Haoxin Shares Halted On Circuit Breaker To The Upside

<p><strong>Donald Trump</strong> is expanding his crypto footprint with the development of a digital real estate game that sources say resembles a Monopoly-style experience, marking the latest addition to his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/04/44779915/trump-family-deepens-crypto-ties-with-nearly-1-billion-on-the-line">fast-growing suite of crypto ventures</a>.</p>
<p><strong>What Happened: </strong>The upcoming title is reportedly being developed by Trump associate <strong>Bill Zanker</strong> and aims to launch by late April, Fortune <a href="https://fortune.com/crypto/2025/04/15/trump-crypto-monopoly-bill-zanker-nfts-memecoin/">reported</a>, quoting two individuals familiar with the matter.</p>
<p>While a spokesperson for Zanker denied direct similarities to MONOPOLY GO!, they confirmed that a crypto-focused game is in the works. </p>
<p>"He is working on a game," said <strong>Kevin Mercuri</strong>, adding that any Monopoly comparison was "hearsay." </p>
<p>Hasbro, which owns the Monopoly brand, also said it has not licensed its IP to any Trump-affiliated crypto ventures.</p>
<p>The project follows Trump's growing involvement in digital assets, including NFT collections, a memecoin, the DeFi firm <strong><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/04/44749223/trump-affiliated-world-liberty-financial-denies-8-million-ethereum-sell-off-loss">World Liberty Financial</a></strong>, a stablecoin project, and a <strong>Bitcoin </strong>(CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) mining company co-owned by his sons, Eric and Donald Jr. </p>
<p>Sources say Zanker, who helped launch Trump's meme coin <strong>Trump</strong> (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">TRUMP</a>) and NFT line, is also behind this new crypto game, although specific blockchain integrations have not been disclosed.</p>
<p>In May 2024, Zanker reportedly approached Hasbro to reacquire rights to Trump: The Game, a Monopoly-inspired board game released in 1989. </p>
<p>The company no longer held the rights, sources said, and the plan to rebrand or reuse the original title didn't materialize.</p>

<p>Recent trademark filings by DTTM Operations, the entity managing Trump's intellectual property, suggest an expanded interest in virtual goods and crypto-related licensing, including NFTs and digital apparel.</p>
<p>However, Zanker's team declined to confirm whether these filings are connected to the upcoming game.</p>
<p>The push into crypto gaming comes as Trump takes a more proactive role in shaping U.S. crypto policy. </p>
<p>He's appointed a dedicated <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44209136/trumps-crypto-czar-david-sacks-reveals-us-government-missed-out-on-gains-of-over-17-billion-by-selling-bitcoin-early">AI and crypto adviser</a>, supported the creation of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/04/44816420/trump-administration-is-only-looking-to-accumulate-bitcoin-bo-hines-says">national digital asset reserve</a> and backed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/04/44759645/trump-signs-landmark-crypto-law-repeals-biden-era-irs-rule-targeting-defi-platforms">upcoming legislation</a>.</p>
<p>This has drawn scrutiny over possible conflicts of interest, particularly given the Trump Organization's direct investments in the sector.</p>
<p><strong>What&#8217;s NExt: Eric Trump</strong>, in a recent interview, defended the family&#8217;s crypto involvement. "This is something our family believes," he said. "It's something our family speaks about with our heart and soul."</p>
<p>Zanker, known for founding The Learning Annex and partnering with Trump on a co-authored book about success, reconnected with the former president in recent years to spearhead his digital ventures. </p>
<p>He's also linked to the Trump-themed meme coin project, FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT LLC, as listed on its certificate of formation.</p>

<p>While U.S. cannabis companies fight over dispensary licenses, banking reform and federal decriminalization, a quieter revolution is underway—one that's being seeded, quite literally, from across the Atlantic.</p>
<p>In basements and backyards from New York to Minnesota, U.S. homegrowers are buying more cannabis seeds than ever before. And many of those seeds aren't coming from California, Oregon or Colorado. They're coming from places like Barcelona and Amsterdam—courtesy of Europe's thriving, decades-old seed industry, <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/javierhasse/2025/01/20/how-european-cannabis-seed-companies-are-quietly-taking-over-the-us-market/">now taking over the American market</a>.</p>
<p>Among the most prolific players in this silent surge is <strong>Fast Buds,</strong> a Spanish-born cannabis genetics company that now ships more than 3 million seeds annually, one million of which are headed to the U.S. alone.</p>
<p>"The United States is our second-largest market, contributing around 30% of our global sales… Demand is spread coast to coast. Top states [include]: Ohio, Minnesota, Illinois, Virginia and New York," said <strong>Eugene Boukreev,</strong> head of marketing at Fast Buds, in an exclusive interview with Benzinga. "What sets the U.S. apart isn't just its size, but its remarkable consistency."</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Rise Of U.S. Homegrow</h3>
<p>More than 30 states now permit some form of home cultivation for medical or adult-use cannabis. As dispensary prices stay high and product quality fluctuates, more Americans are turning to grow tents, LED rigs and online seed orders to take control of their cannabis experience.</p>
<p>A major catalyst came in 2022 when the DEA clarified that cannabis seeds containing less than 0.3% delta-9 THC by dry weight fall under the definition of legal hemp—regardless of the strain or how the plant might grow once cultivated. Because seeds in their dormant state contain only trace, non-activated levels of THC, virtually all cannabis seeds meet the legal criteria for hemp, even if they come from high-THC cultivars. This federal clarification opened the floodgates for international seed banks to ship directly to U.S. customers without violating the Controlled Substances Act.</p>
<p>Fast Buds, launched in 2010 as a two-person operation, has capitalized on the moment. The company now employs over 100 people and operates global offices in Los Angeles, Barcelona, London, Bangkok and Prague. Its logistics network includes domestic fulfillment hubs in the U.S., E.U. and Asia.</p>
<p><strong><em>Also read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/25/04/44752007/latino-entrepreneurs-are-thriving-in-nycs-cannabis-market-heres-the-proof">Latino Entrepreneurs Are Thriving In NYC&#8217;s Cannabis Market—Here&#8217;s The Proof</a></em></strong></p>
<p>"By establishing fulfillment hubs in key regions, we're able to ship domestically—ensuring faster, safer and fully compliant delivery to our customers," Boukreev said.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Autoflowers: The Underdog Genetics Taking Over</h3>
<p>While many legacy growers swear by photoperiod strains—those that require strict light cycles to trigger flowering—Fast Buds built its reputation on a once-dismissed format: autoflowers.</p>
<p><figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><br />
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Fast Buds&#039; Top Cannabis Genetics" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/P2Ijd0vplrI?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</div>
<p></p></figure></p>
<p>Autoflowering cannabis plants bloom based on age, not light exposure. They're faster, hardier and easier to grow, traits that make them ideal for hobbyists, northern climates and those chasing multiple harvests per year. While they typically produce smaller yields than photoperiod strains—generally 20–30% less per plant—many growers see the trade-off as worth it for the speed and simplicity they offer.</p>
<p>"In the U.S., the shift toward autoflowers is accelerating, especially among hobbyists and pro growers chasing efficient extract yields," Boukreev noted.</p>
<p>According to Fast Buds, autoflowers capture up to 60% of the market in short-season regions like northern Europe and the northern U.S., while photoperiods still dominate in warmer climates.</p>
<p>The company recently introduced its first line of feminized photoperiods, but autoflowers remain its bestselling category. Its top five global strains—Strawberry Gorilla, Gorilla Cookies, Purple Lemonade, Lemon Cherry Cookies and Guava Auto—blend high potency with rich terpene profiles, checking the boxes for flavor-obsessed growers.</p>
<p>"The spotlight is shifting away from just THC levels," Boukreev said. "Growers and consumers alike are seeking out strains that deliver a memorable sensory experience."</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Direct-To-Consumer And The Power of First-Timers</h3>
<p>Fast Buds isn't just growing—it's evolving. A decade ago, 100% of its revenue came through distributors. Today, nearly 50% of its global sales come from direct-to-consumer orders, driven by a robust e-commerce platform and tailored logistics.</p>
<p>Each year, the company fulfills more than 87,000 direct orders, with customers typically purchasing 5 to 7 seeds per transaction. Incredibly, 70% of those buyers are first-timers, a signal that Fast Buds is expanding beyond veteran growers into a broader, lifestyle-focused audience.</p>
<p>"Our direct-to-consumer channel has become a cornerstone of our business," Boukreev told Benzinga. "At the same time, our B2B network remains strong, supporting over 1,500 retail partners worldwide, including 62 U.S. locations."</p>
<p>This hybrid model—deep community engagement with broad market reach—helps Fast Buds future-proof its operations while diversifying its revenue base.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">What's Next For Seeds?</h3>
<p>As the global cannabis market continues to mature, genetics are emerging as a high-value, often underappreciated vertical. Cultivars with distinct terpene profiles, unique aesthetics and balanced effects are gaining traction with connoisseurs and casual users.</p>
<p>That demand is especially evident in the U.S., where regulatory gridlock has slowed innovation in other sectors. While operators wait for banking access or interstate commerce, home growers are experimenting and spending.</p>
<p>"Today's consumers—especially daytime smokers—are looking for flavor, balance and a deeper, more curated experience," said Boukreev. "That's exactly where we're placing our focus: vibrant, terpene-rich, artisanal strains that bring character and complexity to the forefront. People are starting to explore terpene profiles the way wine lovers explore tasting notes—and we love that."</p>
<p>This trend mirrors broader shifts in global cannabis. In Germany, for instance, a new legalization framework went into effect in April 2024, allowing limited personal cultivation. Germany's medical cannabis prescriptions <a href="https://thedalesreport.com/cannabis/how-german-election-results-could-impact-cannabis/">rose</a> nearly 10x in one year, from 1.5 to nearly 10 metric tons—signaling rising demand for localized cultivation and reliable genetics.</p>
<p>Fast Buds has positioned itself to ride that wave, both in the U.S. and abroad. With global offices, flexible fulfillment and a growing base of loyal growers, the company may be quietly outpacing many flashier North American brands.</p>
<p>Because while the cannabis industry argues over headlines, seed companies are focused on something more enduring: the roots.</p>

<p>Deep-pocketed investors have adopted a bullish approach towards Uber Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>), and it's something market players shouldn't ignore. Our tracking of public options records at Benzinga unveiled this significant move today. The identity of these investors remains unknown, but such a substantial move in UBER usually suggests something big is about to happen.</p>
<p>We gleaned this information from our observations today when Benzinga's options scanner highlighted 26 extraordinary options activities for Uber Technologies. This level of activity is out of the ordinary.</p>
<p>The general mood among these heavyweight investors is divided, with 53% leaning bullish and 34% bearish. Among these notable options, 5 are puts, totaling $1,059,693, and 21 are calls, amounting to $3,097,768.</p>
<h3>Predicted Price Range</h3>
<p>After evaluating the trading volumes and Open Interest, it's evident that the major market movers are focusing on a price band between $60.0 and $90.0 for Uber Technologies, spanning the last three months.</p>

<p><strong>Chewy's</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHWY#NYSE">CHWY</a>) short percent of float has risen 3.7% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has <strong>12.16 million shares sold short</strong>, which is 7.01% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, <strong>it would take traders 1.75 days to cover their short positions on average.</strong></p>
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
<p>Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.</p>
<p>Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.</p>
<p><strong>See Also:</strong> <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/short-interest?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage"><strong>List of the most shorted stocks</strong></a></p>

<p>As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Chewy has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.</p>
<h3>Comparing Chewy's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
<p>Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.</p>
<p>According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Chewy's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 13.38%, which means the company has <strong>less</strong> short interest than most of its peers.</p>
<p>Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be <strong>bullish</strong> for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage"><strong>This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</strong></a></p>

<h3>Banner P/E Ratio Analysis in Relation to Industry Peers</h3>

It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. 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.

This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. </p>

<p>In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes. </p>
