles-down-on-ubers-autonomy-upside-reflects-on-tesla-debates-i-was-right-on-volume-pr-and-robotaxis">doubled down </a>on Uber's growth as autonomous vehicles are steadily gaining pace in the U.S.
Black has also previously shared that Musk's company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45336172/tesla-bull-gary-black-reaffirms-elon-musks-company-best-positioned-to-capitalize-on-evs-and-autonomo">is "best positioned"</a> to&nbsp;
