Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning Apple Stock In The Last 15 Years

Disney (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) and Universal, the powerhouse studios behind Star Wars, Frozen, and Kung Fu Panda, have filed a major copyright lawsuit involving an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/06/45847032/ibm-acquires-ai-startup-seek-and-launches-500m-backed-watsonx-ai-labs-in-nyc-to-tackle-data-innovation-with-agentic-intelligence">AI startup</a>, described by <a href="https://www.entrepreneur.com/business-news/disney-universal-sue-ai-startup-midjourney-plagiarism/493100">Entrepreneur</a> as a potential first for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45651756/streaming-wars-heat-up-how-moonvalleys-123m-ai-bet-could-shape-hollywoods-future">Hollywood</a>. The case targets Midjourney, a text-to-image generator that allegedly enabled users to produce visuals featuring copyrighted characters owned by the studios.
Filed in the U.S. District Court in Los Angeles, the 110-page complaint accuses Midjourney of building a commercial enterprise off protected intellectual property. According to the lawsuit, the studios had issued cease-and-desist letters to Midjourney's counsel, demanding the unauthorized content be stopped.

</ul>
&#8220;Midjourney, which has attracted millions of subscribers and made $300 million last year alone, is focused on its own bottom line and ignored Plaintiffs' demands,&#8221; the filing reads. When those warnings were ignored, Disney and Universal moved forward with legal action. The lawsuit says that Midjourney&#8217;s paid plans reportedly range from $10 to $120 per month, contributing to its explosive financial growth since launching.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Midjourney&#8217;s Fast Growth Draws Major Legal Firepower</h2>
Founded in 2021, Midjourney has grown rapidly by offering AI-generated images within seconds, fueled entirely by user prompts. With just 11 full-time employees, the company <a href="https://www.midjourney.com/home">describes</a> itself as a small, self-funded operation. The lawsuit alleges its rapid expansion has come at the expense of long-established copyrights, turning beloved characters into AI fodder without authorization.

The lawsuit highlights a roster of well-known characters allegedly reproduced by Midjourney's platform. Disney's complaint cites the unauthorized use of Darth Vader from Star Wars, Elsa from Frozen, Lightning McQueen from Cars, and Homer Simpson from The Simpsons. Universal's claims include the depiction of Minions from Despicable Me, Po from Kung Fu Panda, Shrek, as well as Hiccup and Toothless from How to Train Your Dragon.
According to the filing, only the studios maintain legal rights to commercialize these characters and develop content or merchandise around them. One line in the complaint describes Midjourney as a "bottomless pit of plagiarism," accusing the startup of undermining the basic framework of U.S. copyright law. The studios are seeking a jury trial to establish boundaries around what generative AI platforms can legally create.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Broader Battle Looms For AI And Copyright Control</h2>
In the filing, Disney and Universal frame the lawsuit as more than a defense of individual characters, describing Midjourney's business model as a direct threat to the creative economy and the broader U.S. film industry.
Calling the infringement "systematic, ongoing, and willful," the plaintiffs argue the damage is both substantial and irreparable, not just to their own properties but to the incentive system that fuels the $260 billion American motion picture economy.
The lawsuit arrives during a critical moment for AI litigation. Just one week prior, Reddit (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RDDT#NYSE">RDDT</a>) filed its own suit against Anthropic, alleging unauthorized use of its forum content for AI training purposes,<a href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/reddit-lawsuit-anthropic-ai-3b9624dd"> The Wall Street Journal</a> reports. Getty Images (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GETY#NYSE">GETY</a>) is also<a href="https://copyrightalliance.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Getty-Images-v.-Stability-AI-Complaint.pdf"> pursuing</a> a multimillion dollar case against Stability AI for allegedly scraping over 12 million copyrighted visuals from its platform.

MicroAlgo Cautions Investors Against Relying On Unofficial Online Commentary And Reaffirms Commitment To Providing Accurate Information Via SEC Filings And Official Channels

BofA Securities analyst Jessica Reif Ehrlich <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/WBD/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">maintained a Buy</a> on Warner Bros. Discovery (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBD#NASDAQ">WBD</a>) with a price target of $14 on Monday.
Ehrlich noted that Warner Bros has a compelling assortment of assets. The company&#8217;s upcoming catalysts included easing Studio comparisons, potential recovery in advertising, continued growth in DTC and execution of further strategic options to drive shareholder value.

On June 9, Warner Bros announced plans to separate the company into <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45845734/warner-bros-discoverys-long-predicted-split-is-now-official">two publicly traded entities in a tax-free transaction</a>. The analyst reiterated having long viewed exploring strategic options, such as the announced spin, as the best way to unlock the significant unrecognized value of the company.
While several different permutations exist around the specific corporate structures of both entities, Ehrlich explored numerous hypothetical transaction scenarios that indicate the potential for significant equity value creation relative to current levels.
The analyst had long noted that Warner Bros. Studio is the crown jewel of all studios in media. The value inherent in the IP and libraries of this asset has been overshadowed by substantial leverage and secular challenges within the linear business, the analyst said. With the streaming and studio assets soon to be unburdened by the constraints of an onerous debt load, she noted the company would have greater flexibility to invigorate the studio. It could make this asset a more attractive target for companies wishing to acquire more scale.
Ehrlich noted that investor sentiment related to the linear business is quite negative, given the existing secular challenges within the ecosystem. However, the analyst pointed out that equity value creation opportunities remain underappreciated at current valuations and under the appropriate capital structure and management team.
She noted several options, including managing the business for cash, consolidating with other similar linear assets, asset sales, and private equity investments, as potential vehicles to create shareholder value.
Ehrlich projected 2025 sales of $38.2 billion.

Warner Bros Spin-Off Could Unlock Hidden Value As Ads Rebound, Streaming Gains Momentum: Analyst

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/12/42618228/mark-cuban-admits-ive-gotten-beat-after-losing-20-million-on-shark-tank-startups">Mark Cuban</a> isn't usually moved by emotion on "Shark Tank." But when Kaitlin Mogentale stood in front of the Sharks in 2022 and revealed her sustainable chip company was hanging by a financial thread — Cuban didn't flinch. He invested $500,000.
Mogentale's pitch started with a problem: 54 million tons of food are wasted in the U.S. each year. Her solution? Pulp Pantry — a snack company that turns leftover fruit and vegetable pulp into fiber-rich, potato-free chips.
"We take the thousands of pounds of organic produce that would otherwise go unloved every single week," she <a href="https://youtu.be/-RuHX7YSmgA?si=wmZbFzXwhzZjWidn">explained on the episode</a>, "and upcycle them into a line of real veggie chips… not corn, not potato starch."

</ul>
The chips were a hit with the Sharks, but not everyone bit. Mogentale asked for $500,000 in exchange for 10% equity — a $5 million valuation. Barbara Corcoran bowed out, calling the snack space too competitive. Emma Grede passed too, saying the valuation "was a little nuts." Kevin O'Leary offered $500,000 but wanted 25%. Lori Greiner floated a $500,000 loan at 6% interest over three years — plus the same 10% equity.
Then it was Cuban's turn.
Before making his offer, Cuban asked a simple question: "What's the lowest you've ever been at?"
Mogentale hesitated. "I don't know if I should tell you."
"We've all been negative," Cuban said, encouraging her to open up.
She admitted her balance had dropped to "like a thousand dollars."

Cuban didn't just relate — he respected the grind. "You have to ask yourself where can you get to… because that's really where the value comes from."
Long before the billions, Cuban was eating mustard sandwiches, sleeping on the floor of a Dallas apartment with five roommates, and driving a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/08/40442345/mark-cuban-says-he-drove-cars-that-cost-200-with-holes-in-the-floorboard-and-lived-off-mac-and-c">$200 car with holes in the floorboard</a>. His credit was trashed, and he once had to cut up his credit cards. He's said in interviews that he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/02/43885487/billionaire-mark-cuban-said-the-first-step-to-getting-rich-is-giving-things-up-drink-water-eat-mac-and-cheese-and-save-every-penny">lived off macaroni and cheese</a> and powdered milk. That grit helped him spot the same in Mogentale.
He offered $500,000 for 20%. Mogentale countered at 15%. They settled at 17%.
"I just had professors who were like, ‘This deserves to exist in the world,'" she said of her early days, when a USC grant helped launch the brand after she pitched the idea in class. The inspiration? Watching a friend juice vegetables and throw out the pulp. Her first recipe? Carrot cookies.

By the time of filming, Pulp Pantry had pulled in just under $250,000 in annual sales and sales and was expected to hit $500,000 by year's end. Production costs sat at $1.70 per bag, and retail prices ranged from $4.99 to $5.49. Despite the slow climb, Mogentale said the company was finally profitable — barely.
But Cuban saw potential. "These are companies on a mission to make the world a better place," he said, referencing his other snack-related investments like Unreal Deli and Wanna Date.
Post-Shark Tank, Pulp Pantry began expanding its distribution footprint — appearing in stores like Good Eggs, Ozark Natural Foods, Fresh Thyme, H-E-B's Central Market, GoPuff/BevMo, Imperfect Foods, and Vitacost.
Today, the brand rebranded as Trashy in early 2024 but stayed true to its mission. According to <a href="https://sharktankinsights.com/pulp-pantry-shark-tank-update/">Shark Tank Insights</a>, the company is now worth roughly $4.8 million, growing about 10% annually.&nbsp;

Mark Cuban Invested $500,000 In A Potato-Free Chip Startup After The Founder Said Her Bank Account Dropped To $1,000 — 'We've All Been Negative'

An analyst downgraded AI cloud-computing company CoreWeave Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWV#NASDAQ">CRWV</a>) on Monday based on valuation concerns after its shares soared following <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/ipos/25/03/44520808/nvidia-backed-coreweave-ipo-5-things-investors-need-to-know-before-buying-shares">its March IPO.</a>
The CoreWeave Analyst: Bank of America analyst Brad Sills downgraded CoreWeave from Buy to Neutral and raised the price target from $76 to $185.

 The Analyst Takeaways: CoreWeave stock was downgraded due to overvaluation concerns, and Sills&#8217;s new investor note already prices the upside into shares.
The analyst said CoreWeave stock is up 145% since first-quarter financial results.
"We believe much of the near-term upside has been priced in and downgrade our rating to Neutral," Sills said.
The analyst said CoreWeave trades at a premium of 25x for its enterprise value divided by EBIT. Sills is also concerned the company will need "significant debt funding" to help with its capex buildout and revenue upside.
Sills sees CoreWeave&#8217;s competition with Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), Alphabet Inc (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>), and Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) as costly, as those companies have "much bigger scale" and can more easily spend on their capex.
While Sills highlighted the company&#8217;s high valuation and less upside with the recent share run-up, the analyst had several positive things to say about the stock, alongside the increasing price target.
The note highlights the stock&#8217;s positives, including new hyperscaler customers, expansion with OpenAI, and a recent debt raise at a lower rate.
"In Q1, CoreWeave signed a $4 billion expansion deal with OpenAI, only two months after the initial deal was announced in March, bringing the total contract value to $15.9 billion."
Sills aid AI capex growth rates are peaking, but still very healthy.
"Capital expenditures for AI infrastructure are forecasted to reach $206 billion in CY27, growing 4% y/y, down from 65% in CY25."
The analyst said new customer additions could help reduce customer concentration risk.
CRWV Price Action: CoreWeave stock is up 5.3% to $155.11 on Monday versus a trading range of $33.52 to $166.60 since going public. Shares are up 290% since the IPO.

CoreWeave's 290% Rally Raises Valuation Fears, Analyst Says 'Upside Has Been Priced In'

J.P. Morgan analyst Seth M. Seifman expects small- and mid-cap defense firms, including Kratos Defense &amp; Security Solutions Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KTOS#NASDAQ">KTOS</a>), Leonardo DRS Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DRS#NASDAQ">DRS</a>), and Mercury Systems Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRCY#NASDAQ">MRCY</a>), to show stronger performance in the second half of 2025.
Seifman&#8217;s outlook is supported by easing concerns over budget uncertainty, supply chain disruptions, and program delays. He also cited increased efforts by the Department of Defense to expand the defense industrial base and accelerate next-generation technology initiatives. 
These developments are likely to benefit firms such as Kratos, with strong growth potential, and DRS, with robust cash flow and balance sheet strength.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Kratos Defense: Growth Acceleration Expected in H2</h3>
Seifman raised Kratos&#8217;s December 2025 price target to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/KTOS/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">$44 from $33</a>, maintaining a Neutral rating. The new valuation is based on 40 times the firm&#8217;s estimated fiscal 2027 adjusted EBITDA of $180 million, discounted back one year.
He noted short-term challenges in Kratos&#8217; Unmanned segment and the transition of a microwave production facility, which are expected to weigh on second-quarter results. However, he projects significant growth acceleration in the second half of 2025 as major programs ramp up.
The analyst highlighted progress in Kratos&#8217; Tactical Drone initiatives, including apparent support from Marine Corps leadership. While the company is making strides in hypersonics—especially through MACH-TB 2.0—and may secure contracts under programs like Anaconda, Helios, and Vulcan, Seifman believes much of this potential is already reflected in the current share price.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Leonardo DRS: Poised to Outperform Peers</h3>
For Leonardo DRS, Seifman raised the December 2025 price target to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/DRS/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">$48 from $33</a>, maintaining a Neutral rating. The updated target is based on 40 times the 2026 adjusted EPS estimate of $1.21.
While the EPS estimate remains unchanged, strong first-quarter results suggest DRS could exceed its 2025 revenue guidance. Seifman sees margin improvement and believes the company deserves a valuation premium over larger peers due to its stronger growth profile.
He also views DRS as well-positioned to benefit from the U.S. government&#8217;s increased focus on shipbuilding, including potential opportunities in submarine systems. Its healthy balance sheet, he added, gives the company strategic flexibility for mergers, acquisitions, and potential capital returns.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Mercury Systems: Recovery Taking Shape</h3>
Seifman raised his December 2025 price target on Mercury Systems to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/MRCY/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">$56 from $48</a> while maintaining a Neutral rating. The valuation is based on 20 times the estimated 2026 EBITDA of approximately $180 million.
The analyst noted lingering concerns about Mercury&#8217;s execution and the long-term impact of prior missteps. However, fiscal 2025 could mark a turning point.
Seifman expects a book-to-bill ratio of 1.1 for the year, supported by $33 million in new orders.
Margin expansion remains a key focus. In line with company guidance, Seifman forecasts a 14% adjusted EBITDA margin in the fourth quarter and 11.8% for the full year. He expects margins to improve to 16% in 2026 and approach 20% over the longer term.
Price Action: KTOS trading higher by 2.06% at $42.09, DRS lower by 0.33% at $45.17, and MRCY down by 0.04% at $51.55 at the last check Monday.

Shares of Circle Internet Group Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRCL#NYSE">CRCL</a>), the issuer of the USDC stablecoin, continued their meteoric rise on Monday, hitting new highs in another volatile session. The rally extends a powerful run since the company's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45821941/circle-crcl-stock-surges-after-successful-ipo-debut-whats-going-on">blockbuster IPO on June 5</a>.
