Future Fund LLC's Gary Black thinks that Elon Musk's Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) holds a key advantage over Robotaxi rivals 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 and Amazon.com Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) Zoox.
What Happened: "The one advantage that $TSLA bears don't fully appreciate is that every TSLA robotaxi produced rolls out of the TSLA factory robotaxi-ready," the investor said in a post on social media platform X on Thursday.
He then outlined how Tesla's production capabilities differ from Zoox, Waymo and other autonomous rivals, which, in most cases, modify the vehicle to make it ready for autonomy after the vehicle is produced.
In contrast to Musk's EV giant, which produces autonomy-ready vehicles straight off the lot. "That scale advantage could be very significant," Black said in the post.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Why It Matters: The investor's comments come as he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46088826/gary-black-calls-out-lack-of-constructive-feedback-on-teslas-robotaxi-launch">has raised questions</a> about the company's Robotaxi in the past on several occasions. Recently, Black said that investors need to stop focusing on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46110126/gary-black-weighs-in-on-tesla-vs-waymo-debate-says-investors-need-to-stop-focusing-on-efficacy">Robotaxi's efficacy</a> when compared to Waymo.
However, Tesla's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46066530/tesla-wants-to-keep-its-texas-self-driving-data-private-amid-austin-robotaxi-launch-report">Robotaxi launch in Austin</a> on Sunday invited a lot of praise from analysts and experts, with Wedbush Securities' Dan Ives calling it a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46049232/dan-ives-hails-very-impressive-robotaxi-ride-in-austin-predicts-55-upside-for-tesla-stock-as-golden-age-begins">"golden age"</a> for the company, while Piper Sandler analysts think the launch could lead to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46108079/tslas-robotaxi-could-disrupt-auto-industry-says-piper-sandler-contrasts-goldmans-cautious-view-tesla-will-likely-win">disruption in the auto industry</a>.
Despite the praise, there have been concerns about robotaxis, specifically, the FSD or Full Self-Driving tech that's at the helm of the Robotaxi business model.&nbsp;
Recently, the NHTSA said it was going to review incidents of possible <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46067027/tesla-robotaxi-faces-nhtsa-scrutiny-over-traffic-violations-during-austin-launch">traffic law violations</a> during the Robotaxi launch, including speeding and driving in the wrong lane.
This comes as Tesla is already facing a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46068107/elon-musks-tesla-faces-wrongful-death-lawsuit-over-model-s-crash-which-claimed-3-lives-plaintiffs-call-cars-design-defective-and-unreasonably-dangerous">wrongful death lawsuit</a> over a fatal Model S crash in New Jersey in 2024.

Tesla Robotaxi Has A Major Advantage Over Rivals Waymo And Zoox, Says Gary Black: '...Could Be Very Significant'

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) announced on Thursday new terms allowing developers in the European Union to communicate and promote external purchase offers, marking a significant compliance step under the Digital Markets Act.
What Happened: The tech giant&#8217;s updated terms enable developers to direct users to alternative payment channels, including websites, alternative app marketplaces, or other apps, accessible both within apps through web views or outside the application entirely. 
This represents Apple&#8217;s latest attempt to address EU regulatory pressure <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/06/39451832/apple-faces-eu-antitrust-probe-for-breaking-digital-rules-tim-cooks-company-may-face-fine-up-to-">following months of antitrust scrutiny</a>.
Under the new framework, developers can implement actionable links allowing customers to complete purchases through alternative payment processors. However, these transactions will be subject to new fee structures, including initial acquisition fees, store services fees and, for certain arrangements, the Core Technology Commission (CTC).
&#8220;The CTC reflects value Apple provides developers through ongoing investments in the tools, technologies, and services that enable them to build and share innovative apps with users,&#8221; Apple stated in developer documentation released Thursday.

The changes come after the European Commission imposed requirements under the Digital Markets Act, which aims to break the dominance of large technology platforms. Brussels previously accused Apple of stifling competition on its app store, with the company facing potential <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/06/39451832/apple-faces-eu-antitrust-probe-for-breaking-digital-rules-tim-cooks-company-may-face-fine-up-to-">fines up to 10% of global annual revenue</a> for DMA violations.
Apple plans to transition to a single business model across the EU by Jan. 1, 2026, moving from the current Core Technology Fee structure to the Core Technology Commission for digital goods and services transactions. 
Why It Matters: The regulatory action follows Apple&#8217;s February 2024 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/02/37195770/big-tech-in-trouble-apple-to-receive-hefty-fine-for-alleged-eu-law-breach">settlement of a €500 million European Commission</a> fine related to music streaming services, stemming from a 2019 Spotify complaint alleging anticompetitive practices in app store policies.
Beginning with iOS 18.6 and iPadOS 18.6, Apple will provide updated user experiences for installing alternative marketplaces or apps from developer websites in the EU. 
For qualifying transactions, Apple will charge a 2% initial acquisition fee within six months of app installation, plus store services fees ranging from 5% to 13% depending on service tier selection. Apps exceeding one million annual installs will remain subject to the €0.50 Core Technology Fee per install.
Apple is currently underperforming in Benzinga's Edge Stock Rankings, showing weak scores and negative price trends across all key metrics.

Apple Opens EU App Store To External Payments To Avoid Fines Under Digital Markets Act, But Adds New Fees

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Wednesday that U.S. air strikes on Iran's nuclear sites have pushed Tehran "much further away" from a bomb, countering a leaked Defense Intelligence Agency estimate that the setback might last only months.
What Happened: Speaking alongside President Donald Trump at a NATO summit, Rubio <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/articles/2025/06/experts-agree-irans-nuclear-facilities-have-been-obliterated/">argued</a> the decisive blow was the destruction of a "conversion facility," the plant that turns gaseous uranium into the solid forms needed to forge a weapon's core. "Everything underneath that mountain is in bad shape," he told reporters. "They are way behind today compared to where they were just seven days ago because of what President Trump did."
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true"><a href="https://t.co/t9tB6lZ5Zg">pic.twitter.com/t9tB6lZ5Zg</a>
&mdash; Marco Rubio (@marcorubio) <a href="https://twitter.com/marcorubio/status/1938376311690735692?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 26, 2025</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>

Conversion, according to the Nuclear Threat Initiative, is the <a href="https://www.nti.org/education-center/facilities/uranium-conversion-facility-ucf/?utm_source=chatgpt.com">hinge</a> of the fuel cycle. Without it, enriched uranium cannot be cast into metal or fuel plates for an explosive device. Iran's main facility at Esfahan historically produced both uranium hexafluoride gas and uranium metal under IAEA safeguards.
Rubio dismissed suggestions that the strike <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/06/46086403/us-attack-on-iranian-nuclear-sites-reportedly-set-tehran-back-only-a-few-months-white-house-calls-assessment-flat-out-wrong">merely bought time</a>. "That story is a false story and really shouldn't be re-reported because it doesn't accurately reflect what's happening," he said, rejecting the DIA's preliminary finding that Iran might replace damaged equipment within the year.

Why It Matters: Trump repeated that Iran's sites were "obliterated," echoing a White House essay that branded contrary press coverage "fake news." Yet the DIA leak, first reported by CNN and <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/jun/24/iran-strikes-nuclear-sites-report">detailed</a> by The Guardian, said Tehran had removed most enriched material before the bombing.
Independent analysts urged caution. The Arms Control Association <a href="https://www.armscontrol.org/blog/2025-06-25/irans-nuclear-facilities-status-updates">noted</a> Esfahan was hit only in a second round of strikes and that some conversion lines may be repairable. Markets are already gaming the fallout. Crypto bettors on Polymarket sharply <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/46066361/us-iran-nuclear-deal-in-2025-crypto-bettors-on-polymarket-see-strong-chance-after-trumps-ceasefire-announcement">raised the odds</a> of a 2025 U.S.–Iran nuclear deal after the cease-fire announcement. Meanwhile, Trump&#8217;s comparison of the American strikes on Iran to the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46131078/trumps-comparison-of-us-strikes-on-iran-to-hiroshima-and-nagasaki-atomic-bombings-sparks-outrage-in-japan-unacceptable">sparked criticism</a> from Japanese officials.
Approval ratings for Trump have also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46129934/trump-approval-ratings-drop-after-attack-on-iran-tie-for-worst-since-second-term-started">taken a beating</a> in the lead-up and aftermath of the attack on Iran, according to a new Morning Consult poll.

Trevor Wells, growth marketing manager at cryptocurrency exchange Gemini, highlighted on Thursday various rewards the firm&#8217;s Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) credit card offers, which co-founder Cameron Winklevoss described as &#8220;insane.&#8221;
What Happened: Wells shared his calculations on X, breaking down the potential returns from a Bitcoin credit card offer. 
He stated that if one spends $3,000 within the first 90 days, they&#8217;ll get $200 in BTC back. If they sign up using a referral link (like from a friend), they get an extra $50, and they also earn 1% back on a minimum purchase of $30.
Adding it all up, it amounted to $280 back when a user spends $3,000, which is about 9.3% back in Bitcoin.
The numbers cheered Winklevoss, who stated, &#8220;insane in the membrane.&#8221; <a href="https://twitter.com/chev0r/status/1938384317341974901?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1938384762973847682%7Ctwgr%5Ef4a70ac8a813a51537b78fd7cbb9edce2377a42b%7Ctwcon%5Es3_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Feditorial.benzinga.com%2Fwp-admin%2Fpost.php%3Fpost%3D964242action%3Dedit" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"></a>

That said, selling or converting crypto rewards would entail fees.
The card is not without its drawbacks. The crypto rewards cannot be used to pay off the credit card balance, <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/select/gemini-credit-card-review/">according </a>to a CNBC report.
Moreover, the card cannot be directly used to buy cryptocurrency on the Gemini exchange, <a href="https://www.bitdegree.org/crypto/gemini-credit-card-review#:~:text=Certain%20transactions%20are%20not%20eligible,on%20the%20Gemini%20exchange%20itself.">according </a>to a review done by the Web3 learning platform BitDegree.
The market has begun to heat up, with fellow cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase Global Inc.

Cameron Winklevoss Is Touting 'Insane In The Membrane' Gemini Card Offers, But The Bitcoin Rewards Game Is Still In Its Infancy

Reported Earlier, Public Storage Subsidiary PSOC Prices $475M In 4.375% Notes Due 2030 And $400 M In 5.000% Notes Due 2035

Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) announced to retire the iconic Blue Screen of Death after nearly 40 years. The tech giant is replacing it with a Black Screen of Death for Windows 11 users.
What Happened: The BSOD, a familiar sight for Windows users, is being revamped.  The Verge <a href="https://www.theverge.com/news/692648/microsoft-bsod-black-screen-of-death-color-change-official">reported</a>, the traditional blue color, frowning face, and QR code will be replaced by a simpler black screen. The new design will resemble the black screen seen during a Windows update but will also display the stop code and faulty system driver, providing more information on the cause of the crash. The change aims to provide clearer information on the issue, allowing for faster resolution.
Microsoft&#8217;s Vice President of Enterprise and OS Security, David Weston stated, "Part of it is just cleaner information on what exactly went wrong, where it's Windows versus a component."

The new screen will be rolled out in a Windows 11 update later this summer, along with the Quick Machine Recovery feature, designed to restore non-booting machines quickly.
Why It Matters: The retirement of the Blue Screen of Death comes after a series of issues with Windows 11 updates. In <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41136348/another-blue-screen-day-microsofts-windows-11-reboot-might-cause-temporary-glitches-heres-how-to-fix">October 2024</a>, a Windows 11 update caused devices to restart multiple times or become unresponsive with blue or green screens. This issue was part of a broader problem caused by a Crowdstrike Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWD#NASDAQ">CRWD</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39855896/how-to-fix-crowdstrike-issue-causing-blue-screen-of-death-on-your-windows-pc">incident</a> that resulted in Windows computers crashing worldwide. This change is part of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41136348/another-blue-screen-day-microsofts-windows-11-reboot-might-cause-temporary-glitches-heres-how-to-fix">Microsoft</a>&#8216;s broader effort to enhance<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43455003/windows-11-disaster-microsoft-quietly-removes-workaround-for-unsupported-pcs-leaving-millions-stranded"> Window</a>s&#8217; resilience 
Despite these challenges, Microsoft&#8217;s stock has been performing well. In June, Microsoft shares surged to a new all-time high of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/06/45803833/microsoft-hits-record-high-amid-strong-tech-sector-momentum-whats-going-on">$469.65</a>, despite no company-specific news. The rally was attributed to broader market trends favoring mega-cap tech stocks, particularly those leading in artificial intelligence and cloud computing.
Price in Action: Microsoft ended the trading session with a 1.05% gain ($5.18). In after-hours trading, the stock dipped slightly by 0.05% to $497.20, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/MSFT">Benzinga Pro data.</a>
Benzinga&#8217;s Edge Stock Rankings indicates Microsoft stock has Momentum in the 69th percentile.<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-3/#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound"> Find out</a> the stock value of other tech giants.

OpenAI engineers Lucas Beyer, Alexander Kolesnikov and Xiaohua Zhai have dismissed rumors that they each received a $100 million signing bonus to join Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>).
What Happened: The trio, who also set up OpenAI&#8217;s Zurich office last year, confirmed their transition to Meta. However, they denied assertions made by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman about the substantial signing bonus through a post on X. Beyer termed the news as &#8220;fake.&#8221;

The three engineers, who joined OpenAI in December 2024 after departing from Google (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>) DeepMind, are transitioning to Meta amid fierce competition for AI talent. 
Despite the rumors, no senior executive at Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) has received a $100 million payout over the past three years, according to the company&#8217;s financial filings. The highest compensation last year was awarded to COO Javier Olivan, totaling $25.5 million. Last year, the median total annual compensation for all Meta employees, excluding Mark Zuckerberg, was $417,400, <a href="https://fortune.com/2025/06/26/former-openai-researcher-lucas-beyer-pours-cold-water-on-100-million-meta-signing-bonus/">reported </a>Fortune.

Why It Matters: Meta is assembling a top-tier artificial intelligence team called the "superintelligence team," consisting of 50 experts. CEO Mark Zuckerberg is personally leading the effort to position Meta as a major rival to other tech giants in the AI space.
As a result, Meta&#8217;s aggressive recruitment strategy has been making headlines recently. Earlier this month, Altman had characterized the offers from Meta as &#8220;crazy,&#8221; claiming on a podcast with brother Jack Altman that the social media behemoth was offering $100 million signing bonuses to attract OpenAI&#8217;s top talent. The OpenAI CEO also stated, "I'm really happy that, at least so far, none of our best people have decided to take him up on that."
Meta&#8217;s CTO, Andrew Bosworth, then revealed that OpenAI is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46041399/meta-tried-luring-openais-top-minds-with-massive-paychecks-but-sam-altman-neglected-to-mention-that-hes-countering-those-offers-says-andrew-bosworth">actively countering</a> Meta&#8217;s lucrative job offers to retain its top employees. This indicates a fierce battle for talent in the AI industry, with both companies vying for the best minds in the field.
Meanwhile, Meta&#8217;s stock has been <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/content/46103843/analyst-sees-meta-hitting-800-what-may-lead-shares-to-new-highs">performing well</a>, with analysts predicting a potential rise to $800. This comes after several significant announcements from the tech company, leading to substantial increases in price target estimates from Wall Street analysts.
On a year-to-date basis, shares of Mets jumped 21.17%, as per <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>
