Keefe, Bruyette & Woods Upgrades Houlihan Lokey to Outperform, Raises Price Target to $232

U.S. stock futures were lower on Monday after ending on a negative note on Friday. Futures of major benchmark indices were lower.
President Donald Trump, in a telephone interview with NBC News' &#8220;Meet the Press&#8221; moderator Kristen Welker, asserted that &#8220;The tariffs have been very well received.&#8221; He believes that if a 10% tariff can generate around $300 billion annually, a 20% rate could <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46386524/trump-wants-blanket-tariffs-of-up-to-20-after-surprise-treasury-surplus-in-june-ed-yardeni-says-don">double that intake</a>. 
Meanwhile, the European Union was ready with a prepared list of tariffs worth 21 billion euros ($24.52 billion) on U.S. goods if the two sides fail to reach a trade deal, reported Reuters, highlighting Italy&#8217;s Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani&#8216;s comments. 
He also issued, latest threats to impose a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/macro-economic-events/25/07/46384885/peter-schiff-gives-trumps-30-tariff-threa">30% tariff on all imports</a> from Mexico and the EU. 
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) scaled fresh highs on Monday as the cryptocurrency hit a fresh high of $123,091.61 per coin.
The 10-year Treasury bond yielded 4.42% and the two-year bond was at 3.89%. The CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool&#8217;s</a> projections show markets pricing a 93.3% likelihood of the Federal Reserve keeping the current interest rates unchanged in its July meeting.

The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) and Invesco QQQ Trust ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), which track the S&amp;P 500 index and Nasdaq 100 index, respectively, were lower in premarket on Monday. The SPY was down 0.27% at $621.94, while the QQQ declined 0.27% to $552.73, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a> data.
Cues From Last Session:
On Friday, while most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed lower, notably financial, health care, and materials stocks recorded the steepest declines, energy and consumer discretionary stocks defied the broader market downturn, concluding the session higher.
This mixed performance occurred a day after the S&amp;P 500 reached a new record high, ultimately leading U.S. stocks to settle lower.
The broader market reflected these losses over the past week, with the Dow Jones dropping 1% and the S&amp;P by 0.3%.
Fueling market jitters, Trump signaled a more aggressive trade stance, announcing a 35% tariff on Canadian imports effective Aug. 1, alongside proposed blanket duties of 15% to 20% on most other trading partners.
In corporate news, WD-40 Co. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WDFC#NASDAQ">WDFC</a>) reported better-than-expected earnings for its third quarter, though its sales figures fell short of estimates.

Insights From Analysts:
Jim Cramer in an X post reflected his concern over tariffs linked to Trump&#8217;s policies.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Back to the old pattern of woe off of Trump.. The whole tariff thing will be &quot;fine&quot; until it implodes of there is endless re-trading &#8230;
&mdash; Jim Cramer (@jimcramer) <a href="https://twitter.com/jimcramer/status/1944575812734157284?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 14, 2025</a></blockquote>

Meanwhile, Ed Yardeni from Yardeni Research highlighted the surplus of just over <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46386524/trump-wants-blanket-tariffs-of-up-to-20-after-surprise-treasury-surplus-in-june-ed-yardeni-says-don">$27 billion in June</a>, reported by the U.S. Treasury Department, saying that Trump "must have loved the headline… ‘Treasury posts unexpected surplus in June as tariff receipts surge."
However, he warned that tariffs are essentially "a tax on U.S. importers," which can erode corporate profit margins and profits. While rebounding productivity growth might offer some offset, the potential impact on businesses remains a significant concern.
Adding about the market reaction to tariffs, Yardeni said, &#8220;The selloffs in the bond and stock markets back then forced Trump to deescalate his trade war. That's not happening now—not so far at least. This undoubtedly is emboldening Trump.&#8221;
Speculating on how the financial markets will respond this week to his latest escalation, Yardeni said that perhaps investors have learned that Trump's huffing and puffing is simply the way he negotiates trade deals.
&#8220;They are betting that it will work and result in lots of deals. They've also learned that Trump can change his mind often. So if some trade deals aren't coming together fast enough, he'll settle on a vague letter of understanding to work out a deal over time.&#8221;
The risk for the economy and investors is that Trump has concluded that if the financial markets aren't going to be vigilant about his trade war, then he can proceed with it unchecked, explained Yardeni. &#8220;If so, then TTT (Trump&#8217;s Tariff Turmoil) will last past the summer.&#8221;
Yardeni said in a LinkedIn <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/trumps-reign-tariffs-aint-over-edward-yardeni-eshve/">post</a>, &#8220;Then again, investors may agree with our current view that &#8216;this too shall pass&#8217; by the end of the summer: The economy will remain resilient, and inflation will remain surprisingly moderate. It all adds up to a relatively normal seasonal pattern, with the stock market weak during the late summer through the fall followed by a year-end rally to 6500 in our scenario.&#8221;

Why Datavault AI Shares Are Trading Higher By 7%; Here Are 20 Stocks Moving Premarket

Entrepreneur and investor Anthony Pompliano hailed Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) as the ultimate solution to the global issue of currency debasement and the &#8220;most important technology invention&#8221; of the current era on Sunday.
What Happened:&nbsp;In an X post, Pompliano&nbsp;emphasized the potential of Bitcoin to counteract the economic damage caused by currency debasement.
&#8220;Gold served that purpose for thousands of years, but it is impractical for people to access, store, and use a physical product in today&#8217;s digital age,&#8221; he argued.

Pompliano identified Bitcoin as &#8220;humanity&#8217;s best bet&#8221; for protecting people against central bank and government overreach, a theme that BTC maximalists routinely espouse.
&#8220;It may still be controversial today, but I truly believe Bitcoin will go down as the most important technology invention of our lifetime,&#8221; he predicted. 
Pompliano also remembered Satoshi Nakamoto, stating that &#8220;we owe so much&#8221; to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/satoshi-nakamoto">Bitcoin&#8217;s pseudonymous creator</a>.

Why It Matters:&nbsp;Pompliano&#8217;s comments come at a time when <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/07/46385840/michael-saylors-strategy-coinbase-mara-riot-and-other-crypto-related-stocks-spike-after-hours-as-bitcoin-touches-all-time-high-beyond-122000">Bitcoin is making historic strides</a>. The apex cryptocurrency soared above $123,000, extending a record-breaking rally that defied gravity.
Pompliano, one of the most ardent Bitcoin advocates, projected earlier this month that the leading cryptocurrency would <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/07/46188791/anthony-pompliano-says-bitcoin-to-reach-a-gazillion-driven-by-massive-money-printing-in-a-heated-economy">soar to a &#8220;gazillion,&#8221;</a> driven by massive money printing in a heated economy.
Last week, he deemed Bitcoin as the &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/25/07/46335745/bitcoin-hits-historic-high-above-112000-noted-investor-says-if-you-cant-beat-it-you-have-to-buy-it">new hurdle rate,&#8221;</a> suggesting that it has crossed the benchmark required to be considered a viable investment.
Price Action:&nbsp; At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $122,367.95, up 3.66% in the last 24 hours, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA.." target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.&nbsp;

Bitcoin Is Humanity's 'Best Bet' Against Currency Debasement, Says Anthony Pompliano: 'We Owe So Much To Satoshi Nakamoto'

Alibaba Group Holding (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/alibaba" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">matched its record</a> of 80 million on-demand deliveries on Saturday, intensifying its competition with Meituan (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MPNGF#OTC">MPNGF</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MPNGY#OTC">MPNGY</a>) and JD.com (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JD#NASDAQ">JD</a>) in China&#8217;s high-stakes quick-delivery market. 
The e-commerce firm has leaned heavily on giveaways and aggressive discounts to attract users, SCMP <a href="https://www.scmp.com/tech/big-tech/article/3318125/alibaba-delivers-80-million-orders-1-day-amid-fierce-price-war-meituan-jdcom" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported</a> on Monday. 
Taobao Shangou, Alibaba&#8217;s newly launched instant commerce brand, stated that its daily active users rose 15% week-over-week, bringing the estimated total to around 230 million. The brand also confirmed achieving 80 million deliveries on July 5.

On Saturday, platforms including Meituan, Taobao, Ele.me, and JD.com launched a wave of cash subsidies and promotions in a sweeping nationwide campaign to reshape shopping behavior. 
By offering free items like milk tea, many physical stores had to halt walk-in services due to the flood of online orders, signaling a shift in retail dynamics.
Meituan distributed coupons allowing users to get milk tea for 0 Chinese yuan, while Taobao provided 188 yuan ($26) coupons redeemable for discounted goods like milk tea and breakfast. It also released flash coupons, including one for 18.80 yuan off purchases above 18.80 yuan.
JD.com announced on Friday that it would sell 100,000 servings of crayfish nightly at a fixed price of 16.18 yuan from 6 p.m. to 2 a.m. As a result, its instant retail platform hit a new peak with 150 million orders on Saturday.
Alibaba is ramping up its <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/07/46292413/alibabas-delivery-ambition-sets-stage-for-chinas-epic-clash-of-giants" rel="noreferrer noopener">on-demand delivery</a> efforts with a 50 billion yuan ($7 billion) subsidy program aimed at consumers and merchants over the next year. In June, the company merged Ele.me and Fliggy into its core e-commerce unit to boost efficiency and better compete with Meituan and JD.com.
According to Jefferies, Alibaba now focuses on unifying food delivery, instant commerce, and retail to unlock cross-platform synergies. The company credited Taobao Instant Commerce for helping double China&#8217;s daily instant delivery orders from 100 million in May to 200 million.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Price War Takes Toll</h2>
Meanwhile, China&#8217;s intensifying food delivery price war has wiped $100 billion from Alibaba&#8217;s market value, dragging its Hong Kong-listed shares down 27% since March, almost double the decline seen in its tech peers, Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-07-11/alibaba-risks-deepening-100-billion-rout-as-turf-war-heats-up?sref=TBDibEcD" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported</a> on Friday.
Goldman Sachs told Bloomberg Alibaba could post a 41 billion yuan ($5.7 billion) loss in its food delivery operations for the 12 months ending June 2026, roughly one-third of its net income for the previous fiscal year. 
Analysts from HSBC, including Charlene Liu, cut their price target for Alibaba by 15% this week, citing aggressive spending in food delivery and instant commerce as a significant drag on earnings.
Julia Pan of UOB Kay Hian Holdings told Bloomberg that regulatory intervention to curb price wars could improve margin outlook, while current valuation levels may trigger dip buying.
Still, caution remains. Nicholas Chui, portfolio manager at Franklin Templeton, warned Bloomberg that price wars sacrificing profitability for market share could make certain stocks unattractive.
The competition escalated after JD.com entered the food delivery market in February, targeting Meituan&#8217;s dominance with aggressive subsidies, as per the Monday SCMP report. According to Bocom International, Meituan held 65% of the market in 2024, while Ele.me controlled 33%, leaving just 2% for all other platforms combined.
Price Action:&nbsp;BABA shares are trading higher by&nbsp;1.47% to&nbsp;$108.29 premarket at&nbsp;last check on Monday.

Ascentage Pharma Group International Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPG#NASDAQ">AAPG</a>, HKEX: 6855))) ("Ascentage" or the "Company"), a global biopharmaceutical company dedicated to addressing unmet medical needs in cancers, announced that Dajun Yang Dynasty Trust, an affiliate of the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Dajun Yang, M.D., Ph.D. (the "Vendor"), proposes to offer ordinary shares, par value US$0.0001 per share, of the Company (the "Placement Shares") in an offshore transaction outside the United States to non-U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), subject to market conditions and other factors (the "Offshore Placement"). At the time of the closing of the Offshore Placement, the Vendor would subscribe for, and the Company would issue to the Vendor new ordinary shares of the Company (the "Replacement Shares") at the same number as the number of the Placement Shares offered in the Offshore Placement and at the same price per share as the price per share for the Placement Shares.

Ascentage Pharma to Use Offshore Offering Proceeds to Boost Global Trials and Expand Patient Access

A Reddit user claims to have turned disaster into triumph after nearly blowing his mother&#8217;s $800,000 retirement account, before mounting a stellar recovery to a profit of $4 million in just 3 months, via aggressive options trading.
Check out the current price of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/UNH" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">UNH stock here.</a>
What Happened: On Reddit&#8217;s /r/WallStreetBets community on Saturday, a user with the name Solid-Sock-1794 described his 18-month-long trading journey using his mother&#8217;s retirement, which he says, &#8220;she was more than ok with.&#8221;
During this period, he claims to have significantly outperformed the markets by trading options contracts on high-volatility stocks such as Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>), Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), and Hims &amp; Hers Health Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HIMS#NYSE">HIMS</a>). His strategy involved buying near or at-the-money call options with expirations two to five months down the line.
He says the expirations would ideally involve one earnings event in the window, while holding through the actual earnings days.

This strategy, however, failed to stand the test of volatility in April, during what he refers to as &#8220;Tariff BS,&#8221; following which the account plummeted to $800,000. Since then, the account has made a strong 575% recovery, with an ending balance of $5.4 million.
The user credits this recovery to opportunistic scalps during sharp pullbacks, citing the example of Alphabet&#8217;s shares, following Apple Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) Congressional Testimony that suggested <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45536887/this-is-the-first-time-in-two-decades-that-google-is-extremely-vulnerableperplexitys-ceo-breaks-down-search-giants-margin-trap">a decline in Google search</a> traffic on Safari for the very first time in history.
As of Friday, the user disclosed he's 85% in cash, with the remaining 15% allocated to QQQ or Nasdaq puts and UnitedHealth Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNH#NYSE">UNH</a>) calls. 
Citing ongoing trade uncertainty involving the European Union and Canada, he summed up his outlook and strategy going forward with a signature WSB refrain: &#8220;TACO's gonna TACO.&#8221; 
Here, the user is referring to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45665026/trump-always-chickens-out-president-confronted-with-taco-trade-thesis-by-reporteras-markets-bet-hell-blink-again">&#8220;Trump Always Chickens Out&#8221; trade</a>, where traders make bets as soon as President Donald Trump issues fresh tariff threats, knowing fully well that he won&#8217;t follow through with them, something that&#8217;s repeated several times in recent months.

Why It Matters: Late last month, as the deadline for the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/broad-u-s-equity-etfs/25/06/46180782/trumps-tariff-clock-ticks-but-taco-traders-arent-losing-their-cool">90-day pause approached</a>, traders did not lose their cool, deciding to lean instead into the &#8220;TACO&#8221; pattern, betting that Trump would soften his stance before inflicting lasting market damage.
Last week, as Trump began issuing more tariff threats and letters to key trading partners, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/07/46325008/copper-hits-a-record-on-trumps-threat-more-investors-join-taco-trade-fed-minutes-ahead">investors continued to buy</a>, once again putting their faith in the fact that, once all is said and done, the tariffs will not be as harsh as they are set out to be.

User Sensitive_Reveal_227 claimed to have acquired 303 shares in the health insurance provider after selling his house, and without informing his wife, in hopes of a recovery in the beaten-down stock, following the assassination of its former CEO, the abrupt exit of its new CEO, and speculations of a DOJ criminal investigation, which the company quickly denied.
The company&#8217;s shares have remained largely flat since then, with no recovery in sight, and still trading at over 50% below its all-time high in November 2024.
Price Action: Shares of UnitedHealth were up 1.53% on Friday, trading at $304.10, and are down 0.35% in after-hours trading.

What Happened: Responding to a post on X, formerly Twitter, Musk said, "It's not up to me. If it was up to me, Tesla would have invested in xAI long ago. We will have a shareholder vote on the matter."

"xAI can help power that future either as a partner or part of Tesla. The faster they can get cash, the higher the odds of success for both companies."

Why It's Important: xAI was founded in 2023. In March, it was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/03/44549314/elon-musk-acquires-his-own-social-media-platform-x-through-xai-in-33-billion-deal-says-combined-entity-now-worth-80-billion">acquired Musk's social</a> media platform X.
In late June, Morgan Stanley revealed that xAI secured a $5 billion debt financing round along with an additional $5 billion strategic equity investment. This effort is part of the startup's plan to strengthen its AI infrastructure with new data centers as competition intensifies.
Last week, after xAI announced the launch of Grok 4, Musk also confirmed in a reply to Tesla influencer Sawyer Merritt that Grok will be <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/07/46347324/musk-says-grok-coming-to-teslas-by-next-week-evs-getting-the-smartest-ai-in-the-world">available in Tesla vehicles</a> very soon, likely by this week.
Benzinga&#8217;s Edge Stock Rankings indicate that TSLA is trending downward in the short term but continues to show positive momentum over the medium and long term. The stock has a solid growth score, although its value rating is relatively lower. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/premium/ideas/benzinga-edge-4/#:~:text=Turn%20Market%20Chaos,when%20markets%20rebound">You can find more detailed performance insights here</a>.

Elon Musk Wants Tesla To Invest In xAI, But It's Up To Shareholders: This Analyst Says Grok Is Worth The Bet

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) will introduce Elon Musk-led artificial intelligence company xAI's Artificial Intelligence model Grok to select models of the Tesla line-up in the U.S.
Check out the current price of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/TSLA">TSLA stock here.</a>
What Happened: The EV giant will roll out Grok on select Tesla vehicles. Influencer Sawyer Merritt took to social media platform X on Sunday to outline the criteria for running Grok.
"For now, it&#8217;ll only be available to Teslas in the U.S. and with cars that have an AMD Ryzen chip," the influencer said in his post. He also outlined that users can check the settings menu on their Tesla to see what chip their cars are running.
"Teslas with Intel chips won&#8217;t be able to use Grok," Merritt added in the post. Grok will also be available in multiple voices, but it won't be able to issue commands to the vehicle, Merritt said.

Why It Matters: The news comes in as there has been considerable buzz around Musk exploring options to merge xAI with Tesla and SpaceX. Investor Chamath Palihapitiya thinks such a merger <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/large-cap/25/07/46385300/tesla-xai-and-spacex-merger-chamath-palihapitiya-floats-industrial-logic-for-union-of-elon-musk-led-companies-this-would-be-pretty-logical">would be "logical."</a>

Will Your Tesla Car Support Grok? Only These Vehicles Will Be Able To Run Elon Musk-Led xAI's Latest AI Model

Personal finance author and radio host Dave Ramsey has highlighted the long-term consequences of filing for bankruptcy, particularly with obtaining a mortgage and purchasing a home.
What Happened: Ramsey pointed out the detrimental effects of bankruptcy on an individual&#8217;s financial standing, particularly regarding mortgage eligibility and homeownership, <a href="https://www.thestreet.com/real-estate/dave-ramsey-shares-harsh-truth-about-bankruptcy-mortgages-and-buying-a-home">reported</a> The Street.
He explained that filing for bankruptcy can severely damage a person&#8217;s credit score, which makes it harder to qualify for a mortgage or get a favorable interest rate, potentially pushing homeownership out of reach for several years.
According to Ramsey, bankruptcy can result in a significant reduction in credit scores, making it challenging for potential homebuyers to secure a mortgage loan or obtain a favorable interest rate. He cautioned that it could take several years for individuals who have filed for bankruptcy to recover financially and qualify for a mortgage.

&#8220;A bankruptcy is a huge red flag for mortgage lenders. While it&#8217;s not impossible to buy a home after going through bankruptcy, it could take one to four years before anyone will even think about letting you take out a mortgage,&#8221; Ramsey said.
Why It Matters: The rising cost of living and stagnant wages have made it increasingly difficult for Americans to manage their financial obligations. This has led to a surge in household debt levels, particularly among younger generations who are juggling student loans, retirement savings, and the challenges of buying a home in a tough housing market, as per the report.
Ramsey has previously <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/06/39169280/dave-ramsey-says-smart-people-dont-take-out-30-year-mortgages-if-you-cant-afford-a-home-on-a-15-">advocated for 15-year fixed-rate mortgages</a>, stating that &#8220;smart people&#8221; should not take out 30-year mortgages if they cannot afford a home on a 15-year mortgage.
Ramsey's financial wisdom comes from personal experience. At 26, he appeared successful with a booming real estate business and a lavish lifestyle, but it was all built on debt. When banks called in his loans, he was overwhelmed and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/01/43171388/dave-ramsey-was-in-debt-up-to-his-eyeballs-sheriff-wanted-to-take-his-kids-crib-now-he-owns-600-million-in-real-estate-paid-for-in-cash">declared bankruptcy in 1988</a>, just as the sheriff was set to seize his assets.
Humbled and broken, Ramsey hit rock bottom and was forced to rebuild his life. That turning point sparked a spiritual and personal transformation, leading him to confront his past mistakes and start over with a new perspective.

Dave Ramsey Warns Bankruptcy Is 'Huge Red Flag' That Can Delay Homeownership By Years

President Donald Trump has proposed a blanket tariff rate of 15%-20% on most nations, a notable jump from the current 10% base amid an unexpected federal budget surplus in June, largely attributed to a surge in tariff receipts.
What Happened: The U.S. Treasury Department reported <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/07/11/treasury-posts-unexpected-surplus-in-june-as-tariff-receipts-surge.html">a</a> surplus of just over $27 billion in June, a stark contrast to May&#8217;s $316 billion deficit. Customs duties played a key role, totaling approximately $27 billion for the month, a staggering 301% increase from June 2024 figures. 
As Ed Yardeni of Yardeni Research highlighted, Trump &#8220;must have loved the headline… &#8216;Treasury posts unexpected surplus in June as tariff receipts surge.&#8221;
Trump, in a telephone interview <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-tariffs-inflation-hasbro-ukraine-patriot-missiles-nato-russia-rcna218125">with</a> NBC News' &#8220;Meet the Press&#8221; moderator Kristen Welker, asserted that &#8220;The tariffs have been very well received.&#8221; He believes that if a 10% tariff can generate around $300 billion annually, a 20% rate could double that intake. 
However, experts caution against this aggressive approach. Yardeni noted that tariffs are essentially &#8220;a tax on U.S. importers,&#8221; which can erode corporate profit margins and profits. While rebounding productivity growth might offer some offset, the potential impact on businesses remains a significant concern.
Yardeni&#8217;s &#8220;humble advice to POTUS&#8221; serves as a stark warning: &#8220;Beware of hubris. Don't push your luck on tariffs. Also, don't mess with the Fed's independence. The Bond Vigilantes will push up bond yields.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The Federal Reserve, under Chair Jerome Powell, remains wary of tariffs&#8217; inflationary potential, further complicating Trump&#8217;s calls for interest rate cuts to ease the burden of servicing the national debt, which saw net interest payments of $84 billion in June.
As the minutes of the Fed's June meeting were released on Wednesday last week, the word <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46336115/as-trump-calls-for-3-percentage-point-rate-cut-too-late-jerome-powell-to-resign-june-fed-minutes-sh">"uncertainty" reigned supreme</a>. 
The words "uncertain" and "uncertainty" appeared 28 times in the June 17-18 meeting minutes, and Fed Chair Jerome Powell mentioned the two words 19 times.
Price Action: Meanwhile, the markets tumbled on Friday after scaling fresh highs over the last week. The SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>) and Invesco QQQ Trust ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), which track the S&amp;P 500 index and Nasdaq 100 index, respectively, fell on Friday. The SPY was down 0.35% at $623.62, while the QQQ declined 0.23% to $554.20, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a> data.
On Monday, the futures of the S&amp;P 500, Dow Jones, and Nasdaq 100 indices were trading lower.
