An American Airlines Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAL#NASDAQ">AAL</a>) flight was compelled to evacuate at Denver International Airport following an engine fire, which resulted in minor injuries to a dozen passengers.
What Happened: American Airlines Flight 1006, a Boeing 737-800 ferrying 172 passengers and six crew members, was diverted to Denver due to engine vibrations. Post landing, one of the engines ignited, leading to thick black smoke engulfing the air, according to a <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2025/03/13/us/american-airlines-fire-denver-airport/index.html">CNN</a> report on Friday. 
The&nbsp;Federal Aviation Administration&nbsp;(FAA) revealed that the crew had reported engine vibrations and the situation worsened after landing. The fire was finally put out&nbsp;and all passengers were safely evacuated,&nbsp;some using a slide. The Denver Fire Department confirmed that twelve passengers were hospitalized with minor injuries.
In a statement, American Airlines expressed gratitude to the crew members and DEN [Denver International Airport] team and commended first responders for their quick and decisive actions and is sending a replacement aircraft and crew to Denver to assist customers in continuing their journey to Dallas. The flight originated in Colorado Springs.

Why It Matters: This accident took place just three weeks after a flight of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43934320/should-passengers-accept-deltas-30000-no-strings-attached-compensation-offer-lawyers-weigh-in">Delta Air Lines </a>(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>) crashed and caught fire at Toronto Pearson International Airport, marking another event in a string of recent aviation mishaps.
In January, American Airlines Flight 5342 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/01/43343648/all-60-passengers-4-crew-members-onboard-american-airlines-jet-feared-dead-after-midair-collision-official-says">collided</a> with a U.S. Army Black Hawk Helicopter, killing all 64 passengers and crew members while landing at the Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport.
There has been a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44257044/whats-going-on-with-american-airlines-stock-today">recent downturn</a> in American Airlines&#8216; stock. The company&#8217;s shares traded lower following a revision in its first-quarter financial outlook. The revised guidance reflected weaker-than-expected revenue, largely attributed to challenges from Flight 5342 and a slump in the domestic leisure segment, particularly in March.
Price Action: AAL stock plunged over 33% during the past 12 months to close at $10.67 on Thursday, as per <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">BenzingaPro</a>

Ali Martinez, a prominent market analyst, recently tweeted about a potential price rebound for&nbsp;GameStop Corp.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GME#NYSE">GME</a>), citing&nbsp;a buy signal on the&nbsp;TD Sequential indicator.
What Happened: On Thursday, Martinez shared his observations on GameStop&#8217;s stock performance on X. He pointed out that the TD Sequential indicator, a tool used to predict trend reversals in stock prices, was showing a buy signal for the video game retailer. The stock also climbed 1.37% during the overnight trading session on Robinhood.

Since 2020, GameStop has been highly volatile as a meme stock, primarily fueled by retail investor enthusiasm on platforms like Reddit. Retail investors on Reddit's r/WallStreetBets sparked the 2021 GameStop "meme stock" frenzy through a short squeeze, significantly affecting hedge funds that had wagered against it. Although its fundamentals are weak, Martinez&#8217;s analysis indicates that traders may expect a price rebound after a period of decline.

Why It Matters: GameStop&#8217;s stock has been under pressure recently due to broader market concerns.&nbsp;The company&#8217;s shares <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/03/44234631/whats-going-on-with-gamestop-stock-monday-2">moved lower on Monday</a> amid recession worries and uncertainty regarding tariffs and trade policy. 
Earlier this month, President Donald Trump imposed significant tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico, and China, causing market instability. Despite these challenges, Martinez&#8217;s post suggests that GameStop may&nbsp;be setting up for a&nbsp;price rebound, offering a glimmer of hope for investors ahead of its fourth quarter results on March 25.
February reports about the addition of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) and other cryptocurrencies to GameStop&#8217;s balance sheet helped the stock surge. CEO Ryan Cohen&#8216;s meeting with Strategy (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) co-founder Michael Saylor also added to the speculation. Notably, Martinez in a previous post urged investors to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44320586/bitcoin-sees-potential-bullish-breakout-toward-91000">monitor the $74,000 </a>level of Bitcoin closely and indicated a &#8216;potential trend shift&#8217;.
Price Action: GameStop stock closed on Thursday at $21.95, marking a decline of 19% over the past 30 days, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
According to Benzinga Edge Ranking, GameStop outperforms SuperMicro Computer (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>) in momentum and growth but lags in value metrics.

Despite nearly a 50% drop since mid-December,&nbsp;Tesla Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) shares are still too expensive to attract seasoned investor Ross Gerber back into the fold.
What Happened: Ross Gerber, the president and CEO of Gerber Kawasaki Wealth &amp; Investment Management, in an <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/tesla-stock-price-crash-outlook-ross-gerber-elon-musk-tsla-2025-3">interview </a>with Business Insider, stated that he doesn&#8217;t see a clear path for Tesla&#8217;s stock to rebound this year, even after the significant losses.
The long-term Tesla investor maintains that Tesla&#8217;s stock is still overpriced and believes that for the stock to rebound, Tesla&#8217;s earnings need to increase. On Wednesday, Tesla&#8217;s shares were trading at a forward price-to-earnings ratio of 65, more than three times the valuation multiple of the S&amp;P 500. Gerber considers the stock to be overpriced at its current level, particularly as analysts have downgraded the company&#8217;s projected 2025 vehicle sales for the second consecutive year. &#8220;There&#8217;s this game that is happening now where the fundamental story has to be revalued,&#8221; stated Gerber.
The investor also criticized Musk&#8217;s controversial political actions, which he views as a lasting obstacle for the Tesla brand. Musk&#8217;s close association with President Donald Trump has reportedly led to a shift in the brand&#8217;s political alignment, with Tesla reportedly losing liberal support while gaining conservative buyers. 
The spike in people selling their EVs due to Musk&#8217;s political stance has caused a sharp decline in the value of used Tesla cars. In a satirical post on X on Thursday, Ross Gerber also questioned, &#8216;If a liberal sells their tesla to a conservative. How many new Teslas are sold?&#8217; 
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="592" height="169" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/14003503/image-108.png" alt="" class="wp-image-824241" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/14003503/image-108.png 592w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/14003503/image-108-300x86.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 592px) 100vw, 592px" /></figure>

Why It Matters: The recent decline in Tesla&#8217;s stock price and its overvaluation, as pointed out by Gerber, are significant in the context of Tesla&#8217;s shifting customer base and the political divide among its customers. Gerber had earlier predicted a 50% drop in Tesla&#8217;s stock this year due to CEO Elon Musk&#8216;s shift in focus to other projects. This prediction has been largely accurate, with Tesla&#8217;s stock falling an additional 31% since his comments in late February.
Gerber also highlighted the challenges Tesla faces in the used car market. He likened it to the &#8220;Apple (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) problem,&#8221; where the product&#8217;s high quality reduces the incentive for customers to upgrade frequently.
Furthermore, a recent analyst note by JPMorgan Chase on Wednesday stated that the company lost too much brand value too quickly. It also warned that the EV maker could see the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44295808/tesla-braces-for-lowest-quarterly-deliveries-since-2022-jpmorgan-predicts-a-brand-has-lost-so-much-value-so-quickly">lowest quarterly </a>deliveries since 2022.

Ross Gerber Finds Tesla Stock Expensive Despite Its 50% Plunge: Why The Investor Says EV Giant's 'Fundamental Story Has To Be Revalued'

As the S&amp;P 500 enters into a correction zone, leading economists weigh in on whether the U.S. economy is headed toward a recession amid an escalating trade war.
What Happened: Lawrence H. Summers, former U.S. Treasury Secretary, lambasted recent tariff policies, warning of potential recession risks and negative long-term consequences. In an interview with CNN on Thursday, Summers described these tariff policies as a &#8220;self-inflicted wound&#8221; that not only raises costs for businesses and consumers but also poses a threat to national security. He further stated that these policies are alienating allies while benefiting competitors in Asia and Europe.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Laura Coates Live - Tariffs &amp; Uncertainty: Former Treasury Secretary&#039;s Perspective" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/hqOeYy_dBgo?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</div>
</figure>
Summers also highlighted&nbsp;the economic uncertainty caused by&nbsp;these policies, stating that it&nbsp;discourages spending and investment, which&nbsp;could potentially slow growth. He&nbsp;dismissed the idea of damaging&nbsp;the economy to pressure the&nbsp;Federal Reserve into cutting interest&nbsp;rates as a flawed strategy.
He warned that the odds&nbsp;of a U.S. recession have&nbsp;risen from 10-15% to nearly&nbsp;50%, primarily due to policy shifts. Summers&nbsp;cautioned that arbitrary tariff increases&nbsp;and spending cuts could have&nbsp;long-term negative consequences.
Meanwhile, Mohamed El-Erian, called the speed of the correction &#8216;eye popping&#8217; in his post on X, following the S&amp;P 500&#8217;s 10% drop in three weeks. In his previous posts, he stated that he expects significant downward revisions to the U.S. 2025 growth projections from the IMF and Wall Street firms, ranging from 0.5 to a full percentage point, compared to the initial consensus forecast of 2.5% at the beginning of the year.

However, Justin Wolfers, Senior Fellow at Brookings Institute, still holds on to bits of optimism amid pessimism. He told CNN that a recession is &#8216;not inevitable,&#8217; while reasoning that President Donald Trump has inherited a strong U.S. economy and he hasn&#8217;t been at the helm long enough to change much of that.

However, he acknowledged that this time, instead of external factors, the chaotic economic policies from the White House are a cause for concern. Wolfers explained how these policies are leading businesses and consumers to pause spending, which &#8216;could&#8217; but &#8216;by no means necessarily&#8217; spark a recession.

Why It Matters: The comments from various economists come in the wake of escalating trade tensions.

The S&amp;P 500, as tracked by the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), closed at 5,521 points, marking a significant drop from its February 19 peak of 6,147.
