(Reuters) - A federal judge ordered Bank of America to pay $540.3 million in a long-running Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation lawsuit accusing the second-largest U.S. bank of underpaying what it owed for deposit insurance.
In a decision made public on Monday, U.S. District Judge Loren AliKhan in Washington, D.C., said the payment covers assessments from the second quarter of 2013 through the end of 2014, plus interest.
The FDIC sued Charlotte, North Carolina-based Bank of America for $1.12 billion in 2017, accusing it of reducing its deposit insurance contributions by failing to honor a 2011 rule that changed how banks report risk exposure to counterparties.
That rule was one of many federal reforms designed to ensure the stability of the banking system, and avert a repeat of the 2008 global financial crisis.
In a 59-page decision, AliKhan rejected Bank of America's claims that there was no reasonable basis for the rule, and that the FDIC acted arbitrarily and capriciously.
AliKhan said the FDIC was not required to develop a "perfect measure" of predicting banks' potential exposure to losses, and Bank of America could claim it "lacked fair notice of what was required of it."
She also said the FDIC waited too long to sue over claims predating the second quarter of 2013.
Bank of America strongly denied any intent to evade payments.
Bill Halldin, a Bank of America spokesperson, said in a statement: "We are pleased the judge has ruled and have reserves reflecting the decision."
The FDIC declined to comment.

The stock market has proven to be a valuable resource for building long-term wealth, but the gains often come to the most patient investors. Corrections and crashes have tested investors many times, and the tariffs are no different.
That's the key takeaway from Dave Ramsey's recent <a href="https://x.com/DaveRamsey/status/1909645855713329334">X post</a>. The financial guru and bestselling author suggests that people stop looking at the media headlines and stay the course.
"The only people who get hurt on a roller coaster are the ones who jump off in the middle. Stay in. Keep investing. You'll be just fine," Ramsey explained.&nbsp;

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Panic Creates Discounts&nbsp;</h2>
It's common for people to panic when their portfolios lose value, especially if the drops are steep. However, Ramsey views these dips as long-term buying opportunities for investors who can stomach the volatility.
"Wealth is built by staying steady. When the market dips, it's not time to panic – it's time to buy. It's on sale."
Any tweet from the president can send the markets significantly higher or lower in the short run. For instance, many stocks rebounded sharply when Trump announced a 90-day pause on most tariffs, with China being the notable exception.
However, the stock market is a weighing machine in the long run. Companies with good fundamentals and enticing long-term opportunities will continue to reward patient investors.&nbsp;
Trending: BlackRock is calling 2025 the year of alternative assets. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">One firm from NYC has quietly built a group of 60,000+ investors who have all joined in on an alt asset class previously exclusive to billionaires like Bezos and Gates.</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Market Is Up Over The Past 2 Years</h2>
Having a long-term perspective can help investors navigate short-term uncertainty and hold their shares. Ramsey mentions that the stock market is still up over the past two years.&nbsp;
This also isn't the first time tariffs have resulted in sharp but temporary losses. Trump also used tariffs in 2018 to collect revenue and gain leverage on other countries. The stock market didn't do well in 2018, but it rebounded in 2019.&nbsp;
The more you zoom out, the higher the long-term returns. It's a testament to how long-term investors are rewarded for their ability to hold shares during times of uncertainty.&nbsp;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tune Out The Headlines</h2>
Ramsey mentions that headlines are not as eager to report prosperity as they are to promote a temporary dip in the market. Pain sells and causes panic, but you don't have to let the headlines dictate your investments.
As an investor, you have to think long-term. It's important to think in terms of 30-40 years instead of 30-40 minutes. That's one of the key takeaways from Ramsey's video. He believes that all of the investors who bought this dip will be smiling about it a few years from now.&nbsp;
It's harder to stay steady when the stock market is down, and everyone is talking about doom and gloom. However, it pays to be a contrarian, and some investors generate big profits when market participants are afraid of what's to come.

Dave Ramsey Suggests Calm Investing Amid Tariffs: 'The Only People Who Get Hurt On A Roller Coaster Are The Ones Who Jump Off In The Middle'

The deadline to file federal tax returns is Tuesday, April 15, 2025, leaving only one day left for procrastinators to get it in on time. Here's what to know about last-minute filings, extensions and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44802211/5-small-businesses-hit-trump-with-lawsuit-over-tariffs-trade-deficits-are-not-an-emergency">payment requirements.&nbsp;</a>
Filing Before April 15: For those looking to file a federal tax return before Tuesday's deadline, the easiest way may be using the IRS Free File <a href="https://www.irs.gov/filing/irs-free-file-do-your-taxes-for-free">service</a> or another software such as Turbotax from Intuit, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTU#NASDAQ">INTU</a>) or H&amp;R Block, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HRB#NYSE">HRB</a>), which also offers in-person appointments, but could be difficult to get one at the last minute.

Filing An Extension: Taxpayers also have until 11:59 p.m. on Tuesday to file for an extension, which would push the filing deadline until Oct. 15, 2025. However, extensions do not extend the payment deadline — taxes owed must still be paid by April 15 to avoid penalties and interest.&nbsp;
Even with an extension, taxpayers must estimate and pay at least 90% of their tax liability by April 15 to minimize penalties. Possible penalties include:&nbsp;&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Late payment penalties of 0.5% monthly of unpaid taxes, up to 25%.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Late filing penalties of 5% monthly of unpaid taxes, up to 25%.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Interest accrues on unpaid tax balances until fully settled.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
Taxpayers who require an extension can file Form 4868 electronically via IRS Free File or make a payment through IRS Direct Pay and designate it as an extension. Military personnel, disaster-area residents and some overseas citizens may qualify for automatic extensions.&nbsp;

Abigail Disney, filmmaker, philanthropist, and granddaughter of Walt Disney Co. co-founder Roy O. Disney, isn't holding back when it comes to the world's wealthiest—and she's naming names.
In an interview published by <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/07/abigail-disney-every-billionaire-who-cant-live-on-999m-is-kind-of-a-sociopath">The Guardian</a> on April 7, she tore into billionaires who hoard wealth and dodge responsibility.&nbsp;
"I am of the belief that every billionaire who can't live on $999 million is kind of a sociopath," she said.&nbsp;

</ul>
Her point, she explained, is that once someone crosses the billion-dollar mark, the money starts making more money—so fast, it becomes "almost impossible to get rid of." She added, "It's a strange way to live when you have objectively more money than a person can spend."
Disney's frustration with extreme wealth isn't new—and it didn't come out of nowhere. In a 2020 TED Talk titled <a href="https://www.ted.com/talks/abigail_disney_dignity_isn_t_a_privilege_it_s_a_worker_s_right">"Dignity Isn't a Privilege, It's a Worker's Right,"</a> she described her reckoning with the system she inherited:
"My grandfather and great-uncle built something that was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/04/44721053/disney-cuts-prices-and-adds-perks-to-lure-families-back-to-orlando-parks">supposed to be magical</a>," she said. "But it only works if you consider the people who make the magic." She criticized executives who, in her words, "line their pockets while workers live in their cars," and added, "No one on Earth works harder than the people who are struggling just to get by." That contrast—between protected wealth and exploited labor—is what she says continues to define the system today. "The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/08/40471766/the-american-dream-is-a-sham-says-48-year-old-former-teacher-living-in-mexico-who-took-a-37-payc">American dream has become a nightmare</a> for the people who still believe in it," she said.
Trending: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-in-the-midwest-why-multifamily-real-estate-is-a-winning-strategy">This investment company boasts a 33.85% internal rate of return (IRR) for its realized projects, allowing accredited investors to earn passive returns and avoid the headaches of being a landlord.</a>
Now, in 2025, Disney hasn't dialed anything back. In The Guardian interview, she singled out Donald Trump and Elon Musk as prime examples of what happens when extreme wealth goes unchecked.&nbsp;
"We all laughed and said he was stupid," she said of Trump, "but obviously he's not. In the 19th century, he would have sold a lot of snake oil. He came along right at the correct moment. And he played his role brilliantly. You've got to give it to him."
As for Musk, Disney slammed him for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44484549/mark-cuban-on-doge-government-cuts-this-isnt-a-corporate-turnaround-this-is-the-united-states-of-america">cutting overseas aid</a>, including funding for Pepfar—the U.S. program credited with saving 25 million lives through HIV/AIDS relief.
"There are people suffering and dying today because of that cut," she said. "There are children who have HIV who shouldn't because of Elon Musk. Now. As we sit here and talk."
She didn't stop there. "That natural human proclivity to say, ‘Hmm, that doesn't feel right'—he doesn't have it. Trump doesn't have it," she said. "They're spending no time in shame, and shame is a righteous emotion. It's not an emotion you want to live in, but it's an emotion you want as a motivator sometimes. And where is it? Where's the shame?"

If They Could Show A Plan For Ending World Hunger He'd Donate $6 Billion – ‘I Will Sell Tesla Stock Right Now And Do It'</a>
<a href="https://youtu.be/U8pkTeEjQaI?si=8StFN-uXIYOYH2wr">Speaking at the Tax Justice And Solidarity event </a>earlier this year, she admitted she benefitted from "some quirks in the tax system, some good luck, and some very loving grandparents. But nothing else."
By her early 20s, Disney had already begun giving away portions of her inheritance. According to The Guardian, by 2021 she had donated roughly $70 million to causes including support for women in prison, women affected by HIV, and survivors of domestic violence.
Now a vocal member of the Patriotic Millionaires, she's been pushing for higher taxes on the ultra-rich and more accountability for those at the top—especially when their influence starts steering democracy.
"I spend a lot of time trying to think of reasons to be optimistic," she said, "because I don't know how to function without that. And I want to find the energy and the grit for a really long fight. This isn't just four years… there's a whole civilisation-level reset to be done."

'Where Is the Shame?' — Disney Heiress Calls Out Elon Musk and Trump, Says Billionaires Who Can't Live on $999 Million Are 'Kind of Sociopaths'

Golfer Rory McIlroy made history as one of only six golfers in the modern era to complete the Grand Slam, winning the four major championships. While McIlroy's win was good for the sport of golf and his legacy, it may prove to be a negative for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports-betting">sports betting companies.</a>
What Happened: McIlroy won his first ever Masters Tournament in a playoff with Justin Rose in the 2025 tournament, that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports-betting/24/04/38221203/tiger-woods-masters-record-will-legendary-golfer-make-the-cut-heres-what-benzinga-users-sa">unlike last year,</a> didn't feature the same fanfare with Tiger Woods not participating.
While viewership for media partners Walt Disney Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>) and Paramount Global (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARA#NASDAQ">PARA</a>)(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARAA#NASDAQ">PARAA</a>) may have been down in the first few days of the Masters on a year-over-year basis without Woods, the final Sunday round provided ups and downs for golf fans and bettors that could make this one of the most memorable Masters tournaments in years.
For McIlroy it now serves as the final piece needed to complete the career grand slam, winning the Masters, PGA Championship, U.S. Open and British Open. McIlroy previously finished second at the Masters in 2022 and had multiple top 10 finishes before his victory Sunday.
The victory didn&#8217;t come easy with McIlroy having multiple ups and downs Sunday and giving away his final round lead multiple times, as shown on the Kalshi prediction market odds below.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>

With the win, McIlroy now joins Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods as the only Grand Slam winners in golf.

Sportsbooks Suffer: Several sportsbooks may be on the hook for large payouts on McIlroy, who was among the most bet golfers to win the Masters at odds mostly in a range of +650 to +1,200 before the tournament began Thursday.
At William Hill, the British sportsbook had a Money Back offer for a Free Bet if McIlroy won. This turns into a seven-figure payout by the sportsbook for the promotion, according to the company.
"Masters Sunday 2025 will go down as one of the most dramatic we've ever seen, but also as one of the most significant in the history of betting on golf for William Hill," company spokesperson Lee Phelps said.
Phelps said McIlroy was the biggest liability for the sportsbook with tens of thousands of individual bets placed on the golfer to win the Masters.
At BetMGM, which is a joint venture between MGM Resorts International (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MGM#NYSE">MGM</a>) and Entain, McIlroy was one of the most bet golfers to win. BetMGM's John Ewing <a href="https://x.com/johnewing/status/1911433529612783814">said </a>19% of the money was on McIlroy to win the tournament ahead of the fourth round on Sunday.  
What's Next: While McIlroy has now completed the career grand slam, bettors look ready to wager on the 35-year-old winning more major tournaments going forward.
BetMGM <a href="https://x.com/johnewing/status/1911807911241957779">offers </a>betting on how many majors McIlroy will win in 2025, with the upcoming PGA Championship (May 15-18), U.S. Open (June 12-15) and British Open (July 17-20). The payouts are
<ul>
<li>1: -200</li>
<li>2: +188</li>
<li>3: +1,400</li>
<li>4: +8,000</li>
</ul>
No golfer has won all four majors in the same year in the modern era, with Woods coming close and winning three of the four in 2000 followed by a Masters win in 2001 for four consecutive major wins.
Bettors are also already backing McIlroy to win the 2026 Masters, according to <a href="https://x.com/johnewing/status/1911804138184225154">Ewing</a>. With odds of +1,200 at BetMGM, 59% of the money is on McIlroy to win back-to-back Masters tournaments.
Prediction market Kalshi also has <a href="https://kalshi.com/events?search=rory+mcilroy">betting odds</a> for the remaining three majors in 2025, where McIlroy is either the favorite or has the second-best odds behind Scottie Scheffler in each tournament as listed below:
<ul>
<li>U.S. Open: McIlroy 12%, Scheffler 15%</li>
<li>PGA Championship: McIlroy 17%, Scheffler 16%</li>
<li>British Open: McIlroy 13%, Scheffler 20%</li>

Following Bank of America Securities&#8217; recent notes amid tariff-induced volatility, it also published some key data on questions <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel" rel="noreferrer noopener">it regularly receives.</a>
International inbound travel makes up only ~5% of U.S. room nights and 3% of arrivals. However, international travelers stay longer, spend more, and are mostly leisure travelers.
The largest source market is Canada (40% of international room nights and 28% of arrivals), followed by Europe and Mexico.

Las Vegas has 10% international visitors, and ~15% of gaming revenue is high-end baccarat, some of which is Asia-sourced.
BofA Securities noted that international inbound did not fully recover post-pandemic, given flight capacity and the dollar.
International revenue is 20-40% for Lodging C-Corps, and China accounts for 5-9% of fees for Marriott International (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MAR#NASDAQ">MAR</a>), Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HLT#NYSE">HLT</a>), Hyatt Hotels Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/H#NYSE">H</a>), and Wyndham Hotels &amp; Resorts, Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WH#NYSE">WH</a>).
Other regions are evenly balanced across Europe, AsiaPac ex-China, Caribbean/LatAM and MidEast/Africa.
By far the most considerable China exposure in BofA Securities&#8217; coverage is Macau, which makes up 62%, 52%, and 20% of Las Vegas Sands Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LVS#NYSE">LVS</a>), Wynn Resorts (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WYNN#NASDAQ">WYNN</a>) and MGM Resorts International (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MGM#NYSE">MGM</a>) revenue, respectively, while China makes up another ~20% of Singapore for Las Vegas Sands.
The top question BofA Securities received last week concerns the exposure of Lodging C-Corp room development to China. BofA Securities estimates China makes up 37%, 26%, 22%, and 18% of pipelines for Hyatt Hotels, Hilton Worldwide, Wyndham Hotels, and Marriott International overall, but this could overstate exposure as pipelines understate conversions, and China under-indexes on RevPAR given lower occupancy and rates.
Direct tariff impacts for GL&amp;L should be low as supplies/inventories make up ~10-15% of hotel operating expenditure. Developers could see supply chain issues/price spikes across their budgets, but most dollars are international (Japan, Singapore, Macau).
Government makes up ~3% of room nights, and slightly more if contractors are included.
Government per diems are low, reducing the exposure of full-service hotels. Pre-pandemic business travel made up ~30% of overall U.S. travel spending but closer to 70% of revenue for BofA Securities&#8217; companies, which overweight higher chain scales and urban markets.
Business travel is less elastic than leisure travel, but it is diversified by industry. It accounts for only 2-3% of overall corporate operating expenditure and never fully recovered post-COVID.
Lodging C-Corps are now trading below historical averages, while Lodging REITs are at historical trough levels reached at/near the Global Financial Crisis and during COVID.
