Increase to Share Repurchase Program
Wix's Board of Directors has authorized an increase to its program to repurchase the Company's securities (ordinary shares and/or convertible notes) by an additional amount of up to $200 million, on top of the $200 million previously approved by the Board on February 26th, 2025 (which has not been used to date). This approval brings the repurchase authorization under the program to a total amount of up to $400 million.

Financial Outlook
Healthy first quarter results demonstrate impactful product innovation and disciplined execution of our key growth initiatives, including Studio, AI and our focus empowering Self Creators. Notably, new cohort strength remains robust through April and early May against a dynamic macro backdrop. We expect new cohort strength to continue and drive top-line growth acceleration in 2H as additional cohorts layer on throughout the year.
While we are encouraged by our strong Q1 results and robust top of funnel, we are maintaining full year bookings outlook of $2,025 - 2,060 million, up 11-13% y/y. This reflects conservatism due to macro uncertainty, specifically in our Business Solutions segment, with potential volatility offset by fully dissipating FX headwinds.
With these same considerations, we are also maintaining our full year revenue outlook of $1,970 - 2,000 million, up 12-14% y/y.
We expect total revenue in Q2 2025 to be $485 - 489 million, up 11-12% y/y.
For the full year 2025, we continue to expect non-GAAP total gross margin of ~70% and non-GAAP operating expenses to be 47-48% of revenue for the full year.
We continue to expect to generate free cash flow of $590 - 610 million, or ~30-31% of revenue.
As a result, we remain on track to achieve Rule of 45 in 2025 at the high end of our outlook.

JPMorgan Chase &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) CEO Jamie Dimon, who correctly flagged trouble before the 2008 Lehman Brothers collapse, is now cautioning that Wall Street&#8217;s expectations for S&amp;P 500, tracked by SPDR S&amp;P 500 (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) earnings growth could plummet from 12% to 0% as tariff impacts ripple through the economy.
What Happened: &#8220;I think earnings estimates will come down, which means PE [Price-to-Earnings&nbsp;ratio] will come down,&#8221; Dimon said at the bank&#8217;s annual investor day, suggesting equity valuations face downward pressure. He described current asset prices as &#8220;kind of high&#8221; while credit spreads remain &#8220;kind of low.&#8221;
Hedge fund manager Dan Niles highlighted Dimon&#8217;s track record on X, noting, &#8220;Dimon warned of an economic &#8216;hurricane&#8217; in June of 2022 before the banking crisis in March of 2023.&#8221; Niles emphasized JPMorgan&#8217;s unique perspective, writing, &#8220;With $4.4 trillion in assets, JPM has more granular data on the health of the U.S. economy than almost anyone.&#8221;
&#8220;I continue to believe that the holidays will be a much rougher time for markets,&#8221; Niles wrote.

Why It Matters: Dimon&#8217;s concerns extend beyond earnings, as he warned of &#8220;huge deficits&#8221; and &#8220;almost complacent central banks.&#8221; He believes markets display &#8220;an extraordinary amount of complacency&#8221; despite <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/management/25/05/45508514/jpmorgan-ceo-jamie-dimon-warns-huge-deficits-complacent-central-banks-could-lead-to-stagflation">mounting risks from tariffs and geopolitical tensions</a>, putting the odds of stagflation at &#8220;roughly double&#8221; what markets anticipate.
Despite these warnings, Goldman Sachs recently raised its S&amp;P 500 12-month target to 6,500 while reducing recession odds to 35%, citing the Trump administration&#8217;s decision to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/05/45379707/sp-500-to-6500-goldman-sachs-trims-recession-odds-as-trump-backs-off-on-tariffs">pause retaliatory tariffs for 90 days</a>.
JPMorgan&#8217;s chief global strategist, David Kelly, maintains the U.S. economy will likely avoid recession but expects slower growth due to tariffs and other economic factors <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45485111/jpmorgan-chase-us-economy-likely-to-skirt-recession-forecasts-sluggish-growth">potentially squeezing consumer spending</a>.
Since taking the helm in 2005, Dimon has led JPMorgan to a total return of 1,012%, including dividends, surpassing the S&amp;P 500's 596% gain and even outpacing the Nasdaq's 971% rise.

Panama has introduced legislation that would allow citizens to freely buy, sell, and accept Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) nationwide, marking another significant step in the global adoption of cryptocurrencies.
What Happened: The bill follows Panama City Council&#8217;s recent move to accept Bitcoin, Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>), and stablecoins like USD Coin and Tether for taxes, fines, and fees, according to Bitcoin historian Pete Rizzo, who broke the news Monday on X.
This legislative push comes amid accelerating cryptocurrency adoption worldwide, fueled partially by U.S. President Donald Trump&#8216;s pro-crypto policies implemented since taking office in January.

Panama City&#8217;s earlier cryptocurrency initiative, spearheaded by Councilman Mayer Mizrachi, implemented a practical workaround for accepting digital <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/04/44843430/panama-city-council-now-accepts-bitcoin-ethereum-for-taxes-fines-fees">assets without requiring new legislation</a>. &#8220;Legally, public institutions must receive funds in dollars, so we partnered with a bank who will receive the crypto and convert it on the spot to USD,&#8221; Mizrachi said.

Why It Matters: The Trump administration has championed cryptocurrency adoption by establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve and appointing an AI and crypto czar. These actions have emboldened other nations to explore digital asset integration as Bitcoin recently tapped $107,000, just 2.51% <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45534460/bitcoin-taps-107000-again-ethereum-dogecoin-flat-analyst-predicts-next-bullish-breakout-will-power-btc-above-ath">shy of its all-time high</a>.
Market sentiment remains strong despite global economic uncertainties.

Panama Moves To Legalize Bitcoin Nationwide As Trump's Pro-Crypto Policies Fuel Global Adoption

Chamath Palihapitiya says the true dividend of college isn't a diploma but "culture."
What Happened: During the latest All-In podcast, the Social Capital founder told co-host David Friedberg, "My son is a rising junior and his entire focus is that he wants to go to an SEC school because of the culture."
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

Palihapitiya conceded his own mindset has flipped. "Two years ago I would&#8217;ve panicked … and now I&#8217;m like, that&#8217;s actually the best thing you could do," he said, adding that college is where young adults get "socially well-adjusted&#8221; and learn to &#8220;… deal with different kinds of failures." The billionaire framed college less as a career gatekeeper, more as years of structured experimentation.

Why It Matters: He's hardly alone in down-ranking credentials. Elon Musk has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/04/38319479/elon-musk-thinks-college-is-basically-for-fun-and-to-prove-that-you-can-do-your-chores-says-degr">long argued</a>, "college is basically for fun and to prove that you can do your chores," and calls mandatory degrees "absurd." PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel goes further, paying would-be scholars <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/12/42366606/peter-thiel-is-a-stanford-grad-but-thinks-college-is-such-a-waste-that-he-offers-100000-to-students-who-quit-compares-education-to-santa">$100,000 to drop out</a> because he "thinks college is such a waste."
Yet heavyweights still defend the classroom. According to <a href="https://time.com/3908338/bill-gates-college-grads/">an account</a> by TIME, Bill Gates — himself a Harvard dropout — maintains that graduates "are more likely to find a rewarding job, earn higher income, and even … live healthier lives," warning of an 11-million-worker shortfall without more degrees.
The debate lands as U.S. tuition tops $28,000 a year and surveys show half of employers no longer <a href="https://ssti.org/blog/bachelors-degrees-are-no-longer-required-many-jobs">require</a> four-year degrees. The ROI calculus is simple for Palihapitiya: classrooms teach facts, but tailgates teach life.

Chamath Palihapitiya Says He'd Send His Son To College Only For The Culture, 'The Best Thing You Could Do..'

The odds of the U.S. entering a recession in 2025 have plummeted sharply on prediction platforms, aided by a de-escalation in the U.S.-China trade conflict.
What happened: Wagers in favor of a contract titled "US recession in 2025?" <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/us-recession-in-2025">dropped</a> from a peak of 66% in early April to 39% currently on Polymarket, a Polygon (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">POL</a>)-based platform that allows users to bet using cryptocurrencies.&nbsp;
As of this writing, bookmakers have invested about $5.5 million on the bet. To resolve the outcome to &#8220;Yes,&#8221; the economy must record another quarter of negative growth or the National Bureau of Economic Research must declare a recession before January 1, 2026.
Similarly, recession odds on Kalshi, a federally authorized betting platform, were cut to 38% from 71%. Note that, unlike Kalshi, Polymarket is not <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/41838037/will-polymarket-return-to-the-us-after-getting-trump-victory-right-ceo-says-its-part-of-the-plan">available to U.S. residents</a> due to regulatory restrictions.

On Tuesday, Deepwater Asset Management's managing partner, Gene Munster, noted that Elon Musk's AI enterprise xAI's plans for a massive investment could result in Nvidia Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) as the biggest beneficiary.&nbsp;
What Happened: In a post on X, formerly Twitter, Munster highlighted Musk's revelation on CNBC that his AI company, xAI, plans to deploy 1 million GPUs near Memphis.
The majority of the 1 million GPUs expected to be deployed will come from Nvidia, with a smaller portion supplied by Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>), said Munster, adding that the estimated total cost of acquiring these chips could range between $30 billion and $40 billion.

Official Trump (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">TRUMP</a>) memecoin led the cryptocurrency gainers on Tuesday, defying the sideways trajectory of blue-chip coins.

TRUMP Soars 12% Ahead Of Gala Dinner—SEC Chair Paul Atkins Grilled On Memecoin, Justin Sun Link During Congressional Hearing

A recent post on X by Jim Cramer has sparked a flurry of discussions on social media, highlighting the CNBC host&#8217;s polarizing influence on the markets.
What Happened: On Tuesday, Cramer posted on X, congratulating his &#8220;partner&#8221; and fellow CNBC market news analyst, David Faber, following his recent interview with Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO, Elon Musk.
&#8220;Congratulations to my partner David Faber for his amazing interview with [Elon Musk],&#8221; Cramer wrote, and that would have been the end of it if not for his follow-up remark that ignited a wave of reactions online.

&#8220;I like that stock very much&#8230; (Tesla)&#8221; Cramer added, highlighting his bullish stance on the EV giant, which has experienced significant volatility in recent months.
<figure class="wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

Reactions from X users quickly followed, with greg, a popular influencer on the platform, offering a blunt reply, &#8220;it&#8217;s over,&#8221; while Hexdline quipped, &#8220;It has never been more over for Tesla than it is now.&#8221;

Others, such as Nova Real Invest, sarcastically praised Cramer's &#8220;golden touch,&#8221; reflecting a rather popular meme in financial circles that his endorsements often precede stock declines, fueled by his mixed track record over the past couple of years.

Why It Matters: Cramer&#8217;s picks are renowned for moving in the opposite direction, giving rise <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/23/04/32017123/john-oliver-joins-inverse-jim-cramer-craze-says-youd-live-50-years-after-cramer-predicts-y">to the popular meme</a> in financial circles and communities online, with even the likes of talk show host John Oliver joining in on the frenzy.
His reputation for market predictions that often miss the mark has become so well-known that it inspired the creation of the Inverse Cramer ETF by Tuttle Capital Management, designed to bet against his recommendations. The fund has since <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/specialty-etfs/24/01/36793492/exclusive-inverse-cramer-etf-shuts-down-how-the-magnificent-7-stocks-factor-in-and-a-broken-c">been shut down</a>.

Price Action: Shares of Tesla were up 0.51% on Tuesday, trading at $343.82 a share, and are largely flat after hours, trading up by 0.01%.

Jim Cramer Praises Elon Musk Interview, Endorses Tesla—Will His Call Age Well? Internet Says 'It's Over'

On Tuesday, at Alphabet Inc.'s (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>) Google I/O 2025, Sergey Brin admitted his past <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/03/31376205/what-went-wrong-with-google-glass-enterprise-inside-look-at-the-discontinued-ar-project">missteps with Google Glass</a>.
What Happened: During a surprise interview, Brin said that he "made a lot of mistakes with Google Glass," adding that he didn't know much about the consumer electronics supply chains or the difficulties involved in building smart glasses at a reasonable price point, <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/05/20/googles-sergey-brin-i-made-a-lot-of-mistakes-with-google-glass/">reported</a> TechCrunch.
Brin then said he is glad that the Sundar Pichai-led company is pursuing the product innovation again with "great partners who are helping us build this."
The Google co-founder also revealed that he's come out of retirement to actively work on Gemini efforts and has been helping the team with multiple projects, including the Veo 3 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42307366/googles-veo-video-generator-arrives-on-cloud-how-quora-and-mondelez-are-using-ai-for-creative-content">video model</a>.

"Anybody who's a computer scientist should not be retired right now," he stated, adding, "They should be working on AI."
Why It's Important: Google is now working with partners like Samsung Electronics Co. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SSNLF#OTC">SSNLF</a>) and Xreal Inc. and has decided to invest up to $150 million in eyewear brand Warby Parker Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WRBY#NYSE">WRBY</a>).
Earlier on Tuesday, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45509746/google-i-o-2025-a-big-deal-says-gene-munster-sundar-pichais-alphabet-has-no-choice-but-to-disrupt-itself-before-someone-else-does">at the I/O event</a>, Google and Xreal also unveiled Project Aura — the first eyewear to run Android XR. The Pichai-led company also said that it is partnering with Samsung on a separate smart glasses project and plans to release reference hardware later this year, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-05-20/xreal-and-google-debut-project-aura-ar-glasses-to-rival-meta-s-orion-glasses?srnd=undefined&amp;sref=9hGJlFio">reported</a> Bloomberg.

Xreal CEO Chi Xu said in an interview that Samsung's device is Google&#8217;s answer to Apple Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) Vision Pro. Similarly, Xreal's Android XR glasses aim to compete with Meta Platforms, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41084112/mark-zuckerberg-says-orion-is-probably-going-to-be-the-next-major-platform-after-phones-metas-new-ar">augmented reality glasses</a>.&nbsp;
Project Aura glasses are expected to launch between late 2025 and early 2026 and will be priced significantly lower than competitors like Meta and Samsung, likely under $600, the report noted, citing Xu.
Price Action: Alphabet Inc.'s Class A shares fell by 1.54% on Tuesday, with Class C shares down 1.52%. Apple shares slipped 0.92%, while Meta declined 0.52% during the same session, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

Sergey Brin Comes Out Of Retirement To Work On Gemini, Admits He Made A 'Lot Of Mistakes' With Google Glass As Alphabet Ramps Up To Compete With Meta And Apple

America's full retirement age (FRA) for claiming 100 percent of Social Security rises to 67 in 2025, capping a four-decade phase-in that permanently trims checks for anyone filing earlier and rewards those who delay until 70.
Workers who understand the new timetable and the penalties for jumping the gun can still lock in higher benefits despite warnings that the system's main trust fund could run short by 2033.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Why FRA Hit 67</h3>
The two-year age hike was baked into the Social Security Amendments of 1983, signed by President Ronald Reagan to shore up a program now paying nearly 74 million Americans. Beginning next year, every new retiree born in 1960 or later must reach 67 to collect an unreduced benefit. Those born in 1959 reach their FRA — 66 years, 10 months — in November.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Cost Of Claiming Early</h3>
You can still file at 62, but doing so slashes the monthly check by up to 30 percent. You get lower benefits if you claim before that retirement age. Every month you claim early, you get a reduction. Wait until 70 and delayed-retirement credits lift payments roughly 8 percent a year, pushing the maximum 2025 benefit above $5,100.

Enough With Protecting Those&#8230;&#8217;</a>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Medicare Still Turns On At 65</h3>
Turning 65 remains pivotal because it opens the Medicare door, a milestone that "is in many ways more important than the full retirement age," says Gal Wettstein of Boston College's Center for Retirement Research <a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2024/12/18/social-security-2025-retirement-age-benefits/77067663007/">tells</a> USA Today. Retirees who claim Social Security early yet exit the workforce before 65 must budget for private coverage until Medicare starts.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Planning Beyond 2025</h3>
Delaying even a few months can recoup thousands over a lifetime, advisors note, and online calculators at SSA.gov let users test break-even ages.

Social Security Full Retirement Age Shift Could See Your Check Chopped By 30% — What Everyone Born In 1960 Or Later Must Know

China has threatened legal action against any individual or organization assisting with or implementing U.S. semiconductor restrictions, escalating tensions in the ongoing tech rivalry between the world&#8217;s two largest economies.
What Happened: China&#8217;s commerce ministry said there could be &#8220;corresponding legal liabilities&#8221; for those involved in U.S. measures it characterized as &#8220;discriminatory restrictive measures&#8221; against Chinese firms, Reuters reported. 
The warning comes after the U.S. published guidance last week cautioning companies against using Ascend AI chips from Huawei Technologies.
The dispute highlights growing friction as both nations compete for dominance in advanced technology. Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) CEO Jensen Huang recently criticized U.S. chip export controls as &#8220;exactly wrong for America,&#8221; revealing his company wrote off $5.5 billion in inventory and lost <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45513246/nvidia-ceo-jensen-huang-says-chinese-ai-researchers-are-world-class-and-us-companies-are-hiring-a-whole-bunch-of-them">approximately $15 billion in sales</a> due to these restrictions.
&#8220;China&#8217;s doing fantastic, 50% of the world&#8217;s AI researchers are Chinese and you&#8217;re not going to hold them back,&#8221; Huang said at Computex 2025, arguing American companies should be allowed to compete in China to &#8220;offset the trade deficit.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The technology standoff has intensified since April, when China imposed retaliatory tariffs up to 125% on U.S.-made chips, while <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44770461/intel-on-slump-as-china-hits-us-made-chips-with-tariffs-amd-and-taiwan-semiconductor-rise-on-exemption-boost">exempting Taiwan-manufactured semiconductor</a>s.

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QCOM#NASDAQ">QCOM</a>) that outsource to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>).
Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) co-founder Bill Gates recently noted that export bans have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45342962/bill-gates-slams-trumps-tariffs-we-told-china-to-make-their-own-chips-and-theyre-making-great-progress-warns-its-a-bad-time-to-inte">only accelerated China&#8217;s self-reliance efforts</a>. &#8220;We made clear to them that they needed to make their own chips, and they&#8217;re making great progress on doing that,&#8221; Gates told CNN.
China&#8217;s ministry urged the U.S. to &#8220;abide by international economic and trade rules&#8221; and respect other countries&#8217; technological development rights.

What Happened: Bitcoin tapped $107,000 late evening before pulling back slightly to the $106,000 region. The apex cryptocurrency was just 2.51% shy of its all-time high of $109,114.88.
Ethereum dipped to $2,440 in the early morning but recouped the losses overnight.
May has been a success for these blue-chip currencies. While Bitcoin increased by more than 14% this month, Ethereum rebounded with a 40% gain following months of decline.
Over $212 million in upside bets were liquidated from the cryptocurrency market in the last 24 hours, while $90 million in shorts were erased.
About $557 million in Bitcoin shorts could be liquidated if the apex cryptocurrency rallies to $109,000.
Bitcoin&#8217;s Open Interest increased by 1.87% in the last 24 hours and by more than 10% in the last week to $74.48 billion, suggesting that fresh money was being injected into derivatives.
The market maintained the "Greed" sentiment, according to the Crypto Fear and Greed Index.

"Since April bottom, BTC has formed ascending channel and each time a breakout has happened to the upside," Carson stated. "First breakout pumped BTC above $93,000, the second breakout pumped BTC to $105,000 and the upcoming one will send BTC above its previous ATH."
