Delta Air Lines, Inc.

Delta Air Lines Weathers The Storm: CEO Expects 'Demand To Accelerate' To Wrap 2025

Trading in Apple Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) is quiet on Thursday. The stock has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46337313/apple-needs-product-focused-ceo-say-analysts-as-tim-cook-faces-heat-over-ai-failures-and-innovation-slump">not participated</a> in the recent broad market rally. While NVIDIA Corp&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) and Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) have soared to all-time highs, Apple has lagged.
But now there&#8217;s a chance Apple could be about to put some downward pressure on the market. This is why it is the Stock of the Day.
Despite its lackluster performance, Apple is still the third-largest stock in the Technology Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XLK#NYSE">XLK</a>): Nvidia is 14.88%, Microsoft makes up 14.02%, and Apple is 11.81%. This means that the direction of Apple's stock can still have a significant impact on others within the technology sector.
As you can see on the chart, Apple once again found resistance around the $213 level for the third time since May. The last two times this happened, a meaningful sell-off followed.

Stocks frequently reverse and sell off after hitting a resistance level.
Resistance is a large group of traders and investors who wish to sell shares at, or close to, the same level. There are enough or more than enough sell orders to fill all of the buy orders. This is why rallies end, or at least pause, when this is reached.
Stocks can sell off of resistance when some traders and investors, who wish to sell, become anxious. They know the buyers will go to whoever is willing to sell them shares at the lowest price.
These anxious sellers worry that another seller will undercut them. As a result, they reduce their offer prices. Other anxious sellers see this and do the same thing. It can turn into a snowball effect that forces the price lower.
There is a good chance that Apple is about to sell off of this resistance for a third time. This could put downward pressure on the technology sector. And that could put downward pressure on the broader market.

Warner Bros. Discovery (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBD#NASDAQ">WBD</a>) has high hopes for its "Superman" reboot film, set for theaters this weekend. The film has been<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/22/12/30116813/its-a-bird-its-a-plane-its-a-superhero-movie-franchise-rebrand-that-could-help-this-stock" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> years in the making</a> and is a potential relaunch of the DC Comics movie universe, but one former Superman actor is crying foul over the plot.
What Happened: Director James Gunn was announced <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/23/02/30678077/its-a-bird-its-a-plane-its-dc-comics-new-movies-tv-shows-announced">as the man behind </a>the "Superman" reboot years ago and the man tasked with helping turn DC Comics&#8217; film and TV strategy around.
Gunn's new superhero film is being called "woke" by actor Dean Cain, who famously played Superman in the TV show "Lois &amp; Clark" from 1993 to 1997.
"How woke is Hollywood going to make this character?" Cain told <a href="https://www.tmz.com/2025/07/09/superman-dean-cain-immigrant-controversy/">TMZ</a>. "How much is Disney going to change their Snow White? Why are they going to change their characters (to) exist for the times?"
Cain's comments, reported by <a href="https://variety.com/2025/film/news/dean-cain-superman-woke-maga-backlash-immigrant-1236451732/">Variety</a>, come after Gunn shared that Superman is an "immigrant that came from other places and populated the country" in the film, adding that the film represents "the story of America."
"For Superman, it was ‘truth, justice, and the American way.' Well, they dropped that…They came up with ‘truth, justice, and a better tomorrow.' Changing beloved characters I don't think is a great idea. If you want to create a new character go ahead and do that," Cain also said.
Cain went on to criticize America's immigration policies.
"There have to be limits, because we can't have everybody in the United States. We can't have everybody, society will fail. So there have to be limits."
Cain's not the only one speaking out about the film's plot line, in which Superman is portrayed as an immigrant.
Fox News recently referred to the film as "SuperWoke."
Fox News contributor Kellyanne Conway criticized the film&#8217;s plot line.
"We don't go to the movie theater to be lectured to and to have somebody throw their ideology onto us," Conway said.
Gunn has brushed off the criticism ahead of the film's July 11 release, telling Variety he doesn't have "anything to say to anybody" spreading hate about his film.
"I think this is a movie about kindness and I think that's something everyone can relate to," Gunn said.

Why It's Important: The potential boycott of the film by Republicans and public criticism from a former Superman actor could end up hurting the film's box office.
"I think it was a mistake by James Gunn to say it's an immigrant thing, and I think it's going to hurt the numbers on the movie," Cain said.
The film is expected to gross $120 million to $130 million domestically in its opening weekend, according to <a href="https://variety.com/2025/film/box-office/superman-box-office-opening-weekend-projection-1236448799/">Variety</a>. The studio has been more conservative with estimates saying it expects $100 million to $110 million.
Early positive reactions from critics and fans could also take the film past $140 million domestically, according to the report. On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an 82% rating from critics and a 96% rating from early viewers of the film.
The "Superman" film had a $225 million production budget and could also gross $100 million in international markets in its opening weekend.
The last standalone Superman film was "Man of Steel" in 2013. That film <a href="https://www.boxofficemojo.com/franchise/fr340233989/?ref_=bo_frs_table_6">grossed </a>$291.0 million domestically with an opening domestic weekend total of $116.6 million. The last film featuring Superman was Justice League, released in 2017, which grossed $229.0 million domestically and opened with $93.8 million.
The best recent Superman film performance is 2016's "Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice." That film grossed $330.4 million domestically and opened to a $166.0 million domestic total.
WBD Price Action: Warner Bros. Discovery shares were up 1.4% to $11.65 on Thursday versus a 52-week trading range of $6.64 to $12.76. Warner Bros. stock is up 9.3% year-to-date in 2025.

A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of 26.37 in the Building Products industry, Zurn Elkay Water Solns Inc. has a higher P/E ratio of 39.31. Shareholders might be inclined to think that Zurn Elkay Water Solns Inc. might perform better than its industry group. It's also possible that the stock is overvalued.

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.
