Victoria&#39;s Secret: ecco come cambiano i target price in vista degli utili

Super Micro Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMCI#NASDAQ">SMCI</a>), a leading AI server manufacturer, plans to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/artificial-intelligence" rel="noreferrer noopener">increase its investment</a> in Europe to meet surging demand for AI infrastructure.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">European Expansion Driven By Soaring AI Demand</h2>
The company, which already operates manufacturing facilities in the Netherlands, is exploring additional European locations for expansion, CNBC reported on Wednesday, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/07/09/super-micro-to-ramp-up-investment-in-europe-to-capitalize-on-ai-demand.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">citing</a> Super Micro&#8217;s chief, Charles Liang.
Liang attributes this accelerated investment to the rapid growth of European demand for AI solutions, a trend he expects to persist globally for many years.

This move follows Super Micro&#8217;s June 11 expansion of Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) Blackwell <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45881923/supermicro-teams-up-with-nvidia-to-supercharge-europes-ai-factories-with-powerful-server-solutions" rel="noreferrer noopener">AI server solutions</a> into the European market, offering over 30 stack options for swift enterprise deployment.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Domestic Production Also Scaling Up</h2>
While focusing on Europe, Super Micro is also <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/media/25/05/45541908/supermicro-eyes-texas-mississippi-for-ai-server-growth-as-microsoft-amazon-increase-spending" rel="noreferrer noopener">expanding its server production capacity</a> in U.S. states like Mississippi and Texas. This domestic expansion is driven by the substantial investments from tech giants such as Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) and Amazon.com (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) in building data centers for AI model deployment and training.
The company also credited President Trump&#8217;s localization initiative as a key factor driving its domestic expansion efforts. However, at that time, Liang also pointed to production difficulties in the U.S., citing elevated costs and the absence of a domestic semiconductor manufacturing ecosystem for over 30 years. He said the long gap left American infrastructure and labor unfamiliar with the demands of manufacturing roles.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Stock Performance And Financial Headwinds</h2>
Despite its strong performance year-to-date, with the stock up over 61% and significantly outperforming the S&amp;P 500&#8217;s 6% gain amidst the AI frenzy, Super Micro has faced recent headwinds. The stock plunged over 45% in the last 12 months, lagging the S&amp;P 500&#8217;s 11% gains. This decline was largely due to increased scrutiny over the company&#8217;s internal financing controls, including the resignation of its independent auditor last October, which led to delayed financial filings.
Ongoing tariff uncertainties have also impacted the company, resulting in postponed orders and a downward revision of its fiscal year revenue guidance. Super Micro now forecasts fiscal year revenue between $21.8 billion and $22.6 billion, a reduction from its earlier projection of $23.5 billion to $25 billion.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Strong Growth Trajectory Maintained</h2>
Nevertheless, Liang reiterated to CNBC on Wednesday that Super Micro maintains a robust growth trajectory by advancing its core technologies and broadening its business footprint.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Analyst Outlook</h2>
Analysts have set a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SMCI/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus price forecast</a> of $276.50 for Super Micro, based on ratings from 21 firms. Rosenblatt issued the highest forecast of $1,300 on August 7, 2024, while Wedbush set the lowest at $30 on May 7, 2025. Recent ratings average out to a price forecast of $42.67, suggesting a potential downside of 13.56% from the current level based on those forecasts.
In May, Raymond James <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45399438/smci-rated-outperform-by-raymond-james-amid-dominance-in-branded-ai-server-market" rel="noreferrer noopener">initiated coverage on</a> Super Micro with an Outperform rating, highlighting its rapid revenue growth and leadership in AI-optimized infrastructure. The firm noted that AI platforms generate roughly 70% of Supermicro&#8217;s revenue, establishing the company as a leading force among branded server vendors.
Raymond James forecasted fiscal 2026 revenue of $29.8 billion and EPS of $3.03, emphasizing Supermicro&#8217;s strategic position between traditional IT giants like Dell Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>) and Hewlett-Packard Enterprise Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HPE#NYSE">HPE</a>) and contract manufacturers such as Quanta.
Price Action: SMCI shares were trading higher by 0.53% to $49.37 premarket at last check Wednesday.

Super Micro Accelerates European Footprint To Meet Exploding AI Needs

President Donald Trump fired back at Democrats on Wednesday over their inflation messaging, declaring on X that he &#8220;brought down costs more than any President in recorded history&#8221; and calling Democratic claims &#8220;a total LIE.&#8221;
What Happened: &#8220;I brought down costs more than any President in recorded history. The Crooked Democrats are using the opposite narrative, even though they know it is a total LIE. Remember this when you hear their phony soundbites. MAGA!!!&#8221; Trump posted on the social media platform.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="322" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/09050122/image-97-1024x322.png" alt="" class="wp-image-977932" style="width:593px;height:auto" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/09050122/image-97-1024x322.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/09050122/image-97-300x94.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/09050122/image-97-768x241.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/09050122/image-97.png 1190w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
The president&#8217;s remarks come as inflation pressures mount across multiple fronts. The Personal Consumption Expenditures price index rose 2.3% year-over-year in May, while core PCE accelerated to 2.7%, exceeding Federal Reserve targets and marking the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/06/46137796/inflation-is-heating-up-again-are-tariffs-to-blame">first uptick after a two-month slowdown</a>.

Why It Matters: Economic data shows personal income fell 0.4% month-over-month in May, the first decline since September 2021, while consumer spending contracted 0.1%. Apollo chief economist Torsten Sløk warns that a 10% d<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/forex/25/07/46272823/as-us-dollar-sinks-top-economist-warns-10-slide-could-spark-new-inflation-spike">ollar depreciation could boost inflation</a> by 0.3 percentage points, with the U.S. Dollar Index already down 10.29% year-to-date.
Trump&#8217;s tariff policies face scrutiny as potential inflation drivers. However, Amazon.com Inc. CEO Andy Jassy told CNBC the company &#8220;hasn&#8217;t seen prices appreciably go up&#8221; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/07/46188202/tom-lee-calls-amazon-an-early-signal-as-andy-jassy-says-no-price-hike-despite-trump-tariffs-absence-of-inflation-is-a-positive-sign">despite widespread tariff implementation</a>, citing forward buying and seller inventory strategies.
Fundstrat&#8217;s Tom Lee highlighted Amazon as a critical early inflation indicator, noting the retail giant&#8217;s massive import volume positions it to &#8220;see inflation early,&#8221; making the &#8220;absence of inflation = positive&#8221; for broader economic conditions.
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell testified to Congress that tariff increases &#8220;are likely to push up prices and weigh on economic activity,&#8221; though effects could be &#8220;short-lived&#8221; or &#8220;more persistent&#8221; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/economic-data/25/06/46077396/powell-interest-rates-trump-inflation-tariffs">depending on the implementation scale</a>.

Trump Slams Democrats Over Inflation Narrative, Says He Cut Costs 'More Than Any President In History'

Used car prices are surging in the U.S., driven by the volatility around President Donald Trump's tariffs.
What Happened: The Manheim Index, a metric used to track used car prices in the U.S., has surged 1.6% in June from May and 6.3% year-on-year, the single largest increase since August 2022, data shared by Cox Automotive in a press release showcased on Tuesday.
"Wholesale appreciation trends have been more volatile over Q2 as tariffs really impacted new sales and supply, which impacted the used marketplace as well," Cox Automotive&#8217;s Senior Director of Economic and Industry Insights, Jeremy Robb, said.
&#8220;Retail sales continue to run a bit hotter than prior years, and off-lease supply into the market is still on a downward path, two factors which should be fairly supportive of higher values as we move onward,&#8221; Robb said in the release.
The index has caught the eye of private economists and Fed officials in recent years, especially during the pandemic, as a marker for longer bouts of inflation.
Why It Matters: The 25% auto tariffs have had a significant impact on the U.S. auto sector, with many automakers pulling their <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45150325/gm-cut-its-2025-forecast-on-tariffs-but-core-business-holds-up-says-goldman-sachs">yearly guidance</a> due to the uncertainty and volatility in the market.
Recently, Japan's top trade negotiator, Ryosei Akazawa, called the 25% <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46109160/japans-top-trade-negotiator-calls-trumps-25-auto-tariffs-unacceptable-amid-ongoing-talks">auto tariffs unacceptable</a> for Japanese manufacturers. "We have repeatedly explained to the U.S. that Japan&#8217;s automobile industry has made an enormous contribution to the U.S. economy," Akazawa said.
However, Trump had earlier indicated that he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45919154/trump-says-he-may-hike-auto-tariffs-again-to-boost-domestic-production-the-higher-you-go-they-build-a-plant-here">could raise the tariffs</a> once again in a bid to boost domestic production in the U.S. "The higher you go, the more likely it is they build a plant here," he had said. Trump recently also sent <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46263813/trump-to-send-take-it-or-leave-it-tariff-letters-to-12-countries-on-monday-report">"take it or leave it" letters</a> to 12 countries over the tariffs.

Used Car Prices See Biggest Surge Since 2022 As Trump Tariffs Shake Auto Market: Report

The Wall Street Journal Reported, DoJ Prosecutors Question Doctors About UnitedHealth's Medicare Billing Practices

Carvana Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVNA#NYSE">CVNA</a>) has delivered a staggering 9,644% gain from its pandemic-era lows in 2022, but CNBC's Jim Cramer believes the used-car e-retailer is only just getting started.
Check out the current price of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CVNA" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">CVNA stock here</a>.
What Happened: On Tuesday, Cramer reiterated his long-term bullish stance on Carvana, on CNBC&#8217;s Mad Money, citing its operational turnaround, a blowout first-quarter earnings report, and a massive market opportunity still left to capture. 
&#8220;This quarter, we sold nearly 134,000 cars and generated just shy of 500 million of adjusted EBITDA. And we did this with just 1% of the overall market,&#8221; Cramer said, quoting Carvana's latest shareholder letter.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/insights/news/25/07/46262741/100-invested-in-this-stock-5-years-ago-would-be-worth-this-much-today">$100 Invested In This Stock 5 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today</a>
Despite its volatility and the fact that the stock has nearly doubled since April, Cramer says he remains a &#8220;true believer&#8221; in the leadership of CEO Ernie Garcia. &#8220;Carvana has built a best-in-class business model, and management is on track to deliver both strong growth and rising profitability,&#8221; he said.
Cramer says the stock went into overdrive after its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/05/45235162/carvana-q1-earnings-preview-amazon-of-auto-retail-looks-to-beat-estimates-for-5th-straight-quarter">first quarter results</a> on May 7, when it posted $1.51 per share in earnings, well ahead of consensus estimates at $0.73 per share. The company further delivered a record 46% growth in retail unit sales, alongside a 38% year-over-year growth in revenue.
&#8220;I mean, come on, they more than doubled what the analysts were expecting,&#8221; Cramer says, while highlighting the long-term financial goals set by the management, at 3 million units per year and an adjusted EBITDA margin of 13.5% over the next 5 to 10 years. The figures currently stand at 460,000 units and 10.1% margins.
While Cramer acknowledged near-term risks, including potential pullbacks, rising interest rates, and insider selling by Garcia, he emphasized that &#8220;insiders sell for many reasons&#8221; and dismissed those moves as noise rather than a signal.
&#8220;If you don't own it already, you do have my blessing to put on a small position here,&#8221; Cramer concluded, urging investors to be ready to buy more on weakness.
Why It Matters: The company that&#8217;s often dubbed the &#8220;Amazon of Auto Retail&#8221; has a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CVNA/analyst-ratings">bullish consensus</a> among analysts, with a high-end price target of $440, representing an upside of 27% from current levels. 
President Donald Trump&#8217;s &#8220;Liberation Day&#8221; tariffs were seen as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45276870/carvana-ceo-believes-tariffs-could-benefit-used-cars-as-it-achieves-long-term-profitability-goal-years-ahead-of-schedule">a significant tailwind</a> for Carvana, with the CEO saying that they could allow the company to achieve long-term profitability years ahead of schedule.
Billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman had a similar thesis, but for Hertz Global Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HTZ#NASDAQ">HTZ</a>), saying that the tariffs could lead to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44889381/ackman-bets-big-on-hertz-as-tariff-tailwinds-boost-fleet-value-investing-is-risky-there-are-no-guarantees-of-a-successful-outcome">surge in used-car prices</a>, increasing the value of existing inventory. The same applies to Carvana and its peers in the used-car retailing business. 
Price Action: Shares of Carvana were down 3.19% on Tuesday, trading at $345.92, and are up 0.17% after hours.

Financial Times Reported Earlier, Merck Near Deal To Acquire Veron For ~$107 Per American Depository Share

Fundstrat Global Advisors Head of Research Tom Lee compared Robinhood Markets Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>) to Morgan Stanley (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MS#NYSE">MS</a>) for the younger generation, drawing parallels to how discount brokers emerged for baby boomers in the 1980s.
What Happened: &#8220;I think it&#8217;s the Morgan Stanley of this young generation,&#8221; Lee said during an interview with Amit Kukreja. &#8220;What people forget is in the 1980s, Wall Street was this old boys network and a few brokers were starting up for the baby boomers.&#8221;
Lee referenced how Charles Schwab Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SCHW#NYSE">SCHW</a>) began as a newsletter before becoming a broker, alongside E-Trade, to serve the boomer generation. &#8220;That is Robinhood today,&#8221; he said.
The strategist praised Robinhood&#8217;s cryptocurrency integration and user interface, calling the company &#8220;incredibly smart&#8221; for understanding the importance of design and making strategic moves. Lee&#8217;s firm operates the Fundstrat Granny Shots U.S. Large Cap ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GRNY#NYSE">GRNY</a>), which holds a 3.52% position in Robinhood shares.
Robinhood&#8217;s stock has surged following aggressive cryptocurrency expansion plans, including the planned acquisition of Bitstamp crypto exchange and commission-free tokenized U.S. equities for European customers. CEO Vlad Tenev aims to establish &#8220;crypto as the backbone of the global financial system.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The fintech company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/07/46297741/robinhoods-openai-space-x-tokens-arent-just-a-gimmick-heres-whats-still-to-come">recently launched tokenized versions</a> of over 200 publicly listed equities across Europe, offering 24/5 access to U.S. stock exposure. It also introduced non-tradable private stock tokens for OpenAI and SpaceX as promotional giveaways.
However, Robinhood faces regulatory scrutiny as Lithuania&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/07/46297741/robinhoods-openai-space-x-tokens-arent-just-a-gimmick-heres-whats-still-to-come">central bank seeks clarification on its tokenized equity</a> products. The company was also excluded from the latest S&amp;P 500 index reconstitution, causing a brief stock retreat.
Despite challenges, Robinhood&#8217;s market capitalization of $80.54 billion positions it as a significant player compared to Morgan Stanley&#8217;s $226.42 billion and Charles Schwab&#8217;s $167.07 billion market caps.

Tom Lee Calls Robinhood 'Morgan Stanley' For Gen Z, Draws 1980s Wall Street Broker Analogy To Explain Fintech's Rise

President&nbsp;Donald Trump&nbsp;expressed his thoughts on the government cuts initiated by his one-time advisor,&nbsp;Elon Musk, and dismissed concerns about the impact of Musk&#8217;s new political party.
What Happened: Trump, during a Cabinet meeting, suggested that he might have executed the government cuts differently than Musk, as reported by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2025/07/08/trump-on-doge-cuts-i-would-have-done-it-differently-00442255">Politico</a>&nbsp;on Tuesday. He commended&nbsp;the Department of Government Efficiency&nbsp;(DOGE) for its reductions in the federal workforce, particularly noting the significant reduction at the Environmental Protection Agency.
"We could have done it differently," stated the President. "I would have done it differently, a little bit, maybe."
When asked about Musk&#8217;s decision to form the &#8216;America Party&#8217; after a public fallout over the Republican spending package, Trump downplayed the potential negative impact on the Republican party, stating that it might actually benefit him.
&nbsp;&#8220;I think it&#8217;ll help us. Third&nbsp;parties have always been good&nbsp;for me,&#8221; stated Trump.

Why It Matters: This statement by Trump comes in the wake of Musk&#8217;s controversial tenure as the head of&nbsp;the Department of Government Efficiency&nbsp;(DOGE). The DOGE initiative, intended to infuse Silicon Valley expertise into the federal government, was widely <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45921017/trumps-doge-initiative-slammed-as-broke-humpty-dumpty-while-former-insider-sahil-lavingia-spills-shocking-details-no-salary-no-role-chaotic-work-culture-and-abrupt-exit-after-just-55-d">criticized </a>for its disorganized and dysfunctional structure by Gumroad founder Sahil Lavingia's based on his 55-day stint with the program.
On Sunday, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told CNN that the principles of DOGE were "popular," not Elon Musk. 
Musk ended his role at DOGE by the end of May. The Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO&#8217;s subsequent move to establish a third party after displeasure over the &#8216;Big, Beautiful Bill&#8217; has sparked speculation about its potential impact on the Republican party, with Trump&#8217;s recent comments adding to the ongoing political conversation.

What Happened: The legislation, introduced by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and backed by President Donald Trump, aims to build generational wealth by seeding every American newborn with a tax-advantaged investment in the S&amp;P 500.
The accounts <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/long-ideas/25/06/45973429/trump-wants-babies-to-get-1000-to-invest-at-birth-this-maginicent-7-stock-tops-poll-for-18-year-growth">allow up to $5,000 in additional</a> contributions from family, friends, or businesses.

Michael Dell, CEO of Dell Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DELL#NYSE">DELL</a>), pledged to match the federal $1,000 contribution for the children of his employees.&nbsp;
"The Invest America Act just cleared Congress—every U.S. child gets a $1K S&amp;P 500 starter account at birth. 70M kids gaining a stake in America's growth… future-proofing prosperity!" Dell posted on X, formerly Twitter, after the bill passed.

Invest America Act Gives $1,000 To Every US Newborn's Investment Account: Dell CEO Calls It 'Future-Proofing Prosperity,' Sam Altman Asks For 'More Stuff Like This'

Amid the tragedy of recent&nbsp;flash floods in central Texas, conspiracy theories about &#8220;cloud seeding&#8221; practices have gained traction on social media, fueled by prominent U.S. political figures.
What Happened:&nbsp;The devastating floods have been linked by some to cloud seeding operations conducted by&nbsp;Rainmaker, a weather modification start-up backed by U.S. software billionaire&nbsp;Peter Thiel. These claims, suggesting that the floods were triggered by these operations conducted on July 2, have been widely circulated on social media, with one post viewed by over 2.6 million people, <a href="https://www.dw.com/en/fact-check-texas-floods-cloud-seeding-theories-dismissed/a-73195643">reported </a>DW News.
Republican Congresswoman&nbsp;Marjorie Taylor Greene&nbsp;(R-Ga.) and former National Security Advisor&nbsp;General Mike Flynn&nbsp;are among the political figures lending credibility to these theories. Greene has even announced plans to introduce&nbsp;a bill to Congress to&nbsp;end weather modification practices.
However,&nbsp;Rainmaker&nbsp;CEO&nbsp;Augustus Doricko&nbsp;has firmly denied these allegations, stating that their activities had no connection to the floods. Experts in the field, including ICL&#8217;s Edward Gryspeerdt and award-winning chief meteorologist Travis Herzog, have also debunked these theories, explaining that cloud seeding can only enhance existing rainfall, not create storms of this magnitude.
Matthew Cappucci, senior meteorologist at MyRadar, stated, &#8220;In dry environments, adding cloud condensation nuclei can help clouds drop subtly more rain&#8230;You don&#8217;t spontaneously make 4 trillion gallons of water appear in Texas.&#8221;
Despite the widespread dissemination of these conspiracy theories, scientific consensus supports Doricko&#8217;s claim that the&nbsp;cloud seeding operations conducted two&nbsp;days before the floods could not have been responsible for the disaster.

Why It Matters: The Texas floods, one of the deadliest flooding events in the state&#8217;s history, were triggered by a storm that dumped nearly a foot of rain in the region, causing extensive devastation and loss of life. The Guadalupe River in Kerr County, known for its historic summer camps, was among the areas most <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/health-care/25/07/46265894/unprecedented-texas-flash-floods-result-in-over-50-fatalities-27-girls-still-missing">severely affected</a>. 
The latest death toll has crossed 100, including 30 children, with nearly 180 people missing, reported Reuters on Wednesday.
Prominent U.S. leaders, including Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) CEO Tim Cook, former President Barack Obama and officials from both parties, reacted with grief and solidarity to the catastrophic floods. Cook expressed his heartbreak over the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46267165/tim-cook-says-heartbroken-by-devastating-loss-caused-by-texas-floods-ron-desantis-vows-to-support-lone-star-state">devastating loss</a> caused by the flooding in Texas.

Why AES Shares Are Trading Higher By Over 10%; Here Are 20 Stocks Moving Premarket

Market veteran Warren Buffett, famous for his value investing, is indirectly invested in high-dividend yield stocks via Berkshire Hathaway Inc.&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRA#NYSE">BRA</a>) (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BRK#NYSE">BRK</a>) subsidiary New England Asset Management.
What Happened: In 1998, Berkshire Hathaway acquired General Re Corp., which in turn owned New England Asset Management (NEAM).
Therefore, NEAM is a wholly owned subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway. While Buffett doesn&#8217;t directly oversee NEAM&#8217;s investment decisions, the portfolio managed by NEAM is considered part of Berkshire Hathaway&#8217;s overall holdings.
Thus, according to its 13F filings, NEAM holds at least nine stocks that have a dividend yield ranging from 5% to 10.5%.
While most of these nine stocks constitute less than 1% of NEAM&#8217;s 122 holdings as of the end of the first quarter of 2025, only Kraft Heinz Co. is common between Berkshire and NEAM&#8217;s portfolio.

Warren Buffett's Quiet Dividend Play: 9 High-Yield Stocks Held By A Berkshire Subsidiary

Peter Navarro, the White House trade advisor, has expressed his dissatisfaction with Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) CEO, Tim Cook, for not relocating the company&#8217;s manufacturing facilities out of China.
What Happened: Navarro, in an interview with CNBC&#8217;s &#8220;Squawk on the Street&#8221; on Monday, expressed his disappointment with Cook&#8217;s reluctance to move Apple&#8217;s production out of China. He told host Jim Cramer, &#8220;Going back to the first Trump term, Tim Cook has continually asked for more time in order to move his factories out of China.&#8221; He also referred to this as the &#8220;longest-running soap opera in Silicon Valley.&#8221;
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Peter Navarro: &#039;Inconceivable&#039; that Apple could not produce iPhones outside China" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/VzO0yLn7P6k?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>
</figure>
Navarro, who has been an outspoken critic of China&#8217;s trade practices, also expressed his disbelief that Cook could not manufacture iPhones in other parts of the world, especially given the advancements in manufacturing techniques and AI. He stressed that Cook&#8217;s slow progress in moving production out of China was &#8216;inconceivable.&#8217;

Why It Matters: This criticism comes in the backdrop of Apple&#8217;s recent expansion in India. Despite President Trump&#8217;s warning, Apple proceeded with a $1.5 billion <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/05/45582261/despite-trumps-warning-to-tim-cook-apple-moves-ahead-with-1-5-billion-india-expansion-via-foxconn-to-boost-iphone-production-report">expansion in India</a> through its top manufacturing partner, Foxconn, to boost iPhone production. However, Trump had threatened Cook with a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45584696/trump-threatens-tim-cook-to-manufacture-iphones-in-the-us-or-face-at-least-25-tariffs"> 25% tariff </a>if iPhones sold in the U.S. were not manufactured domestically.
Apple responded by rerouting 97% of Foxconn <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45919887/apple-reroutes-97-of-foxconn-iphone-exports-from-india-to-us-between-march-and-may-as-trump-threatens-25-tariff-on-non-us-made-iphones-report">iPhone exports</a> from India to the U.S. between March and May to safeguard its U.S. sales from the impact of escalating tariffs on China-made goods. However, a tech analyst had previously stated that U.S. iPhone production is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45464834/apple-iphone-production-in-us-not-feasible-says-tech-bull-after-donald-trump-tells-tim-cook-to-stay-out-of-india">&#8220;not feasible&#8221; </a> and could boost iPhone prices upto $3,500.
This ongoing tug-of-war between the Trump administration and Apple over production locations continues to create ripples in the tech industry.
On a year-to-date basis, Apple stock slumped 13.88%, as per <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
