Apple, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) filed a lawsuit in California last week, accusing former senior design engineer Di Liu of stealing confidential company information before<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/07/46207800/whats-going-on-with-snap-shares-today"> leaving to work at </a>Snap Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNAP#NYSE">SNAP</a>).&nbsp;
The Details: Apple alleged that Liu downloaded thousands of sensitive files and stored them in his personal cloud accounts during his final days at the company, according to <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/07/01/apple-lawsuit-trade-secrets-di-liu-snap.html">CNBC</a>.&nbsp;
Liu, who worked on the Vision Pro headset, reportedly did not disclose that he was joining Snap, a competitor in the smart glasses market, when he resigned late last year.&nbsp;

As a result, Apple granted him the standard two-week transition period, during which he allegedly accessed and copied proprietary files.
Apple's legal team stated that Liu used his company credentials to transfer documents containing project code names, technical details, product designs, and supply chain information.&nbsp;
Apple also suggested that the information Liu took could benefit Snap's augmented reality products, though Apple did not take legal action against Snap itself.
Snap responded by saying they found no evidence that the allegations related to Liu's work at their company. Apple sought damages and requested a forensic review of Liu's devices to ensure all sensitive data was deleted.&nbsp;
Why It Matters: Snap<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45893545/snapchat-parent-to-launch-light-weight-ar-smart-glasses-to-compete-with-meta-apple"> recently announced</a> that it will launch Specs, a pair of lightweight, immersive AR glasses, in 2026.&nbsp;
Specs are described as an ultra-powerful wearable computer built into a lightweight glasses frame, featuring see-through lenses that blend digital experiences with the physical world.
In related industry news, Meta is reportedly preparing to launch a new version of its smart glasses, priced between $1,000 and $1,400, featuring a built-in screen and hand-gesture controls, as competition intensifies with Apple's $3,500 Vision Pro.

A <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/gaming/25/06/46082294/netflix-is-turning-squid-game-into-something-bigger-as-fortnite-tries-to-keep-up">third and final season</a> of "Squid Game" has been out for less than a week and is already among the most-watched premieres in Netflix Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) history.
Here's a look at the first week viewership for "Squid Game" season 3 and how it stacks up in history.
What Happened: The third season of "Squid Game" fell shy of the record premiere week figures from<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42751367/netflix-posts-record-debut-with-squid-game-season-2-heres-how-many-people-watched-show"> the second season, </a>but managed to break a Netflix record of the most views in a show's first three days.
Season 3 of "Squid Game" brought in 60.1 million <a href="https://www.netflix.com/tudum/top10/tv-non-english">views </a>in its first three days with 368.4 million hours watched. The show ranked number one in 93 countries.
Also ranking in the top 10 for non-English series was the second season of "Squid Game" with 2.8 million views, to rank third and the first season of the series ranking sixth with 1.7 million views.
For comparison, the second season premiere had 68 million views in its first week, which included four days and was around the Christmas 2024 holiday. With the extra day and the holiday, the second season likely had an unfair advantage in setting the record over the third season. Season 2 debuted at number one in 92 countries. The second season broke the Netflix premiere viewership record of 50.1 million previously set by "Wednesday."
During the second season's premiere week, 487.6 million hours were watched. The first season ranked third during the same week with 8.1 million views, which is more than the number watching the first two seasons combined during the third season's premiere week.

Why It's Important: The third and final season of "Squid Game" will continue to climb the all-time <a href="https://www.netflix.com/tudum/top10/most-popular/tv-non-english">leaderboard</a>, where the first two seasons currently lead. The first season ranks first all time with 265.2 million views in its first four weeks, followed by the second season with 192.6 million views in its first four weeks. This ranks first and second among non-English series.
The third season already ranks ninth among non-English series and could end up in the top three based on historical interest in the series.
"Wednesday" tops the English series viewership all-time list with 252.1 million views in its first four weeks.
The end of "Squid Game" could be a historical event for Netflix as its top series ever and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/entertainment/25/06/46180148/netflixs-squid-game-ends-or-does-it">could see the company</a> turn to spinoffs and remakes to extend the life of the series.
Outside of the finale of "Squid Game," Netflix has new seasons of "Wednesday" and "Stranger Things" coming in the second half of 2025, along with live sports and other content.
NFLX Price Action: Netflix stock closed down 3.40% to $1,293.60 on Tuesday versus a 52-week trading range of $588.43 to $1,341.15. Netflix stock is up over 45% year-to-date in 2025.

Squid Game Final Season Falls Shy Of Record: Here's How Many Watched Season 3

A recent call to &#8220;<a href="https://x.com/DaveRamsey/status/1938614043801014663">The Ramsey Show</a>&#8221; took a personal and unexpected turn when a listener shared a troubling story about a so-called gift from his grandmother.
&#8220;About a year back, my grandma gave my wife and I a gift of $9,000 for a home. We were grateful and we offered to pay her back, but she told us, &#8216;Don&#8217;t worry about it.&#8217; She was so happy to help us out,&#8221; the caller said.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">&#8216;She Wants All The Money Back Plus Interest&#8217;</h2>
Things took a turn when the grandmother recently reached out, not with a friendly check-in, but with a demand.
&#8220;She wrote us a letter in the mail saying that she wants all the money back, plus interest, and in the letter never mentioned that it was a gift to us,&#8221; the caller explained. The total amount she now says she's owed? $12,000.
The couple still has paperwork showing the money was filed as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44884152/can-i-gift-my-son-17000-for-student-loans-and-get-a-tax-deduction-heres-what-suze-orman-says">gift for tax purposes</a>. When host Dave Ramsey asked the caller about their income, he shared that they bring in about $70,000 after taxes.
Ramsey called it like he saw it. &#8220;Okay, is she mentally ill or is she just a liar?&#8221; he asked. The caller replied, &#8220;She&#8217;s a liar. She&#8217;s been diagnosed as a narcissist and a liar.&#8221;
&#8220;You do not morally owe her a dime,&#8221; he said and instructed him to tell her over the phone, &#8220;We have paperwork that shows that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-give-stock-as-a-gift">it&#8217;s a gift</a>. I love you but I don&#8217;t love this behavior and I&#8217;m not going to pay you because I don&#8217;t owe you.&#8221;

Still, Ramsey acknowledged the emotional fallout likely to follow: &#8220;She&#8217;s going to be Mount Vesuvius because she likes to pull people&#8217;s strings and when they don&#8217;t dance at the end of her string she has a little fit.&#8221;
The caller confirmed this had been a lifelong pattern. &#8220;This is 100% what this woman is,&#8221; he said. Ramsey added, &#8220;I kind of think when you give her 12 grand, you&#8217;re probably going to get a letter that goes &#8216;Oh yeah, I forgot about the other thousand you still owe.'&#8221;
He went on to say, &#8220;I don&#8217;t know if you&#8217;re ever going to make her happy. So I&#8217;m not sure paying her is going to work. I am sure not paying her is going to piss her off.&#8221;
The caller agreed, adding, &#8220;Absolutely.&#8221;
Ramsey's final word of advice? Confront her with the facts and set boundaries. &#8220;It&#8217;s a lie. And you told me this, and I&#8217;m going with what you told me, and we&#8217;re not going to pay you.&#8221;
While legal obligations may be absent, the emotional toll of standing firm against family pressure can be heavy.

$100 Invested In Crocs 5 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

Rocket Lab Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RKLB#NASDAQ">RKLB</a>) shares are up more than 650% over the past year and the company is on a hot streak of rapid, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/space/25/06/46185205/rocket-lab-breaks-records-and-stock-up-640-in-past-year-ast-spacemobile-impresses-defense-kuiper-grows">successful launches. </a>
Last weekend, Rocket Lab completed two rocket launches from the same site within 48 hours, a record turnaround for the company.&nbsp;
What To Know: Rocket Lab CEO Peter Beck<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V7NAK5xMN1w"> joined </a>CNBC's Closing Bell Overtime on Monday where he highlighted strong demand for launches from both commercial and government customers, especially as the market seeks <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/46119769/rocket-lab-rklb-stock-hits-a-new-all-time-high-whats-going-on">more competition</a> beyond SpaceX.&nbsp;

In fact, the CEO said that demand is one thing he does not worry about.&nbsp;
"I worry about a lot of things at night, but that's probably not one of them — is demand," Beck said. 
Rocket Lab's smaller Electron rocket is seeing increased use, often launching entire satellite constellations, and its upcoming Neutron rocket aims to break SpaceX's dominance in the medium-lift market.
The company has<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/space/25/05/45633311/rocket-lab-stock-surges-on-geost-acquisition-strengthening-companys-positioning-for-golden-dome"> also expanded </a>through acquisitions, including Geost and a German firm, Manaric. These moves allow Rocket Lab to offer end-to-end services by building not just rockets and spacecraft, but also payloads, which strengthens its position in national security and defense.
Beck noted that about half of Rocket Lab's business comes from commercial customers and half from governments, with national security becoming increasingly important as global instability drives up demand for space assets.
RKLB Price Action: Rocket Lab shares are up 656% over the past year and ended Tuesday's session at $34.33, according to<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw"> Benzinga Pro.</a>&nbsp;

650% Later, Rocket Lab CEO Isn't One Bit Worried

Summer may be just getting underway, but plenty of parents are already planning their spending for the upcoming school year.&nbsp;
Nearly 75% of parents plan to spend the same or more on back-to-school shopping this year, a consumer survey from <a href="https://www.pwc.com/us/en/industries/consumer-markets/library/back-to-school-education-spending.html">PwC</a> found. And more than one in three parents actually plan to spend more this year than they have previously.
Economic uncertainties and the effects of the tariffs had many experts uncertain as to whether or not back-to-school shopping would drop sharply this fall. But PwC's findings seem to indicate that inflationary fatigue won't curb demand after all.

"A lot of it is necessities. It's people knowing that they're going to have to get this specific book, or these specific supplies for school or they require technology for their kids," PwC Global Retail Leader Kelly Pedersen told <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/06/24/back-to-school-consumer-spending.html">CNBC</a>. "This is just a necessary spend."
However, anxiety about the impacts of tariffs hasn't entirely dissipated. "A lot of the average consumers in the U.S. sort of feel this cloud hanging above of, when are the tariffs going to hit, and what are those going to do to prices," Pedersen said.
Several popular back-to-school retailers, like Walmart (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WMT#NYSE">WMT</a>) and Target (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TGT#NYSE">TGT</a>), have said they plan to raise prices as a result of the tariffs. "We will do our best to keep our prices as low as possible. But given the magnitude of the tariffs, even at the reduced levels announced this week, we aren&#8217;t able to absorb all the pressure given the reality of narrow retail margins, Walmart CEO Doug McMillon said on an <a href="https://corporate.walmart.com/content/dam/corporate/documents/newsroom/2025/05/15/walmart-releases-q1-fy26-earnings/q1-fy26-earnings-call-transcript.pdf">earnings call</a> in May.

Similarly, in the company's <a href="https://corporate.target.com/getmedia/9c383747-166d-4310-b91f-cd77b7d06433/2025-May-21-TGT-Transcript.pdf">Q1 earnings call</a>, Target CEO Brian Cornell said that price increases may happen, but that they would be a "very last resort" as the company's primary goal remains "supporting American families as they manage their budgets."&nbsp;
PwC also cautions that the mid-May tariff rollback, which fueled a rush of exports from China, may cause uneven inventory availability. However, it remains optimistic that retailers will have remedied these supply chain concerns by the time back-to-school shopping is in full swing.
For parents looking to save money this fall, prioritizing discounts and shopping early are the two most common methods for cutting costs. Reusing items and cutting back in specific categories like technology and clothing are also popular strategies.
The study also found that one in five parents plan to use AI tools to help them discover the best deals on back-to-school items. "This helps create a growing imperative for retailers to enhance their digital channels and search visibility for AI-powered discovery," the report said.&nbsp;

While Musk is armed with billions of dollars and has large influence worldwide, he could face an uphill battle with a third party.
What Happened: Musk has been at odds with the Big Beautiful Bill<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45845332/musk-vs-trump-poll-says-this-is-the-person-to-support-in-feud-while-near-majority-say-they-would-publicly-support-neither"> in recent months</a>, creating a falling out of sorts with President Donald Trump and sending shares of Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) lower on several occasions.
Once friends and coworkers in the White House, the battle between Musk and Trump is very public once again with Musk's criticism of the bill backed by Trump that would increase America's debt.
"Anyone who campaigned on the PROISE of REDUCING SPENDING, but continues to vote on the BIGGEST DEBT ceiling increase in HISTORY will see their face on this poster in the primary next year," Musk <a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1939861925514682487">tweeted </a>with a poster featuring Pinocchio and saying LIAR in big letters.
This tweet from Musk was ran as an ad on the social media platform for some time Monday night, suggesting Musk was spending money to spread the word as the bill made its way through the Senate.
"If this insane spending bill passes, the America Party will be formed the next day. Our country needs an alternative to the Democrat-Republican uniparty so that the people actually have a VOICE," another <a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1939806847504105683">tweet </a>from Musk said.
The recent tweets from Musk come as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46102335/democratic-party-implodes-as-maga-revolts-can-musk-yang-build-third-party">Benzinga recently highlighted</a> the potential rise of a third party or independent candidate to win the New York mayor race after Zohran Mamdani won the primary and remains unpopular with many voter groups in America.
Former presidential candidate Andrew Yang established the Forward Party and, according to The Hill, reached out to billionaire&nbsp;Elon Musk&nbsp;as recently as this month to collaborate on a third party.
Yang&nbsp;reached out to Musk at a time when Musk was feuding with President&nbsp;Donald Trump&nbsp;and even polled his X followers to see if a third party that represents those who identify in the middle politically should be launched. Over 5.6 million people voted in the&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1930685402631053403" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">poll,</a><a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1930685402631053403" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;</a>with 80.4% saying yes, although not all the votes were likely from eligible American voters.
What's Next: Musk's previous poll suggests that voters could be ready for another option outside of the Republican and Democratic parties.
It's unclear how far Musk would go with the potential America Party, and if it would be just for Senate and Congressional races in the next elections, or go all the way to the presidency with the billionaire taking on the two major parties that have won every presidential election since 1852.
The last time a president not from the Democratic or Republican Party was in office was 1853 with Millard Fillmore finishing out the rest of his term under the Whig Party. Fillmore replaced Zachary Taylor after his death. Fillmore failed to win the Whig Party nomination for the 1852 election and the party later broke up in 1854.
Taylor won the 1848 presidential election for the Whig Party and is the last presidential winner outside of today's two major political parties.
Since America's independence from Great Britain, the president has come from only five major political parties: Democrat, Republican, Whig, Democratic-Republican and Federalist.
During the first 100 years of America, multiple parties won and parties changed names and new parties were created. Through the lifetime of anyone reading this story, the Democratic and Republican parties have been the only two to win presidencies and many of the major races throughout the country.
Taking a look at past presidential elections, it has been some time since a third-party candidate posed a major challenge. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who was viewed as a potential contender to gain a significant percent of the vote in the 2024 election, eventually dropped out and supported Trump.
George Wallace was the last third-party candidate to receive any electoral college votes, winning five states in the 1968 presidential election.
Ross Perot is the most notable third-party candidate in recent years, placing third in 1992 and 1996 with 18.9% and 8.4% of the vote, respectively. John Anderson also secured a third-place finish with 6.6% of the vote in the 1980 presidential election.
The last third-party candidate to place second in a presidential election was Theodore Roosevelt in 1912. Roosevelt ran as a Progressive and lost to Woodrow Wilson. Roosevelt had previously served as president from 1901 to 1909.
While it remains to be seen if Musk will create a new party, betting odds are rising in support of the billionaire's move.
Polymarket betting <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/will-elon-musk-create-a-new-political-party-by?tid=1751399530721">odds </a>for Musk to create a new political party by Dec. 31 stand at 43%.
On <a href="https://kalshi.com/markets/kxnewpartymusk/musk-new-party#kxnewpartymusk">Kalshi</a>, the odds for Musk creating a new political party this year (2025) stand at 47%, up from just 5% on June 30.
<iframe loading="lazy" src="https://kalshi.com/external-widgets/events/KXNEWPARTYMUSK/markets/KXNEWPARTYMUSK-26?color_scheme=light&#038;widget_size=medium&#038;variant=a" width="488px" height="242px" style="border:0"></iframe>
Times have changed since 1853, but Elon Musk's ownership of X and his massive following could ignite a third-party movement — especially with the billions he could pour into an election. Whether he's serious, and whether he can reshape political history for the first time in more than 170 years, remains to be seen.

U.S. Bancorp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USB#NYSE">USB</a>) commented on the results of the Federal Reserve's Dodd-Frank Act Stress Test (DFAST) conducted in accordance with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.
Based on the 2025 stress test results and current rule requirements, the company's preliminary stress capital buffer (SCB) is 2.6 percent for the period beginning October 1, 2025, and ending on September 30, 2026. The SCB, when added to the Basel III Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) capital to risk-weighted assets ratio minimum of 4.5 percent, requires the company to maintain a CET1 ratio at or above 7.1 percent throughout this period.
The Federal Reserve has stated that it expects to finalize the SCB for all firms by August 31, 2025.
All U.S. Bancorp regulatory ratios continue to reflect strong capital levels and exceed "well-capitalized" requirements. The company's CET1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio using the Basel III standardized approach was 10.8 percent as of March 31, 2025.

<h2>Unveiling the Story Behind Snap</h2>
Snap is a technology company best known for its marquis social media application Snapchat, a visual messaging application that has amassed hundreds of millions of users.

Users can now enjoy augmented reality, or AR, lenses, content from famous creators and celebrities, updates about local events, and more. Although the app offers a paid subscription option with premium features, advertising sales produce most of the app's revenue.

<h3>Trane Technologies P/E Compared to Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of 28.35 in the Building Products industry, Trane Technologies Inc. has a higher P/E ratio of 36.03.

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.
