Bill Gates, the co-founder of Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and a tech industry titan, recently announced plans to give away 99% of his wealth by 2045, but not everyone is convinced.&nbsp;
The billionaire, who became the world's youngest <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/12/42419457/bill-gates-billionaire-success-was-fueled-by-a-crucial-childhood-habit-thats-nearly-extinct-today-heres-why-thats-a-problem">self-made billionaire</a> at age 31 in 1987 and the first centibillionaire in 1999, currently holds a net worth of $113 billion, making him the 13th-richest person in the world, according to Forbes.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Billionaire&#8217;s Bold Promise</h2>
The 69-year-old philanthropist outlined his latest giving pledge in a <a href="https://www.gatesnotes.com/home/home-page-topic/reader/n20-years-to-give-away-virtually-all-my-wealth">blog post</a>, declaring that his Bill &amp; Melinda Gates Foundation will <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45286464/bill-gates-commits-99-of-his-remaining-fortune-to-gates-foundation-set-to-wind-down-in-20-years-somebody-should-give-more-money-than-i-did">wind down its operations by 2045</a>, aiming to donate another $200 billion in that time.&nbsp;
Gates, who once held the title of the world's richest person for 18 of 24 years between 1995 and 2017, said he does not want to be remembered as someone who "died rich."

Trending: The team behind $6B+ in licensing deals is now building the next billion-dollar IP empire — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/elf-labs-ym?v=123">invest early at $2.25/share.</a>
However, the response online has been mixed. Popular YouTuber Stephen Findeisen, better known as Coffeezilla, was among those expressing doubt, <a href="https://x.com/coffeebreak_YT/status/1920723618482327789">posting on X</a>, "I've been hearing this for 15 years and every year Bill has more." The post got a lot of similar responses, with some questioning if Gates&#8217; promise is about real giving or just maintaining influence.
"They're likely just putting it into a trust and then ‘giving it away' over the course of 50-100 years," one commenter, Sam Tayyari, <a href="https://x.com/samtayyari/status/1920724915323306365">suggested</a>, adding that many charities "spend a lot on ‘administrative costs' like private jetting to give a 10 min speech while staying in $10k/night resorts."
Others pointed out that even giving away 99% of his fortune would still leave Gates a billionaire, with one user <a href="https://x.com/im_deiting/status/1920724966871314829">noting</a>, "1% of $200 billion is $2 billion. That&#8217;s a lot of money too."
Critics also drew comparisons to other wealthy figures, like George Soros, who have faced similar skepticism about their charitable efforts. One commenter <a href="https://x.com/Mountain_Texan/status/1920724460199412109">argued</a>, "It's meaningless anyway. He's going to ‘give it away' in the same way Soros gave his money away. He's purchasing influence, not giving money away."

Gates, who has said he was inspired by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/05/45240439/ive-made-no-sacrifice-warren-buffett-has-given-away-60-billion-but-says-giving-time-is-more-admirable-ive-done-little-of-that">philanthropists like Warren Buffett</a> and 19th-century industrialist Andrew Carnegie, acknowledged that his approach to giving is about urgency.&nbsp;
In a recent BBC <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cx2e87lzqkdo">interview</a>, he said, "It's really about the urgency. We can spend a lot more if we're not trying to be perpetual, and I know that the spending will be in line with my values."
According to Gates, the foundation has already distributed $100 billion for health and development projects and plans to spend another $200 billion in the coming decades, depending on markets and inflation. However, critics argue that the true impact of these donations can be difficult to measure, given the scale of his wealth and the complex structures often used in philanthropy.
Despite the skepticism, Gates remains committed to his vision, saying in his blog post, "People will say a lot of things about me when I die, but I am determined that ‘he died rich' will not be one of them."

Trader Notes: Altcoin Sherpa remains bullish on Bitcoin long-term but warns of a likely pullback in the short term, though the timing and depth remain unclear.

Voicing a similar opinion, Sherpa <a href="https://x.com/AltcoinSherpa/status/1921973201770332279">advised</a> that if anyone is looking to buy Bitcoin for long-term positions and aren&#8217;t very active, it&#8217;s probably best to wait for a dip, potentially to the low to mid $90,000s.
ShardiB2 <a href="https://x.com/ShardiB2/status/1921979353820225736">points </a>to $103,400 as a critical daily close level. A close above would invalidate a potential local top, but advises caution for longs at current levels, noting higher time frame signals are more reliable. 
Meanwhile, Kaleo speculates whether Bitcoin is positioning itself for a massive upside scenario, potentially spiking to $520,000 in the longer term.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Slip While XRP Holds Firm: Is A Pullback Coming?

Shares of Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) soared 8.1% to $208.68 Monday afternoon after the U.S. and China <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45355655/magnificent-seven-gain-700b-after-us-china-slash-tariffs-gold-crashes-whats-driving-markets-monday">announced</a> a temporary easing of tariffs, marking a significant step toward de-escalating long-standing trade tensions. The move lifted investor sentiment across sectors and boosted shares of companies heavily reliant on global supply chains.
What To Know: Amazon stands to benefit directly from the tariff reprieve. As one of the world's largest e-commerce and cloud services companies, Amazon is deeply integrated with global manufacturing, particularly in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45348699/us-listed-chinese-stocks-rally-as-countries-agree-to-ease-import-tariffs">China</a>.

Many of the products sold on Amazon's marketplace—including electronics, consumer goods and private-label brands—are sourced or assembled in Chinese factories. Lower import tariffs reduce the company's cost of goods sold, improving profit margins across its retail segment.
Additionally, Amazon Web Services could gain ground in international markets amid improving geopolitical relations, as fewer regulatory frictions may ease data localization pressures and expand enterprise cloud adoption in Asia.
Beyond its direct exposure, Amazon's stock rise also reflects <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45347089/wall-street-rips-higher-as-tariff-truce-halts-us-china-economic-escalation">broader bullish sentiment</a> in tech during Monday&#8217;s session. With global supply chains potentially stabilizing and trade risk easing, investors could be pricing in stronger revenue growth, improved logistics and greater consumer confidence heading into the second half of the year.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy AMZN 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 Amazon&#8217;s case, it is in the Consumer Discretionary 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 <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, AMZN has a 52-week high of $242.52 and a 52-week low of $151.61.

Goldman Sachs analyst Michael Ng <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/PARA/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">remained Not Rated</a> on Paramount Global (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARA#NASDAQ">PARA</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARAA#NASDAQ">PARAA</a>) on Friday.
Revenue of $7.19 billion beat Ng and consensus estimate of $7.04 billion and $7.1 billion.
Adjusted OIBDA of $688 million beat $652 million and $666 million Ng and consensus estimate driven by a broad-based beat across DTC, TV Media, and Film.

TV Media advertising was flat on an underlying basis on Super Bowl comps, helped by strong sports programming like March Madness and the NFL Playoffs.
Like Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBD#NASDAQ">WBD</a>), advertising outperformed, and there has been limited discernible impact from macro uncertainty, Ng noted.
DTC advertising declined 1% on an underlying basis on Super Bowl comps, which should continue throughout 2025, driven by growing industry AVOD supply (e.g., Amazon.Com Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/amzn#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>)) as per the analyst.
The analyst remarked that Paramount expects the proposed Skydance acquisition to close in the first half of 2025. Free cash flow of $123 million beat the analyst&#8217;s estimate of $69 million and $13 million.
DTC revenue of $2.04 billion missed the consensus estimates of $2.1 billion and $2.09 billion, with OIBDA of $(109) million above the analyst and the consensus estimates of $(128) million and $(153) million. Paramount+ subscribers increased to 79.0 million (versus Ng&#8217;s estimate of 78.6 million), and global Paramount+ revenue grew 16% (versus Ng&#8217;s estimate of +12%).
TV Media revenue of $4.54 billion beat Ng and consensus estimate of $4.39 billion and $4.43 billion, with OIBDA of $922 million beating Ng estimate of $904 million but missing consensus of $951 million.
Filmed Entertainment revenue of $627 million was above Ng and consensus estimate of $575 million and $610 million, with OIBDA of $20 million beating Ng and consensus estimate of $13 million and $17 million.
Paramount introduced second-quarter guidance including subscriber decline at Paramount+ due to content seasonality and termination of an international bundle, Paramount+ ARPU growth to accelerate off first-quarter 2025, TV Media affiliate revenue decline rates to see similar underlying trends versus first-quarter 2025, TV Media advertising to see similar underlying trends versus first-quarter 2025 in digital while deceleration in linear, OIBDA loss in Studios driven by costs associated with the release of Mission Impossible &#8211; The Final Reckoning and free cash flow to Mirror last year.
Paramount reiterated 2025 guidance, including OIBDA, which will modestly decline, including impacts from the Super Bowl, free cash flow, which will increase, including 2024 Super Bowl and political advertising impacts, and domestic profitability for Paramount+.
The analyst projects fiscal 2025 revenue of $28.7 billion and adjusted EPS of $0.81.
Price Action:&nbsp;PARA stock is up 0.50% by $12.00 at last check Monday.

Uncovering Potential: Intellinetics's Earnings Preview

Artificial intelligence has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/05/45338301/zuckerberg-foresees-tech-industry-revolution-with-ai-an-ai-that-can-effectively-be-a-sort-of-midlevel-engineer">captured the imagination</a> of virtually every company in the tech world as the technology rapidly becomes more powerful. Perplexity, an AI startup and a potential threat to Alphabet Inc&#8216;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, was valued at $14 billion in its latest funding round.
What Happened: The company is in advanced talks with venture-capital firm Accel for a $500 million funding round that places the San Francisco-based company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44865115/figure-ai-shakes-silicon-valley-with-39-5b-valuation-200000-robots-promised-by-2029-beating-out-spacex-and-openai">among the most valuable</a> AI startups, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai-startup-perplexitys-valuation-surges-to-14-billion-in-fresh-funding-round-26124482?msockid=21c662101c496b42343370ae1de86aaa">according</a> to The Wall Street Journal.
The company was valued at $9 billion in November 2024, representing an over 50% increase in valuation in the past six months. However, the $14 billion figure falls under the start-up&#8217;s desired $18 billion valuation in March, <a href="https://x.com/haydenfield/status/1921981248857084190">according</a> to CNBC&#8217;s Hayden Field.
Jeff Bezos and Japan&#8217;s SoftBank Group are among Perplexity&#8217;s past investors, according to Reuters.
Why it Matters: Perplexity is a search engine that delivers answers to any question by searching the web and compiling information from multiple sources. Unlike traditional search engines, it provides inline citations, allowing users to verify facts easily. Despite some enthusiasm, Perplexity faces many hurdles, including high infrastructure costs and concerns over the legality of its content.
Several reports have likened Perplexity to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45311557/gene-munster-warns-googles-search-grip-is-slipping-as-chatgpt-alters-user-behavior-doj-turns-up-the-heat">rival of Google</a> as the latter experiences <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45339953/apple-exec-says-iphone-users-are-ditching-google-search-now-chamath-palihaptiya-urges-the-tech-giant-to-stop-waiting-for-data-and-start-fighting-models-like-chatgpt">stagnant search query</a> growth. While the Mountain View, California-based company still maintains a dominant industry position with its search business, its market share sits at its lowest in decades.
OpenAI was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44580172/openai-finalizes-historic-40-billion-funding-round-valuing-company-at-300-billion-with-backing-from-softbank-and-microsoft">valued at $300 billion</a> in an April funding round.

A Peek at Quoin Pharmaceuticals's Future Earnings

Last Wednesday, NeuroSense Therapeutics Ltd. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NRSN#NASDAQ">NRSN</a>) said it scaled up its production of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care" rel="noreferrer noopener">PrimeC to a commercial scale</a>.
PrimeC, NeuroSense&#8217;s lead drug candidate, is a novel extended-release oral formulation with a unique fixed-dose combination of two FDA-approved drugs: ciprofloxacin and celecoxib for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a neurodegenerative disease.
NeuroSense said it bolstered its supply chain by implementing comprehensive Chemistry, Manufacturing, and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/n45251140/neurosense-therapeutics-announces-successful-completion-of-commercial-manufacturing-scale-up-for-p" rel="noreferrer noopener">Controls (CMC) enhancements</a>.
Additionally, the company partnered with a global contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) that currently manufactures PrimeC clinical batches and will support its future commercial supply.

Stability data support a shelf life of at least&nbsp;36 months at room temperature, and formulation IP granted in 2023 provides protection through 2042.
NeuroSense is working to advance discussions with Health Canada to pursue early market entry through the Notice of Compliance with Conditions (NOC/c) pathway.
Commercial forecasts suggest a potential peak annual revenue of $100–150 million in&nbsp;Canada.
D. Boral Capital initiated coverage on NeuroSense on Monday with a Buy rating and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NRSN/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">a price forecast of $14</a>.
Analyst Jason Kolbert says, &#8220;The mechanistic rationale is supported by both preclinical and translational research, positioning PrimeC as a multimodal therapy in a field still dominated by marginally effective monotherapies.&#8221;
D. Boral writes that the ongoing Phase 2b PARADIGM trial is designed to provide further validation and is expected to report topline results in the second half of 2025.
In April, NeuroSense shared new findings from its Phase&nbsp;2b&nbsp;PARADIGM clinical trial. The data highlights the impact of PrimeC on microRNA (miRNA) modulation, representing a significant development in understanding how the therapy may slow disease progression.
It reveals the consistent effect of PrimeC on altering the expression of miRNAs associated with ALS, aligning with the previously reported clinical benefits, including a 33% reduction in disease progression and a 58% improvement in survival rates observed with PrimeC treatment.
The analyst notes that NeuroSense is expanding its platform into Alzheimer&#8217;s and Parkinson&#8217;s disease, leveraging the same pathophysiologic targets with modified drug combinations. This modular approach could significantly broaden the company&#8217;s addressable market while maintaining development efficiency.
&#8220;We believe NeuroSense is at an inflection point where clinical proof-of-concept data, coupled with upcoming catalysts, could drive substantial value creation,&#8221; Kolbert adds.
In August 2024, NeuroSense Therapeutics said it was in advanced discussions with several multi-billion-dollar pharmaceutical companies regarding a potential strategic partnership to develop and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/08/40596888/exclusive-neurosense-therapeutics-in-advanced-talks-with-several-multi-billion-dollar-pharma-comp" rel="noreferrer noopener">commercialize PrimeC for&nbsp;ALS</a>.
Price Action: NRSN stock is up 6.34% at $1.11 at the last check on Monday.

<h2>The Significance of Analyst Ratings Explained</h2>
Ratings come from analysts, or specialists within banking and financial systems that report for specific stocks or defined sectors (typically once per quarter for each stock). Analysts usually derive their information from company conference calls and meetings, financial statements, and conversations with important insiders to reach their decisions.
Some analysts publish their predictions for metrics such as growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide additional guidance with their ratings. When using analyst ratings, it is important to keep in mind that stock and sector analysts are also human and are only offering their opinions to investors.
