What Happened: Initially previewed at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/05/38825276/google-io-2024-to-spotlight-ai-innovations-and-new-monetization-opportunities-analy">I/O 2024 in May</a>, the Gemini Utilities Extension is now being rolled out.
It replaces the Google Assistant fallback, enabling users to control alarms, timers, apps, media, and more. With Google's Clock app, Gemini supports conversational alarm and timer settings; third-party clock apps allow only basic settings.

Why It Matters: Google's generative AI platform, Gemini, is stepping up against key rivals like OpenAI's ChatGPT, Microsoft Corporation's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) Copilot, Anthropic's Claude, Meta Platform, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) LLaMA, and Cohere Inc.
Gemini has gained momentum through initiatives like the Gemini API Developer Competition. Its strengths include deep integration within the Google ecosystem.
However, since its launch, Gemini has also faced major challenges, with critics highlighting issues of biased responses and inaccurate image generation.
Last month, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41611263/alphabet-q3-earnings-highlights-revenue-beat-eps-beat-google-cloud-up-35-momentum-across-the-compan">Alphabet reported third-quarter revenue</a> of $88.27 billion, marking a 15% increase from the previous year and surpassing the Street consensus estimate of $86.31 billion,  according to data <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/?utm_source=BZprocontent102924&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">from Benzinga Pro.</a>
At the time, Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai announced that all seven Google platforms with over 2 billion users, including Google Maps, now run on Gemini models. Due to high demand, Gemini is also expanding to developers, starting with GitHub Copilot.

Google Gemini Rolls Out 'Utilities' Extension For Android: Here's What All You Can Do With It

Amazon.com, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) is reportedly contemplating its second multi-billion-dollar investment in&nbsp;artificial intelligence startup&nbsp;Anthropic, which leverages its cloud services for training.
What Happened: Following its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/24/09/41067395/amazons-partnership-with-jeff-bezos-backed-anthropic-gets-green-signal-from-uk-competition-watchdog">initial $4 billion investment</a> last year, the e-commerce giant is now planning investment&nbsp;in the startup co-founded by former OpenAI executives Dario and Daniela Amodei, <a href="https://www.theinformation.com/articles/amazon-discussing-new-multibillion-dollar-investment-in-anthropic">reported</a> The Information, citing a person familiar with the discussion.

After OpenAI And Perplexity, AI Startup Anthropic May Secure Another Massive Investment — Amazon Reportedly Considers Major Funding

The U.S. stock market closed at record highs Thursday after the Federal Reserve's widely expected decision to lower interest rates and Fed Chair Jerome Powell's press conference where he reassured markets by dismissing concerns about his potential resignation or removal following the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/11/41823887/powell-dismisses-talk-of-resignation-after-trump-victory-says-policy-is-still-res">election of Donald Trump. </a>
The S&amp;P 500 — as tracked by SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) — closed at 5,973 points, up 0.7% for the day.
Tech stocks outperformed the broader market, with the Nasdaq 100, tracked by the Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), surging 1.5% higher to an all-time high of 21,100 points.
Notably, the combined market capitalization of the Magnificent Seven — Microsoft Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NYSE">MSFT</a>), Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), Amazon Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) and Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) — soared to over $17 trillion, setting a new peak.
The Dow Jones stalled after Wednesday&#8217;s 3.6% rise, while small caps eased 0.4% following a 5.8% jump the previous day.
Top-performing sectors in the S&amp;P 500 were technology, up 1.8%, followed by communications services and consumer discretionary, both up by 1.3%. Financials, which rallied the most Wednesday, lagged on Thursday, down 1.5%.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Fed Cuts Rates, Powell Dismisses Concerns Over His Future </h3>
The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 0.25% to 4.5%-4.75% as expected, a reduction in the pace of easing after the larger 0.5% cut in September.
The Fed recognized robust economic momentum, with the GDP rising by 2.8% in the second quarter, and resilient consumer confidence.
Powell downplayed weak October employment data, noting that near-zero job growth was largely due to temporary factors like strikes and hurricanes rather than underlying economic weakness.
Powell described the rate cut as part of a "further recalibration" of monetary policy, which he emphasized remains "restrictive." He hinted at the possibility of more easing in the future but refrained from signaling a specific rate cut at the December meeting, stressing a data-dependent approach.
When asked if he would resign if requested by Trump, Powell responded firmly, "No," reiterating that the president does not have the legal authority to remove the Fed chair.
Following Powell's comments, market-implied expectations for a 25-basis-point rate cut in December surged to 75%, recovering from Wednesday's post-election dip.
Treasury yields pulled back sharply, with the 10-year yield dropping 10 basis points to 4.33%, almost erasing the spike from the previous day.
The U.S. dollar weakened 0.7%, while gold prices, as tracked by the SPDR Gold Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>), rebounded 1.8% after Wednesday&#8217;s 3% slump. 
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) traded up by 1% at 4:30 p.m. in New York, hitting a record-high of $76,990 during the session.

Market Whales and Their Recent Bets on GOOGL Options

Good Morning Traders! In today&#39;s Market Clubhouse Morning Memo, we will discuss SPY, QQQ, AAPL, MSFT, NVDA, GOOGL, META, and TSLA.
Our proprietary formula, exclusive to Market Clubhouse, dictates these price levels. This dynamic equation takes into account price, volume, and options flow. These levels are updated every day and shared with all Clubhouse Members, prior to the opening of the market.
We recommend closely monitoring these stocks, and be prepared to leverage potential breakouts or reversals. As always, stay alert and ready to adjust your tactics based on the market&#39;s pulse to optimize your trading gains. Now, let&#39;s dive into the stock analysis:
<h3>SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust </h3>
SPY (ARCA: SPY) is trading near our crucial support area of 593.59. For bullish action, we&#39;d like to see the price establish support at this level and push higher to test 596.57. If 596.57 holds and buying momentum continues, a move toward the next target of 600.51 is likely. Should buyers defend 600.51, a further rally could reach 604.45. Our optimistic bull target for SPY today is set at 609.33.
In contrast, if SPY cannot sustain above 593.59, we expect sellers to challenge 589.71. Should the bears strengthen here, they may drive the price down to 587.31. Breaking 587.31 with volume could see SPY reaching for the stronger support at 585.37. A particularly bearish session might push the price down to our low target of 583.18.
<h3>Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1</h3>
The QQQ (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/qqq#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) is positioned around the critical level of 506.68. For bullish progression, we&rsquo;d like to see buyers step in at 506.68 and support this price level, potentially leading to a test of 509.87. If buyers solidify their stance, QQQ could target 513.64 next. An upward move sustained by demand might extend toward 516.58. Our high bull target on the day for QQQ is 519.87.
Conversely, if 506.68 does not hold, the bears might push the price toward 504.44. If selling pressure intensifies, QQQ could see a further drop to 502.65. A breakdown here might lead the price to test 501.07. If bears remain in control, the low target on the day is set at 499.44.
<h3>Apple Inc. </h3>
Apple&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/aapl#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) is trading near our level of 222.96. Bulls will aim to defend this area, looking for an initial move up to 223.87. Should buying interest continue, we expect the price to reach 225.31. If Apple maintains strength throughout the session, a further advance could target the high bull level of 226.08.
On the other hand, if 222.96 does not hold as support, sellers could drive the price to test 222.24. A successful test here may lead to a drop toward 221.66. Persistent selling pressure could bring 220.97 into play, with the ultimate downside target for bears at 220.29.
<h3>Microsoft Corp. </h3>
Microsoft&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/msft#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) is currently auctioning around 420.26. For a bullish outlook, we&#39;d like to see this level hold and a push toward 421.62, which should act as strong support if buyers are committed. A breakout above this level may see Microsoft aiming for 422.84. Further positive momentum could bring the price to the high bull target of 423.81.
Should 420.26 fail to act as a firm support, the bears are likely to probe down to 419.17. If selling increases, this could lead to a test of 417.25, with sustained pressure possibly driving the price down to 416.32. A weak session could result in a test of the low bear target at 414.56.
<h3>NVIDIA Corporation</h3>
NVIDIA&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nvda#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) is trading around our pivot level of 145.61. Bulls should aim to lift the price to 147.06, which would act as support if buying strength continues. An advance from here might see the price testing 148.52. Continued buying strength could lead NVIDIA up to 150.32, with a high bull target on the day of 153.23.
If NVIDIA loses 145.61 as support, we anticipate a drop to 144.21. If bears sustain pressure here, a move down toward 142.35 may follow. Persistent selling could push the price to 141.21, and with extended bearish action, NVIDIA could test our low bear target at 140.28.
<h3>Alphabet Inc Class A</h3>
Alphabet (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/googl#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>)is auctioning near 172.28, where bulls would want to establish support. If buyers hold this level, a move to 174.01 could follow. Continued upward action might push the stock toward 175.12, the high bull target for the day.
Should 172.28 fail to hold, we expect a test lower at 171.14. If sellers maintain control, the next support is at 169.34. In a strong sell-off, our low target for Alphabet would be 167.04.
<h3>Meta Platforms Inc </h3>
Meta&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/meta#NASDAQ">META</a>) trades around 573.25, where bulls are likely to attempt holding the level for an advance. A steady buying interest could lift the price to 580.17, which should act as a support level if demand is sustained. A further push could test 585.73, with continued strength potentially reaching the high bull target at 598.17.
Conversely, if 573.25 fails, we might see bears exerting pressure to test 565.53. Persistent selling could drive the price lower to 559.29. If bears dominate, the low bear target for Meta today is set at 553.05.
<h3>Tesla Inc. </h3>
Tesla&nbsp;(NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tsla#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is trading around the support area of 286.34. Bulls will want to push the price up to 288.80, establishing this as a new floor. If buying is robust, the price may advance to 290.47, with the potential to test 293.21 on a strong day. Tesla&rsquo;s high bull target for today stands at 294.60.
If 286.34 fails to hold, sellers might press for a decline to 283.95. Further selling pressure could bring 281.32 into play. Should this level be breached, the bears&rsquo; low target of the day would be 279.43.
Final Word: Today&rsquo;s session could see substantial volatility, influenced by critical data releases and the Federal Reserve&rsquo;s rate decision. The day starts with the Initial and Continuing Jobless Claims at 8:30 AM ET, setting the tone with labor market insights. Shortly after, the Wholesale Trade Sales data at 10 AM ET will provide further economic context. The FOMC Interest Rate Decision at 2 PM ET is the focal point of the day, with markets keen to see the Fed&rsquo;s stance, with the majority of analysts expecting a 25 basis point cut. This anticipation will peak with Fed Chair Jerome Powell&rsquo;s press conference at 2:30 PM ET, where his statements on inflation, growth, and policy outlook will likely impact market sentiment.
Given today&rsquo;s schedule, expect potential sharp moves in both directions. Volatility will likely intensify around each data release, especially during the FOMC announcements. Traders should prepare for rapid price swings and adapt their strategies to capitalize on momentum shifts. This session is expected to be pivotal, with strong impacts on market sentiment and trading opportunities. Manage risk wisely, and approach the market with patience and discipline for a successful trading day. Good luck!

But for savvy investors, the 52-week high isn&#8217;t a ceiling so much as a signal of momentum and investor confidence.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Microsoft Stock: Potential For New Heights On The Horizon</h2>
Microsoft's price of $420.18 leaves it with 11.46% potential to reach its 52-week high of $468.35 – a milestone that could still reflect the stock&#8217;s upward momentum rather than a cap. The tech giant's diversified growth in cloud, AI, and gaming, combined with its strong fundamentals, sets it apart from some peers that may have been more volatile or reliant on single catalysts. 
Investors eyeing Microsoft are likely attracted to its solid positioning, which could make it a contender not just for revisiting, but possibly surpassing its past high.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tesla, Nvidia, Amazon: Approaching Familiar Peaks</h2>
Tesla, Nvidia, and Amazon, on the other hand, find themselves tantalizingly close to their 52-week highs. Tesla, at $288.53, is just 0.37% shy of its previous peak, and Nvidia sits similarly close, with only 0.6% to reach its $146.49 high. 
While these milestones could hint at strong underlying sentiment, they don't limit the potential for further gains if market conditions, earnings, or tech advancements push them higher.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why The 52-Week High Is Only A Marker – Not The Limit</h2>
For investors, the 52-week high is a way to gauge how close a stock is to a recent peak – and how attainable that price might be. But it's far from a ceiling; instead, it reflects a level that has been reached before and could well be surpassed in the right environment. 
With Microsoft holding the most room among the Magnificent Seven to revisit its high, the stock may signal investors that there's a steady growth trajectory ahead.
Meanwhile, those teetering near their highs may still have gas left in the tank, even if the next leg up requires new catalysts to drive them higher.

Microsoft Shows Room To Climb As Tesla, Nvidia, Amazon Near 52-Week Highs

The 2024 U.S. presidential election was one of the biggest events of the year, and it showed in the record-breaking livestream <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41780976/chip-stocks-like-nvidia-broadcom-taiwan-semi-gain-after-trump-win-whats-going-on">viewership across platforms on election day</a>.
What Happened: Streams Charts reported that live streams covering the election generated nearly 84 million hours of watch time &#8211; almost five times more than the viewership for the September debates between Vice President Kamala Harris and President-Elect Donald Trump. 
The dominant platform for election coverage was Alphabet Inc.-owned (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) YouTube, which accounted for over 80% of total watch time across all broadcasts. Rumble Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RUM#NASDAQ">RUM</a>) came in second with 13.1% of viewership.
Peak viewership for political streams on election day hit over 9.14 million viewers, with the average number of viewers approaching 3.5 million. Audience engagement spiked closer to the end of voting and the announcement of results.
While the debates lasted just a few hours, some election day broadcasts ran non-stop from the start of voting until the results were announced.
The most-watched broadcast was Fox Corp.-owned (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FOX#NASDAQ">FOX</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FOXA#NASDAQ">FOXA</a>) Fox News on YouTube, which peaked at over 1.14 million viewers &#8211; a historic record for the channel. Comcast Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMCSA#NASDAQ">CMCSA</a>) subsidiary NBC News came in second with nearly 616,900 peak viewers.

Why It Matters: All the top broadcasts were on YouTube, as the platform remains the primary choice for TV networks to stream their content online.
Among individual streamers, commentators Dan Bongino and Steven Crowder on Rumble drew the largest audiences, both setting new personal viewership records. 
Streamer HasanAbi, on Amazon.com Inc.-owned (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) Twitch, also marked a historic peak of about 313,400 concurrent viewers on his Election Day coverage.
Throughout the election campaign, Trump consistently outpaced Harris in mentions on Twitch, holding around a 70% share compared to Harris&#8217; 30%. This trend continued on election day, with Trump&#8217;s mentions jumping to 104K versus Harris&#8217; 41.6K.

YouTube Trumps Rivals In Election Day Coverage With 80% Viewership Share In Streaming

In the wake of the recent U.S. presidential election, Jim Cramer has connected the surge in the stock market to the election of President-elect Donald Trump and his anticipated pro-business policies.
What Happened: Cramer noted that the conclusion of the election brought relief to traders who are now gearing up for a Trump administration, CNBC <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/11/06/jim-cramer-ascribes-rally-to-end-of-election-and-potential-trump-policies.html">reported</a> on Thursday.
"The fact that we already know the winner is a huge win for the stock market in itself, which makes it a magnet for new money. This election, with its vicious maelstrom of hate and fear, is finally over,&#8221; he said.
Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) saw a remarkable rally, closing up 14.75%. Cramer pointed out that Elon Musk, a vocal Trump supporter, might benefit from Trump&#8217;s tendency to reward allies. Tech giants like Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) and Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), previously burdened by antitrust issues, also saw gains. Cramer mentioned that cybersecurity stocks surged amid expectations of increased hacking under Trump&#8217;s presidency.

Cramer acknowledged the market&#8217;s record highs during the Joe Biden administration and speculated on future market movements with Trump, who has a keen interest in Wall Street. 
"Who knows how high they can go with a president-elect who always told me that the Dow Jones Industrial Average was his version of the Nielsen ratings."
Why It Matters: The market rally following Trump&#8217;s election victory reflects a shift in investor sentiment. The Dow Jones index jumped over 1,500 points,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/11/41797148/dow-jumps-over-1-500-points-to-a-new-high-after-trump-win-investor-sentiment-improves-fear-greed-in"> reaching a record high</a>. The CNN Money Fear and Greed index moved to a &#8220;Neutral&#8221; zone, indicating improved market sentiment. 
The anticipation of favorable tax policies under Trump&#8217;s administration has further fueled the rally. Additionally, a look back at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/11/41783357/how-did-s-p-500-sectors-perform-during-trumps-first-term-could-this-time-be-different">Trump&#8217;s first term </a>provides insights into how various S&amp;P 500 sectors might perform under his leadership. While past performance doesn&#8217;t guarantee future results, it offers valuable clues for investors navigating the new administration.
Price Action: According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>, SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) closed 2.49% higher on Wednesday while at the time of writing, both Dow Jones Futures and S&amp;P 500 Futures were trading 0.15% higer.

Jim Cramer Calls Trump's Return To White House A 'Huge Win For The Stock Market'

Following President-elect Donald Trump&#8217;s victory, top tech executives have congratulated him and expressed their willingness to work with his administration.
What Happened: On Wednesday, Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), SpaceX, and Neuralink CEO Elon Musk, a key ally to Trump during his campaign, unsurprisingly congratulated the President-elect.
Trump has previously spoken about <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/11/41704205/elon-musk-says-we-can-cut-2-trillion-out-of-the-harris-biden-budget-and-that-americans-money-is-bein">creating a position for Tesla CEO</a> in a &#8220;department of government efficiency&#8221; to reduce the federal workforce.
Following the victory, Tesla shares surged over 14%, with investors hopeful that a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/41766869/trump-win-biggest-positive-for-elon-musks-tesla-tech-bull-says-it-could-boost-ev-gi">Trump presidency would benefit</a> the company.

Zuckerberg also took to Threads, and acknowledged Trump&#8217;s &#8220;decisive victory.&#8221; He also expressed optimism about future opportunities.
Earlier in September, Trump said Zuckerberg told him during a call after the July assassination attempt that he will <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40785288/did-mark-zuckerberg-really-say-no-way-i-can-vote-for-a-democrat-in-this-election-to-trump">not vote for a Democrat</a> in this election. However, a Meta spokesperson denied this, stating that Zuckerberg has not endorsed either Trump or Kamala Harris.

On the other hand, LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman, a prominent supporter of Vice President Harris' campaign, while acknowledging Trump&#8217;s win, urged Americans to unite.
&#8220;I—and many others—raised alarms about the anti-democratic actions Donald Trump took during his first Presidency, and has promised to take this next time,&#8221; he said in a post on X, adding that Trump's supporters assured him that such behavior wouldn't continue.

Why It Matters: Previously, it was reported that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/41755274/trump-win-could-hinder-tech-ev-sector-growth-slow-the-pace-of-ai-revolution-analyst">technology investors are concerned</a> that Trump&#8217;s presidency could lead to higher tariffs, straining U.S.-China relations and disrupting the tech supply chain.
Companies like Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), Apple, and Tesla may face retaliation from China. Analysts also fear that the President-elect&#8217;s administration could slow the AI revolution.
GOP sweep of the White House and Congress could boost the stock market but negatively impact Big Tech, the analysts have stated.
Trump&#8217;s presidency could also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41781921/what-does-trumps-victory-mean-for-ev-giant-tesla-and-the-big-3-automakers">hurt the broader EV market</a> due to the loss of tax incentives. However, Tesla's size and position could provide an edge, as higher tariffs could limit competition from Chinese companies like BYD and Nio.
During Trump's first term, many tech leaders openly opposed him, resigning from advisory councils and challenging his policies.
However, they faced consequences, including Amazon's claim that it lost a $10 billion Pentagon contract due to Trump's alleged personal vendetta against Bezos, <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/06/technology/trump-musk-ai-crypto.html">reported</a> the New York Times.
This time, tech leaders are taking a different approach. Some, like Zuckerberg, who Trump threatened to put in jail, began aligning with the President-elect before the election. Former critics, including Bezos, have refrained from public criticism, the report noted.

Tim Cook, Mark Zuckerberg, And Jeff Bezos Congratulate Trump: What's Next For The Tech Giants?

Chinese artificial intelligence (AI) companies, including tech giants Alibaba Group Holding (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) and ByteDance, are investing heavily in advertising to gain a foothold in the competitive AI market.
In the third quarter alone, these companies spent over 500 million yuan ($70.2 million) on promotional campaigns for various AI applications, SCMP <a target="_blank" href="https://www.scmp.com/tech/big-tech/article/3285132/chinese-ai-firms-are-splurging-ads-report-finds-chatbot-market-gets-crowded" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.
Among the big spenders, Alibaba allocated nearly 200 million yuan to promote Quark, a cloud storage and online search platform enhanced with generative AI features.

Spending on its ChatGPT-like service, Tongyi Qianwen, was notably lower at 4.5 million yuan. A Tongyi Qianwen spokesperson disputed this figure, SCMP says.
The significant marketing budgets have sparked concerns within China about the sustainability of such high spending.
Chinese AI startup Moonshot AI, backed by Alibaba and Tencent Holdings (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TCEHY#OTC">TCEHY</a>), is among the top ad spenders, with approximately 150 million yuan devoted to promoting its chatbot.
The company's substantial ad budget reflects the increasingly crowded AI market, where hundreds of chatbots are vying for user attention. However, a source close to Moonshot told the SCMP that AppGrowing's data on the company's ad spending is exaggerated.
Yan Junjie, CEO of Shanghai-based AI firm MiniMax, highlighted a fundamental difference in strategy between Chinese and U.S. AI companies.
While American companies rely on product capabilities to attract users, Chinese companies heavily invest in online marketing to differentiate their offerings.
Chinese tech giants Alibaba, Tencent, and Baidu Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIDU#NASDAQ">BIDU</a>) spent $7 billion on AI-focused infrastructure and processors in the first half of this year, a significant rise from last year.
Despite increased spending, China's AI capital investments lag behind U.S. firms like Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), Amazon.Com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), and Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), which <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40550305/nvidia-tech-fuels-chinese-ai-growth-overseas-alibaba-ramps-up-7b-investment" rel="noreferrer noopener">spent $106 billion</a>. Wedbush analyst Dan Ives <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41151741/nvidias-ai-leadership-to-drive-1-trillion-market-growth-with-accenture-partnership-" rel="noreferrer noopener">projected $1 trillion</a> in AI capital spending by U.S. tech giants, with Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) a key beneficiary.
Price Action: BABA stock traded lower by 2.93% at $96.31 at the last check on Wednesday.

Alongside online ads, Google services houses sales stemming from Google's subscription services (YouTube TV, YouTube Music among others), platforms (sales and in-app purchases on Play Store), and devices (Chromebooks, Pixel smartphones, and smart home products such as Chromecast). Google's cloud computing platform, or GCP, accounts for roughly 10% of Alphabet's revenue with the firm's investments in up-and-coming technologies such as self-driving cars (Waymo), health (Verily), and internet access (Google Fiber) making up the rest.

In addition to their assessments, some analysts extend their insights by offering predictions for key metrics such as earnings, revenue, and growth estimates.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">S&amp;P 500 Sector Performance During Trump's First Term (November 2016- November 2020)</h1>
Although Trump wasn't sworn in as president until January 2017, financial markets began reacting to his potential policies immediately after his election.
Trump's first term, which spanned from Nov. 8, 2016 — the day he won against Hillary Clinton — to Nov. 3, 2020 – when he lost versus Joe Biden — brought varied performances across S&amp;P 500 sectors.
Technology and consumer discretionary sectors led the rally, while energy was the clear laggard, with the only negative return among sectors over those four years.
Tech stocks were buoyed by the spectacular rise of Magnificent Seven giants. An equally weighted basket of Microsoft Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NYSE">MSFT</a>), Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) and Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) delivered a remarkable 380% return from November 2016 to November 2020. That return is nearly double the performance of the Magnificent Seven during Biden&#8217;s term.

Regarding the energy sector's poor performance, that wasn't solely a result of the COVID-19 pandemic-driven oil price collapse.
Despite Trump's pro-fossil-fuel policies, energy stocks faced persistent headwinds throughout his term, even before 2020, with the global shift toward renewables putting continuous pressure on traditional oil and gas investments. 
Surprisingly to many, solar stocks — tracked by the Invesco Solar ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TAN#NYSE">TAN</a>) — were among the top-performing industries during Trump's first presidency, soaring by an impressive 267% between November 2016 and November 2020.
Below is a table and chart showing the performance of S&amp;P 500 sectors under Trump&#8217;s first term.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Financials Were Early Winners In Trump's First Term</h1>
In the first three months following Trump's 2016 election, financials stocks saw significant gains. 
The Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLF) rose by 17.2% between Nov. 8, 2016, and Jan. 10, 2017, outpacing all other sectors. The rally was driven by anticipation of deregulation and tax cuts, which boosted investor confidence in banks and other financial stocks.
Conversely, consumer staples and utilities — traditionally defensive sectors — were the weakest performers in that initial period, with losses of 2.39% and 2.3%, respectively.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Market Reaction To Trump's 2024 Victory: Financials And Industrials Lead Again</h1>
On November 6, 2024, the day after Trump's re-election was confirmed, market activity showed a familiar pattern with financials and industrials posting the strongest gains. 
Financials climbed by 5.6%, followed by energy and industrial, each more than 3.5%, suggesting renewed optimism for deregulation and potential infrastructure investment as investors previously had in the first three months following his election in 2016.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">What Could Be Similar — And What Might Change — in Trump's Second Term?</h1>
Trump's return to the White House could bring back some familiar market dynamics, but the economic and geopolitical landscape in 2024 is notably different from 2016. 
Investors should be prepared for a mix of potential tailwinds and headwinds that may shape sector performance in unique ways.
Trump's expected emphasis on tax cuts, deregulation and support for traditional energy sources could once again boost sectors like financials, industrials and consumer discretionary. Financial stocks, in particular, might benefit from any renewed push to ease regulatory restrictions, while industrials could get a lift from a possible infrastructure spending package.
As in his first term, Trump's focus on "America First" policies could support domestic manufacturing and sectors tied to infrastructure, including industrials and materials.
Trump's pro-fossil-fuel stance could give the energy sector some breathing room. Traditional energy companies may benefit if there's a shift in focus back toward oil and gas, though this will depend on global energy market dynamics.
Global trade dynamics have shifted significantly since Trump's first term, with ongoing tensions between the U.S. and China.
If Trump reintroduces tariffs on Chinese imports, it could impact tech and industrials sectors, which rely on international supply chains and components.
Last but not least, even if Trump policies seem to prioritize fossil fuels, the private sector&#8217;s commitment to renewables could still drive growth in solar and clean energy stocks.

Chip Stocks Like Nvidia, Broadcom, Taiwan Semi Gain After Trump Win - What's Going On?

Donald Trump has been elected as the 47th president of the United States, defeating his Democratic opponent Kamala Harris. Here&#8217;s a look at where Trump stands on issues surrounding the technology sector and some of the biggest <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41768178/donald-trump-defeats-kamala-harris-to-win-2024-election">companies on Wall Street.</a>

Companies like Apple, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) which produces most of its products in China, could be heavily impacted by higher tariffs and may pass those costs onto the consumer as a result.

Chips: The semiconductor industry could be highly effected by Trump&#8217;s potential tariff policies. The Biden administration hiked tariffs on semiconductors<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41383055/china-launches-probe-into-intel-cites-national-security-risks-amid-trade-tensions-with-us"> imported from China</a> with the rate set to increase to 50% by 2025. It is likely Trump will maintain this policy and perhaps hike the tariffs even higher. 
The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/05/38650086/intel-micron-among-winners-in-bidens-280b-chips-act-for-semiconductor-advancement">outgoing administration enacted the</a> CHIPS and Science Act to provide funding for American research, manufacturing and workforce development aimed at boosting domestic semiconductor production. Trump has been highly critical of the CHIPS and Science Act and has suggested that implementing high tariffs would drive chip manufacturers to invest their own resources in establishing production facilities inside the U.S. 
Investors and chipmakers will be watching to see if Trump will attempt to claw back funds promised under the CHIPS Act or dismantle or reduce the program.
Trump has also been a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/10/41604100/trump-goes-after-taiwan-semiconductor-on-joe-rogan-podcast">vocal critic</a> of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Ltd.'s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) planned investments in the US, particularly its $40 billion project in Arizona.

Trump has also committed to rolling back Biden&#8217;s executive order on AI regulation, which some conservatives view as government overreach.

Trump's Big Tech Policies: What GOP Victory Means For Apple, Google, Microsoft

Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) has cautioned investors about the uncertain profitability of future products as the tech giant pivots towards emerging markets, including artificial intelligence and virtual reality.
With a new addition to its annual report&#8217;s &#8220;risk factors,&#8221; Apple warned that some upcoming offerings might not match the revenue and profit margins of the flagship iPhone line, the Financial Times <a target="_blank" href="https://www.ft.com/content/e30eb646-a7ad-496e-8fa4-ff1b4445e853" rel="noreferrer noopener">reports</a>.
Apple also flagged potential challenges from &#8220;geopolitical tensions&#8221; in its latest filing, alongside safety risks tied to AI integrations.

These concerns coincide with Apple&#8217;s push to keep pace with competitors like Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google and Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) in the AI sector, where it has recently launched new &#8220;Apple Intelligence&#8221; features and expects to integrate ChatGPT into Siri.
Amid regulatory scrutiny, Apple faces pressure over its high-margin services, including the App Store, as recent U.S. antitrust actions threaten licensing revenue from deals with Google.
This shift in focus comes as Apple broadens its product lineup to sustain revenue. Its Vision Pro headset, a &#8220;spatial computing&#8221; device priced at $3,499, marks the company&#8217;s latest attempt at diversifying its hardware portfolio, though sales remain modest.
Meanwhile, the company&#8217;s services business, contributing a gross margin of over 70%, has helped bolster profitability and offset slowing iPhone growth.
Apple&#8217;s gross margin, which hovered around 33% when the iPhone launched in 2007, has risen to over 40% as demand for high-end models increases.
BofA Securities analyst Wamsi Mohan projected a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/41722824/apples-services-and-silicon-strategy-to-fuel-margins-justify-high-valuation-analyst" rel="noreferrer noopener">robust iPhone upgrade</a> cycle in 2025 and 2026, fueled by demand for Gen AI capabilities, increasing Services revenue, higher margins from Apple&#8217;s in-house silicon, continued capital returns, and expanded AI-driven institutional interest.
Mohan expects minimal impact from the EU Digital Markets Act on Apple&#8217;s App Store performance.
Needham&#8217;s Laura Martin&nbsp;estimates <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41005053/apple-iphone-to-fuel-96-of-2025-revenue-analyst-says-a-safer-bet-than-ai-heavy-amazon-alphabet-micro" rel="noreferrer noopener">iPhone sales to</a> account for 89%-96% of Apple&#8217;s 2025 revenue.
Apple stock has gained over 20% year-to-date.

Apple Signals Profit Risks in AI and VR Shift: What It Means for Investors?

Tech bull and prominent analyst Dan Ives is optimistic about the impact of a potential Donald Trump win on the Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) stock, as the former president stands <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41766547/trump-gives-victory-speech-in-florida-as-winning-pennsylvania-puts-him-at-brink-of-victory-vows-to-f">three electoral votes away from securing the presidency</a>.
What Happened: Ives, an analyst at Wedbush Securities, suggests Tesla could see substantial gains under a potential Trump administration, despite broader challenges for the electric vehicle industry.
&#8220;The biggest positive from a Trump win would be for Tesla/Musk,&#8221; Ives wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter. &#8220;We believe a Trump win is a negative for the EV industry as the EV rebates/tax incentives get pulled, however for Tesla a huge positive for scale/price advantage.&#8221;
Ives projects a potential $40-$50 boost to Tesla&#8217;s stock price under a Trump presidency, citing the company&#8217;s established market position and manufacturing scale. Based on the current Tesla stock price, this presents an upside of nearly 16% to 20%.

Trump Win 'Biggest Positive' For Elon Musk's Tesla, Tech Bull Says It Could Boost EV Giant's Stock By This Much

AI startup&nbsp;Perplexity, backed by Amazon.com, Inc. founder&nbsp;Jeff Bezos, is set to triple its valuation in its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41420230/jeff-bezos-backed-perplexity-aims-for-8b-valuation-in-new-funding-round-ai-fueled-google-challen">fourth funding round</a>&nbsp;this year.
What Happened: Perplexity is finalizing a funding round that would see its valuation skyrocket to $9 billion, an increase from its valuation of&nbsp;$520 million at the start&nbsp;of the year.
The AI-powered search company plans to raise $500 million,&nbsp;with Institutional Venture Partners leading the round, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/ai-startup-perplexity-to-triple-valuation-to-9-billion-in-new-funding-round-f2fb8c2c?mod=hp_lead_pos5">reported</a> the Wall Street Journal, citing people familiar with the matter.
The funding comes amid increased competition from ChatGPT-parent OpenAI and Alphbaet Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Google, both of which have introduced AI-powered <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41087674/openais-searchgpt-set-to-disrupt-googles-search-empire-as-former-engineer-sounds-alarm-on-deteriorat">features in their search engines</a>.
Last month, OpenAI secured more than $6.5 billion in new funding&nbsp;at a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41149788/openai-valuation-soars-to-157b-in-latest-funding-round">valuation of $157&nbsp;billion</a>.

Why It Matters: In April 2024, Perplexity became a unicorn after a funding round that more than <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38398735/jeff-bezos-backed-perplexity-ai-is-now-a-unicorn-after-latest-fundraise-softbanks-masayoshi-son-nvid">doubled its valuation to over $1 billion</a>. By August, the startup&#8217;s revenue and usage had grown <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entrepreneurship/24/08/40292703/perplexity-ais-revenue-usage-skyrocket-as-it-enters-into-advertising">700% since the start of the year</a>.
Last month, Perplexity <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41399723/jeff-bezos-backed-perplexity-ai-aims-to-break-google-and-metas-duopoly-with-new-internal-knowledge-s">introduced new features</a> aimed at improving user experience and breaking the duopoly of Google and Meta Platforms in the search and advertising industry.
However, the AI startup, which provides answers to&nbsp;questions by searching the web, has also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41442679/rupert-murdochs-dow-jones-new-york-post-sue-jeff-bezos-backed-perplexity-for-copyright-infringement">faced criticism from&nbsp;news</a> companies for using their&nbsp;reporting without fair compensation.
