Citigroup Maintains Buy on Payoneer Global, Lowers Price Target to $10

Benchmark analyst Fawne Jiang lowered the price forecast for Baidu, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIDU#NASDAQ">BIDU</a>) from $130 to $120 while keeping a price <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BIDU/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">forecast of a Buy rating</a>.
On Wednesday, the company reported fiscal first-quarter revenue of $4.47 billion, up 3% year over year, topping the analyst consensus <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45542202/china-based-baidu-burns-1-2-billion-to-fuel-ai-cloud-growth" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">estimate of $4.30 billion</a>. 
Adjusted earnings per ADS&nbsp;of $2.55 beat the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">analyst consensus estimate</a>&nbsp;of $1.96.
The analyst writes that Baidu's first quarter results were strong, and AI Cloud was a standout, growing 42% year over year and delivering margins that outperformed key peers.
Jiang writes that, despite some expected variability tied to project-based revenue, the solid performance has led them to raise the full-year cloud forecast to 25% (from 20% prior), with room for further upside.

Also, generative AI (GenAI) search is gaining traction faster than anticipated, adds the analyst.
Jiang views management&#8217;s target of over 50% of search queries to be powered by GenAI by mid-year as both a strategic and responsive shift.
Baidu's GenAI-driven search represents a significant departure from traditional models, with promising long-term potential, says the analyst.
Given ongoing uncertainty around monetization timing and effectiveness, the analyst revised the FY25 core advertising revenue forecast to -8% year-over-year (from flat) and adjusted the EPS estimates.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via&nbsp;MicroSectors FANG ETNs due January 8, 2038 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FNGS#NYSE">FNGS</a>) and Invesco Golden Dragon China ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PGJ#NASDAQ">PGJ</a>).
Price Action: BIDU shares are down 1.23% at $84.43&nbsp;at the last check on Thursday.

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/03/44217932/crypto-exchange-kraken-sets-sights-on-2025-initial-public-offering">Cryptocurrency exchange Kraken</a> is preparing to roll out tokenized versions of major U.S. stocks like Apple (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), Tesla, and Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) for users outside the United States.
What Happened: The offering will allow non-U.S. investors to buy and trade digital tokens that mirror the value of U.S. equities, operating round the clock, even when traditional markets are closed, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/finance/currencies/kraken-crypto-exchange-stock-tokens-e4fc1bb9">according</a> to The Wall Street Journal.
The initiative, expected to launch within weeks, will be available to customers across Europe, Latin America, Asia, and Africa. U.S.-based users, however, will not have access to the tokenized stock trading feature.
Branded as "xStocks," these tokens will represent more than 50 equities and exchange-traded funds (ETFs), including the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF (SPY) and SPDR Gold Shares. 
Kraken plans to issue these tokens on the Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>), which supports fast and low-cost transaction processing.
Each xStock will be backed 1:1 by the underlying stock or ETF, held and managed by Kraken's partner, Backed Finance. 
The tokens will be redeemable for the equivalent cash value of the underlying securities, maintaining parity with market prices.
Arjun Sethi, Kraken's co-CEO, said the move aims to reduce barriers for global investors.

"Accessing U.S. stocks from abroad often means high fees and long settlement times," Sethi said. "There's a lot of friction."
xStocks are expected to be transferable beyond Kraken's platform, with users potentially able to store them in private crypto wallets or use them as collateral in decentralized finance (DeFi) applications.
Why It Matters: This isn't the first time tokenized stocks have been introduced.
Binance briefly offered tokenized equity products in 2021 before regulatory scrutiny forced a shutdown. 
Kraken says it is taking a different approach, working closely with regulators in each jurisdiction to stay compliant.
The move comes as industry interest in asset tokenization rises. 
The SEC recently hosted a roundtable on the subject, and major firms like BlackRock (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BLK#NYSE">BLK</a>) and Robinhood (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>) have expressed support for blockchain-based securities trading.

'Tinder CEO Steps Down in Latest Shakeup at Match Group' - Bloomberg News

Needham analyst Mike Matson upgraded Inogen, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INGN#NASDAQ">INGN</a>) from Hold to Buy, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/INGN/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">with a price forecast of $12</a>.
On May 7, the company<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/b45265755/inogen-announces-first-quarter-2025-financial-results" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> reported its first-quarter results.</a>
Total revenue in the quarter was $82.3 million, an increase of 5.5% from the prior-year period, or 7.1% at constant currency rates, due to higher demand from international and domestic business-to-business customers.
Matson highlighted the turnaround efforts led by the company&#8217;s new management team, which remains underappreciated by the market.

The company has returned to mid-single-digit revenue growth, with expectations for further acceleration in the second half of 2025 and into 2026.
Matson also notes improvements in margin performance and highlights management&#8217;s strategy to expand Inogen&#8217;s focus beyond its core offerings into a more diversified respiratory device portfolio, which introduces multiple new avenues for growth.
He added that management anticipates nearing adjusted EBITDA breakeven in 2025, which he views as a positive indicator of progress.
Matson writes that the decline in Inogen&#8217;s direct-to-consumer sales has primarily stemmed from a smaller DTC sales force.
The analyst also projects margins to improve further as direct-to-consumer sales stabilize or return to growth, especially after the impact of the sales force reduction is fully reflected in the fourth quarter of 2025.
Price Action: INGN shares are trading higher by 14% to $6.795 at last check Thursday.

<li>Some 76% of Chime's revenue still comes from interchange fees despite efforts to diversify.</li>
<li>With $518 million in 2024 marketing spend, Chime doubles down on Gen Z growth ahead of IPO.</li>
</ul>
Digital banking disruptor Chime has filed for an IPO, positioning itself as the first major fintech to test public markets after a period of market uncertainty, particularly influenced by President Donald Trump&#8216;s recent tariff policies.&nbsp;
The San Francisco-based neobank reported $518.7 million in revenue and $12.9 million in net income for the first quarter of 2025, a 32% year-over-year increase, according to its <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1795586/000162828025025059/chimefinancialinc-sx1wq1da.htm">registration statement filed</a> last week with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. While profit dipped slightly from the previous quarter, the company's operational momentum and 8.6 million active members underscore its readiness to go public.&nbsp;

<li>‘Scrolling To UBI' — Deloitte's #1 fastest-growing software company allows users to earn money on their phones. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2">You can invest today for just $0.30/share with a $1000 minimum.</a></li>
</ul>
The IPO, underwritten by Morgan Stanley (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MS#NYSE">MS</a>), Goldman Sachs (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GS#NYSE">GS</a>), and JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>), could value the company between $20 billion and $25 billion, based on projections in the filing.
The timing is strategic. Chime's IPO comes just weeks after trading platform eToro's successful public debut. Founded in 2012, Chime has raised $2.65 billion from blue-chip investors including SoftBank, General Atlantic, and Tiger Global — a war chest that helped it capture 18 million account holders. Chime's appeal to digital-native, mobile-first users makes its move particularly bold, as it targets a segment that has historically been underserved by traditional banks yet increasingly drives financial innovation.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Youth Movement Meets Market Volatility</h2>
According to registration statement, Chime posted $2.1 billion in revenue in 2024 — a 38% increase from the prior year — while narrowing its net loss from $203 million to $25 million. Other metrics also point to strong engagement: 78% of users log in daily, and 43% use its early paycheck access feature.
Trending: Maker of the $60,000 foldable home has 3 factory buildings, 600+ houses built, and big plans to solve housing — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/boxabl-scaling-fast-from-spacex-orders-to-600-homes-built-this-60k-foldable-home-may-be-the-future-of-housing">this is your last chance to become an investor for $0.80 per share.</a>
But risks loom. While the company hasn&#8217;t disclosed share count or pricing, analysts note Chime's continued dependence on interchange fees — 76% of total revenue in 2024, down from 80% two years earlier — could expose it to regulatory shifts, Forbes reported. Its young user base also maintains lower average balances than traditional bank customers, according to the SEC filing. The company, which plans to list on the Nasdaq under ticker symbol CHYM, is aiming to go public later this year.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Tariff Wildcard</h2>
The IPO landscape showed tentative signs of revival in March, when AI infrastructure firm CoreWeave Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWV#NASDAQ">CRWV</a>)'s <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/content/45335117/investing-in-coreweave-key-insights-on-the-nvidia-backed-ai-ipo">successful debut</a> broke a prolonged tech listing drought. That momentum stalled abruptly in April, as <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/04/44878334/trumps-tariffs-just-slammed-the-ipo-window-shut-for-fintech">Trump's renewed tariff threats</a> on Chinese imports rattled markets. Klarna, StubHub, and initially even Chime, postponed their offerings, according to media reports. Now, Chime's decision to proceed positions it as a test case for whether fintechs can navigate the current geopolitical climate to access public markets. The move comes just weeks after eToro's well-received listing, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-05-14/trading-platform-etoro-surges-42-after-620-million-upsized-ipo">Bloomberg</a> reported, suggesting cautious optimism may be returning to the sector.
Market observers will be watching how the IPO&#8217;s structure takes shape in the coming weeks, especially given the involvement of bulge-bracket underwriters. As the first fintech to test Wall Street's appetite in this new era of trade tensions, Chime's performance could set the tone for a wave of public offerings — or reinforce investor caution.
