Shares of professional service companies are trading higher after Donald Trump won the 2024 presidential election.

Valve Corporation has rolled out a new game recording feature on Steam, allowing players to easily capture, replay, and share gameplay directly from their PC or <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/gaming">Steam Deck. </a>
This built-in system, which has moved from beta testing to a full release, offers users streamlined tools to document and save their gaming moments without relying on external software, <a href="https://www.steamdeck.com/en/news">according</a> to a blog post.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">New Recording Features On Steam</h3>
The game recording tool introduces a "Background Recording" mode, which automatically saves gameplay footage to the user's chosen storage drive while respecting set duration and storage limits.

For players who want more control, an "on-demand" option enables manual start and stop functionality, letting them record specific gameplay segments.
Another feature, called "Timeline," adds event markers to gameplay recordings, allowing users to quickly find key moments. For games with "Timeline-enhanced" capabilities, markers will automatically appear whenever significant events, such as Steam achievements or screenshots, occur. This makes it easier for players to organize and edit their gameplay clips before sharing them.
With this update, Steam Deck users now have a native option to record and share gameplay directly from the handheld device. 
This addition aligns with Valve's aim to position the Steam Deck as a versatile platform, providing users with more of the same features they might expect on a traditional gaming console.

Fortinet Gears Up For Q3 Earnings As Cyber Demand Drives Momentum

An &#8220;everything rally&#8221; powered Wall Street on Wednesday after the 2024 election results, with Donald Trump emerging as the clear presidential winner. The Republican Party reclaimed control of the Senate, while the House of Representatives leans Republican <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/41778433/s-p-500-dow-hit-record-highs-after-trump-win-fear-index-drops-20">but remains undecided.</a>
The major U.S. equity indices – the S&amp;P 500, Dow Jones Industrial Average, and Nasdaq 100 – surged to record highs in early trading, as investor optimism grew on expectations of more favorable tax policies. 
The S&amp;P 500, Nasdaq, and Dow posted gains of 2.3%, 2.4%, and 3.3%, respectively.
However, the real standouts were small caps and bank stocks, with investors turning to domestic businesses and U.S. banks in anticipation of potential tariff protections and further financial deregulation. 
The Russell 2000 jumped 5.5%, marking its largest single-day increase in two years. 
Large-cap bank stocks climbed 6%, while regional banks tracked by the SPDR S&amp;P Regional Banking ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KRE#NYSE">KRE</a>) soared 13%—both seeing their biggest one-day gains since November 2020, when the first COVID-19 vaccine was announced.
Clean energy stocks were among the day's worst performers, with the Invesco Solar ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TAN#NYSE">TAN</a>) plunging 11% for its steepest drop since March 2020, as investors braced for potential rollbacks on green initiatives under the Trump administration.
In the foreign exchange market, the U.S. dollar initially rallied nearly 2% before paring gains to 1.4% as traders awaited a Federal Reserve interest rate cut on Thursday.
Treasury yields spiked as expectations rose for larger budget deficits under Republican fiscal policies and higher inflation due to potential tariffs. The 10-year Treasury yield climbed 14 basis points to 4.41%, reaching a four-month high.

Trump's Win Sends Indices To Record Highs; Financials, Small Caps Surge, Bitcoin Tops $75,000: What's Driving Markets Wednesday?

ViaSat Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VSAT#NASDAQ">VSAT</a>) shares are sitting on the sidelines Wednesday while the broader market rallies. The muted price action may be partly due to The Bear Cave&#8217;s<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/short-sellers"> latest short report</a>.
What To Know: Short-selling firm The Bear Cave has published a new report suggesting Elon Musk&#8217;s SpaceX is eating ViaSat&#8217;s lunch.
&#8220;The Bear Cave believes new competition led by SpaceX's Starlink is stealing share from Viasat's key markets and will continue to grow at Viasat's expense,&#8221; the short seller<a href="https://thebearcave.substack.com/p/problems-at-viasat-vsat"> said</a>. 
Benzinga has reached out to ViaSat for comment on the report. 
The Bear Cave expects Donald Trump&#8217;s return to the White House to further increase competitive pressure from SpaceX on its business given Musk&#8217;s support of Trump throughout his campaign.
The short seller noted that SpaceX&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/starlink">Starlink</a> offers a collection of low-orbit satellites that can provide connectivity with greater bandwidth and lower latency than traditional solutions like ViaSat. 
&#8220;Based on the collective reviews of customers, employees, and engineers,&nbsp;The Bear Cave concludes Viasat is a dead company walking,&#8221; The Bear Cave said. 
The Bear Cave went on to highlight specific commentary from customers, suggesting many are switching to Starlink. He also pointed to the company&#8217;s most recent subscriber base total of 257,000, down from around 600,000 in 2020.
&#8220;Based on consumer reviews, The Bear Cave expects that base to dwindle further,&#8221; the short seller said. 
VSAT Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/qupte/vsat">ViaSat shares</a> were down 1.05% at $10.39 at the time of publication, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>. The company is set to report earnings after the market close Wednesday.

'Dead Company Walking': Short Seller Sets Sights On ViaSat, Expects Elon Musk's Starlink To Take Share After Trump Win

Rivian Automotive, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>) and Lucid Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LCID#NASDAQ">LCID</a>) shares are down sharply on Wednesday following the election of Donald Trump as the 47th president of the U.S. Here's a look at how Trump's policy could <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41460886/rivian-analyst-cuts-estimates-on-demand-concerns-warns-softer-production-delivery-t">affect the electric vehicle makers.</a>&nbsp;
What To Know: Trump has largely condemned EVs, claiming they are<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39854007/trump-says-he-will-end-the-electric-vehicle-mandate-on-day-one-days-after-tesla-ceo-elon-musks-endor"> being forced </a>on consumers through unfair regulations, and has pledged to end what he calls "the electric vehicle mandate."&nbsp;
Trump has specifically said he plans <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39854007/trump-says-he-will-end-the-electric-vehicle-mandate-on-day-one-days-after-tesla-ceo-elon-musks-endor">to eliminate</a> many EV incentives included in the Biden administration's Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), including purchase rebates and tax incentives. He also has said he plans to modify or end vehicle emissions standards under the Environmental Protection Agency.&nbsp;&nbsp;

EV start-ups such as Lucid and Rivian already face decreasing consumer demand for electric vehicles and Wedbush analysts see the Trump presidency as another challenge for carmakers.
"We believe a Trump presidency would be an overall negative for the EV industry as likely the EV rebates/tax incentives get pulled," the Wedbush analysts wrote.
Rivian announced plans for a new more affordable model, the R2, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40282895/rivian-kicks-off-months-long-promotional-roadshow-with-upcoming-r2-suv-r3x-crossover">set to launch </a>in 2026. The R2 was set to be priced beneath limits to qualify for the full $7,500 federal tax credit. Trump&#8217;s planned elimination of the tax credit could potentially disrupt these plans.
Trump has also proposed a universal 10% tariff on imports and a 60% tariff on imports from China which could affect Rivian and Lucid's supply chains and production costs, potentially leading to higher vehicle prices or reduced profit margins. Neither Rivian nor Lucid has yet to turn a profit and reduced profit margins would<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40574576/rivian-or-lucid-which-of-the-two-loss-making-ev-startups-is-solving-cash-burn"> push the road</a> to profitability out further.&nbsp;
While Rivian and Lucid stock is down, Telsa Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) stock is soaring. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/11/41781921/what-does-trumps-victory-mean-for-ev-giant-tesla-and-the-big-3-automakers">Unlike the other two companie</a>s, it should have the size and scale to absorb potential policy changes. 
RIVN, LCID Price Action: According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">Benzinga Pro,</a> Rivian shares are down 9.02% at $9.64 and Lucid shares are down 5.94% at $2.12 at the time of publication Wednesday.&nbsp;
