A newly finalized trade agreement between the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46650830/donald-trump-announces-15-tariff-trade-agreement-with-eu-ending-months-of-trade-uncertainty">U.S. and the European Union</a> is poised to significantly benefit U.S.-based LNG exporters, the Magnificent 7 technology giants, and the broader tech sector, according to market experts.
What Happened: The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46650830/donald-trump-announces-15-tariff-trade-agreement-with-eu-ending-months-of-trade-uncertainty">deal</a>, announced ahead of the Aug. 1 deadline, is seen as removing a key layer of uncertainty that had hung over the markets. 
Louis Navellier, founder and chief investment officer of Navellier &amp; Associates, told <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga</a> that LNG exporters such as Dorian LPG Ltd. as likely winners. He noted that &#8220;the analyst community is revising their earnings estimates higher&#8221; for these companies.
The trade deal includes the EU's commitment to purchase $750 billion in U.S. energy over three years and invest another $600 billion in the U.S. economy.
Navellier also pointed to the &#8220;Magnificent 7 and other big U.S. technology companies&#8221; as beneficiaries, anticipating that &#8220;the EU is expected to be more reluctant to hit them with digital taxes&#8221; under the Donald Trump Administration.
The agreement&#8217;s impact extends to the overall U.S. stock market. Chris Zaccarelli, chief investment officer at Northlight Asset Management, told Benzinga that he views the deal as &#8220;good for US markets as it removes some of the uncertainty that was an overhang for the market, and at a 15% rate, it is lower than what was originally feared.&#8221;
Zaccarelli reiterated the positive outlook for technology and emphasized the energy sector, stating it &#8220;will be an even bigger beneficiary because of the intent of the EU to buy more energy from the United States as a result of the new trade deal.&#8221;
While the deal brings clarity, some of the positive news may have already been factored into stock prices. Zaccarelli noted, &#8220;news of this deal being &#8216;close&#8217; was released last week and some of the good news was likely already reflected in prices before today's official announcement.&#8221;
Here&#8217;s a list of the energy and technology sector beneficiaries highlighted by experts;

However, major outstanding trade negotiations include China, where Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is reportedly in talks to extend the Aug. 14 deadline, and continuing discussions with Mexico and Canada.
Smaller deals with other nations are also anticipated to be finalized by the end of this week.

Robinhood Cofounder Baiju Bhatt Offloads $42.6 Million In Stock As Shares Soar 404%—Living Trust Dumps Class A Holdings

Palantir Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) cofounder Joe Lonsdale revealed a six-layer artificial intelligence investment framework during a debate with company chairman Peter Thiel, raising concerns about his own firm&#8217;s position in the competitive landscape.
What Happened: Speaking on his &#8220;American Optimist&#8221; podcast with LinkedIn cofounder Reid Hoffman, Lonsdale outlined an investment thesis that divides AI opportunities into six distinct levels. 
Level zero encompasses energy infrastructure, while level one includes chip manufacturers like Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>). Data centers occupy level two, followed by model companies including Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) and 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>) at level three.
The framework places software infrastructure companies at level four, where Lonsdale positioned Palantir. Level five represents direct applications and services in the broader economy.
&#8220;I&#8217;m worried level three is going to eat a lot of level four,&#8221; Lonsdale said, expressing concern about model companies potentially consuming the software infrastructure layer where Palantir operates.

Hoffman, who serves on Microsoft Corp.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) board and invests through Greylock Partners, largely agreed with the framework&#8217;s structure. He emphasized that venture capital firms should focus primarily on level five applications while selectively pursuing level four infrastructure opportunities.
Why It Matters: The discussion highlighted ongoing challenges in AI startup funding, particularly around scale compute requirements. Hoffman&#8217;s previous company, Inflection AI, was acquired by Microsoft after launching five months after ChatGPT&#8216;s debut.
&#8220;There&#8217;s a limited number of startups that are going to be able to do the scale compute infrastructure that is required for frontier models,&#8221; Hoffman said, noting monthly expenses can reach $1 billion for compute-intensive AI companies.
Lonsdale&#8217;s 8VC venture firm has concentrated investments in level five applications, including recent backing of Bedrock Robotics, a construction automation startup founded by former Waymo executives. The company emerged from stealth mode in July to deploy AI-powered heavy machinery in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46462578/palantir-co-founder-joe-lonsdale-backs-bedrock-robotics-to-automate-construction-union-leader-calls-it-misguided">the $2 trillion U.S. construction industry</a>.
Meanwhile, Hoffman continues expanding his AI portfolio with a $12 million investment in Sanmai Technologies, developing non-invasive brain stimulation <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/topics/25/07/46260744/billionaire-reid-hoffman-bets-12m-on-this-ai-brain-scanner-to-rival-neuralink-without-surgery-or-drugs">devices priced under $500 for mental health treatment</a>.

The European Union&#8217;s pledge to purchase $750 billion worth&nbsp;of U.S. energy products over&nbsp;the next three years, as part of its trade deal with the U.S., has been met with skepticism from industry experts.
What Happened:&nbsp;President Donald Trump announced a trade agreement with the European Union, under which the EU committed to purchasing $750 billion worth of U.S. energy products over the next three years. However, industry analysts have expressed doubts about the feasibility of this pledge,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.marketwatch.com/story/the-e-u-says-it-will-buy-750-billion-of-u-s-energy-products-why-thats-absurd-ac5de025?mod=home_ln">reported</a>&nbsp;MarketWatch.
However, to meet the $750 billion target, the EU would be required to more than triple its annual U.S. energy imports, a move that energy experts have deemed &#8220;wholly unrealistic.&#8221;
Michael Lynch, president of Strategic&nbsp;Energy &amp; Economic Research, questioned the feasibility of the plan, stating, &#8220;While&nbsp;it is possible to imagine&nbsp;an increased level of [energy]&nbsp;exports to Europe, this would&nbsp;be a major upheaval in&nbsp;our energy trade.&#8221;
In 2024, U.S. energy exports to the EU totaled $78.5 billion, implying that the EU would have to buy approximately&nbsp;$250 billion per year of&nbsp;energy products from the U.S.&nbsp;for the next three years&nbsp;to reach the $750 billion figure.
Experts also pointed out that energy flows are driven by private-sector buying choices rather than political commitments. Matt Smith, lead U.S.&nbsp;analyst at Kpler, said the&nbsp;$250 billion-a-year figure seems to be a &#8220;wholly unrealistic number.&#8221;
Rory Johnston, founder of CommodityContext, stated on X, &#8220;&#8230;even if the $250 bn/yr in E.U. energy purchases from the U.S. pledge wasn&#8217;t absurd on its face &#8211; it is, for the record.&#8221;
&#8220;So how would literally any of this work?&#8221; he questioned.
Despite ongoing skepticism, some argue that the U.S. could partially offset the EU&#8217;s lost Russian supply, given that American LNG exports to Europe have reached record levels. However, meeting the $750 billion commitment largely through LNG would require a scale and pace that surpass current logistical, commercial and infrastructure capabilities within the three-year timeframe of the agreement.

Why It Matters: The trade deal has been met with criticism from economists and political leaders alike. Prior to the announcement, economists warned that the deal would disproportionately harm American consumers and businesses.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/07/46651859/trumps-new-eu-trade-deal-labeled-bad-news-by-economists-as-dow-futures-spike-over-150-points">Economist Peter Schiff</a>&nbsp;noted that under the new terms, Americans would face higher tariffs on most European goods.
Furthermore, the deal failed to spark significant market gains, with investors focusing on more <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/07/46678276/jim-cramer-says-trumps-tariff-deal-with-eu-lands-dead-last-on-wall-streets-priority-list-heres-whats-important">pressing concerns</a> such as Big Tech earnings and Federal Reserve policy decisions, as&nbsp;highlighted by CNBC commentator, Jim Cramer.
French Prime Minister François Bayrou also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46679465/trumps-eu-trade-deal-an-act-of-submission-says-french-pm-its-a-dark-day">criticized the deal</a>, branding it as an act of "submission" by the European Union. The deal sets a blanket 15% tariff on most EU exports to the United States, which is half the 30% Trump had threatened for August 1, but still far above the low single‑digit duties European manufacturers long enjoyed. In exchange, Brussels agreed to buy $750 billion in American energy and steer $600 billion in additional investment into U.S. industry and defense goods over the next several years.

Trump's $750 Billion EU Energy Deal 'Wholly Unrealistic' And 'Absurd,' Say Analysts: 'How Would Literally Any Of This Work'

Investment bank Morgan Stanley (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MS#NYSE">MS</a>) has published a report predicting a $200 billion market for self-driving cars by the year 2030.
What Happened: Analyst Adam Jonas and Tim Hsiao shared in the report that adoption for autonomous vehicles will take off in the near future with the growth of AI and comprise 28% of unit sales by 2030, Bloomberg reported <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/videos/2025-07-28/morgan-stanley-sees-200b-autonomous-car-market-by-2030-video">on</a> Monday.
The report outlined 5 levels of autonomous driving for vehicles and predicts that smart driving would generate over $300-$400 billion in revenue for companies by 2035.
However, the report also spoke about China's dominance in the all-electric mobility sector, writing that "An outsized EV user base and tech deflation have given China an early edge."
The report also added that Silicon Valley's "dominance of AI computing power and data" is an advantage for tech companies as well as the German big three automakers.
Why It Matters: The news comes in as autonomous driving in the U.S. could face stricter regulations from the government after President Donald Trump's nominee for the NHTSA, Jonathan Morrison, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46434613/elon-musks-tesla-could-face-stricter-oversight-as-trumps-nhtsa-pick-targets-autonomous-driving-cannot-sit-back">called for tougher oversight</a> on the sector.
Autonomous driving has seen growth in the U.S. as Uber Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) partnered up with Alphabet Inc.'s (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>) Waymo to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46485120/gary-black-thinks-uber-benefits-most-as-autonomous-driving-technology-develops-says-tesla-could-undercut-other-ride-hailing-companies-by-mastering-unsupervised-autonomy">expand its services</a> in Atlanta.&nbsp;
Elsewhere, Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) has shared plans to expand into cities like Phoenix and the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/07/46643657/tesla-shares-rise-nearly-4-on-bay-area-robotaxi-launch-hopes">San Francisco Bay Area</a>, in pursuit of Elon Musk's ambitious plan to serve over <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46594297/elon-musk-aims-to-deploy-robotaxis-to-serve-half-the-us-population-by-the-end-of-2025-targets-million-optimus-units-annually-as-fast-as-its-humanly-possible">half the population</a> of the U.S. with Tesla robotaxis by the end of the year.

Russian flag carrier Aeroflot canceled more than 100 flights on Monday after a crippling cyberattack that two pro‑Ukraine hacking groups claimed as their work, disrupting travel across the world's largest country.
What Happened: According to a <a href="https://apnews.com/article/aeroflot-cyberattack-russia-flights-cancellations-delays-hackers-2cb7e23d47638769021e02df8cfd1ec4">report</a> by the Associated Press, the groups, Silent Crow and the Belarus Cyber‑Partisans, said they penetrated the airline's systems, forcing widespread outages.
Aeroflot acknowledged problems but did not detail the cause. "In a statement released early Monday, Aeroflot warned passengers that the company's information technology system was experiencing unspecified difficulties and that disruption could follow."
Russia's Prosecutor's Office later said a cyberattack caused the outage and opened a criminal probe. The Kremlin called the incident "quite alarming."
Social media images of Moscow's Sheremetyevo airport showed crowds of stranded travelers, and delays also hit Aeroflot subsidiaries Rossiya and Pobeda, with some international flights to Belarus, Armenia and Uzbekistan affected.

Silent Crow said it had been inside Aeroflot's corporate network for a year and claimed to have copied internal and customer data before destroying resources, assertions news outlets could not immediately verify. The Belarus Cyber‑Partisans called the operation one of their most consequential, saying they exploited multiple vulnerabilities over months. The group based out of Belarus told AP their aim was to &#8220;deliver a crushing blow.&#8221;
Why It Matters: The Associated Press noted Russia has previously faced disruptive attacks on government sites and state companies such as Russian Railways, while airports have endured periodic shutdowns tied to drone threats. Ukrainian drone attacks have also repeatedly caused mass delays at Russia's airports this summer, grounding flights amid safety concerns.
Cyber disruptions to aviation aren't unique to Russia. The Seattle‑Tacoma International Airport, operated by the Port Of Seattle, was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40569486/seattle-tacoma-airports-operations-disrupted-by-cyberattack-heres-what-to-know-if-you-are-travelling">snarled by a cyberattack</a> last year, although flight operations weren&#8217;t affected at the time.

Russia's Airline Gets Hobbled By Potent Cyberattack, Kremlin Calls Attack 'Quite Alarming'

Entrepreneur and investor Anthony Pompliano ignited a discussion Monday on the potential of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) as a corporate reserve asset, deeming it the &#8220;contrarian&#8221; bet against the weakening U.S. dollar.
What Happened: During an interview with CNBC, Pompliano said that there should be &#8220;way more pressure&#8221; on the public companies that are leaving a large portion of shareholders&#8217; economic value in dollars.
Pompliano said that the dollar has lost 30% of its purchasing power over the last five years. This was closer to the Bureau of Labor Statistics consumer price index, which <a href="https://www.bls.gov/data/inflation_calculator.htm">estimated</a> that today&#8217;s prices are 25% higher than the average prices in June 2020.
&#8220;It goes back to the fact that if you are running a company and you have shareholders, and your job is to protect the economic value of that business, are you better off holding dollars for the next ten years or putting it in Bitcoin?&#8221; he added.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Public companies are destroying economic value of their shareholders by holding a large allocation to an asset that is guaranteed to devalue. Holding bitcoin on your balance sheet is contrarian today. Eventually it will be consensus.

From a Bitcoiner&#8217;s perspective, Pompliano argued, that companies are speculating on the dollar&#8217;s ability to store value, and that the idea of storing corporate assets in Bitcoin has now become a &#8220;contrarian trait.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Pompliano has been a vocal backer of Bitcoin. Last month, he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/25/06/46109437/anthony-pomplianos-company-may-have-bought-more-bitcoin-than-gamestop-but-michael-saylors-strategy-and-mara-still-reign-supreme" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">launched a Bitcoin treasury company</a>, ProCap BTC, LLC, which has already accumulated 4,932 BTC, worth $587 million at current prices.

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi criticized President Donald Trump&#8216;s decision to deny Taiwan President Lai Ching-te permission to visit New York, calling it a dangerous signal that America &#8220;can be bullied by Beijing into silence on Taiwan.&#8221;
What Happened: &#8220;Donald Trump&#8217;s decision to deny permission for President Lai to visit New York sends a dangerous signal: that the United States can be bullied by Beijing into silence on Taiwan,&#8221; Pelosi stated, citing a Financial Times report. &#8220;This is a victory&#8221; for Chinese President Xi Jinping.

The Trump administration blocked Lai&#8217;s planned August transit through New York en route to Paraguay, Guatemala and Belize after China raised objections with Washington, according <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/21575bec-5cdd-47ee-9db2-3031c4ea7ca7">to</a> three sources cited by the Financial Times. Lai&#8217;s office said on Monday he had no travel plans due to typhoon recovery and ongoing U.S. tariff discussions.
The decision deepens concerns among Taiwan supporters that Trump is softening his China stance while pursuing a summit with Jinping. The Financial Times reported the Commerce Department was told to freeze planned export controls against China during ongoing trade talks.

Why It Matters: Market implications are significant given Taiwan&#8217;s semiconductor dominance. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>) produces advanced chips for major U.S. tech companies, while recent reports show NVIDIA Corp.

TSM shares previously fell over 2% in July 2024 when Trump, as a presidential candidate, said Taiwan should &#8220;pay us for defense,&#8221; demonstrating <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39807774/trump-says-taiwan-should-pay-us-for-defense-ex-presidents-remark-triggers-fall-in-tsmc-shares">market sensitivity to U.S.-Taiwan policy shifts.</a>
China expert Bonnie Glaser from the German Marshall Fund said Trump &#8220;wants to avoid irritating Beijing while U.S.-China negotiations are ongoing.&#8221; She warned the decision weakens deterrence and emboldens Xi to seek additional Taiwan concessions, according to the FT report.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Chinese Vice-Premier He Lifeng began a third round of trade negotiations in Stockholm on Monday. The administration has also delayed tough China actions after Beijing slowed rare earth exports, leveraging its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/07/46677080/trump-xi-meeting-on-horizon-as-us-china-hold-marathon-5-hour-trade-talks-in-stockholm">industry dominance against Washington</a>.
