Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>)-owned WhatsApp has secured a $168 million jury verdict against NSO Group, the Israeli firm behind the controversial Pegasus spyware, over a 2019 hacking incident.
What Happened: A federal jury in California ruled that NSO Group must pay $168 million in damages to WhatsApp for exploiting a vulnerability in the encrypted messaging platform, <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/be26c503-b4e0-4ba5-a5ca-e9e75c351c46">reported</a> the Financial Times on Tuesday.&nbsp;
The exploit allowed NSO's clients to secretly install Pegasus spyware on the devices of journalists, human rights activists, and political dissidents.
This is the first time a spyware maker has been held liable in court for breaching the technical defenses of major smartphone platforms, the report said.

"The jury's decision to force NSO to pay damages is a critical deterrent to this malicious industry against their illegal acts aimed at American companies," WhatsApp parent company Meta said in a statement, the report added.
NSO Group responded that it plans to appeal the verdict. "We firmly believe that our technology plays a critical role in preventing serious crime and terrorism and is deployed responsibly by authorized government agencies," the company said.

Meta's WhatsApp Wins $168 Million Verdict Against Pegasus Spyware Maker NSO Group For 2019 Hack

Rivian Automotive Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>) CEO and Founder RJ Scaringe warned of potential negative impacts of U.S. President Donald Trump's 25% auto tariffs as company shares fell 1.4% following the earnings call.
What Happened: "Customers are hesitant to make large-dollar purchases, and they&#8217;re more price sensitive than they historically have been," Scaringe told Reuters on Wednesday. He also expects the tariffs to raise the cost per vehicle by "a couple of thousand" dollars.
The EV maker revised its projections for deliveries in 2025 as Rivian slashed down expected deliveries to 40,000 &#8211; 46,000 units this year.
Why It Matters: Rivian announced <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45236756/rivian-q1-earnings-double-beat-record-gross-profit-delivery-estimates-lowered-on-tariff-concerns">better-than-expected</a> quarterly results at the Q1 2025 earnings call with investors. The company reported first-quarter revenue of $1.24 billion, which is a 3% YoY increase.
The EV maker also expects<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45243985/rivian-holds-firm-on-45k-r2-price-despite-tariff-pressures-ceo-rj-scaringe-says-its-important-for-us-as-ev-maker-tops-q1-estimates"> to hold firm </a>on the $45,000 price of its upcoming affordable SUV, the Rivian R2, despite tariff uncertainties. Rivian recently announced plans to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45218458/rivian-handed-16-million-boost-by-government-as-plans-for-120-million-illinois-supplier-park-take-shape">invest over $120 million </a>to build a supplier park at its Normal, Illinois, manufacturing facility.
Interestingly, Scaringe recently shared in an interview that the company's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/04/44836493/rivians-us-centric-supply-chain-could-offer-edge-amid-trumps-auto-tariffs-says-ceo-rj-scaringe">U.S.-centric supply chain</a> could give it an edge over its competitors amid Donald Trump's auto tariffs.

Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe Says Donald Trump's Tariffs Could Increase Costs By 'A Couple Of Thousand,' Slashes Delivery Projections

Novo Nordisk A/S (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVO#NYSE">NVO</a>) slashed its 2025 sales forecast Wednesday, citing lower-than-expected penetration of its branded GLP-1 weight loss and diabetes treatments in the U.S. market due to competition from compounded versions of the drugs.
What Happened: The Danish pharmaceutical giant now expects sales growth of 13-21% at constant exchange rates, down from previous projections. Operating profit growth is now forecast at 16-24%.
&#8220;We have reduced our full-year outlook due to lower-than-planned branded GLP-1 penetration, which is impacted by the rapid expansion of compounding in the U.S.,&#8221; said CEO Lars Fruergaard Jørgensen in the company&#8217;s first quarter earnings report.

Why It Matters: The headwinds come as weight-loss industry pioneer WW International Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WW#NASDAQ">WW</a>), formerly known as WeightWatchers, filed for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45243206/despite-bruce-galloways-pushback-on-bankruptcy-weightwatchers-enters-chapter-11-says-members-wont-be-affected">Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection this week</a>, highlighting the disruptive impact of GLP-1 drugs like Novo&#8217;s Wegovy and Ozempic.
Novo Nordisk faces additional market uncertainty as the President Donald Trump administration contemplates policies to match U.S. drug prices with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44945973/trump-administration-considers-lowering-us-drug-prices-to-international-levels-report">lower rates in other developed nations</a>. 
The company continues to expand its product pipeline, recently completing the REDEFINE 2 trial for CagriSema, which demonstrated 15.7% weight loss in adults with obesity or overweight and type 2 diabetes. Novo Nordisk still expects to file for regulatory approval in the first quarter of 2026.
&#8220;With around 1 billion people living with obesity globally and only few million on treatment, Novo Nordisk continues the global roll-out of Wegovy,&#8221; the company stated.
Price Action: Novo Nordisk stock closed at $66.29 on Tuesday, down 4.09% for the day. In after-hours trading, the stock rose 1.37% to $67.20. Year to date, the stock has declined by 24.26%, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

The thought of selling Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) makes you feel squeamish? Strike, a cryptocurrency payments firm, has launched a new lending product that allows users to take out loans using the world's largest cryptocurrency as collateral.
What Happened: The firm's CEO, Jack Mallers, took to X, explaining how the new offering would work.
Like other credit-financing mechanisms, Bitcoin-backed loans involve temporarily pledging held BTC as secure collateral and receiving a cash loan, to be repaid with interest. The larger the loan, the more collateral is required.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
For a 12-month loan, the interest rates begin at 12%, with a minimum borrowing amount of $75,000 and a maximum of $2 million. The loan-to-value ratio will be set at 50%, suggesting that the loans will be overcollateralized.
Strike cautioned that due to Bitcoin's price volatility, the collateral value could diminish, limiting the lender's ability to recover funds. In the event of a liquidation, the collateral could be sold to meet the loan-to-value ratio requirement.
Strive said the feature is available in select U.S. states with plans of expansion in the future.

Despite ongoing trade tensions between the U.S. and China, expert quotes the prevailing consensus that is anticipating minimal impact on future economic growth and corporate earnings.
What Happened: This comes after the U.S. and China agreed to hold <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">high-level trade talks</a> in Switzerland this weekend, their first major meeting since President Donald Trump initiated the trade war. The meeting comes amid growing U.S. market concerns over tariff impacts.
According to a recent analysis shared by market strategist Bob Elliott, the current market sentiment is discounting the potential effect of the existing trade policies.
Elliott highlighted that equity analysts and economists appear confident that the &#8220;admin&#8217;s policies&#8221; will not impede earnings growth in the coming years, with earnings projections for 2025 mirroring those of 2024 and even accelerating into 2026.
He underscores the relatively high 12-month forward earnings estimates, which remain considerably above current-year figures, suggesting a lack of widespread concern about long-term repercussions.
While the economic growth forecasts for 2025 have seen some downward revisions, the implied growth for the remainder of the year remains robust. Household consumption growth estimates also remain strong, mirroring the growth seen in the first quarter, as highlighted by Elliott in a series of posts.

Why It Matters: Adding a layer of cautious perspective, Marko Kolanovic, former Chief Strategist at JP Morgan, also commented on the news of potential U.S.-China negotiations.
In a social media post, Kolanovic warned against premature optimism concerning the nature of other geopolitical conflicts. He suggested that the initial contact between the two economic powerhouses should not be interpreted as an end to the trade war, highlighting the potentially lengthy and complex nature of such negotiations.

Trade War Will Not Impact 'Growth Or Earnings Ahead,' Says Expert As China-US Hint At Initiating Negotiations

Reported Earlier, NOVAGOLD Announces Proposed Public Offering Of Up To 43.5M Common Shares

The Company intends to apply to list the Notes on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") and, if the application is approved, expects trading in the Notes on NYSE to begin within 30 days after the Notes are first issued.

Reported Earlier, TWO Harbors Investment Prices $100M Public Offering Of 9.375% Senior Notes Due 2030

The U.K. and India have concluded a free trade agreement after three years of intermittent negotiations, with the aim of boosting bilateral trade by $34 billion by 2040.
What Happened:&nbsp;The deal between the world&#8217;s fifth and sixth largest economies comes in the wake of tariff chaos sparked by U.S. President Donald Trump. The agreement is anticipated to reduce&nbsp;tariffs on goods such as&nbsp;whisky and create opportunities for British companies in India and Indian workers in the U.K, reported Reuters.
Indian Prime Minister&nbsp;Narendra Modi&nbsp;characterized the deal as &#8220;ambitious and mutually beneficial,&#8221; while British Prime Minister&nbsp;Sir Keir Starmer&nbsp;praised it as a &#8220;new era for trade.&#8221;
This deal marks India&#8217;s step towards liberalizing its traditionally protected markets, including the automotive sector, and sets a benchmark for its future interactions with major Western powers. For the U.K., this is the most substantial trade agreement since its exit from the European Union in 2020.
India&#8217;s trade ministry announced that under the agreement, 99% of Indian exports—including textiles—will be exempt from duties. In contrast, the U.K. will see tariff reductions on 90% of its tariff lines.
The deal is expected to boost the UK's annual economic output by £4.8 billion ($6.41 billion) by 2040—a modest yet significant gain relative to the country's £2.6 trillion ($3.47 trillion) GDP in 2024.

Why It Matters:&nbsp;Interestingly, the landmark deal between the U.K. and India comes at a time when a concrete deal between the U.S. and India is highly awaited. 
A few weeks back, U.S. Vice President JD Vance visited India, wherein he finalized terms for a trade negotiation, aiming to double bilateral trade between the U.S. and India to $500 billion by the end of the decade. Meanwhile, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has reiterated several times that India could be the first country to sign a trade deal with the U.S.
Notably, President Trump told reporters on Tuesday that India has offered to drop all tariffs on American imports. &#8220;They&#8217;ve already agreed. They would have never done that for anybody else but me,&#8221; asserted Trump. 
India, however, has not issued any official statements on the matter, as trade negotiations with the U.S. are still ongoing.

DoorDash Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DASH#NASDAQ">DASH</a>) is shifting its focus beyond food delivery, with CEO Tony Xu outlining plans during the company's earnings call to expand more broadly into local commerce through a range of new services and tech innovations.
What Happened: On Tuesday, during the company&#8217;s <a href="https://benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45221705/doordash-is-hungry-for-growth-q1-orders-jump-18-plans-2-big-acquisitions-to-expand-international-presence">first quarter earnings</a> call, Xu spoke of the company&#8217;s goal of &#8220;connecting every local business to every local consumer,&#8221; before outlining how recent product moves, such as the DashPass membership program, the DoubleDash service, and its investments in autonomous deliveries fit into the same.
Xu sees a lot more potential in DashPass, beyond just the free deliveries that DoorDash users have come to expect. He calls it a &#8220;membership to the physical world,&#8221; designed to engage and offer a growing array of local services. &#8220;There would be no other program in which you would have more or gain more utility,&#8221; he says.

DoubleDash, which allows users to shop from multiple stores in a single order with no added fees, will soon feature every retail catalog in their respective cities, according to Xu. He, however, adds that &#8220;we're still in the work of just getting the basics right.&#8221;
Xu says DoorDash will be rolling out its autonomous delivery tech in Los Angeles, which it continues to test in other markets. &#8220;You don't need a 4,000-pound vehicle to deliver a one- or two-pound item or package,&#8221; he says, while adding that the first and last &#8220;10 feet problem&#8221; still needs to be solved.
Why It Matters: The company recently entered into hemp-derived <a href="https://benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/25/02/43558897/exclusive-doordash-reveals-why-its-betting-on-thc-cbd-delivery">THC and CBD deliveries</a>, a niche which the company notes has high repeat purchases and basket sizes, since orders are often bundled with alcohol and snacks.
Early this week, the company announced its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45214764/doordash-to-boost-global-presence-with-nearly-39-billion-acquisition-of-uks-deliveroo">intent to acquire</a> European food delivery company, Deliveroo PLC (OTCMKTS:&nbsp;DROOF) in a $3.9 billion deal, which would allow the combined companies to serve 1 billion people across 40 different countries. 
DoorDash is already a dominant player in urban markets. Domino&#8217;s Pizza Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DPZ#NASDAQ">DPZ</a>), which was holding out against delivery services for years, finally made the decision to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/45058659/dominos-is-fine-with-doordash-eyes-full-national-rollout-for-q2-ceo-says-pizza-giants-strategy-is-to-meet-customers-where-they-are">join the platform</a>, after realizing the incremental sales it can provide in the face of dropping same-store sales, calling third-party platforms a $1 billion opportunity for the company.
However, DoorDash's use of its dominant position to gain a competitive edge has come under scrutiny. Uber Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>), which operates rival platform Uber Eats, has filed a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43764119/uber-files-a-lawsuit-action-against-doordash-over-anticompetitive-conduct-underhanded-tactics-have-cost-uber-millions-of-dollars-in-revenue">lawsuit accusing DoorDash</a> of engaging in anticompetitive conduct for pressuring restaurants into exclusivity contracts. 
During its <a href="https://benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45221705/doordash-is-hungry-for-growth-q1-orders-jump-18-plans-2-big-acquisitions-to-expand-international-presence">first quarter results</a> on Tuesday, DoorDash reported $3.03 billion in revenue, up 21% YoY, but missed top-line estimates at $3.09 billion. It posted a profit of $0.44 per share, ahead of consensus estimates at $0.39 per share.
Price Action: The stock was down 7.44% on Tuesday, following the company&#8217;s miss on revenue estimates, it is now up 0.75% after hours.
