As Bitcoin spins on in its manic tempo throughout 2025, Wall Street analysts are making increasingly-daring predictions regarding where the world&#8217;s largest cryptocurrency may be headed. Some of that is hype, some is realistic.
VanEck, Fundstrat, and Standard Chartered experts anticipate a 2025 BTC high of $180,000 to $250,000 based on institutional adoption and patterns from past markets. But are such lofty price projections realistic?
 The Bull Case: Institutional Momentum Building The foundation of these bullish projections is underpinned by a series of key pillars. Bitfinex analysts suggest that Bitcoin can crack the $120,000–$125,000 zone at the earliest in June, pending supportive macroeconomic developments, setting an important short-term milestone on the way toward the higher objectives.
Institutional adoption is growing dominance. Bitcoin ETFs have experienced steady weekly and monthly inflows with data from BitMEX Research showing net inflows of some $1.2 billion into US-domiciled Bitcoin ETFs during the week up to May 30, 2025. This is a long way from earlier this year when a number of prominent asset managers cut their exposure to spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds after a 12% fall in the price of the cryptocurrency in the first quarter of 2025.
BlackRock&#8217;s spot Bitcoin ETF closed the week with a $356.2 million inflow, marking a third straight week of inflows and 19 consecutive days , &nbsp;the lengthiest stretch of 2025 so far. These long-term inflows indicate growing institutional trust despite past volatility. That's great news for all BTC holders, and shows confidence from large asset managers. 
$250K Target: Mathematical Possibility or Pipe Dream?
The most optimistic estimates include analysis that is associated with Larry Fink&#8217;s BlackRock, which projects Bitcoin to be worth $700,000 over a 10 year time horizon. It bases the estimate on the assumption of institutions investing merely 2–5% of their portfolios in BTC, a shift that would be a record influx of capital. That's a likely scenario over the next 10 years.  
However, more conservative analysts suggest a more measured approach. In 2025, BTC is expected to move in the $77,000 to $155,000 area, which still represents significant upside from current levels but falls short of the most optimistic projections.
Historical Context and Market Cycles
The volatility of Bitcoin&#8217;s prices has historically been in accordance with four-year cycles during halving events, during which new Bitcoin production is cut by half. Previous cycles have seen exponential increases in prices following halvings, but with each cycle exhibiting diminishing returns as the marketplace matures.
The current cycle is favorable in various characteristics lacking in previous cycles: regulatory certainty in big markets, institutional infrastructure in the form of ETFs, and growing corporate usage. These characteristics can potentially turn past trends upside down and drive prices higher than normal cycle anticipations, and that's in addition to the other M2 type liquidity market drivers.
Risk Factors That Might Deter the 2025 Rally
Despite the positive sentiment, a number of factors may stop Bitcoin from hitting these sky-high targets. Regulatory clampdowns in key markets continue to pose a lingering risk. Macroeconomic headwinds in the form of possible interest rate fluctuations and cross-border economic uncertainty may divert investor interest away from risk assets such as Bitcoin.
Spot bitcoin ETFs pulled in over $1 billion in the first quarter despite soft prices, with one Bitwise analyst calling for up to $3 billion in second-quarter inflows. Institutional demand is on the rise even as it keeps retail investors jumpy. Institutional vs. retail sentiment is the split that can keep any rally in check.
Technical resistance levels are also an issue. Bitcoin has long had an issue with round-number psychological resistance, and the $100,000 level has been particularly stubborn. To break through, and remain above, this level will be crucial to any move towards $180,000-$250,000. 
The Verdict: Optimistic but Not Impossible
The $180,000-$250,000 Bitcoin price goals of 2025 are ambitious but not impossible. Several other key metrics support this level. The institutional adoption hypothesis is still strong, and ETF inflows make for consistent demand even as prices decline.
However, investors must remain right skeptical of these projections. While the underlying fundamental forces behind increasing prices for Bitcoin exist, the cryptocurrency market remains notoriously risky.
Factors beyond the usual financial metrics like regulatory actions, technological advances, and sentiment, will ultimately determine whether or not Bitcoin can make it to these elevated price points.
For now, the path to $180,000+ is feasible but not guaranteed. Investors should be aware of risk management and diversification rather than risking everything on these rosy prospects. The experience of the cryptocurrency market teaches us that although spectacular price increases are possible, they are usually accompanied by spectacular corrections which is why we only support a strategic trading approach at <a href="https://cryptoflowzone.com/" title="https://cryptoflowzone.com/">https://cryptoflowzone.com/</a>
&#x2A;&#x2A; 
There are no guarantees, only uncertainty is ever certain in cryptocurrency markets , and that makes both the bulls and the bears worth listening to.

Logitech Announces Muse For Apple Vision Pro, To Be Available Later This Year

Policymakers, politicians, business leaders, and investors all use economic data. So, most people agree that any data being cited should be high quality.
But everyone&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/p/conflicting-views-on-same-economic-data">relies on data differently</a>&nbsp;depending on their goals and interests, which means the implications of data quality varies depending on who's using it.
Today, I'm going to provide some updates on&nbsp;<a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/06/06/business/jobs-report-reliability-trump.html">deteriorating data quality</a>&nbsp;and share some thoughts from the stock market investor's perspective.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">‘… errors … miscoded … misapplied …‘ &#x1f648;</h2>
We got some unsettling news about data quality last week.
From the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.bls.gov/bls/errata/cps-corrections-april-2025.htm">Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS)</a>&nbsp;on Tuesday:
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">Due to minor errors to weights associated with the introduction of a redesigned Current Population Survey (CPS) sample, some April 2025 estimates will be corrected on June 6, 2025. Major labor force measures, such as the unemployment rate, labor force participation rate, and employment–population ratio were unaffected. While corrections will be made to many estimates, the impact is negligible.
In April 2025, the CPS began to phase in&nbsp;<a href="https://www.bls.gov/cps/methods/sample_redesign_2025.htm">a redesigned sample</a>&nbsp;that is based on information from the 2020 Census. During the introduction of this new sample in April, a derived geographic variable used in the weighting process was miscoded, treating micropolitan areas like metropolitan areas, which led to misapplied noninterview weights for some cases.
</blockquote>
That doesn't instill confidence.
It didn't end there.
Here's the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wsj.com/economy/cpi-inflation-data-accuracy-8bd2a8ae">The Wall Street Journal</a>&nbsp;on a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.bls.gov/cpi/notices/2025/collection-reduction.htm">BLS notice</a>&nbsp;published on Wednesday:
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">The Bureau of Labor Statistics, the office that publishes the inflation rate, told outside economists this week that a hiring freeze at the agency was forcing the survey to cut back on the number of businesses where it checks prices. In last month's inflation report, which examined prices in April, government statisticians had to use a less precise method for guessing price changes more extensively than they did in the past.
Economists say the staffing shortage raises questions about the quality of recent and coming inflation reports. There is no sign of an intentional effort to publish false or misleading statistics. But any problems with the data could have major implications for the economy.
</blockquote>
None of that's not great.
"These errors have consequences," UBS's Paul Donovan&nbsp;<a href="https://secure.ubs.com/global/en/wealthmanagement/insights/chief-investment-office/market-insights/paul-donovan/2025/weekly/dealing-dodgy-data.html">wrote</a>&nbsp;on Friday. "Less understanding of U.S. inflation increases the chances of the Federal Reserve making a policy error (especially with the mantra of ‘data dependency')."
The news only adds to ongoing concerns about the quality of government data, which relies on extensive surveys and analysis of those surveys.
One of the more discussed concerns in recent years has been the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.frbsf.org/research-and-insights/publications/economic-letter/2025/03/do-low-survey-response-rates-threaten-data-dependence/">falling response rates to these surveys</a>. The BLS&nbsp;<a href="https://www.bls.gov/osmr/response-rates/">publishes</a>&nbsp;those response rates, and they've mostly been going down and to the right.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><a href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3ddb9885-ee48-4255-b46f-dd568831d86f_1160x860.png" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><img decoding="async" src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F3ddb9885-ee48-4255-b46f-dd568831d86f_1160x860.png" alt="" /></a><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Response rates for the BLS's household surveys have been trending lower.

It takes a lot of resources to conduct these surveys. But the cost is justified by the value it brings to those making decisions about economic policy, monetary policy, and business.
It's not totally clear how much these developments are affecting the accuracy of the data. But it certainly has affected the robustness of the data and the confidence of those using it.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Two thoughts for stock market investors &#x1f914;</h2>
First, remember&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/p/dont-forecast-economy-with-single-metric">TKer's rule No. 1 of analyzing the economy</a>: Don't count on the signal of a single metric.
Even when the response rates for these BLS surveys were higher, the results were still susceptible to revisions — and sometimes those revisions&nbsp;<a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/business/economy/us-added-818000-fewer-jobs-thought-adding-concerns-economy-rcna167555">were significant</a>.
And even when the data is accurate, it's possible that the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/p/dont-forecast-economy-with-single-metric">bulk of other data tells a conflicting story</a>&nbsp;that may actually be the correct one.
As always, I'd also caution against reading to much into&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/p/long-term-data-trends-short-term-fluctuations">one month's worth of data</a>. Data can&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/p/economic-data-will-zig-zag">zig zag</a>&nbsp;over short periods. The true picture always becomes more clear when you&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/p/the-markets-and-the-economy-are-full">zoom out and examine trends</a>, not single data points.
"For investors, it is important to remember that broad trends matter, and data precision is increasingly an illusion," Donovan&nbsp;<a href="https://secure.ubs.com/global/en/wealthmanagement/insights/chief-investment-office/market-insights/paul-donovan/2025/weekly/dealing-dodgy-data.html">said</a>.
This is why when analyzing the economy, it's important to consider the confluence of data holistically and over time. (Kind of like how we do in TKer's&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/i/164929587/review-of-the-macro-crosscurrents">weekly review of the macro crosscurrents</a>.) It's extremely unlikely that all of the available data will be simultaneously wrong in the same direction over an extended period of time.
Second, the good news is that reported earnings from publicly traded companies are pretty much always accurate.
Recall&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/i/42137695/earnings-drive-stock-prices">TKer Stock Market Truth No. 5</a>: "News about the economy or policy moves markets to the degree they are expected to impact earnings. Earnings (a.k.a. profits) are why you invest in companies."
What investors really care about are earnings because they're the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/p/chart-earnings-drive-stock-prices">most important driver of stock prices</a>. And economic data has mattered because it has helped us calibrate our expectations for those earnings.
Every quarter, publicly traded companies report their earnings along with comprehensive financial statements. This information is not deduced from a sample like what we get in economic surveys. These quarterly statements cover all of the financial transactions that are executed, and the numbers are audited by third-party accountants. Outside of very rare occasions (e.g. accounting fraud, major failure of internal processes), these numbers are accurate and do not get revised.
So regardless of the accuracy of the economic data, what matters to investors is if companies are delivering on earnings.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The quarterly reset &#x1f9ee;</h2>
To that second point, I like to think of quarterly earnings season as a time to reset and recalibrate my views as an investor in the stock market.
And it's not just because the reported financial figures are complete and accurate.
We also learn how successfully companies have been able to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/p/earnings-growth-risks-question">adapt and execute</a>&nbsp;in what may arguably be a difficult business environment as defined by the economic data.
This is not to suggest we should be dismissive of economic data.
Rather we should just be mindful of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/p/conflicting-views-on-same-economic-data">what "hat" we're wearing</a>&nbsp;as we consider data.
When we're wearing our&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tker.co/i/140457648/the-stock-market-hat">stock market hat</a>, economic data matters to the degree it's expected impact to earnings.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Deteriorating economic data quality is not good &#x1f6d1;</h2>
To be clear, deteriorating economic data quality is a negative development for investors.
While investors have the benefit of getting audited financial figures every quarter, the companies they invest in are affected by decisions made by policymakers.
If policymakers are acting on bad data, their decisions may create inefficiencies in the economy and hinder business activity.
Everyone should be in favor of preserving and improving the quality of economic data, especially when that data is informing policy decisions.

Economic Data Quality Deteriorates - 2 Thoughts For Investors

Plug Power Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLUG#NASDAQ">PLUG</a>) shares surged over 25% to $1.22 in Monday trading following multiple positive developments, signaling strong momentum for the hydrogen fuel cell provider. The company announced a major international expansion and large <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/06/g45842540/plug-power-cfo-paul-middleton-underscores-continued-confidence-in-strategic-growth-with-additional">insider share purchase</a>.
What To Know: Plug Power <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45839005/plug-power-allied-green-expand-partnership-with-new-uzbekistan-deal">revealed</a> that its advanced electrolyzer technology will be central to a new $5.5 billion green chemical production facility in Uzbekistan. This facility is a joint effort with Allied Green Ammonia and will focus on producing sustainable aviation fuel, green urea and green diesel.
The agreement, which includes a two-gigawatt electrolyzer deal, deepens the partnership between the companies, who are also collaborating on a three-gigawatt project in Australia. The expansion underscores the growing global demand for green hydrogen solutions and Plug&#8217;s prominent role in large-scale decarbonization projects.

Adding to the bullish sentiment Monday, Plug Power&#8217;s chief financial officer, Paul Middleton, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/06/g45842540/plug-power-cfo-paul-middleton-underscores-continued-confidence-in-strategic-growth-with-additional">purchased</a> an additional 650,000 shares of the company&#8217;s common stock. This open-market transaction, valued at an average price of $1.0339 per share, follows a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/05/45505518/plug-power-stock-gains-after-cfo-share-purchase">previous purchase</a> by Middleton earlier in the month.
The move is being seen as a strong vote of confidence from executive leadership in the company&#8217;s strategic direction and future growth prospects.
&#8220;As we execute and gain market traction, I continue to see meaningful upside and believe Plug remains one of the most compelling growth opportunities in the energy sector,&#8221; Middleton said.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy PLUG Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Plug Power&#8217;s case, it is in the Industrials sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, PLUG has a 52-week high of $3.34 and a 52-week low of $0.69.

Bank of America Securities analyst Vivek Arya on Monday <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tech-stocks" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">recapped takeaways from</a> a tech conference in which 27 companies attended.
Representatives from the following companies attended: Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>); Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>); Intel Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>); Marvell Tech (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRVL#NASDAQ">MRVL</a>); Arm Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARM#NASDAQ">ARM</a>); Coherent (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COHR#NYSE">COHR</a>); Lumentum Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LITE#NASDAQ">LITE</a>); ON Semiconductor (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ON#NASDAQ">ON</a>); Texas Instruments (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TXN#NASDAQ">TXN</a>); Synopsys (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNPS#NASDAQ">SNPS</a>); and Lam Research Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LRCX#NASDAQ">LRCX</a>); KLA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KLAC#NASDAQ">KLAC</a>); and Applied Materials (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMAT#NASDAQ">AMAT</a>).
Arya noted that the overall tone was positive across computing and networking for GPU (Nvidia and AMD) and ASIC (Marvell) vendors.
He maintains Nvidia with a Buy rating with a $180 price target. Nvidia remains best positioned to benefit from the ongoing AI tide, supported by a multi-year lead in performance (AI scaling), pipeline, incumbency, scale, and developer support, he adds.
Also, the company&#8217;s rack-scale systems are in full production and overall AI demand continues to rise for inference reasoning and sovereign AI.

Arm also expects a continued 50% server CPU deployment share this year, Arya said.
Arya raised his price target on Arm to $150 (from $135) on the continued proliferation (market share gain) of Arm-based CPUs in the data center, above peers, though justified by Arm&#8217;s superior growth profile, sticky Licensing business, and expanding Royalty rates.
Concerns about tariff-related pull-ins remain at Intel for PCs. Still, AMD continues to see strong sell-through in the second quarter, aided by higher-ASP new products, and could even see seasonal second-half strength, the analyst said.
Arya said Lam Research, KLA Corp, and Applied Materials indicated strong momentum in leading-edge F/L and advanced DRAM WFE this year, which is helping to offset weakness in China and trailing-edge spending to sustain mid-single-digit Y/Y growth in calendar 2025.
The analyst said KLA Corp also suggested that mid-single-digit Y/Y WFE growth in calendar 2026 could be a plausible assumption led by strong 2nm/GAA investments.
Lam Research noted NAND upgrades in the early stages across multiple customers inside a $40 billion multi-year opportunity, Arya said. Crucially, all vendors suggested China is &#8220;de-risked&#8221; this year despite recent restriction noise and can settle at 25%- 30% of sales, the analyst noted.
Arya raised his Lam Research price target to $100 (from $90), which was justified by improving NAND prospects as a leading-edge foundry/logic, and advanced DRAM (DDR5/HBM) remained strong.
The analyst raised his price target on KLA Corp to $900 (from $825), given increasing leading-edge F/L ramp visibility, advanced packaging TAM expansion, and best-in-class profitability.
He raised his Lumentum price target to $78 (from $70), justified by broad-based strength in the data center.
Arya raised his On Semiconductor price target to $60 (from $55), which was justified following management calling the second-quarter auto bottom with broad-based recovery across auto and industrial expected in the second half.

Warner Bros. Discovery Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBD#NASDAQ">WBD</a>) gained more than 9% on Monday after announcing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/06/n45832964/warner-bros-discovery-to-separate-into-two-leading-media-companies">plans to split</a> into two independent public companies by mid-2026—one focused on streaming and studios, and the other on global television networks.
The stock gave up all the gains through Monday's trading session
CEO David Zaslav will lead the streaming and studios unit, including HBO, Warner Bros. film assets, and Max. CFO Gunnar Wiedenfels will become CEO of the new network company, which includes CNN, Discovery, and TNT Sports.

Bank of America analyst Jessica Reif Ehrlich called the May S&amp;P debt downgrade a "strategic positive," noting it removed restrictive covenants that had previously limited corporate restructuring options.
Ehrlich, who had long advocated for a spin-off of the Streaming &amp; Studios segment to unlock value, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/reiteration/25/06/45731052/warner-bros-debt-downgrade-is-an-ironically-positive-event-analyst" rel="noreferrer noopener">maintained </a>a Buy rating and projected $38.2 billion in 2025 revenue. She also pointed to DTC growth and a potential advertising recovery as key catalysts.
With Monday's <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/45834502/warner-bros-stock-surges-nearly-9-in-monday-pre-market-whats-going-on" rel="noreferrer noopener">announcement</a>, Warner Bros. Discovery formalized a shift more than a year in the making. The split is expected to provide a sharper strategic focus, enabling the streaming unit to scale its growth while the networks division concentrates on maximizing free cash flow and driving long-term shareholder value.
Investors may also watch media-focused ETFs such as Communication Services Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLC#NYSE">XLC</a>) and iShares Evolved U.S. Media and Entertainment ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IEME#NYSE">IEME</a>).
Price Action: WBD shares are trading higher by 2.55% at $9.57 at the last check on Monday.

The bad news for Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and its shareholders continues in 2025, with a highly public feud between CEO Elon Musk and President Donald Trump adding to question marks like demand, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45824984/exclusive-trump-can-hurt-elons-businesses-says-tesla-protest-organizer-but-at-this-point-whos-left-to-buy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">brand damage,</a><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45824984/exclusive-trump-can-hurt-elons-businesses-says-tesla-protest-organizer-but-at-this-point-whos-left-to-buy"> and robotaxis.</a>
A new survey shows whether investors are ready for Tesla to part ways with the dynamic CEO.
What Happened: Tesla stock <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45821929/trump-vs-musk-president-selling-his-tesla-is-targeting-robotaxis-next">suffered its largest </a>one-day market capitalization decline with a $152 billion drop after Musk's feud with Trump.
The drop continues a highly volatile year for Tesla stock, with rises and falls related to Musk's push into politics and Trump&#8217;s 2024 election win.
While a close friendship between Trump and Musk was once viewed as a catalyst for Tesla&#8217;s stock price to go up, it also led to drops, with Tesla suffering brand damage and seeing protests due to Musk's political push.
A feud between Trump and Musk could send Tesla shares down even more in the future. Benzinga recently polled readers about the electric vehicle company&#8217;s future.
"The battle with Donald Trump could hurt Tesla&#8217;s brand value and image even more as the company looks to recover from a rough year that saw protests and declining sales. Do you think Tesla&#8217;s Board of Directors should replace Musk as CEO?" Benzinga asked.
Here are the results:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>No: 45%</li>
<li>Yes: 38%</li>
<li>Don't Know/Not Sure: 17%</li>
</ul>
The poll found a near majority aren't ready to see Tesla's Board of Directors move on from Musk with 45% saying No. While this was a near-majority, the answer of Yes followed close behind at 38%, with the remaining&nbsp; 17% of readers unsure of where they stood.

</ul>
Why It's Important: A recent Wall Street Journal report suggested Tesla's board had discussed the possibility of moving <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/management/25/05/45155242/elon-musk-out-as-tesla-ceo-in-2025-prediction-markets-put-little-faith-in-wsj-report-here-are-the-top-replacement-picks">on from Musk.</a>
Musk has indicated that his time in the White House is over, and he will be spending significant time helping to shape Tesla&#8217;s future. This coincides with the launch of Robotaxis in Texas this month.
The Tesla CEO has said he plans to be at Tesla for at least<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45126370/elon-musk-will-remain-tesla-ceo-for-at-least-5-years-says-dan-ives-as-company-calls-replacement-rumors-absolutely-false"> five more years, </a>which would mean the Board of Directors would have to make a change to get rid of him.
The board may be unwilling to get rid of the person who has meant so much to the company, even with recent controversy and high share price volatility.
Prediction market <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/musk-out-as-tesla-ceo-in-2025?tid=1749487851486">Polymarket </a>currently has a 15% chance that Musk is out as the Tesla CEO In 2025. The odds hit 21% on June 5 as the feud with Trump escalated.
On the prediction market <a href="https://kalshi.com/markets/kxteslaceochange/new-tesla-ceo" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kalshi</a>, there is a 14% chance that Musk will be out as the Tesla CEO this year. The odds hit 21% on June 6.

The study was conducted by Benzinga from June 5, 2025, through June 9, 2025. It included the responses of a diverse population of adults 18 or older. Opting into the survey was completely voluntary, with no incentives offered to potential respondents. The study reflects results from 212 adults.
