Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives has raised the price target for CrowdStrike Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWD#NASDAQ">CRWD</a>) to $575, signaling robust optimism about the cybersecurity leader's trajectory.
What Happened: The announcement, shared via an X post, highlights a projected 16% upside for the stock over the next year from its current level.
This is underpinned by Ives' assessment of recent checks, "coming in very strong with healthy momentum." This bullish forecast arrives as the cybersecurity sector faces heightened demand amid escalating global cyber threats.

Wedbush&#8217;s price target of $575 exceeds the current average analyst target of $477.76, by 15.9% derived from 40 analysts<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CRWD/analyst-ratings"> tracked by Benzinga</a>. 
These targets range from $371 to $575, and three recent ratings imply a downside of 14.62% for CrowdStrike.

Why It Matters: A Texas-based cybersecurity pioneer since 2011, CrowdStrike&#8217;s premier product, the Falcon platform, delivers cloud-based protection for endpoints, cloud workloads, and identities.
Ives reiterates his optimism in the company's resilience and growth potential, particularly as it navigates a dynamic threat landscape.
During its first quarter earnings call, George Kurtz, the founder and CEO of CrowdStrike said, &#8220;Our conviction in net new ARR re-acceleration and margin expansion in the second half of fiscal year 2026 is reinforced by Falcon Flex deal momentum and early Falcon Flex expansions, strong competitive win rates and robust pipeline for the second half of fiscal year 2026.&#8221;

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) rival Xiaomi Corp. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XIACY#OTC">XIACY</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XIACF#OTC">XIACF</a>) is exploring options to sell its vehicles overseas.
What Happened: Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun shared the company's plans during a livestream, Reuters reported on Thursday.
Xiaomi is currently focused on domestic deliveries of the SU7 sedan and the YU7 SUV, both of which are all-electric models, according to the CEO.
The report suggests that the Chinese tech giant had earlier shared plans for delivering the first shipments of its vehicles in 2027.
It's unclear whether the company plans to expand into markets within Asia or follow the footsteps of other Chinese companies like BYD Co. Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDF#OTC">BYDDF</a>) and Nio Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NIO#NYSE">NIO</a>) to expand into Europe.
Why It Matters: Xiaomi's YU7 SUV exceeded expectations as the EV received almost <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/25/06/46132552/telsla-model-y-rival-xiaomi-yu7-suv-receives-nearly-300000-orders-in-1-hour-in-china">300k orders in under an hour</a>. The SUV is pitted against the Tesla Model Y in the Chinese domestic market.
Xiaomi is another automaker currently battling in the fiercely competitive Chinese market, currently embroiled in an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/06/45715047/byds-aggressive-pricing-triggers-ev-rat-race-stock-tumbles-authorities-voice-concern">EV price war</a>, which has raised concerns among authorities within the CCP.
On the other hand, Tesla has experienced a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46239731/elon-musks-tesla-sales-surge-3-7-in-china-as-other-markets-cool">rebound in sales</a> in the Chinese market as the company delivered over 61,000 vehicles during the month of June, sales data suggests.

Kevin O&#8217;Leary, the renowned investor and TV personality, criticized the spending habits of Gen Z, calling them potentially detrimental to their future financial security.
What Happened: O&#8217;Leary, also known as &#8220;Mr. Wonderful&#8221; on the show &#8220;Shark Tank,&#8221; highlighted the financial implications of small, habitual expenses. He urged Gen Z to be mindful of their spending and not outspend what they earn. On The Diary of a CEO podcast, he criticized the trend of young people earning $70,000 a year spending $28 on lunch.
He suggested that their preference for high-priced lunches and day-to-day luxuries could be hindering significant wealth accumulation in the long run.

O&#8217;Leary expressed his annoyance, stating, &#8220;I can't stand when I see kids making $70,000 a year spending $28 for lunch. I mean, that's just stupid.&#8221; He proposed that such money could be more wisely invested in an index fund, potentially yielding an 8% to 10% annual return for the next 50 years.
The Shark Tank star&#8217;s message highlighted the potential long-term effects of small, habitual expenses on wealth accumulation opportunities.

Why It Matters: This is not the first time O&#8217;Leary has spoken out about the impact of small daily expenses. Previously, he highlighted the danger of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/06/46067665/the-real-budget-killer-isnt-big-purchases-its-the-20-here-20-there-habits-that-quietly-empty-your-account">small, frequent </a>expenses, such as takeout or souvenirs, which can quietly drain a person&#8217;s finances. O&#8217;Leary&#8217;s recent comments echo his previous warnings about the long-term financial impact of seemingly insignificant daily expenses.
Despite criticism, O&#8217;Leary has remained steadfast in his stance. In 2024, when he advised people to stop wasting money on daily expenses like coffee and sandwiches, he drew <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/06/39360372/kevin-oleary-urges-stop-wasting-money-on-5-50-coffee-ramit-sethi-calls-him-out-its-not-the-f-g-c">immediate backlash</a> from personal finance experts like Ramit Sethi. 
However, O&#8217;Leary has continued to advocate for financial prudence, emphasizing the potential long-term benefits of cutting back on daily luxuries.

Kevin O'Leary Slams Gen Z's $28 Habit That Could Cost Them A Huge Sum 50 Years Later: 'Can't Stand When I See Kids Making $70,000 A Year Spending...'

General Dynamics Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GD#NYSE">GD</a>) announced on Wednesday that its subsidiary General Dynamics Electric Boat has secured a $1.85 billion contract adjustment from the U.S. Department of Defense to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/07/n46222439/general-dynamics-electric-boat-awarded-1-85-billion-contract-modification-for-long-lead-time-mater" rel="noreferrer noopener">bolster submarine production efforts</a>.
This contract modification, revealed in the Pentagon&#8217;s June 26 announcement, will fund long-lead materials and initial construction activities for Virginia-class submarines.
The funding will support the purchase of essential components requiring extended manufacturing timelines.

These parts are critical for ensuring steady production output and helping the Navy maintain its underwater fleet capabilities.
The move reflects the Pentagon&#8217;s effort to signal a long-term commitment to submarine production and to support suppliers in scaling operations accordingly.
&#8220;This contract modification allows for the acquisition of critical material and components for Virginia-class submarines that require substantial lead time to manufacture and deliver. It sends a continued demand signal, supporting supplier investment in the capacity and materials needed to achieve our required production volume,&#8221; said Mark Rayha, president of General Dynamics Electric Boat.
He added, &#8220;Consistent funding and support such as this contract modification is essential for the shipyards to achieve the high-rate production of submarines the Navy needs.&#8221;
