As the market grapples with uncertainties amid the ongoing policy disruption and tariff battle, Jurrien Timmer, director of global macro at Fidelity Investments, suggests that a simple look at the S&amp;P 500 chart offers a compelling answer for those pondering their next move: &#8220;long.&#8221;
What Happened: In a recent X post accompanied by a 10-year S&amp;P 500 index chart, Timmer presented a straightforward yet insightful perspective. He posed the question, &#8220;At times of uncertainty, I find it useful to pull up a simple chart of the S&amp;P 500 and ask myself: do I want to be long or short this chart?&#8221;
His conclusion, drawn from the technical patterns displayed, leans firmly toward establishing or adding to &#8220;long&#8221; positions.
The chart, tracking the weekly performance of the S&amp;P 500 and its 200-day moving average, highlights a consistent rising uptrend line that has provided a general floor for the market over the years. Notably, Timmer points out the recent market action, where the index swung from a position significantly above this trendline to one considerably below it.
According to the data presented, the S&amp;P 500 appears to have gravitated back to this long-term uptrend line. This convergence, according to Timmer, &#8220;suggests that the market has found its balance.&#8221;
Timmer&#8217;s analysis hinges on core technical analysis principles. The rising uptrend line typically indicates sustained buying interest and a general positive trajectory for the asset. A temporary dip below this line can often be interpreted as an oversold condition, presenting a potential buying opportunity as the market seeks to revert to its established trend.

Why It Matters: Despite Timmer&#8217;s personal views based on his analysis, investors could potentially consider having &#8220;long&#8221; positions; however, the decision to be &#8220;long&#8221; or &#8220;short&#8221; rests with each individual investor.
After Wednesday, the S&amp;P 500 index was out of the correction zone, just down 8.34% from its record high of 6,147.43 points, scaled on Feb. 19. Dow Jones was 8.78% lower than its 52-week high of 45,073.63 points, and Nasdaq 100 was 10.6% lower than its previous high of 22,222.61 points.

S&P 500 Chart Indicates Adding 'Long' Positions As Expert Says 'Market Has Found Its Balance'

The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has refused Tesla Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) attempt to trademark the term "Robotaxi."
What Happened: The USPTO issued a ‘Nonfinal Office Action' notice to Elon Musk's company on Tuesday, a filing by the agency revealed.
The agency said that it refused to grant the trademark as the term is "Merely Descriptive." Another trademark for Tesla's ride-hailing service is still under review.
"Registration is refused because the applied-for mark merely describes a feature, ingredient, characteristic, purpose, function, intended audience of the applicant's goods and/or services," the filing stated.
The agency also said that the term &#8220;Robotaxi&#8221; is used generically by autonomous ride-sharing companies. However, USPTO stated that Tesla can provide evidence to support its trademark claim.
These can include "Fact sheets, instruction manuals, brochures, advertisements and pertinent screenshots of applicant's website as it relates to the goods and/or services in the application, including any materials using the terms in the applied-for mark."
Additionally, the agency also halted Tesla's Cybercab trademark. "Registration of the applied-for mark is refused because of a likelihood of confusion," with other similar trademark applications, the agency said.
Why It Matters: The decision comes as Musk and Tesla are gearing up to launch the company's Robotaxi service next month in Austin, Texas. Musk reiterated at the company's recent Q1 Earnings Call that Tesla would <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/44943387/elon-musk-shares-fsd-update-at-tesla-earnings-call-10-to-20-model-ys-will-offer-paid-robotaxi-rides-in-june">deploy 10 to 20 Model Ys </a>on Robotaxi launch day.
The EV giant has also begun operating its robotaxi services in a limited rollout for employees, and has completed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/04/44972108/tesla-quietly-launched-robotaxi-service-for-employees-before-june-debut-now-reports-1500-completed-trips">more than 1,500 trips </a>in Austin as well as the San Francisco Bay Area.
Elsewhere, the autonomous taxi segment is steadily growing in the U.S. as ride-hailing giant Uber Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) recently<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45162888/uber-heats-up-robotaxi-battle-against-tesla-waymo-with-may-mobility-deal"> announced a partnership </a>with May Mobility to operate thousands of robotaxis on its platform.

Elon Musk's Cybercab Ambitions Face Latest Snag: Tesla's 'Robotaxi' Trademark Filing Refused

U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance has highlighted the importance of unity between the U.S. and Europe, marking a significant shift from his previous stance.
What Happened:&nbsp;Vance made these comments at&nbsp;the Munich Leaders Meeting in&nbsp;Washington on Wednesday. &#8220;I&nbsp;do still very much think&nbsp;the US and Europe are&nbsp;on the same team,&#8221; stated Vance, as reported by the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.scmp.com/news/world/europe/article/3309470/striking-softer-tone-vance-says-us-and-europe-same-team">South China Morning Post</a>. &nbsp;His comments stood in stark contrast to his February speech at a security forum in Munich, where he drew criticism in Europe for attacking EU policies on immigration and free speech.
In his latest address, Vance stressed the deep-rooted connections between&nbsp;Europe and the United States. He dismissed the notion of a significant divide between the two and said &#8220;..it's completely ridiculous to think that you're ever going to be able to drive a firm wedge between the United States and Europe."

Why It Matters: Vance&#8217;s change in tone comes amid a series of events that have strained US-Europe relations. In April, the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/eurozone/25/04/44695371/eu-online-crackdown-may-fuel-more-tensions-with-trump-officials">EU&#8217;s crackdown</a> on online speech&nbsp;led to potential tensions with the Trump administration. Later that month, concerns arose that&nbsp;China might exploit <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44892820/xi-jinping-could-woo-europe-with-a-potential-china-deal-to-undercut-trumps-tariff-strategy-expert-warns">strained US-EU relations</a>&nbsp;to its advantage in trade negotiations.
Earlier this week, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45193766/france-and-eu-lure-us-researchers-with-nearly-567-million-incentives-amid-trumps-academic-funding-cuts">France and the EU offered incentives</a> worth millions to attract U.S. researchers in response to academic funding cuts in the U.S.
Vance&#8217;s recent remarks may be seen as an attempt to mend fences and strengthen ties between the US and Europe amid these challenges. Also, European Trade Commissioner Maros Sefcovic stated on Wednesday that the European Union's executive arm will provide more details on its proposed countermeasures to President Donald Trump&#8216;s tariffs in an update scheduled for Thursday.

Earnings Scheduled For May 8, 2025

A post on X by a long-time Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) bull has sparked a conversation on growth, strategy, and consolidation in the EV space.
What Happened: On Wednesday, prominent Tesla bull and fund manager Ross Gerber shared a post on X, suggesting that the EV giant acquire its rival Rivian Automotive Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>).

&#8220;Maybe, at some point, it just makes sense for Tesla to buy Rivian,&#8221; Gerber wrote in a brief, ambiguous post. While he didn't elaborate on what that point might be, the comment quickly sparked debate on X, with users weighing in on both the strategic logic and potential pitfalls of such a move.

When a user commented that it doesn&#8217;t make any sense, since &#8220;Rivian has nothing proprietary that Tesla needs,&#8221; Gerber responded bluntly, saying that they have &#8220;a truck people will buy&#8230;&#8221; Taking a shot at the Tesla Cybertruck, which is currently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45216453/tesla-has-over-10000-units-of-unsold-cybertrucks-in-its-us-inventory-amid-poor-sales-report">grappling with poor sales</a> as inventory continues to pile up.

Others, including fund manager Richard Todaro, have voiced concerns about Rivian's reliability. &#8220;I like the look of their SUVS, but Rivian SUVs have low reliability,&#8221; Todaro says, citing the company&#8217;s low score of 14 out of 100 in the Consumer Reports&#8217; 2024 survey, flagging recurring battery and electrical issues.

Price Action: Tesla shares were up 0.32% on Tuesday, and Rivian was down by 5.78% following the company&#8217;s first-quarter earnings release.

Tesla Bull Ross Gerber Floats Rivian Acquisition Idea: 'Just Makes Sense'

Market giants 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 Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) saw their stocks tumble on Wednesday after reports suggested Apple may be reconsidering its lucrative search partnership with Google, with artificial intelligence emerging as the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/05/45269527/apple-shares-fall-amid-broader-tech-shifts-and-supplier-developments-whats-going-on">catalyst for potential industry disruption</a>.
What Happened: Apple&#8217;s Senior Vice President of Services, Eddy Cue, testified in a U.S. antitrust trial that the company is &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/05/45259675/apple-alphabet-shares-tumble-amid-potential-ai-search-shift">actively looking at</a>&#8221; integrating an AI-powered search engine into Safari, evaluating alternatives from OpenAI, Anthropic and Perplexity AI. 
Cue revealed Safari searches declined for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/05/45269527/apple-shares-fall-amid-broader-tech-shifts-and-supplier-developments-whats-going-on">the first time last month</a>, attributing the shift to growing AI tool adoption. Alphabet shares plunged 7.51% to $152.80 while Apple dipped 1.14% to $196.25.
&#8220;AI is eating search,&#8221; stated Perplexity AI CEO Aravind Srinivas on X, as his company positions itself as a contender in the evolving search landscape.

Dan Niles, founder of Niles Investment Management, highlighted on X that the drop in Safari search activity aligns with Google&#8217;s recent performance, where year-over-year growth in paid clicks slowed to 2% in the first quarter of 2025—down from 5% in the same period last year and 8% in early 2023, following the rise of ChatGPT in late 2022.

Why It Matters: A recent 9to5Mac comparison showed Perplexity &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45246509/google-rival-perplexity-outshines-apples-siri-and-openais-chatgpt-in-ios-voice-assistant-showdown-says-aravind-srinivas">clearly outperformed or is at parity</a>&#8221; with Apple&#8217;s Siri and OpenAI&#8217;s ChatGPT across most categories, according to Srinivas, emerging as the most versatile option by combining web-based intelligence with limited Apple app integration.
Niles predicted that companies like &#8220;OpenAI, Anthropic, Perplexity, xAI&#8221; will continue taking market share from traditional search, with &#8220;AI agents&#8221; accelerating this trend.
Despite these shifts, Cue indicated Google should <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/05/45269527/apple-shares-fall-amid-broader-tech-shifts-and-supplier-developments-whats-going-on">remain Safari&#8217;s default search engine</a> for now, particularly given the estimated $20 billion in annual revenue Apple receives from the arrangement.
Perplexity, backed by Jeff Bezos and NVIDIA Corp.

Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) will reportedly hike the sticker prices of some of the company's vehicles produced in Mexico.
What Happened: Prices of Ford models like the Mustang Mach-E, Bronco Sport, as well as the Maverick pickup truck, could see a price hike of up to $2,000, Reuters reported on Wednesday.
The report suggests that the hike would apply to models produced after May 2, which, according to a Ford spokesperson in the report, could arrive at dealerships in June. The spokesperson also outlined that these hikes are a part of the company's usual pricing actions.
However, they reiterated that customers won't have to bear the full brunt of the tariffs currently casting uncertainty over the auto industry. "We have not passed on the full cost of tariffs to our customers," the spokesperson said.
Why It Matters: Ford shared at the company's Q1 earnings call with investors that the company expects Donald Trump's auto tariffs to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/05/45217767/ford-ceo-jim-farley-says-trumps-tariffs-could-cost-ford-1-5-billion-pulls-its-earnings-guidance">cost over $1.5 billion</a> to the company. The company also pulled its earnings guidance.
However, Ford CEO Jim Farley recently shared that the Detroit-based automaker will extend the employee price program for all of its customers through July as the company saw <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45160044/jim-farley-says-ford-sales-grew-16-in-april-ahead-of-earnings-call-customers-have-really-responded-to-our">a 16% surge in sales</a> during April.
Elsewhere, the Trump administration has announced it will <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45059191/donald-trump-will-reduce-impact-on-us-auto-industry-by-alleviating-some-auto-tarrifs-report">alleviate some duties</a> levied on auto companies and prevent ‘stacking' of tariffs, in a move that could give automakers in the U.S. some relief.

Ford Hikes Prices Of Select Mexico-Produced Vehicles Amid Auto Tariff Uncertainty: Report

OpenAI has appointed Instacart CEO Fidji Simo to the newly created role of CEO of Applications, reporting directly to Sam Altman as the artificial intelligence powerhouse restructures its leadership to prepare for future AI advancements.
What Happened: Altman announced the appointment on his X account on Wednesday, stating he will remain CEO of OpenAI but plans to increase &#8220;focus on research, compute and safety&#8221; which he described as &#8220;critical as we approach superintelligence.&#8221; 
The leadership change comes as OpenAI continues rapid expansion following its ChatGPT success, with Altman expressing confidence that Simo will help scale the company &#8220;10x (or 100x, let&#8217;s see).&#8221;

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Simo confirmed in her own X post that she will remain Instacart CEO &#8220;for the next few months&#8221; before transitioning to chair of the board. She expressed excitement about &#8220;contributing to its mission&#8221; at OpenAI, calling it &#8220;one of the most important and ambitious endeavors in history.&#8221; 
Neither executive specified which applications would fall under Simo&#8217;s purview or when she would officially begin her new role.

Chunghwa Telecom (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHT#NYSE">CHT</a>) reported quarterly earnings of $0.38 per share. This is a 1.79 percent decrease over earnings of $0.39 per share from the same period last year. The company reported $1.70 billion in sales this quarter. This is a 2.92 percent decrease over sales of $1.75 billion the same period last year.

ARM Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARM#NASDAQ">ARM</a>) executives reassured investors that the company&#8217;s business model protects it from direct tariff impacts amid growing U.S.-China trade tensions, according to its fourth quarter of 2025 earnings call.
What Happened: &#8220;We don&#8217;t have direct impact on tariffs since tariffs today are really applied to end products and are not applied to services, which is what we&#8217;re providing,&#8221; said Jason Child, ARM&#8217;s CFO.
The British chip design firm r<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45268429/arm-holdings-stock-plunges-after-q4-results-heres-why">eported record fourth quarter revenue</a> of $1.24 billion, with full-year revenue topping $4 billion for the first time. ARM saw licensing revenue surge 50% year-over-year to $634 million, while royalty revenue grew 18% to $607 million.
Despite strong performance, ARM declined to provide full-year guidance, citing macroeconomic uncertainties including potential indirect tariff effects. The company estimates 10-20% of its royalty revenue stems from shipments into the U.S., creating some exposure to demand fluctuations.
&#8220;If it&#8217;s a 10% or 20% impact on demand, then it could be a couple percent impact on royalties probably at most,&#8221; Child explained.

Why It Matters: ARM projects first quarter revenue between $1-1.1 billion, representing 12% year-over-year growth, with royalty growth accelerating to 25-30%. The company continues benefiting from AI demand, with CEO Rene Haas emphasizing, &#8220;AI is changing everything, and you can&#8217;t run AI without ARM.&#8221;
ARM&#8217;s growing adoption in data centers remains a key growth driver, with Haas stating: &#8220;We expect up to 50% of new server chips at hyperscalers to be ARM-based this year.&#8221;
Price Action: Arm Holdings PLC&#8217;s stock closed at $124.19 on Wednesday, up 1.43% for the day. In after-hours trading, the stock dropped sharply by 11.63% to $109.75. Year to date, Arm&#8217;s stock is down 3.13%, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Commodity futures aren't just for grizzled traders anymore. In today's market, they're where macro meets momentum especially when global politics, tariffs, and inflation start shaking hands in a very messy, very expensive way.
If you&#8217;re new to the the futures industry, commodity futures are standardized contracts to buy or sell a specific amount of a raw material (like gold, oil, or corn) at a predetermined price and date. They're used to hedge risk or speculate on price movements. In short, you're speculating on whether the stuff that makes the world go round is going up or down.
What moves them? A lot. Supply shocks, demand surges, weather patterns, OPEC meetings, Fed rate decisions, war, peace, and every awkward handshake between world leaders.&nbsp;
With all that in mind, here are the top 5 commodity futures, in my opinion, you should have your eyes on right now. These aren't just the usual suspects, they're the contracts riding the biggest waves of global tension, volatility, and opportunity.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">1. Crude Oil (WTI)&nbsp;</h2>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-buy-oil-futures">Oil futures</a> are never boring, but lately, they've been extra dramatic. Between ongoing tensions in the Middle East, surprise OPEC production cuts, and the recent tariff chess match between the U.S. and China, WTI crude is doing its usual thing: overreacting.
Supply remains tight, demand is seesawing thanks to global economic uncertainty, and traders are flipping bullish and bearish faster than a caffeinated day trader on earnings season. If you like volatility and macro plays, crude oil is still the heavyweight champion.
Why trade it? Because oil doesn't just reflect energy markets it's a proxy for everything from geopolitical stability to inflation. One wild headline and you could be staring at a five-dollar move before lunch.
You <a href="https://us.plus500.com/en/?id=115158&amp;tags=CommodityFutures_Article&amp;pl=2">can access WTI crude futures contracts through platforms like Plus500</a>, where the spreads are tight and the leverage is real.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">2. Gold&nbsp;</h2>
Whenever things get weird, gold shines. That's the rule. And 2025 is serving up weirdness in spades: rate cuts in the U.S., inflation that refuses to go quietly, and enough global unrest to keep risk appetite in check.
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/gold-futures-explained">Gold futures</a> have rallied multiple times this year, not because anyone suddenly found new industrial use cases, but because fear is a powerful buying signal. Add in rising central bank demand and potential dollar weakness, and you've got all the ingredients for another potential gold rush.
Why trade it? Gold isn't just a hedge. It's a trader's playbook for uncertainty. If you think things are about to hit the fan, or if they already are, gold may be your safety net and your potential profit driver.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">3. Natural Gas&nbsp;</h2>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/futures/NG">Natural gas</a> is that wildcard commodity that either makes your week or blows up your stop-loss like a bad action movie. And with global energy supply chains still sorting themselves out post-Ukraine invasion and green energy transitions sputtering into place, natural gas futures are having a serious moment.
Add in unpredictable weather, storage data, and tariff spats disrupting export flows, and you've got a contract that's doing Olympic-level flips.
Why trade it? Because nothing spikes like natural gas when the forecast changes or someone sneezes near a pipeline. The potential upside (and downside) is massive but it's not for the faint of heart.
Platforms like <a href="https://us.plus500.com/en/?id=115158&amp;tags=CommodityFutures_Article&amp;pl=2">Plus500 give traders access to natural gas futures with built-in risk management tools</a>.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">4. Copper</h2>
This industrial metal is considered a reliable barometer for global economic health and right now, it&#8217;s flashing signals like a broken traffic light.
China's construction rebound is still in limbo, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-electric-vehicle-stocks">electric vehicle (EV)</a> demand is steady but not exploding, and infrastructure spending in the U.S. and EU is both a catalyst and a question mark. Tariff shifts on raw materials are also making copper prices jumpy, as global trade policies tighten up again.
Why trade it? Because copper moves in sync with the economy, but it also has a sneaky speculative streak. If you&#8217;re betting on a rebound or a reversal this is one of the more nuanced plays in the futures market.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">5. Soybeans&nbsp;</h2>
They may not have the glitz of gold or the grit of oil, but don't sleep on agricultural commodities, especially this one. <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/topic/soybean-futures">Soybean futures</a> are red-hot thanks to shifting weather patterns, trade disruptions, and rising global demand.
China's buying again, U.S. farmers are juggling yields and costs, and Latin American production is in flux. Soybeans are suddenly a lot more interesting than their salad-bar reputation would suggest.
Why trade it? Because food security is now a geopolitical issue, and soft commodities like soybeans are right in the middle of it. When yields drop or exports surge, prices can explode and traders can cash in.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Futures Wait for No One</h2>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/commodities-price-prediction">Commodity futures</a> aren't just relics of old-school finance, they're the high-octane corner of the market where real-world events translate into real-time profits (or losses, if you're not careful). These contracts are highly liquid, volatile, and move on macro headlines you probably saw this morning.
If you&#8217;re looking to get tactical in 2025, the 5 futures above are where the smart money, and the brave money, is paying attention. They're volatile, yes, but they're also full of opportunity if you know where to look and how to play.
<a href="https://us.plus500.com/en/?id=115158&amp;tags=CommodityFutures_Article&amp;pl=2">Platforms like Plus500 make it easy to jump into these markets</a> with risk tools and global coverage. Whether you're hedging, speculating, or just curious, it's one of the fastest ways to tap into what's really moving the world right now. Trading in futures involves the risk of loss and is not suitable for everyone. Not all applicants will qualify.

&nbsp;Apple Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) has expressed apprehension over the potential financial consequences of a contempt ruling in favor of&nbsp;Epic Games. The tech giant has warned that this ruling could lead to &#8220;substantial&#8221; financial losses.
What Happened: Apple is concerned about the financial implications of the recent court ruling, hence, it is seeking a stay on the order. The company stated that the ruling could cost it "hundreds of millions to billions" of dollars on an annual basis, <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/07/apple-says-epic-games-contempt-ruling-could-cost-substantial-sums-.html">CNBC</a> reported.
Judge Rogers&#8217; new ruling broadens earlier decisions by ordering the Tim Cook-led company to immediately stop charging commissions on iPhone app purchases made through web links within apps, along with other changes.
In reaction to the contempt ruling, Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney suggested a peace deal. He stated that Epic Games would reintroduce Fortnite to the App Store and abandon all litigation if Apple relaxed its App Store rules.
On Wednesday, Sweeney stated that battling Apple over the past five years cost the company over $1 billion — but he believes it was worth it, reported Business Insider.

Why It Matters: The ruling came in the wake of a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/25/04/45123864/apple-ordered-to-ease-app-store-rules-in-us-epic-games-ceo-tim-sweeney-proposes-peace-deal-saying-well-return-fortnite-and-drop-all-litigation-only-if">U.S. court order</a>&nbsp;that found Apple Inc. in violation of an injunction against anti-steering practices. Following this, Epic Games, backed by Tencent Holdings (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TCEHY#OTC">TCEHY</a>), proposed to bring Fortnite back to the App Store, provided Apple met certain conditions.
Furthermore, a federal court&#8217;s decision to slash Apple Inc.&#8217;s 27% commission on alternative in-app payments was seen as a significant victory for Epic and a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/05/45192790/apples-27-fee-cut-is-good-news-for-epic-app-developers-google-remains-unaffected">rare moment </a>of leverage for developers.
This ruling is a critical juncture in the ongoing legal feud between Apple and Epic Games. The potential financial impact on Apple underscores the gravity of the situation and the possible implications for the company&#8217;s profitability. 
Besides, the reintroduction of Fortnite to the App Store could also have significant implications for the gaming industry and mobile app market.

On Wednesday, the stock slipped 1.14%, closing at $196.25, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>.
