This term describes the wage gap and missed career opportunities mothers face due to child care and at-home responsibilities.&nbsp;

</ul>
Recent data from CNBC shows that working moms in the U.S. lose around $20,000 annually in potential wages due to child care obligations, highlighting a significant financial impact on many families.
Despite increasing education levels and workforce participation, studies show that women are more likely than men to reduce their hours or temporarily leave their jobs to handle <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/09/40791626/maybe-grandma-and-grandpa-want-to-help-out-a-little-bit-more-j-d-vances-childcare-comment-trigge">child care</a>. According to data from the Federal Reserve, this trend is particularly noticeable for women in their 30s and 40s. Although women in this age group account for about 46% of the total U.S. workforce, their employment rate slightly lags behind their male counterparts, largely because of caregiving demands.
Trending: Warren Buffett once said, "If you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die." <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/connect-invest-real-estate-notes">These high-yield real estate notes that pay 7.5% &#8211; 9% make earning passive income easier than ever.</a>
The economic consequence of this is not small. According to the National Women&#8217;s Law Center, working mothers earn 71 cents for every dollar fathers make. Even those working full-time and year-round experience this wage disparity, showing that many never fully recover from the time they spend away from work due to familial duties. For many mothers, resuming their careers often means starting back at a lower pay grade or losing out on opportunities for advancement, resulting in a long-term income gap.
The pandemic made this worse, with schools and child care facilities closed. Many women had to reevaluate their <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/10/41231722/kevin-oleary-says-theres-no-worklife-balance-for-new-entrepreneurs-as-guys-in-mumbai-or-shanghai-wor">work-life balance</a> and even though work-from-home opportunities were far more popular, that didn't lessen the household burden for many mothers.&nbsp;
Trending: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/100k-cd">$100K Sitting In A CD Account, Should I Move Money Into The Stock Market?</a>
McKinsey &amp; Company reported that four in 10 partnered women say they handle most or all of the household responsibilities, a trend that has grown since 2016. By contrast, more men say they have an equal share of at-home responsibilities, suggesting a gap in how men and women perceive their roles in the home.&nbsp;
It's not just mothers who are primary caregivers that face this responsibility of taking on more home-related duties. Studies show that even when women are the main income earners, they still shoulder more household duties. One study found that 37% of partnered women feel the need to prioritize their partner&#8217;s career over their own. This is often attributed to their partner earning more or ingrained societal expectations. This imbalance can stall women's career growth and compound financial losses.

Efforts are underway to address these challenges. Some companies are exploring options such as flexible schedules, child care support and paid family leave policies, which may help reduce the financial impact on working mothers. Additionally, many households are reevaluating traditional roles, with some men, particularly those with higher incomes, choosing to scale back at work to assist with child care.
McKinsey &amp; Company states that companies should take certain steps to aid in these efforts to create a more equitable workplace for women and working mothers. These include:&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Debiasing hiring and promotions processes</li>
<li>Inspiring and equipment employees to curb bias and practice allyship</li>
<li>Unlocking the power of managers to influence careers and team culture</li>
</ul>
Although these changes offer hope, many mothers face an uphill battle balancing work and family responsibilities. Until <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/10/41602038/new-report-reveals-62-of-u-s-retirees-leave-the-workforce-sooner-than-expected-and-people-are-no">caregiving responsibilities</a> are more equitably shared and until workplace policies better support parents, the motherhood penalty will likely continue to be a significant factor in the wage gap between men and women.

Looking Into SS&C Techs Hldgs's Recent Short Interest

AVBP

ArriVent BioPharma shares are trading lower. The company reported Q3 financial results.

SLRN

Acelyrin shares are trading lower. The company reported Q3 financial results.

With Republicans taking control of Congress, Wall Street is buzzing about a potential boom in mergers and acquisitions (M&amp;A) under the upcoming<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump"> Trump administration.</a>
Bank of America analysts see brighter days ahead for deal-making, anticipating that Trump could remove Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan, whose aggressive antitrust stance has been a major roadblock for M&amp;A activity across sectors.
Combined with favorable macro factors and investor demand for capex and M&amp;A over debt paydown, there are plenty of reasons to believe that 2025 and beyond could see significant deal activity.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Banks And Biotech: Two Key Sectors To Watch</h3>
Analysts at Bank of America's U.S. banks team are particularly bullish about the M&amp;A prospects for financials, which have historically enjoyed more than 50% higher deal activity under Republican administrations than Democratic ones. With regulatory scrutiny expected to loosen, the landscape is ripe for a surge in bank deals.
Deal activity in biotech has already started picking up, especially in smaller acquisitions. Big Pharma faces mounting pressure to offset patent expirations, so it&#8217;s hunting for acquisition targets to replenish its drug pipelines. Lower rates and potential deregulation could further fuel biotech M&amp;A as we head into 2025.
"The election results could lead to a less restrictive regulatory environment, which may open the door for more bank mergers and acquisitions,&#8221; Jill Carey Hall, CFA, a Bank of America analyst, said. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Macro Factors: Green And Yellow Lights for M&amp;A</h3>
Several macroeconomic factors support a cyclical pick-up in M&amp;A activity. 
Strong equity market returns, cheap small-cap valuations relative to large caps and tight credit spreads all suggest a favorable environment for deal-making.
Not all signals are flashing green. Slowing GDP growth, rate uncertainty and high volatility could throw some caution flags. Long-term growth expectations for small caps, though improved, still remain below average.
Bank of America's credit strategists predict that 2025 could be a better year for M&amp;A activity as rate cuts begin to materialize and volatility subsides. 
"Sponsors are sitting on a pile of uncalled capital, and there's a real incentive to deploy it in a friendlier economic environment," Hall said.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Who Stands To Gain: Small-Cap Targets, Large-Cap Acquirers</h3>
With large deals on the decline, smaller targets have become the prime candidates for takeovers. 
Aggregate deal value has been falling in recent years as mega-cap deals have dried up and smaller, more manageable transactions have become the norm.
This trend has paid off for both sides: small-cap targets have outperformed post-announcement and large-cap acquirers have seen record one-day gains in 2023 despite paying higher deal premiums.
This pattern suggests that investors are rewarding companies that buy growth, especially in today's uncertain economic landscape.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">10 Potential M&amp;A Candidates Among Large Caps</h3>
Bank of America's latest screening of potential M&amp;A candidates includes high-growth, undervalued names, each with distinct value propositions that may appeal to suitors looking for long-term growth.

MiMedx Group shares are trading higher after the company provided updates on local coverage determinations.

Ovintiv Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OVV#NYSE">OVV</a>) shares are trading higher after the company inked a definitive purchase agreement to acquire certain&nbsp;Montney&nbsp;assets from Paramount Resources Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PRMRF#OTC">PRMRF</a>), in an all-cash transaction valued at <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/n41966088/ovintiv-strengthens-portfolio-with-core-oil-rich-montney-asset-acquisition" rel="noreferrer noopener">around $2.377 billion&nbsp;(C$3.325 billion)</a>.
Post closure, the acquisition is expected to add about 70 MBOE/d of production (approximately 25 Mbbls/d of oil and condensate), 900 net 10,000 foot equivalent well locations, and approximately 109,000 net acres (approximately 80% undeveloped), in the core of the oil-rich Alberta Montney.
The assets are strategically located near the company&#8217;s current operations and have access to midstream infrastructure with available capacity.
Apart from this, Ovintiv agreed to sell nearly all of its Uinta Basin assets in Utah to FourPoint Resources, LLC, for around $2.0 billion in cash.
Both transactions are anticipated to close by the end of the first quarter of 2025, pending customary closing conditions and adjustments.
Together, these transactions are projected to boost Ovintiv&#8217;s 2025 non-GAAP free cash flow by about $300 million, raising 2025 free cash flow per share by approximately <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">20% over prior expectations</a>.
Following the transactions, Ovintiv will operate three rigs in Montney, five in Permian, and one to two in Anadarko, allocating 85%-90% of its 2025 capital to Permian and Montney.
Synergies: The combined transactions are projected to yield annual cost synergies of about $125 million through well cost savings, overhead reductions, and Canadian cash tax benefits.
Ovintiv expects per well cost savings of over $1.5 million on the acquired assets, aligning with its current Montney well costs of approximately $550 per foot due to operational efficiencies and scale advantages.
Buyback Paused: Ovintiv has temporarily paused its share buyback program to recover approximately $377 million borrowed for the Montney asset purchase, representing the net difference after the Uinta assets sale.
The company has allocated roughly $181 million from the buyback pause to debt reduction in the fourth quarter.
Ovintiv anticipates resuming buybacks in the second quarter of 2025 and has paused further acquisitions until then. The base dividend is expected to remain unchanged.
Outlook: The company projects 2025 oil and condensate production at 205 Mbbls/d and total production at 620 MBOE/d, with capital spending of $2.2 billion, $100 million below prior estimates.
As of&nbsp;October 31, the company&#8217;s non-GAAP net debt was&nbsp;$5.65 billion.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via Invesco Energy Exploration &amp; Production ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PXE#NYSE">PXE</a>) and Texas Capital Funds Trust Texas Capital Texas Oil Index ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OILT#NYSE">OILT</a>).
Price Action: OVV shares are up 3.55% at $43.71 at the last check Thursday.

General Aerospace (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GE#NYSE">GE</a>) shares have climbed this month amid overall market strength following Donald Trump's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/11/41772701/trumps-historic-return-7-ways-his-second-term-could-impact-the-us-economy">presidential election win</a>, as investors foresee potential policy changes that could benefit the industrial conglomerate's diverse portfolio, particularly in aviation, defense and energy.
Trump's proposed increase in defense spending could create growth opportunities for GE's aerospace and defense segments, where the company manufactures engines and advanced technologies for both military and commercial aircraft. 
A boost in defense budgets could lead to new contracts and expanded production, enhancing revenues for GE's aviation division, one of its most profitable arms.

What To Know: Trump's focus on U.S. infrastructure investment, including modernizing the country's transportation, energy and digital networks, aligns well with GE's capabilities. During his campaign, Trump proposed a substantial infrastructure spending plan targeting upgrades to roads, bridges and electrical grids. 
If implemented, this spending could fuel demand for GE's power generation and renewable energy technologies, as well as its industrial automation solutions. 
GE's experience in power equipment, renewable energy solutions, and grid modernization positions the company to capitalize on federal investments aimed at upgrading and securing the country's energy infrastructure.

What Else: Additionally, Trump's stance on reducing regulatory hurdles for industries like manufacturing and energy could ease operational challenges for GE. 
Regulatory rollbacks in environmental compliance and energy production could lower costs for GE's energy businesses, making it easier to develop and deploy gas turbines and other energy solutions with fewer restrictions and associated costs. 
Furthermore, Trump's pro-business tax policies could result in financial benefits for GE, enabling the company to retain more earnings for reinvestment in R&amp;D, technological innovation and potential debt reduction.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy GE Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in GE&#8217;s case, it is in the Industrials sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, GE has a 52-week high of $194.80 and a 52-week low of $92.17.
