Law enforcement agencies in China and the United States recently collaborated to tackle a transnational telecommunications fraud, recovering more than $1.7 million for a company in Zhejiang province and its US partner, China's Ministry of Public Security said on Thursday.
The case was handled jointly by China's Ministry of Public Security and the US Department of Homeland Security, according to the ministry's statement. Both countries' law enforcement departments are continuing to investigate the case actively, it added.
With telecommunications fraud increasing globally, the ministry noted, these types of crimes pose common challenges across borders.
Chinese public security authorities remain committed to a strict, law-based approach to combatting transnational telecommunications fraud, and are deepening cooperation with law enforcement agencies in other countries, the ministry said.

Welltower: Q3 Earnings Insights

Markets have moved in dramatic fashion post election cycle and sharp moves like this often settle into a new rhythm before continuing.  For this reason, we will consider a strong stock with solid options volume and beefy option premiums.  This allows us to trap the stock through a range of motion as it settles into its new pattern.
Understanding the short iron condor&nbsp;&nbsp;
The short iron condor assumes price action will sit in a range of motion, and while it sits in that range, we will allow the collected premium to erode.&nbsp;
The short iron condor is created by selling a long call spread out of the money and selling a put spread out of the money.&nbsp; The goal is to allow time decay and time premium to erode so that we collect revenue.&nbsp; In that sense, we are paid for sitting still over the passage of time.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Sell to open 1 NFLX 20 Dec 805 CALLS&nbsp;
Buy to open 1 NFLX 20 Dec 810 CALLS&nbsp;
Sell to open 1 NFLX 20 Dec 700 PUTS&nbsp;
Buy to open 1 NFLX 20 Dec 695 PUTS&nbsp;
The total credit is $2.17 at the writing – and it is the maximum profit that the position will yield.&nbsp; The maximum loss is calculated by subtracting the difference between the strikes ($5) here, from the collected premium.&nbsp; $5- $2.17 = $2.83 risk&nbsp;
We choose to sell premium as it carries a higher probability of success as markets will only trend 30% of the time and will sit in ranges 70% of the time.&nbsp; This, of course, is an approximate as price action varies from stock to stock.&nbsp;
The strategy result provides three choices for exiting the trade. 
<ol start="1">
<li>To buy the iron condor back once it gets to an acceptable profit margin for you.  I customarily look for 30% to 50% profit for these kinds of trades. </li>
<li>To buy the iron condor back once it hits your loss threshold as determined by personal risk- this will happen with extreme movement. I customarily look at about 65% though depending on my size, I will choose 50% </li>
<li>To buy the iron condor back into the week before expiration, if all is going well and you have decided to hold the trade into closer to the end of expiration (I have had many a trade go sideways taking it down to the wire and not capturing gains, so I do not advise this). </li>

Prominent chipmakers, including Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) and GlobalFoundries Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GFS#NASDAQ">GFS</a>), have finalized agreements for substantial U.S. government grants and loans to support their manufacturing efforts, Bloomberg <a target="_blank" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-06/tsmc-globalfoundries-finish-talks-over-billions-in-chips-awards?utm_source=google&amp;utm_medium=bd&amp;cmpId=google&amp;sref=TBDibEcD" rel="noreferrer noopener">cites</a> familiar sources.
This milestone, confirmed by a recent notification from the U.S. Commerce Department to Congress, marks significant progress in implementing the 2022 bipartisan initiative to boost domestic semiconductor production.
Taiwan Semiconductor, which received an initial $6.6 billion in April for its Phoenix, Arizona semiconductor project, and GlobalFoundries, awarded $1.5 billion for its facilities in Malta, New York, and Burlington, Vermont, are among 21 recipients collectively receiving $37 billion in preliminary CHIPS Act funds, Reuters reports.

Some grant recipients fear potential setbacks after former President Donald Trump returns to office as Trump <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41780976/chip-stocks-like-nvidia-broadcom-taiwan-semi-gain-after-trump-win-whats-going-on" rel="noreferrer noopener">recently criticized the</a> CHIPS Act on the Joe Rogan podcast, calling it a "bad deal" that subsidizes wealthy corporations. He suggested high tariffs, rather than federal funding, as an alternative to encourage domestic chip production.
Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson also hinted that the GOP might consider repealing the CHIPS Act if they gain majority control. Although he later clarified his remarks, uncertainty lingers among companies awaiting final agreements.
Experts suggest that despite campaign remarks, President-elect Donald Trump is unlikely to repeal the Biden administration's CHIPS and Science Act.
Paul Triolo of Albright Stonebridge <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/11/07/trump-likely-to-uphold-chips-act-despite-his-campaign-rhetoric-experts-say.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">told</a> CNBC that, despite Trump's reservations, there is bipartisan support for advanced manufacturing in the U.S. Economist Adam Posen of the Peterson Institute for International Economics expects Trump may adjust the funding focus but will largely leave the act intact, akin to Biden's retention of Trump-era tariffs on China.
Posen predicts Trump will likely emphasize tariffs over industrial policy expansion if he chooses to adjust the act.

The contract chipmaker attributed the quarterly performance to robust smartphone and AI-related demand for its 3nm (which Needham's Charles Shi&nbsp;primarily attributed to Apple Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/aapl#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>)) and 5nm technologies.

Across the United States, renters are increasingly caught between a rock and a hard place as rent surges and wages barely budge. By the end of 2022, 50% of renter households were classified as "cost-burdened," spending over 30% of their income on housing and utilities, while 12.1 million households crossed a threshold most would find untenable, devoting more than half of their income to rent.&nbsp;

</ul>
The shortage of affordable housing compounds the issue, with the nation having lost over 2.1 million rental units priced under $600 since 2012. This situation has spurred a financial scramble, pushing many households to work extra hours or juggle multiple jobs to cover rent.
Recent reports paint a sobering picture: rent has surged 21% since 2001, yet renter incomes have risen by only 2% in the same period, leaving people grappling with affordability.
This discrepancy pressures people to stretch budgets in ways that leave little room for other expenses. Zillow's Kara Ng notes, "Generally, the more you spend on essentials like shelter, the less you spend on other things." For many, that means cutting corners and sacrificing everything from entertainment to savings.

A new analysis by Self Financial reveals that the typical renter works an average of 50 hours each month to pay rent. Fifty hours is roughly 30% of a full-time month based on a standard 40-hour workweek. In some locations, these numbers climb even higher.
In states like California and Florida, where average monthly rents reach $2,493 and $2,033 respectively, renters must log upward of 80-100 hours at median wage rates just to meet housing costs. Even in Texas, with a lower average rent of $1,720, it still takes 52.9 hours at $32.54 per hour to cover monthly rent.&nbsp;
This squeeze is driving a marked increase in housing instability. In 2023, homelessness rose to 653,100 people nationwide – a historic high, according to Harvard's Joint Center for Housing Studies, underscoring a rising tide of financial insecurity.

Although rent growth slowed in 2023 to a modest 0.4%, the market remains far from affordable. Median rents have risen by one-third since the pandemic began, with rents in nearly all major metropolitan areas showing year-over-year increases.&nbsp;
Meanwhile, the window of opportunity for affordable rentals continues to shrink: only one-third of renters now pay less than $1,000 per month, the lowest proportion on record, according to Redfin. Staying put may be wise for those who pay less than $1,000, as only 7.5% of available listings now fall below this price point.
On the bright side, some relief may be on the horizon. With an oversupply of new apartments in cities, especially in the Sun Belt, landlords are beginning to offer rental concessions. "We're catching a break on the rental market right now," says Redfin's Chen Zhao, optimistic that the country may gradually "chip away at the affordability issue."
