<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Here We Go Again&nbsp;</h2>
Warren Buffett&#8217;s mentor Benjamin Graham famously described the stock market as a mentally ill man (&#8220;Mr. Market&#8221;) who toggled between euphoria and despair. There&#8217;s an additional twist today, with Wall Street leaning left. Investment professionals on our X&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/i/lists/1612691584155324417">Market Watchers list</a>&nbsp;alternate between rage against Trump and contempt for him.&nbsp;
We saw that today, as markets&nbsp;<a href="https://www.zerohedge.com/market-recaps/bitcoin-bid-gold-skids-stocks-bounce-amid-soft-data-slump">ripped higher</a>&nbsp;after hours on President Trump&#8217;s comments. ZeroHedge led with the news that Trump said he wouldn&#8217;t fire Fed Chairman Powell. But on our Market Watchers list, the focus was on tariffs. On Monday, they railed against Trump for wrecking the economy (as they saw it) with tariffs; on Tuesday, they mocked him for signaling some flexibility on them.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tuesday&#8217;s Contempt For Trump</h2>

&#8220;Trump capitulated&#8221; because he said the final tariffs on China are going to be&nbsp;somewhere below 145%? We&#8217;ll see.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Maybe Trump&#8217;s Critics Are Right</h2>
Let&#8217;s concede the possibility that Trump is going to completely fold on tariffs. On the one hand, America&#8217;s trade deficits have been one of Trump&#8217;s two biggest political concerns since <a href="https://www.playboy.com/read/playboy-interview/playboy-interview-donald-trump-1990/">at least 1990</a> (his other concern: avoiding nuclear war).

Also, Trump&#8217;s strongest support today comes from groups that don&#8217;t own a lot of stock, like young men (and very young women).

And, as we saw above, some Wall Streeters have contempt for him.&nbsp;
On the other hand&#8230;what? Trump is going to fold on his goal of reindustrializing America to please them? It&#8217;s possible, but we wouldn&#8217;t bet on that. Here&#8217;s what we have been betting on.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How We&#8217;re Playing The Market Roller Coaster&nbsp;</h2>
Our gameplan has basically been to buy the dips and fade the rallies. That&#8217;s what we&#8217;ve done so far this week.&nbsp;
On Monday, when the market tanked, we took profits on a couple of our bearish big tech bets:

Senator Dick Durbin Posts On X "The Decision Of Whether To Run For Re-election Has Not Been Easy. I Truly Love The Job Of Being A United States Senator. But In My Heart, I Know It's Time To Pass The Torch. So, I Am Announcing Today That I Will Not Be Seeking Re-election At The End Of My Term"

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent called for a sweeping overhaul of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank, criticizing China's export-driven model and urging a global economic reset aligned with the Trump administration's redefined vision <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s">of the Washington Consensus.</a>
"We must make the IMF the IMF again," Bessent said Wednesday in a panel hosted by the Institute of International Finance during the the Fund&#8217;s Spring Meetings in Washington. 
Bessent criticized what he described as "mission creep" that's diverted the fund's focus toward climate, gender and social programs. He argued that such priorities have "crowded out" the IMF's core responsibility: ensuring global monetary stability.
Despite growing speculation about the future of the U.S. dollar in a shifting global order, Bessent reaffirmed the administration's commitment to a strong dollar policy.
"A strong dollar means having the right policies in place to attract capital and inspire confidence," he said, adding that exchange rates are ultimately set by markets. 
"The U.S. will remain the world's reserve currency for my lifetime—and frankly, I'm not sure anyone else wants the job."
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">IMF Policies: Back To Basics?</h3>
Bessent called for a wholesale reset of the Bretton Woods institutions, arguing both the IMF and World Bank have strayed from their founding charters. 
"These institutions have enduring value, but mission creep has knocked them off course," he said.
For the IMF, Bessent said its lending should remain temporary and tied to strong reform commitments, pointing to Argentina as an example of progress. 
Yet, he stressed that not all countries should expect support: "Sometimes, the IMF needs to say no."
He also took direct aim at the IMF's 2024 External Sector Report, calling it symptomatic of a broader reluctance to confront hard truths. 
"The IMF has been whistling past the graveyard," he said.
Bessent urged the fund to call out surplus countries, particularly China, for pursuing policies that distort global trade and currency markets. 
"China's opaque currency practices and unsustainable lending for many decades must be addressed," he said, emphasizing the need for stronger scrutiny of bilateral lending practices.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">China: The Heart Of Global Imbalances</h3>
Bessent's sharpest criticism was reserved for Beijing. 
"China's economic model is built on exporting its way out of trouble. It's unsustainable—not just for China, but for the world," he said.
Recent data, Bessent noted, shows China tilting further away from consumption and toward industrial overcapacity. 
He accused the country of suppressing wages and encouraging excess savings, creating persistent trade imbalances and undermining global demand.
&#8220;These practices contribute to global dependence on U.S. demand to Spur growth. They also lead to a global economy that is weaker and more vulnerable,&#8221; Bessent said. 
"China must shift toward supporting its own consumers," he said. "We all know change is needed. Even China knows it."
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">World Bank: No Blank Checks</h3>
Like the IMF, Bessent said the World Bank must eliminate vague, slogan-driven initiatives and reorient around clear developmental outcomes. 
He advocated an "all-of-the-above" approach to energy financing, including lifting restrictions on nuclear and fossil fuels to boost affordable base-load generation in emerging markets.
"Energy abundance sparks economic abundance," Bessent said, encouraging the bank to move beyond climate finance targets and instead focus on sustainable growth.
He also called for firm graduation timelines for countries like China, which he argued no longer qualify as developing economies and should stop receiving concessional financing.
On Ukraine, Bessent was unequivocal: "No one who financed or supplied the Russian war machine will be eligible for funds earmarked for Ukraine's reconstruction."

Bessent Blasts China's Economic Model, Calls For Global Reset, IMF Refocus

An 18-year-old recently called into "The Ramsey Show," hoping that Dave Ramsey, the financial expert, could give him some advice. However, the best change can often require big sacrifices, and not everyone is comfortable with making those moves.&nbsp;
The caller <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejbbKVTqXZc">attempted to justify how he ended up with high debt</a> and beat down suggestions, but Ramsey didn't fold. In fact, he got more upfront as the call continued.
"Your situation sucks beyond belief," Ramsey stated in the middle of the call.
The call indicates how bad financial decisions can quickly snowball. Recovering from these types of setbacks requires taking responsibility and making hard decisions.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Unveiling The 6-Figure Debt</h2>
The 18-year-old quickly told Ramsey that he expects to have anywhere from $100,000 to $125,000 in student debt by the time he graduates college. While many people have to take out loans to afford college, some of the caller's debt was avoidable.
He currently owns a $41,000 car, which comes to a $1,000 monthly loan payment. Meanwhile, the 18-year-old makes $1,500 to $2,000 per month in retail plus his side business. He also has no money saved.
Ramsey urged the caller to sell the $41,000 car, but there were two obstacles. First, selling the car will result in negative equity. The trade-in value is only $27,000, which falls short of the loan's balance. However, the 18-year-old also said that there is a lien on the car, so he can't sell it even if he wants to.
Ramsey suggested putting $10,000 on the credit card to get up to date on equity and get out of the lien. He then suggested buying a $2,000 car, resulting in a small amount of credit card debt compared to the much larger amount on the auto loan.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">More Problems Strike</h2>
Although Ramsey offered a path out of the auto loan, which involved using a credit card, the caller explained that he couldn't take that route. It turns out the 18-year-old only has $3,500 in available credit. Ramsey suggested talking with the bank and requesting a note that can cover the difference.
The caller then expressed confusion about getting a replacement car, given the monthly loan payments he expected to make. However, Ramsey said nothing about a loan and only wanted the caller to buy a $2,000 car.
The caller also didn't want to entertain the suggestion of making the campus work without a car for two months just to get himself in a better financial position. Then, Ramsey had enough.
"We keep throwing suggestions out, and the only answer you've got is that it doesn't work," he stated.
Ramsey proceeds to tell the 18-year-old that his life the way he has it set up does not work. He also said that the caller's financial habits are extremely problematic and require a change.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Stop Making Excuses And Create Change</h2>
Ramsey told the caller that he has to make uncomfortable decisions now to avoid harder times in the future. He said that the 18-year-old's situation will get worse if he continues to accept his situation and make excuses instead of going through a complete transformation.
"You may need to quit school," Ramsey declared while suggesting the caller has to put in 80-90 hour workweeks to get his finances under control. He can always opt for a gap year and return to college when he is in a better financial position.
Ramsey also explained that while he feels bad about the caller's dad leaving the family, it doesn't permit the caller to make bad financial decisions and attempt to justify them.
The college student also initially mentioned that he downgraded a $70,000 car to a $41,000 car. While this may look like a good financial decision on the surface, Ramsey shot down that assertion. The 18-year-old has no business owning that type of car if the monthly loan payment is $1,000 and he makes $2,000 on a really good month. All of this debt doesn't even factor in the student loans.
Excuses may garner sympathy, but your net worth is your net worth. Your bank account doesn't care what excuses you provide if you don't have enough money for a down payment or another significant purchase. Taking control of the situation and having a desire to improve your finances can lead to a major financial transformation.&nbsp;

<ul>
<li>Meta said that all "eligible advertisers globally" will be able to run ads on Threads, marking an expansion from the company's initial testing with a few U.S. and Japanese companies, which began in January.</li>
<li>Meta's testing of Threads ads marks the company's initial foray into generating revenue for its Twitter-like service, which debuted in July 2023.</li>
<li>"I expect Threads to continue on its trajectory to become the leading discussion platform and eventually reach 1 billion people over the next several years," Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said in January.</li>
</ul>
<a href="https://www.cnbc.com/quotes/META/">Meta</a> has opened up its Threads microblogging service to all advertisers.
The social networking giant said Wednesday in a blog post that all "eligible advertisers globally" will be able to run ads on Threads, marking an expansion from the <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/01/24/meta-to-begin-testing-ads-on-threads-its-micro-blogging-app.html">company's initial testing</a> with a few U.S. and Japanese companies, which began in January.
&nbsp;
Businesses running Threads ads can also access Meta's so-called inventory filter that determines whether their promotions appear near offensive content, Meta said in the blog post.
"These ads will be delivered in select markets at launch and will roll out to additional markets as we continue to test and learn," Meta said in the post.
Meta's testing of Threads ads represents the company's initial foray into generating revenue for its Twitter-like service that <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2023/07/05/meta-launches-instagram-threads-messaging-app-challenging-twitter.html">debuted</a> in July 2023.
In January, Meta chief financial officer Susan Li said during a <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/01/29/meta-q4-earnings-report-2024.html">fourth-quarter earnings call</a> with analysts that the company's "introduction of ads on Threads will be gradual" and executives "don't anticipate it being a meaningful driver of overall impression or revenue growth in 2025."
Analysts have previously noted that Threads could potentially be a major source of revenue for Meta, akin to X, formerly known as Twitter, before Tesla chief Elon Musk <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2022/10/29/a-brief-history-of-twitter-from-its-founding-in-2006-to-musk-takeover.html">bought</a> the social messaging platform in 2022. Twitter's annual sales were $5 billion in 2021.
&nbsp;
Threads has over 320 million monthly active users "and has been adding more than 1 million sign-ups per day," Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg told analysts in January.
"I expect Threads to continue on its trajectory to become the leading discussion platform and eventually reach 1 billion people over the next several years," Zuckerberg said at the time.

Old Dominion Freight Line, Inc.

Here's a breakdown of what the company reported:
<ul>
<li>Revenue declined&nbsp;5.8%&nbsp;year-over-year (Y/Y) to&nbsp;$1.375 billion, slighly beating the consensus of&nbsp;$1.37 billion.</li>
<li>There was a 6.3% Y/Y decrease in LTL tons per day, a 5% Y/Y drop in LTL shipments per day and, a 1.4% Y/Y reduction in LTL weight per shipment.</li>
<li>LTL revenue per hundredweight, excluding fuel surcharges, rose&nbsp;4.1% Y/Y in the quarter.</li>
<li>EPS was&nbsp;$1.19,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> beating the consensus of&nbsp;$1.14.</a></li>
<li>Operating income fell&nbsp;12.5%&nbsp;to&nbsp;$338 million, with an operating ratio of&nbsp;75.4%, compared to&nbsp;73.5%&nbsp;a year ago.</li>

</ul>
Old Dominion CEO Marty Freeman said the company&#8217;s financial results for the first quarter reflect &#8220;ongoing softness in the domestic economy.&#8221; 
&#8220;While we were encouraged to see signs of improving demand during the first quarter, there continues to be uncertainty with the economy,&#8221; he added.
The company brass insists they are &#8220;uniquely positioned to respond to an improving economy.&#8221;

At Google Public Sector, we are committed to helping our customers execute their missions. Now, we're expanding this commitment by adding support for Palantir's FedStart platform, so public sector customers can utilize software and applications on Google Cloud's accredited infrastructure through the Palantir <a href="https://www.palantir.com/offerings/fedstart/">FedStart</a> platform.
Palantir FedStart helps U.S. government agencies achieve compliance, scale operations, and access innovative mission-critical solutions from leading independent software vendors (ISVs), including many built natively on Google Cloud. The combination of world-class solutions, Google's global-scale infrastructure and security, and Palantir's turnkey compliance will accelerate innovation across U.S. government agencies. This will provide government agencies with certified solutions across multiple cloud platforms, while upholding the highest security and compliance standards.
Our collaboration with Palantir also gives ISVs a faster path to accreditation and impact. At launch, the first ISV to use this new capability is Anthropic. Its <a href="https://www.anthropic.com/enterprise">Claude for Enterprise</a> application <a href="https://investors.palantir.com/news-details/2025/Anthropic-Joins-Palantirs-FedStart-Program-to-Deploy-Claude-Application/">will be available</a> to federal government agencies through Palantir FedStart on Google Cloud.
By partnering with industry leaders to bring cutting-edge technologies to the U.S. government, Google can accelerate public sector mission impact and outcomes. Key benefits of this offering include:
<ul>
<li>Accelerated ISV onboarding: Palantir's FedStart solution will streamline the FedRAMP High and IL5 accreditation process for ISVs built on Google Cloud.</li>
<li>Enhanced AI capabilities: In addition to Gemini on Google Cloud, government customers will gain access to Anthropic's Claude for Enterprise and Palantir's technologies that back the FedStart offering on Google Cloud - including Apollo, Rubix, Foundry, and AIP.</li>
<li>Secure and scalable infrastructure: Google Cloud's secure and scalable infrastructure will ensure the reliable and responsible deployment of AI solutions for sensitive government use cases, as opposed to the inherent limitations of legacy GovClouds. To thrive in this AI-driven era, our public sector customers need a modern cloud partner offering unmatched scale, features, and security that GovClouds cannot deliver, which is why <a href="https://cloud.google.com/blog/topics/public-sector/beyond-govclouds-building-a-secure-ai-enabled-government?e=48754805">we are committed to certifying our entire U.S. cloud infrastructure at IL5</a>.</li>

Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) is up 7% on the day as a wave of whale activity and institutional interest boosts optimism for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/dogecoin-doge-price-prediction">a major breakout</a>.
What Happened: Trader Tardigrade highlighted that DOGE/BTC has broken out of a descending trendline, suggesting DOGE may be preparing for a strong leg higher.

Trader &#8216;Investments_CEO&#8217; <a href="https://x.com/Investments_CEO/status/1914833791123689663">predicted</a> Dogecoin is "very close" to setting a new all-time high, citing rapidly rising smart money activity.
Nology <a href="https://x.com/nology3000/status/1914854408497848523">remains</a> bullish, though he admits he may have underestimated DOGE's full potential in a max bull scenario. 
He's watching closely as price approaches a key resistance zone, what he calls the "big red bar", which may either confirm a breakout or reject the move.
Crypto chart analyst Ali Martinez observed DOGE breaking out of an ascending triangle pattern, with an upside target around $0.195.
