<li>Charles Schwab head Rick Wurster has offered a timeline for the firm to launch spot cryptocurrency trading.</li>
<li>Charles Schwab is seeing significant interest in its cryptocurrency business.</li>
<li>The firm has recently inked a cryptocurrency-related partnership with a Trump-controlled firm.</li>
</ul>
Over the past few years, more and more traditional finance firms have leaned into the cryptocurrency space, seeking to capture the growing demand for emerging digital assets. The trend only looks set to intensify under President Donald Trump&#8216;s administration, as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/04/44816420/trump-administration-is-only-looking-to-accumulate-bitcoin-bo-hines-says">he has thrown his weight behind the industry</a> unlike any president before.
Charles Schwab (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SCHW#NYSE">SCHW</a>) is preparing to expand its cryptocurrency services.&nbsp;

In November, Charles Schwab President <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42136031/charles-schwab-prepares-for-spot-cryptocurrency-trading-under-new-leadership">Rick Wurster said</a> that the firm, which already offered cryptocurrency exchange-traded funds and futures, would offer spot cryptocurrency trading once it believed that the regulatory environment in the U.S. had improved. Now, with several regulatory agencies <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/02/43857831/sec-scales-back-crypto-enforcement-expands-focus-to-cyber-fraud">changing their tune on the nascent market</a> months into the Trump administration, Wurster has offered a concrete timeline for the move.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Spot Cryptocurrency Trading Coming To Charles Schwab Soon?</h2>
Wurster said that Charles Schwab will likely launch spot cryptocurrency trading services &#8220;in the next 12 months,&#8221; in a Q1 earnings <a href="https://seekingalpha.com/article/4775965-the-charles-schwab-corporation-schw-2025-spring-business-update-conference-call-transcript">call</a> last week, a move that will better position the firm to compete with firms like Robinhood Markets (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>) and Fidelity.
Wurster disclosed this timeline when asked whether the firm intended to shift from its cautious approach to the cryptocurrency market to better compete with its peers.
&#8220;Our expectation is that with the changing regulatory environment, we are hopeful and likely to be able to launch direct spot crypto and our goal is to do that in the next 12 months and we&#8217;re on a great path to be able to do that,&#8221; he said.
Trending: BlackRock is calling 2025 the year of alternative assets. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">One firm from NYC has quietly built a group of 60,000+ investors who have all joined in on an alt asset class previously exclusive to billionaires like Bezos and Gates.</a>
Indeed, Charles Schwab appears to be taking significant strides toward its goal of offering more cryptocurrency services. The firm in February <a href="https://riabiz.com/a/2025/2/20/charles-schwab-corp-names-head-of-digital-assets-with-no-cryptocurrency-chops-but-entrusted-by-inner-circle-to-make-big-critical-decisions-fast">named</a> Joseph Vietri, its&nbsp; branch network head, to the newly created role of head of digital assets.
These steps come as Wurster said Charles Schwab is seeing significant interest in its cryptocurrency-facing business.
&#8220;We are doing well in crypto already today,&#8221; he said during last week&#8217;s call, citing growth in new accounts and a 400% increase in visits to Charles Schwab&#8217;s cryptocurrency website. He said that the data suggested that market participants are seeking &#8220;a trusted brand&#8221; to work with.
&#8220;We&#8217;re confident we will be a great destination for investors interested in crypto,&#8221; Wurster said.
Meanwhile, Charles Schwab&#8217;s planned launch of spot trading services is not the only way it is expanding its involvement in the cryptocurrency space.

Here's When $10T Broker Charles Schwab Will Rollout Spot Crypto Trading, Chief Rick Wurster Says

U.S. stocks climbed for a third straight session, notching their longest winning streak since early April. The Nasdaq jumped 2.7% to close at 17,166.04, while the S&amp;P 500 gained 2% to finish at 5,484.77. Investor sentiment was lifted by upbeat corporate earnings and easing trade tensions, pushing the Dow Jones Industrial Average up 1.2% to 40,093.40.
These are the top stocks that gained the attention of retail traders and investors throughout the day:
Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>)
Alphabet&#8217;s Class A stock rose 2.53%, closing at $159.28, with an intraday high of $159.59 and a low of $155.79. The stock&#8217;s 52-week range is between $140.53 and $207.05. The Class A shares gained 4.8% to $166.95 in after-hours trading. The Class C shares ended Thursday higher by 2.4% at $161.47. In the after-hours trading, the Class C shares rose 4.6% to $16.8.95. The tech giant reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44995955/alphabet-q1-earnings-highlights-google-search-youtube-cloud-show-robust-momentum">strong first-quarter results</a>, highlighting robust momentum in Google Search, YouTube, and Cloud services, which contributed to its positive market performance. Alphabet reported first-quarter revenue of $90.23 billion, which is an increase of 12% on a year-over-year basis. The figure exceeded the Street consensus of $89.2 billion.
Intel Corporation&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INTC#NASDAQ">INTC</a>)
Intel shares climbed 4.37%, ending the day at $21.49, with a high of $21.55 and a low of $20.88. The 52-week high and low are $37.16 and $17.67, respectively. Intel <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/44996628/intel-q1-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-beat-shares-tumble-on-weak-guidance-chipmaker-plans-swift-actions-to-drive-efficiency">beat first-quarter expectations</a> with $12.67 billion in revenue and $0.13 EPS, but year-over-year growth remained flat. Despite efforts to streamline operations under new CEO Lip-Bu Tan, weak second-quarter guidance and concerns over workforce cuts led to a 5% drop in after-hours trading.
Meta Platforms, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>)
Meta&#8217;s stock increased by 2.48%, closing at $533.15, with an intraday peak of $533.90 and a low of $517.50. The company&#8217;s 52-week range is $414.50 to $740.89. The European Union&#8217;s enforcement of the Digital Markets Act resulted in a significant fine for Meta, sparking <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44972575/trumps-team-blasts-eus-nearly-800-million-fine-on-apple-and-meta-as-extortion-could-us-retaliate-against-the-digital-markets-act">political backlash</a> in Washington.
Amazon.com, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>)
Amazon shares rose 3.29%, closing at $186.54, with a high of $186.74 and a low of $180.18. The stock&#8217;s 52-week high and low are $242.52 and $151.61. The company&#8217;s Project Kuiper, aimed at launching low Earth orbit satellites, is facing&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/space/25/04/44977151/jeff-bezos-space-internet-ambitions-falter-as-amazons-project-kuiper-struggles-to-increase-satellite-production-amid-launch-delays">production challenges</a>&nbsp;amid launch delays, impacting its market performance.
Tesla, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>)
Tesla&#8217;s stock advanced 3.50%, finishing at $259.51, with an intraday high of $259.54 and a low of $249.20. The 52-week range for Tesla is $157.40 to $488.54. Stifel <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44989615/tesla-to-450-here-are-10-top-analyst-forecasts-for-thursday-2">cut Tesla's price target</a> slightly from $455 to $450 but maintained a Buy rating, signaling continued confidence in the stock despite a modest downward revision.

Alphabet, Intel, Meta, Amazon, And Tesla: Why These 5 Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

As tensions between the U.S. and China over trade <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44861156/america-first-is-ok-but-not-america-alone-says-jamie-dimon-as-he-calls-for-us-china-engagement-amid-trade-tensions-start-with-a-phone-call">reached a boiling point today</a>, a statement of the legendary investor Charlie Munger has resurfaced on the topic of tariffs.
What Happened: In a joint interview with CNBC alongside Warren Buffett and Bill Gates in 2019, Munger addressed the growing trade dispute between the world's two largest economies.
At the time, markets were rattled by a tweet from then-President Donald Trump threatening to hike tariffs on Chinese goods to 25%.
When asked about the implications of such tariffs, Munger didn't mince words.

"I don't think we want a full-scale tariff war as high as both sides can make it," Munger said. "That would be massively stupid."
He acknowledged that negotiations would likely leave both countries feeling bruised, but insisted that discomfort was part of the process.
"If both of them are a little disappointed with the negotiations and feel roughed up, that's the way they should feel," Munger said. "Since a settlement is so much better than a trade war for both sides, they ought to just get used to having a little loss of face and make some kind of a settlement. And I think they will."
As global leaders grapple with renewed trade tensions, Munger's words serve as a reminder: "A good settlement is better than a lovely world war."

Why It's Important: Earlier this month, Trump, who is in his second term as President, imposed a 145% tariff on Chinese imports, prompting China to retaliate with a 125% tariff on U.S. products.
On Tuesday, he announced a <a href="http://benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44942449/trump-pledges-substantial-cut-in-china-tariffs-but-refuses-to-make-it-zero-if-they-dont-make-a-deal-we-will-set-the-deal">substantial cut to the steep tariffs</a> on Chinese goods, though they won't be fully eliminated. &#8220;It won't be that high, not going to be that high,&#8221; the President said, adding that, but it &#8220;won&#8217;t be zero&#8221; either.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent reportedly described the current tariff levels as &#8220;unsustainable&#8221; and expressed optimism about a potential &#8220;de-escalation&#8221; in trade tensions between the U.S. and China.
Following this on Thursday, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44973283/china-denies-trumps-trade-talk-assertion-calls-for-abolition-of-unilateral-tariffs-no-factual-basis">denied the existence</a> of any ongoing bilateral trade negotiations with the U.S., stating that the reports of progress in such talks are without factual basis.

Charlie Munger Once Observed That A Full-Scale US-China Tariff War Was 'Massively Stupid': The Legendary Investor Didn't Mind If Both Beijing And Washington Got Bruised Up In Talks Though — Here's Why

Japan&#8217;s government has announced a series of emergency economic measures to counteract the adverse effects of increased tariffs imposed by the United States. The move, announced on Thursday, comes as Japan prepares for further trade discussions with the U.S. next week.
What Happened: Japan&#8217;s government, led by Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba, introduced a set of emergency economic measures to mitigate the negative effects of increased tariffs imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump, <a href="https://english.kyodonews.net/news/2025/04/14b8a2a4c18a-update1-japan-unveils-emergency-economic-steps-to-curb-impact-of-us-tariffs.html">according</a> to Kyodo News. 
The measures aim to support corporate financing and stimulate consumption as Japan prepares for a second round of trade talks with the U.S. next week.
The relief package includes five key components, such as reducing gasoline and diesel prices by 10 yen per liter and offering subsidies for energy bills. Additionally, the government plans to expand low-interest loans for smaller companies starting next month. Economic Revitalization Minister Ryosei Akazawa is expected to visit the U.S. from Wednesday for discussions with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, potentially seeking exemptions or revisions to the tariffs.
Japan&#8217;s efforts come as Trump has increased import duties on cars, steel, and aluminum, posing a significant threat to global trade stability. Depending on the outcome of the upcoming negotiations, Ishiba&#8217;s administration may implement further measures to protect Japanese manufacturers and maintain consumer confidence.
At the time of writing, Japan&#8217;s Nikkei 225 index was seen trading 1.2% higher at 35,454.06.

Why It Matters: The tariffs imposed by the U.S. have placed Japan in a challenging position, especially given the significant impact on its automotive industry. Analysts have warned that the 25% tariff on automobiles could <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44522387/japanese-automakers-face-29-billion-tariff-hit-nissan-mazda-subaru-most-at-risk-says-analyst">lead to price increases</a> ranging from $5,000 to $15,000 for imported vehicles, affecting sales and profitability for companies like Nissan, Mazda, and Subaru.
In recent discussions, Trump expressed optimism about the progress in negotiations with Japan, highlighting the importance of these talks in addressing the $63 billion trade surplus. However, Ishiba has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44857178/trump-joins-japan-tariff-talks-calls-progress-big-as-63-billion-trade-surplus-looms">cautioned that the negotiations will be challenging</a>.
Furthermore, tensions have been exacerbated by Trump&#8217;s claims of non-tariff barriers, such as the alleged Japanese vehicle safety tests, which Japan&#8217;s transport ministry <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44913967/trumps-bowling-ball-tale-bounces-back-japan-refutes-presidents-car-safety-test-claims">has refuted</a>.

Japan's Counterpunch To Trump Tariffs: Emergency Measures Deployed As US Trade Talks Loom

Kevin O'Leary thinks the biggest reason people wait to have kids is simple—money.
&#8220;The reason people don&#8217;t have kids earlier is they&#8217;re expensive,&#8221; the investor and TV personality said during a recent Fox News <a href="https://x.com/kevinolearytv/status/1914441467189219356">interview</a> he shared on X. He tied the trend of delayed parenthood to rising living costs and the sky-high price of education. &#8220;So we&#8217;ve got a few things to fix ourselves,&#8221; he added.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Waiting Longer to Start Families</h2>
O'Leary reflected on his own life and said he wishes he had his children sooner. &#8220;What you learn in life is, when you get older, you realize you wish you had your kids earlier,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Family is the best thing you can get in America. If I could go back in time, I would have had them a decade earlier.&#8221;

During the interview, he was asked about policies like baby bonuses and fertility incentives, which the Trump administration has floated as ways to boost the U.S. birth rate. O'Leary didn't offer strong support or opposition but brought up a familiar name: Elon Musk.
&#8220;I think Elon&#8217;s doing a great job making up for the rest of us,&#8221; he joked. &#8220;I think he&#8217;s on kid 14 now. Good for him.&#8221;
Trending: BlackRock is calling 2025 the year of alternative assets. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">One firm from NYC has quietly built a group of 60,000+ investors who have all joined in on an alt asset class previously exclusive to billionaires like Bezos and Gates.</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Real Costs of Raising Kids</h2>
O'Leary's comments reflect a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/42805973/300000-and-counting-the-cost-of-a-decision-many-parents-regret">real financial hurdle</a> for many Americans. According to <a href="https://www.brookings.edu/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/Brookings_Cost-to-raise-a-child_inflation-adjusted-2.pdf">data</a> from the Brookings Institution, it now costs an average of $310,605 to raise a child from birth to age 17 for a middle-income family with two kids.
That's a big jump from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's 2015 <a href="https://www.fns.usda.gov/cnpp/2015-expenditures-children-families">estimate</a> of $233,610. The difference is largely due to increases in housing, childcare, food, and education.
According to <a href="https://www.investopedia.com/articles/personal-finance/090415/cost-raising-child-america.asp">Investopedia</a>, housing alone can eat up 32% of a household's income, based on consumer expenditures data. Food can take up 15% to 24%, depending on diet and family size. And childcare? That ranges from 7% to 23%, depending on where you live and what type of care you need.
And this doesn't even include the cost of college. A year at a public university now averages $24,920, while private colleges can run over $58,000 per year.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Looking for Relief</h2>
Families can look for tax credits like the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44124166/affordable-childcare-act-could-give-parents-up-to-12k-but-can-it-pass-a-divided-congress">child tax credit</a> or explore <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-529-plans">529 college savings plans</a> to make things more manageable. But even with those tools, the numbers add up quickly.
That's why O'Leary's message resonates: it's not about people not wanting kids, it's about whether they can afford them.
&#8220;We're in a very interesting situation now because people are waiting longer,&#8221; he said. And as many parents later realize, time is the one thing money can't buy.

'Reason People Don't Have Kids Earlier Is They're Expensive,' Says Kevin O'Leary. However, 'Time Is The One Thing Money Can't Buy'

Having kids used to be something people did in their 20s. Now, it's starting to look more like a midlife milestone.
For the first time ever, more Americans over 40 are giving birth than teenagers. The average age for first-time mothers has hit a record high of 27.5, <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvsr/nvsr72/nvsr72-01.pdf#3">according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention</a>, and experts say cost is a big reason people are putting off parenthood. But <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44887160/kevin-oleary-says-500000-is-the-magic-number-to-live-comfortably-you-can-live-off-half-a-million-bucks-and-do-nothing-else-to-make-money">Kevin O'Leary</a> thinks that delay may come with regret — and says Elon Musk is doing what most Americans aren't.

O'Leary <a href="https://x.com/kevinolearytv/status/1914441467189219356">posted</a> a message on X that was part reflection, part economic reality check. "The reason people don't have kids earlier is they're expensive," he wrote. "This is kind of an issue around the cost of living and the price of education. So we've got a few things to fix."
Attached to the post was a clip from a recent Fox News segment. In it, O'Leary was asked about President Donald Trump's pitch for baby bonuses and a New York Times headline that said the idea was to "persuade women to have kids." His response? "It's interesting," he said. "I think Elon is doing a great job making up for the rest of us. I think he's on kid 14 now."
He doubled down in the clip: "At the end of the day, the reason people don't have kids here — they're expensive." O'Leary pointed to the cost of education, housing, and childcare, calling it a system that's not optimized for young families.
Trending: It&#8217;s no wonder Jeff Bezos holds over $250 million in art — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">this alternative asset has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 since 1995, delivering an average annual return of 11.4%. Here&#8217;s how everyday investors are getting started.</a>
He also tied the issue to broader global concerns, noting that even countries like China have struggled with population planning. "Even the Chinese for a while started to think, ‘Wait a second, how do we feed all these people?' And it goes back to the tariff wars."
But the most personal part came when O'Leary turned inward. "We are in a very interesting situation now because people are waiting longer," he said. "And what you learn in life, which is kind of crazy, is when you get older, you realize you wish you had your kids earlier."
"Family is the best thing you can get in America," he said. "If I could go back in time, I would have had them a decade earlier."

If They Could Show A Plan For Ending World Hunger He'd Donate $6 Billion – ‘I Will Sell Tesla Stock Right Now And Do It'</a>
The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/11/42190349/the-u-s-birthrate-has-plunged-53-since-1960-an-hsbc-economist-is-sounding-the-alarm">stats echo the trend</a>: births to teens in the U.S. have dropped 78% since 1991, while births to people over 40 have steadily climbed, <a href="https://www.pewresearch.org/social-trends/2018/01/18/theyre-waiting-longer-but-u-s-women-today-more-likely-to-have-children-than-a-decade-ago/">according to Pew Research</a>. Fertility treatments and financial planning may play a role, but many simply feel they can't afford kids in their 20s.
Still, O'Leary's message cuts through the economic fog: if you wait until everything is "affordable," you might be waiting forever. And while Musk's massive family may not be for everyone, O'Leary's point is clear — delayed parenthood may make financial sense, but it comes at a personal cost.

Tariff policies and plans by the Trump administration are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs">not being well received</a> by many consumers in the U.S. and people around the world.
A British billionaire is the latest to speak out on the negative impact the tariffs could have on global economics.
What Happened: Billionaire Richard Branson, best known for the Virgin Group and subsidies, is not being quiet when it comes to speaking out about President Donald <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/04/44961882/iphone-resecue-apple-tariff-worries">Trump's tariff plans.</a>
"He's in danger of doing so much damage in the world. It's just sad, incredibly sad," Branson said earlier this week while boarding a Virgin Atlantic flight, as reported by The Times.
Branson said Trump is "in danger of doing so much damage" to the world with his tariff policies.
"The world was on the verge of a complete meltdown two weeks ago."
The billionaire said Trump's tariff decisions "have financially done a lot of harm."
With Trump backtracking on some tariff plans, Branson said the president's policymaking is showing signs of being "erratic."
"The unpredictability is just awful for everybody around the world."
Branson said people are delaying decisions on investment and spending with the unpredictability caused by Trump worldwide.
The billionaire said companies will "manage as we always do" to fight on in the tariff era. Branson said his cruise ships and airlines were booming before the trade war caused "a bit of softness in the U.S."
Branson said the softness for Virgin Atlantic for flights from the U.S. to Europe has partially been offset by Virgin's new route from Toronto to London and Canadians upset by Trump's tariffs and his "51st state" label placed on Canada.
"Canadians are flooding the U.K. and are not going to America."

More Criticism: Along with criticizing Trump's tariff policies, Branson also took exception to the U.S., led by Trump, deciding to "jump side" on Ukraine in their fight with Russia.
Branson said this put the U.S. on the wrong side of history and "should worry the world the most."
The billionaire said it could be a "fairly small elite of people" around the president causing the U-turn on Ukraine.
"I don't think he's carrying the vast majority of Americans in what he's doing. Most American people are decent individuals. Many Americans I know are just very sad."
Branson asked if Trump will "abide by the treaty America signed in 1994" and support Ukraine. The billionaire said if America won't support Ukraine, Europe needs to step up.
"We've got to ramp up weapons supplies, like we haven't done since the Second World War."

<h2>About DraftKings</h2>
DraftKings got its start in 2012 as an innovator in daily fantasy sports. Then, following a Supreme Court ruling in 2018 that allowed states to legalize online sports wagering, the company expanded into online sports and casino gambling, where it generally holds the number two or three revenue share position across states in which it competes. DraftKings is now live with online or retail sports betting in about 25 states and iGaming in five states, with both products available to around 40% of Canada's population. In 2024, sports revenue was 61% of total sales, i-gaming 32%, and fantasy and lottery 7%. The company also operates a non-fungible token commissioned-based marketplace and develops and licenses online gaming products.

<h2>Analyst Ratings: What Are They?</h2>
