In the face of impending Hurricane Milton, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has refuted claims made by Vice President Kamala Harris accusing him of &#8220;political gamesmanship&#8221;. DeSantis has labeled these accusations as &#8220;delusional&#8221;, following reports that he did not respond to Harris&#8217;s calls during the hurricane preparations.
What Happened: In a Fox News interview, confirmed his use of all available resources, including federal aid, to prepare for the hurricane expected to hit Florida on Wednesday. He also confirmed his ongoing communication with President Joe Biden and officials from the Federal Emergency Management Agency, <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/4921329-desantis-accuses-harris-political-gamesmanship/">reported</a> The Hill.
In response to Harris&#8217;s criticism, DeSantis stated, &#8220;And so for Kamala Harris to try to say that my sole focus on the people of Florida is somehow selfish, is delusional.&#8221; He accused Harris of trying to politicize the storm for her campaign.

Previously, Harris had expressed her concerns about DeSantis&#8217;s refusal to take her calls, accusing him of prioritizing political games over the welfare of the people. DeSantis, however, countered these accusations by emphasizing his focus on the people of Florida and his effective management of several storms during his tenure.
Why It Matters: Earlier, DeSantis <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41219961/ron-desantis-denies-ignoring-kamala-harriss-calls-amid-hurricane-emergency-i-didnt-know-she-called-m">denied knowledge</a> of any calls made by Harris in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. He claimed ignorance of Harris's calls during a press conference about the upcoming Hurricane Milton and suggested the calls "seemed political."
DeSantis&#8217;s handling of the hurricane situation and his relationship with the federal government could have significant implications for the welfare of Florida&#8217;s residents, especially as Hurricane Milton is expected to make landfall in Tampa, Florida on Wednesday evening.
Hurricane Milton, which reached Category 5 with winds of 180 mph before being downgraded to Category 4. President Biden emphasized evacuation efforts and federal support, while Tampa&#8217;s mayor dispelled rumors of insufficient resources. The storm could <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41239644/hurricane-milton-evacuations-a-matter-of-life-and-death-biden-says-feds-bostic-says-storm-could-">significantly impact insurance and other sectors</a>, with damages possibly exceeding $50 billion.

Ron Desantis Says Kamala Harris Is 'Delusional' For Trying To Say His Sole Focus On People Of Florida Is Selfish Amid Phone Call Row

Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk&#8217;s social media platform, X, formerly Twitter, has been granted permission by Brazil&#8217;s Supreme Court to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40748476/fcc-chief-defends-elon-musks-x-and-starlink-amid-brazils-punitive-actions-warns-business-leaders-are">recommence its operations</a> in the country.
What Happened: On Tuesday, Brazil&#8217;s Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de&nbsp;Moraes confirmed that&nbsp;X had met all the&nbsp;necessary prerequisites to restart its operations in Brazil, reported Reuters.
In his ruling, Moraes directed Brazil&#8217;s telecommunications regulator Anatel to facilitate X&#8217;s return to online operations within 24 hours. However,&nbsp;as of 7 p.m. local&nbsp;time, users&nbsp;in Brazil were still unable&nbsp;to access the platform.

This development follows a series of events that led to the suspension of X&#8217;s operations in Brazil. In late August, X was banned in Brazil due to a disagreement with a local judge over what <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/41062162/elon-musks-x-reportedly-aims-for-brazil-reentry-backs-down-from-censorship-dispute">Musk referred to as &#8220;censorship.&#8221;</a>
However, the tech mogul began to shift his stance later.

Why It Matters: Previously, Meta Platforms, Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) Instagram and Facebook also faced regulatory challenges in Brazil, after the Latin American country prohibited it from using users&#8217; posts to train its AI models
According to Statista, as of the third quarter of 2023, WhatsApp led Brazil&#8217;s social media usage, with 93.4% of the online population using the platform. Instagram followed at 91.2%, while Facebook was used by 83.3% of internet users.&nbsp;
TikTok and Facebook Messenger had 65.1% and 60.8% usage, respectively, with Pinterest, Telegram, Kuaishou, and Twitter capturing smaller portions of the market.
Meta introduced WhatsApp&#8217;s native payment feature in Brazil in June 2020, but it was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/22/04/26706461/metas-whatsapp-business-fund-transfer-hits-roadblock-in-brazil-ft">blocked by the Central Bank</a> due to authorization issues with Mastercard and Visa.
After nine months, person-to-person debit card transfers were allowed in March 2021, followed by credit card payments for small businesses in April 2023.
By June 2024, large companies could accept credit card payments, and Pix was added, marking a four-year journey to full availability.

Elon Musk Vows To Defend Freedom Of Speech, But 'Within The Boundaries Of The Law' As X Gets Brazil Greenlight To Resume Operations

The hotly-awaited HBO documentary purportedly revealing the real identity of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) creator Satoshi Nakamoto just aired, but does it truly unveil one of the most enduring mysteries of our time?
What happened:  The documentary titled &#8220;Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery,&#8221; directed by investigative filmmaker Cullen Hoback, has sparked interest ever since its cinematic trailer was dropped last week.
The documentary covers Bitcoin's roots and introduces various figures from the early days of its development, including Blockstream CEO Adam Back. 
Toward the end of the documentary, however, Hoback locks in on Bitcoin Core engineer Peter Todd, providing a series of hints that he may be the leading cryptocurrency&#8217;s secret inventor, <a href="https://decrypt.co/285252/im-not-satoshi-hbo-documentary-misfires-bitcoin">according</a> to Decrypt. 
Todd quickly took to X to deny the claim. &#8220;I&#8217;ve done a lot of things in life that have put me in the spotlight. Not my first rodeo. But this might be crazier than before,&#8221; he said in another post.

Why It Matters: Satoshi Nakamoto is the alias for whoever wrote the Bitcoin <a href="https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf">whitepaper </a>and is credited with developing Bitcoin. Several persons have claimed or were believed to be Satoshi, but their genuine identity has never been confirmed or revealed.
Speculation over Nakamoto&#8217;s identity has long been a subject of intense speculation, with names of several technologists and computer scientists over the years, including Australian computer scientist Craig Wright, late American software developer Hal Finney, and Litecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ltc/usd">LTC</a>) creator Charlie Lee, and Adam Back..
Preceding the reveal, betting odds saw wild fluctuation on who HBO would identify as Nakamoto. While late cypherpunk and privacy advocate Len Sassaman was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41200679/len-sassaman-is-bitcoin-creator-satoshi-nakamoto-in-hbo-documentary-polymarket-punters-see">punters&#8217; favorite </a>earlier, the odds quickly <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41221351/elon-musks-theory-gains-ground-polymarket-odds-soar-for-nick-szabo-being-named-bitcoin-cre">shifted in favor</a> of Nick Szabo—another noted scientist from Bitcoin&#8217;s early evolution days. 
With Satoshi holding <a href="https://www.arkhamintelligence.com/research/who-owns-the-most-bitcoin-2023-edition">more than a million Bitcoins</a> (out of the 21 million total supply maximum), interested parties find a rational factor in seeking out their identity, as any movement of their holdings could drastically affect the coin&#8217;s price. 
Price Action: At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $62,269.11, down 2.03% in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>. &nbsp;

Peter Todd Is Satoshi Nakamoto? Bitcoin Core Developer Denies HBO Documentary Claims: 'I'm Not Satoshi'

An Afghan national, based in Oklahoma City, has been charged with planning a terror attack in the United States on Election Day. The individual was allegedly acting on behalf of the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS). Donald Trump Jr. reacted to the development.

The US Justice Department has brought charges against Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi, 27, for allegedly conspiring and attempting to provide material support to ISIS. Tawhedi is also accused of procuring firearms and ammunition for the intended attack. He reportedly took actions to liquidate his family&#8217;s assets, relocate his family members abroad, and acquire AK-47 assault rifles and ammunition.
The eldest child of former president Donald Trump said on X that his father has &#8220;been proven right&#8221; once again. Trump Jr. shared the news which described the person as having entered the United States on a &#8220;special immigrant visa&#8221; on Sept. 9, 2021.
&#8220;As charged, the Justice Department foiled the defendant's plot to acquire semi-automatic weapons and commit a violent attack in the name of ISIS on U.S. soil on Election Day,&#8221; stated Attorney General Merrick B. Garland.

According to the criminal complaint, Tawhedi was seen in a video reading to two children text that describes the rewards a martyr receives in the afterlife. He allegedly accessed, viewed, and saved ISIS propaganda on his iCloud and Google account, participated in pro-ISIS Telegram groups, and contributed to a charity which fronts for and funnels money to ISIS.
If convicted, he faces a maximum prison sentence of 20 years for conspiring and attempting to provide material support to ISIS, and a maximum of 15 years for receiving a firearm to be used to commit a felony or a federal crime of terrorism.

Trump Jr. Says His Dad 'Has Been Proven Right Again' After FBI Foils Afghan National's Election Day Terror Plot

Betsey Stevenson, a former economic adviser to former President Barack Obama, has challenged the notion that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40744471/trumps-plan-to-ban-mortgages-for-undocumented-immigrants-sparks-debate-what-do-the-numbers-say">undocumented immigrants are readily obtaining mortgages</a> in the United States.
What Happened: Stevenson, now an economist at the University of Michigan, took to X, formerly Twitter, to address the issue. &#8220;Of all the anti-immigration myths, the idea that undocumented immigrants are applying for and getting mortgages is the craziest,&#8221; she wrote.
To illustrate her point, Stevenson cited the case of Ben Bernanke, former Federal Reserve chairman, who reportedly struggled to secure a mortgage after leaving his position due to difficulties documenting his income.
Responding to a claim about mission-oriented lenders providing mortgages without proof of legal presence, Stevenson acknowledged the existence of such practices for long-standing undocumented residents. However, she emphasized that recent border crossers are not &#8220;heading straight to the bank to buy a house.&#8221;
The debate highlights the complexities surrounding immigration and financial services in the U.S., with Stevenson&#8217;s comments shedding light on common misconceptions about undocumented immigrants&#8217; access to mortgages.

Why It Matters: The debate over undocumented immigrants and their access to mortgages has intensified in recent months. 
In early September, a proposal by former President Donald Trump to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40744471/trumps-plan-to-ban-mortgages-for-undocumented-immigrants-sparks-debate-what-do-the-numbers-say">ban mortgages for undocumented immigrants</a> sparked significant debate. The plan raised questions about the economic implications and the accuracy of claims regarding undocumented immigrants&#8217; access to financial services. 
Meanwhile, California is considering offering up to $150,000 in home loan <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/09/40760293/california-could-soon-offer-undocumented-immigrants-up-to-150-000-in-home-loan-assistance-but-critic">assistance to undocumented immigrants</a>, a move that has drawn both support and criticism. Critics express concern over the potential financial burden on taxpayers. 
Additionally, the broader economic impact of undocumented immigration has been highlighted by figures like Nassim Taleb, who warned that curbing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/05/39023220/undocumented-immigration-good-for-economy-black-swan-author-nassim-taleb-warns-any-">undocumented immigration could lead to inflation</a> due to the U.S.&#8217;s reliance on cheap labor.

Former Obama Adviser Points Out Chief Ben Bernanke Couldn't Get A Mortgage After He Left The Fed: 'Idea That Undocumented Immigrants Are Applying For And Getting Mortgages Is The Craziest'

In his soon-to-be-released book &#8220;War&#8221;, renowned journalist Bob Woodward uncovers a strained relationship between U.S. President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
What Happened: The book, scheduled for release on October 15, includes excerpts <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2024/10/08/politics/bob-woodward-book-war-joe-biden-putin-netanyahu-trump/index.html">published</a> by CNN on Tuesday. These excerpts reveal Biden&#8217;s private objections to Netanyahu&#8217;s military operations in Gaza and Iran.
Woodward&#8217;s book discloses that Biden privately rebuked Netanyahu, branding him a &#8220;bad guy&#8221; and a &#8220;liar&#8221;. The U.S. President also reportedly showed dissatisfaction with Israel&#8217;s assassination of a Hezbollah military commander in Beirut, and questioned Israel&#8217;s global image.
Biden allegedly yelled at Netanyahu and said, &#8220;Bibi, what the f&#x2A;&#x2A;&#x2A;?" after the assassination.
&#8220;You know the perception of Israel around the world increasingly is that you're a rogue state, a rogue actor,&#8221; according to the author.
Netanyahu justified his actions, claiming the commander was a leading terrorist and that a firm stance would assist in negotiations. Woodward also noted that Biden had disparaging remarks about Netanyahu&#8217;s associates, labeling 18 out of 19 of them as &#8220;liars.&#8221;
White House deputy press secretary Emilie Simons said, on the relationship between Biden and Trump, &#8220;They have a long-term relationship. They have a very honest and direct relationship, and I don't have a comment on those specific anecdotes.&#8221;

Why It Matters: This revelation comes in the wake of several other significant disclosures from Woodward&#8217;s book. Earlier Benzinga reported that the book alleges former President Donald Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/10/41235596/trump-secretly-stayed-in-contact-with-putin-after-leaving-office-upcoming-bob-woodward-book-alle">maintained secret contact</a> with Russian President Vladimir Putin after leaving office.

Vice President Kamala Harris has grown her lead over former President Donald Trump in a weekly head-to-head poll of likely voters with less than one month until the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/2024-election">2024 presidential election.</a>
What Happened: Harris has shown a lead over Trump in many election polls, while election betting odds <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41205762/donald-trump-takes-2-7-point-election-betting-odds-lead-over-kamala-harris-more-accurate-t">and prediction markets</a> have fluctuated to show a tight race as election day nears.
A new Morning Consult <a href="https://pro.morningconsult.com/trackers/2024-presidential-election-polling">poll </a>of likely voters shows Harris' lead tying a record high six points, a lead she had after the presidential debate between the two candidates in September.
The new poll shows the following results from voters, with the results from the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/10/41132643/harris-vs-trump-vice-president-leads-former-president-by-5-points-walz-favorability-rating-tops-"> Oct. 1 poll</a> in parentheses:
<ul>
<li>Kamala Harris: 51% (51%)</li>
<li>Donald Trump: 45% (46%)</li>
<li>Someone Else: 2% (2%)</li>
<li>Don't Know: 2% (2%)</li>
</ul>
The poll also found that 94% of Democrats backed Harris as their top pick, in line with last week's poll. The poll also found 92% of Republicans backed Trump as their top pick, in line with last week's poll.
Independent voters selected the following as their head-to-head preference, with the results from the Oct. 1 poll in parentheses:
<ul>
<li>Kamala Harris: 45% (45%)</li>
<li>Donald Trump: 44% (44%)</li>
<li>Someone Else: 5% (5%)</li>
<li>Don't Know: 5% (5%)</li>
</ul>
The vice president also has the edge in the 18-34 age voters demographic, leading 53% to 43%. The 10-point lead is in line with last week's lead, but down from a lead of 15 points three weeks ago.  
Among Black voters, Harris leads by 77% to 19%, in line with last week's poll.

</ul>
Why It&#8217;s Important: Harris ties her record lead, which comes as good news given the predicted tight race and the timing of election day nearing.
The latest poll comes after the vice-presidential debate between Tim Walz and J.D. Vance, which many media outlets and polls showed Republican Vance <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/10/41151403/walz-vs-vance-who-won-vp-debate-and-could-the-outcome-shift-2024-election-for-harris-or-trump">as the winner</a>. The latest poll shows that the vice president debate may have had minimal impact on the overall election race.
The bad news for Harris is that Trump continues to show gains or hold his gains from last week among several key demographics, including Independent voters.
Harris had posted a stronger lead among the key Independent voter demographic for several weeks before holding onto a minimal one-point advantage in back-to-back weeks.
The vice president debate shifted favorability rankings with Vance going from 39% to 40% and Walz going from 45% to 48%. Vance saw his best net buzz rating, or the amount of people hearing positive comments about him minus the amount hearing something negative, since joining the Trump ticket.
One likely positive for Harris is the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/10/41184080/us-economy-adds-254-000-new-jobs-in-september-smashes-expectations-unemployment-f">impressive jobs report </a>last week that saw a higher-than-expected figure. The result was the election poll showing net buzz on jobs (+12) and economy (-6) hitting highs not seen since February and March of 2024, respectively.
Another potential negative for Harris is her net buzz falling below double digits for the first time since she became the Democratic Party nominee. This means that the amount of negative comments about her may be increasing or positive commentary is wearing off.
Harris <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/10/41214476/will-kamala-harriss-media-blitz-including-60-minutes-and-call-her-daddy-improve-her-2024-el">ramped up efforts </a>to be more present with the media this week with appearances on the Call Her Daddy podcast, "60 Minutes," "The Howard Stern Show," "The View" and taking part in a Town Hall.
Next week's poll could show if the media blitz efforts paid off for the vice president.

2024 Benzinga Cannabis Awards Winners Celebrated For Industry Leadership, Innovation

Alexa Alianiello, who serves as the head of cannabis at X, welcomes the idea her company is a pioneer in the space and it offers branding opportunities for companies that can't advertise <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/04/38114685/exclusive-x-fmr-twitter-exec-explains-why-storytelling-authenticity-are-the-future-of-cannabis-m">their products elsewhere.</a>
The X Vision: Alianiello said X's vision is to "help bring civilization forward through information sharing and dialogue," during a fireside chat at the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/events/cannabis-conference/">Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference on Oct. 8.</a>
X tries to be a trusted source of information, Alianiello told the crowd after being asked about the upcoming 2024 presidential election.
Alianiello said X preserves the integrity of information that's flowing while also making sure there is a free expression of information.
It's that free expression that makes X the only major social media platform to allow cannabis advertising and for users to regularly discuss the sector.
"We are a safe space for conversation around cannabis," Alianiello said.
Alianiello said users can talk about the legal landscape of the sector, social justice issues and brands and products.
"It really is the only social platform where you can talk about cannabis openly."
Alianiello, who has been featured at several Benzinga cannabis events, told the crowd the Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference is "just the best event for having an ear to the ground."

The X Opportunity: Alianiello said X is where people are coming for information and that they "can say weed" on the platform.
The social media company, which was acquired by Elon Musk for $44 billion in 2022, is welcoming cannabis companies to advertise and target users for their products.
"We're helping normalize these products," Alianiello said.
Alianiello said she has been told by brands that X is driving results for them, something she is incredibly proud of.
"The platform welcomes everyone."
Alianiello said there are 40 million posts on X annually about cannabis.
"There is a real opportunity to reach people."
While X is welcome to cannabis advertising, other social media platforms haven't dove fully in and might not be soon. Alianiello said she has talked to other platforms and they are getting more interested.
"We know that it works. We're excited to kind of be pioneers in the space."
X is the place to get information in front of a large public audience and a place where cannabis conversation is welcome, Alianiello added.

EXCLUSIVE: Elon Musk's X Is 'Safe Space' To Say Weed: 'The Only Social Platform Where You Can Talk About Cannabis Openly'

Rescheduling is "not a Panacea to all the problems of the industry" and would not make the issue of oversaturation and lack of investor capital go away, Frank Segall, co-chair of cannabis practice at Blank Rome, told the crowd gathered at the <a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.benzinga.com/events/cannabis-conference/&amp;sa=D&amp;source=docs&amp;ust=1728424361840576&amp;usg=AOvVaw1ND2uKc7pNLpMdV9WsPfvC">Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference</a> in Chicago on Tuesday. He was part of the panel, &#8220;Consolidation Trends in the Wake of Cannabis Rescheduling: Identifying Winners and Losers.&#8221;
While it would impact positively the balance sheets of many operators by eradicating restrictions of Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code and attracting some capital, the shift of cannabis to Schedule III would not result in big players like Wells Fargo crossing over to the marijuana industry, Segall said.
"Legalization is what they&#8217;re mandating for them to cross over," he added.
Segall, alongside three other experts, joined the panel moderated by Scott Greiper, founder and president at Viridian Capital Advisors, to discuss broader market consolidation trends following cannabis&#8217;s shift to Schedule III.
Alongside Segall, Pablo Zuanic, managing partner at Zuanic &amp; Associates LLC; Barbara Webb, tax partner at MGO and Laura Bianchi, co-founder of Bianchi &amp; Brandt discussed which types of companies are positioned to thrive and which are not, as well as how investors can identify solid bets in the new regulatory landscape while avoiding pitfalls in a competitive market.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/events/cannabis-conference/"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="970" height="250" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/08170959/ccc-oct-24-banner__1_-18.gif" alt="" class="wp-image-586477" /></a></figure>
Zuanic &amp; Associates&#8217; Zuanic said that even though two presidential candidates favor <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/09/40938172/no-turning-back-now-cannabis-rescheduling-gains-momentum-expert-offers-timeline">rescheduling</a> and a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/08/40653233/national-cannabis-roundtable-applauds-deas-move-december-hearing-on-rescheduling-set">DEA hearing</a> on the horizon — with signals the policy shift could happen next year — there's a drop in investor interest in the space. That's compared to the past four years.
"I think that we are getting all a bit ahead of ourselves in terms of optimism here," he said.
Zuanic added the reason why consolidation is not taking place is that valuations are depressed in addition to uncertainty around what rescheduling would really bring. He said the main benefit of rescheduling is making 280E go away.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Not Paying Taxes Is Not A Good Idea: Here's Why</h1>
That said, MGO&#8217;s Webb highlighted many cannabis companies are not paying their taxes, which could be counterproductive for operators if cannabis rescheduling takes place. "It&#8217;s a temporary survival tactic, but you can&#8217;t do that forever," she said, adding "the IRS eventually catches up."
Consequences could seriously affect business growth in the long run.
"You might be able to get an installment plan once they do catch up with you," Webb explained. "However, once on an installment plan, a cannabis business not only have to regularly, never miss a payment pay, but also stay current on your current year&#8217;s estimated taxes, which is a huge cash commitment."
Webb added companies that are going to be "superstars" post-rescheduling are cash flow positive with 280E.
The tactic of not paying taxes will have serious consequences when it comes to M&amp;A activity in the space, Bianchi &amp; Brandt&#8217;s Bianchi said. "That&#8217;s going to have a drastic effect on M&amp;A in the future because it&#8217;s already been an issue," she said.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Which Acquisitions Are and Will Be Hot</h1>
Speaking of acquisition targets, Bianchi said some buyers are looking at distressed assets, mainly businesses that have difficulties operationally and are not avoiding paying taxes.
She also said the trend of huge deals is over. "We&#8217;re dealing with more creative companies coming together and maybe joint ventures," Bianchi added.
Zuanic &amp; Associates&#8217; Zuanic said that &#8220;there's too much overlap" in deals where one multi-state operator is buying another one. Instead, he proposes brands as acquisition targets.
Brands are and will be a key point of M&amp;A activity, especially in the scenario where interstate commerce is legal, he continued.

Benzinga&#8217;s paper trading contest powered by TradeZero is nearing the end of the first of three contests as entrants compete to win over $30,000 in cash and prizes <a href="https://www.tradezeroedge.com/world-championship-of-trading?utm_source=website&amp;utm_medium=editorial&amp;utm_id=trading_competition&amp;utm_content=static" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">during a monthly contest.</a>
While Contest 1 may be nearly complete, contestants still have a shot at over $25,000 in cash and prizes in two additional contests, with Contest 2 set to kick off on Oct. 15.
Here&#8217;s how you can take home your share of cash and prizes and win a tour of the New York Stock Exchange.
The Contests:&nbsp;Powered by&nbsp;TradeZero, the&nbsp;<a href="https://benzingapartners.go2cloud.org/aff_c?offer_id=467&amp;aff_id=1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">World Championship of Trading</a>&nbsp;is the ultimate trading competition for investors to prove their keen eye during a three-month time period.
The first of three separate contests kicked off on Monday, Sept. 16. Contestants had until Monday to sign up for the first contest, which runs through Oct. 14.
Each investor will have around one month across three separate contests to generate the highest profits from a starting balance of $100,000 in a simulated trading account.
Contestants in the World Championship of Trading will have access to Benzinga's Live Squawk product.
Investors will also gain exposure to TradeZero's newly patented short-selling tools.
Here are the top four traders in the first portion of the contest as of Oct. 7:
<ol>
<li>Andrea S: $1,088,390.70</li>
<li>Sneha O.: $366,650.00</li>
<li>Stephen L.: $330,021.80</li>
<li>Benjamin H.: $325,733.04</li>
</ol>
The tenth-place trader has a balance of $217,997.50, meaning the top 10 traders have all gained at least 100% since the contest began.
First Place Held Down: The leaderboard has featured frequent changes among the top 10, but the leader has been fairly consistent. Andrea S. has been in the top 10 for<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/top-stories/24/10/41126924/benzinga-world-championship-of-trading-powered-by-tradezero-contestants-up-90-in-just-2-weeks-join-n"> three weeks straight</a>, with a first-place position in the last two weekly updates. Andrea S. had a balance of $810,808.75 last week, which means she added nearly $200,000 to her contest trading balance over the last trading week.
In an interview with Benzinga, Andrea revealed she is working on her PhD in mathematics and keeping her eyes on the market during the trading contest.
"It's been wild. I didn't expect to end up in first place," Andrea said.
The contestant said she has learned more about finance and trading in recent years and did some internships in the quant trading sector. Andrea said she has applied the things she learned to trading and sought out to see if they would work in a retail trading contest.
"I think I got lucky."
With a goal of winning the contest now, Andrea is now using strategies that are not like her regular trading.
"I'm going to take on much riskier positions."
The trader said they recently bought some call options in the Chinese stock PDD Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PDD#NASDAQ">PDD</a>) after seeing the stocks was up thanks to news of a China stimulus.
Andrea has also been looking at semiconductor stocks recently, naming Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, NVIDIA Corporation and Super Micro Computer.

Insurance companies operating in Florida face significant challenges following two intense hurricanes: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41231817/hurricane-milton-dire-warning-if-you-choose-to-stay-youre-going-to-die-officials-encourage-writing-n">Helene and Milton</a>. 
What Happened: After Hurricane Helene, losses for private insurers were <a href="https://www.wusf.org/weather/2024-09-25/helene-could-cause-billions-in-private-federal-insurance-losses">estimated</a> at $3 to $6 billion. Hurricane Milton, expected to make landfall Wednesday on Florida's Gulf Coast near Tampa, is adding further strain to Florida&#8217;s insurance market.
High claim volumes, rising premiums and an exodus of insurers already slammed customers. With Hurricane Milton looming, the market could experience further destabilization.
The average annual premium for homeowners' insurance in Florida has surged to $10,996, making it the highest in the nation. 
Insurify <a href="https://insurify.com/homeowners-insurance/report/home-insurance-price-projections/">projects</a> that this number will rise by an additional 7% in 2024, bringing the average to $11,759. This figure is nearly four times the national average, driven by multiple factors including the increased frequency and severity of hurricanes, rising costs of building materials, and issues with reinsurance. 
Florida has also seen a significant number of insurance companies pull out of the state, further exacerbating the situation​.

Stocks To Watch: The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41239644/hurricane-milton-evacuations-a-matter-of-life-and-death-biden-says-feds-bostic-says-storm-could-">ongoing hurricane activity in Florida</a> is expected to impact several major publicly traded insurance companies.
Key insurers facing challenges include: 
<ul>
<li>Allstate Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALL#NYSE">ALL</a>) </li>
<li>Travelers Companies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TRV#NYSE">TRV</a>) </li>
<li>Progressive Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PGR#NYSE">PGR</a>) </li>
<li>State Farm (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STFGX#NASDAQ">STFGX</a>) </li>
</ul>
Citizens Property Insurance Corp. covers more than 1.4 million policies but with much higher premiums, averaging $21,707 annually​. Dubbed Florida's insurer of last resort, the company is transferring more than 648,000 policies to private insurers, per <a href="https://www.clickorlando.com/news/local/2024/10/04/what-citizens-insurance-depopulation-means-for-florida-homeowners/">Click Orlando</a>.
These companies are experiencing heavy financial strain due to increased claims, which will likely lead to higher premiums and reduced coverage availability. Smaller, regional insurers operating in Florida may also face insolvency or further pressure to exit the market.
Why It Matters: According <a href="https://www.insurancebusinessmag.com/us/news/property/florida-insurers-deny-nearly-half-of-hurricane-claims-ratings-agency-says-508765.aspx">to</a> Insurance Business Magazine, citing Weiss Ratings data, several large Florida insurers denied nearly half of homeowner claims closed in 2023. 
Among these carriers were:
<ul>
<li>Castle Key Indemnity Co., denied 47.1% of claims</li>
<li>Castle Key Insurance Company, at 46%.</li>
<li>State Farm Florida Insurance Company, denied 46.4% </li>
</ul>
Coverage is often denied to conserve cash and avoid bankruptcy.
How We Got Here: While it&#8217;s difficult to attribute any single hurricane directly to climate change, many scientists say that climate change exacerbates the frequency of extreme weather events.
Warmer ocean temperatures, fueled by global warming, provide more energy for storms, making hurricanes such as Helene and Milton more intense.
Rising sea levels also contribute to more severe storm surges. Additionally, changing weather patterns may cause slower-moving storms, leading to more rainfall and prolonged damage in affected areas. Overall, climate change plays a role in the increasing severity of storms.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis <a href="https://www.flgov.com/2024/10/08/governor-ron-desantis-issues-updates-on-state-preparedness-efforts-for-hurricane-milton-3/">declared </a>a state of emergency for 51 Florida counties. So far, he has generally avoided directly linking the increasing intensity of hurricanes in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/climate-change">Florida to climate change</a>.

Honeywell International , Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HON#NASDAQ">HON</a>) today experienced a Power Inflow, a significant event for those who follow where smart money goes and value order flow analytics in their trading decisions.&nbsp;
Today, at 10:06 AM on October, 7th, a significant trading signal occurred for Honeywell International, Inc. as it demonstrated a Power Inflow at a price of $207.58. This indicator is crucial for traders who want to know directionally where institutions and so-called "smart money" moves in the market. They see the value of utilizing order flow analytics to guide their trading decisions. The Power Inflow points to a possible uptrend in Honeywell&#8217;s stock, marking a potential entry point for traders looking to capitalize on the expected upward movement. Traders with this signal closely watch for sustained momentum in Honeywell International, Inc. stock price, interpreting this event as a bullish sign.
Signal description
Order flow analytics, aka transaction or market flow analysis, separate and study both the retail and institutional volume rate of orders (flow). It involves analyzing the flow of buy and sell orders, along with size, timing, and other associated characteristics and patterns, to gain insights and make more informed trading decisions. This particular indicator is interpreted by active traders as a bullish signal.&nbsp;
The Power Inflow occurs within the first two hours of the market open and generally signals the trend that helps gauge the stock&#8217;s overall direction, powered by institutional activity in the stock, for the remainder of the day.&nbsp;
By incorporating order flow analytics into their trading strategies, market participants can better interpret market conditions, identify trading opportunities, and potentially improve their trading performance. But let's not forget that while watching smart money flow can provide valuable insights, it is crucial to incorporate effective risk management strategies to protect capital and mitigate potential losses. Employing a consistent and effective risk management plan helps traders navigate the uncertainties of the market in a more controlled and calculated manner, increasing the likelihood of long-term success

Tradepulse Power Inflow Alert: Honeywell International Inc. Receives Alert And Rises 1.6% During Trading Day

<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
In the market as in life, you get what you pay for. And that means stocks under $20 present a tricky narrative. Understandably, the topic gets plenty of traction. The biggest blue-chip enterprises tend to command three-digit price tags, if not greater. It just leaves regular folks on the outside looking in, especially if they don&rsquo;t have access to fractional equity capabilities.



To remedy this situation, some investors turn to cheap securities. However, the problem with this approach is that sometimes (many times), cheap valuations become even cheaper. When an organization prints gobs of red ink, there&rsquo;s usually a reason for it &mdash; and typically not a good one. Thus, it&rsquo;s more prudent to stick with quality names.



However, modestly priced equities have their place. Besides, with thousands upon thousands of opportunities available, it&rsquo;s practically impossible to cover all of them adequately. Some ideas simply fall through the cracks. These stocks under $20 deserve a closer inspection.



<h2>Innodata (INOD)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/ai-stocks1600-6-300x169.png" alt="Business growth concept. Businessman using AI, global business network, data analysis of financial and banking, AI stocks, business strategy, technology and data connection, security, networking. AI stocks to watch"><div>Source: Gmx Pixel / Shutterstock.com</div></div>A data engineering specialist, Innodata (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/inod-stock-quote/">INOD</a>) also focuses on digital transformation and artificial intelligence. The company helps organizations extract utility out of their data for superior decision-making and efficiency. Further, its leveraging of AI should make INOD stock an intriguing idea for speculators.



One of the smaller enterprises, Innodata has enjoyed a strong performance this year. Nevertheless, it&rsquo;s prone to wild trading activity. Although INOD stock has witnessed volatility in recent sessions, its sales multiple is elevated at 4.8X. In contrast, in the prior year, the average price-to-sales ratio sat at 3.02X.



Still, patient speculators should keep INOD on their watchlist of stocks under $20. For fiscal 2024, analysts believe that <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/inod/analysis">sales may reach $121.57 million</a>. During the trailing 12 months (TTM), the company generated revenue of $94.44 million. In the following year, sales could hit just over $157 million.



Assuming a shares outstanding count of 28.75 million, INOD is trading around 2.8X projected 2025 sales. That makes it an even more tempting offer.



<h2>ReposiTrak (TRAK)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/supply-chain-300x169.jpg" alt="image of supply chain."><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div>Focused on asset tracking and management solutions, ReposiTrak (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/trak-stock-quote/">TRAK</a>) offers robust acumen in the Internet of Things (or IoT) and cloud-based solutions. With machines increasingly communicating with each other, ReposiTrak enjoys strong relevance. Also, the company&rsquo;s services can help foster operational efficiencies for its enterprise-level customers.



At the moment, TRAK stock carries a trailing-year sales multiple of 15.95X. That&rsquo;s quite high. During the first quarter of this year, the equity averaged 15.07X. Overall, in the past year, the stat came out to an average of 10.84X.



That said, the lone expert that&rsquo;s covering the company believes that fiscal 2024 sales may hit $20.34 million. If so, that would imply a 6.5% lift from last year&rsquo;s print of $19.1 million. In the following year, revenue <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/trak/analysis">could rise again to $23.02 million</a>. That would translate to a growth rate of 13.2% from projected 2024 sales.



Presently, ReposiTrak features a shares outstanding count of 18.22 million. Should this stat hold true, TRAK would trade at 13.4X next year&rsquo;s revenue. That&rsquo;s still hot but the trend is moving in the right direction. Thus, it&rsquo;s one of the stocks under $20 to watch.



<h2>Paymentus (PAY)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/digital-payment-300x169.jpg" alt="A concept image of mobile payment with a smart phone for a cup of coffee. affordable payment stocks"><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div>A cloud-based bill payment technology, Paymentus (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/pay-stock-quote/">PAY</a>) offers financial technology (fintech) services for businesses and institutions. It&rsquo;s an important player among stocks under $20 thanks to its ability to foster efficient and secure payment processing. Increasingly, transactions are conducted online and therefore demand for digital conveniences should only rise.



Despite the relevancies, PAY stock is trading at a relatively reasonable valuation. Currently, shares exchange hands at 3.77X sales. During Q1, this stat averaged a lofty 4.63X. In the previous quarter, the metric was 3.81X. Overall, in the past year, the multiple landed on average at 3.64X.



Moving forward, analysts anticipate significant business expansion. In fiscal 2024, sales could rise to $749 million, up 21.9% from last year&rsquo;s print of $614.49 million. In the following year, revenue might hit $889.27 million. Further, the <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/pay/analysis">high-side estimate calls for $907.22 million</a>.



Assuming a shares outstanding count of 21.91 million, PAY stock would be trading at 0.47X projected 2025 high-side sales. That might be too good of a deal for some speculators to pass up.



<h2>ACM Research (ACMR)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/acmr-stock-1-300x169.jpg" alt="a magnifying glass enlarges the ACM logo on a website"><div>Source: Pavel Kapysh / Shutterstock.com</div></div>A semiconductor specialist that specializes in process equipment, ACM Research (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/acmr-stock-quote/">ACMR</a>) offers innovative solutions that help boost the efficiency and performance of semiconductor manufacturing. While it&rsquo;s not the most popular idea in terms of brand awareness, ACM offers critical &ldquo;background&rdquo; services.



Enticingly, ACMR stock trades around 1.84X revenue. In Q1, the sales multiple averaged 3.39X. Throughout the past year, the premium stood at 2.71X. Therefore, shares of the tech specialist can be had for a relative discount. It&rsquo;s also worth pointing out that ACMR trades at 1.46X book value, below the prior year average of 1.85X.



Looking out to year&rsquo;s end, covering experts believe that sales may soar to $710.11 million. If so, that would represent a lift of 27.3% from last year&rsquo;s haul of $557.72 million. And in fiscal 2025, revenue could reach $872.19 million, with a <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/acmr/analysis">high-side estimate of $984.8 million</a>.



Assuming a shares outstanding count of 56.99 million, ACMR is trading at 1.13X 2025 high-end sales. It makes a tempting case for stocks under $20.



<h2>McEwen Mining (MUX)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/gold1600c-300x169.jpg" alt="Gold nuggets on top of American paper money representing gold stocks"><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div>Based in Canada, McEwen Mining (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/mux-stock-quote/">MUX</a>) engages in the exploration, development and production of gold, silver and copper. Fundamentally, McEwen is attractive due to potential monetary policy pivots. If the Federal Reserve lowers the benchmark interest rate, that could be net positive for precious metals and core commodities. That should help MUX stock.



Right now, the mining firm features a price-to-sales ratio of 2.23. That&rsquo;s lower than the <a href="https://fullratio.com/ps-ratio-by-industry">gold sector&rsquo;s average multiple of 2.61X</a>. Further, in Q1 of this year, the metric stood at 2.82X. In the prior year, the stat averaged 2.68X. This implies that McEwen could grow into its prior valuation given the right catalyst. That could come in the form of interest rate cuts.



Notably, analysts believe that by the end of the current fiscal year, revenue could rise to $303.92 million. If so, that would imply a growth rate of 33.8% from last year&rsquo;s haul of $227.22 million. In the following year, <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/mux/analysis">sales could move up to $319.43 million</a>, with a high-side view of $524.02 million.



Thanks to the projected expansion of the business, MUX ranks among the stocks under $20.



<h2>Vaalco Energy (EGY)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/oil1600h-300x169.jpg" alt="miniature oil barrel and oil well figures on top of stack of money"><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div>A hydrocarbon energy specialist, Vaalco Energy (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/egy-stock-quote/">EGY</a>) engages in the exploration, development and production of crude oil and natural gas. Also known as the upstream component of the hydrocarbon value chain, Vaalco may enjoy increased demand due mainly to geopolitical flashpoints. Such conflicts may spill over and disrupt global oil inventories, which could cynically boost demand for EGY stock.



Right now, shares trade hands at 1.64X sales. To be sure, this stat comes at a premium relative to the prior year&rsquo;s average multiple of 1.07X. However, the upstream oil and gas sector features an average multiple of 1.93X. Therefore, EGY stock potentially has more room to grow.



Where the narrative gets a bit tricky is projections for this fiscal year. The consensus view calls for sales of $407.05 million. However, that&rsquo;s down almost 11% from last year&rsquo;s print of $455.07 million. Nevertheless, the high-side view calls for a <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/egy/analysis">top line of $494.8 million</a>. Further, the optimists are modeling for fiscal 2025 revenue to hit $567.05 million.



If anything, Vaalco is one of the best stocks under $20 if you want to hedge against an energy crisis.



<h2>Coursera (COUR)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/coursera-300x169.jpg" alt="The app page for Coursera is displayed on a smartphone screen with a website in the background."><div>Source: Postmodern Studio / Shutterstock.com</div></div>One of the riskiest ideas to consider among stocks under $20, Coursera (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/cour-stock-quote/">COUR</a>) will be criticized for being a falling knife. Further, the rise of AI supposedly threatens the business model. However, I have a different view. The company specializes in providing an online learning platform. It&rsquo;s not just about acquiring new skills: Coursera offers professional certifications and college degree credits.



In other words, the company offers advantages that AI can&rsquo;t touch. That said, I&rsquo;m not na&iuml;ve to the heavy losses that COUR stock incurred since makings its public market debut. Nevertheless, it appears that since June, Coursera has been charting a series of higher lows. I don&rsquo;t want to jump ahead of myself but there could be a growth opportunity here.



Analysts are looking at revenue of just under $700 million by the end of this fiscal year. If so, that would be up 10.1% from last year&rsquo;s print of $635.76 million. Further, fiscal 2025 revenue could soar to $786.82 million, up 12.4% from projected 2024 sales.



With the right catalysts, COUR could fly. It&rsquo;s worth keeping on the radar.
