Gold prices hit an all-time high Monday as President Donald Trump's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/02/43926015/trump-confirms-tariffs-on-canada-mexico-will-take-effect-as-planned">tariff threat</a> sent risk-on markets lower, driving demand for the safe haven asset.
What happened: Spot gold rose to $2,956 per ounce early morning before dipping to $2,937.67 as of this writing. Gold futures on the Commodity Exchange also climbed to an intraday high of 2,970.39 before settling at $2.952.
The yellow metal has gained 12.3% year-to-date and roughly 44% over the last 12 months.&nbsp;
Gold's rise contrasted with that of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), often dubbed the "digital gold" by its advocates, as the apex cryptocurrency slid 4.48% in the last 24 hours.

Meanwhile, Pax Gold (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/paxg/usd">PAXG</a>), a cryptocurrency backed by physical gold, was among the market&#8217;s biggest gainers in the last 24 hours.

Why It Matters: Peter Schiff, a renowned gold bug and Bitcoin critic, highlighted how SPDR Gold Trust ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>), the world's largest gold exchange-traded fund, has risen 12.42% year-to-date, while Bitcoin-tied ETFs have struggled.&nbsp;
"Instead of 2025 beginning a golden age for Bitcoin, it looks like it will just be a golden age," Schiff threw a jibe.

While Bitcoin has certainly struggled this year, it has surpassed gold in terms of annual returns, rising more than 76% vs. the bullion metal's 44% returns.

Bitcoin Is Struggling In 2025 As Gold Clocks New All-Time High But Here Is The Full Picture

Deepwater Management&#8216;s Gene Munster&nbsp;has shared his insights on Apple&#8217;s recent announcement of $500 billion U.S. investments.
What Happened: On Tuesday, Munster took to X to present his analysis of&nbsp;Apple Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>)&#8217;s decision to ramp up its annual U.S. expenditures. He believes the tech giant is set to increase its annual U.S. investments by $39 billion, a 45% increase from the 2021 run rate. However, Munster suggests the actual&nbsp;incremental investment is closer to&nbsp;$20 billion annually.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Three takeaways from $AAPL's announcement of investments in the US: 1- The quick math suggests Apple is increasing its annual US expenditures by $39B, up 45% from the run rate outlined in 2021. In reality, the incremental investment is closer to $20B annually. Prior to today's…
&mdash; Gene Munster (@munster_gene) <a href="https://twitter.com/munster_gene/status/1894086801452646772?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 24, 2025</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
He also indicated that Apple&#8217;s announcement underscores its realization that an AI-powered future necessitates significant infrastructure investments. He estimates that 15% of the $19 billion incremental spend will be allocated to the hiring of 20,000 new employees, adding roughly $3 billion in annual employee expenses. The remaining 85% is likely to be invested in infrastructure, including expanding data center capacity and chip production for Apple Watches and iPads.
Munster&#8217;s third point underscores Apple&#8217;s strategic approach to bypass tariffs by redirecting those savings into U.S. investments. He estimates that the U.S. accounts for about 35% of Apple&#8217;s total sales, translating to approximately $147 billion in revenue this year. Of that, around $120 billion comes from product sales, which could be affected by the 10% tariffs. Hence, by boosting its domestic investments, Apple could potentially save at least $11 billion per year by avoiding the tariff. Put simply, tariff avoidance covers half of the additional $19 billion in U.S. investment announced.

Why It Matters: Apple CEO Tim Cook&#8216;s announcement of this massive investment in the U.S. is being widely perceived as a means to avoid the tariff threat. Tariffs have been a cause of major cause of concern for Apple. Bank of America analyst Analyst Wamsi Mohan had previously stated that iPhone manufacturers will need to increase prices on iPhones, iPads, and other <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43839627/apple-may-hike-iphone-prices-by-9-due-to-trumps-tariffs-says-bank-of-america">products by about 9%</a> to offset the impact of tariffs.
Meanwhile, President <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43911774/trump-says-apples-500-billion-investment-is-due-to-his-policies-without-which-they-wouldnt-be-investing-ten-cents">Donald Trump stated</a> that the investment was a result of Apple&#8217;s confidence in his administration and policies. 
Apart from Gene Munster, several other analysts have presented their reactions to the iPhone maker&#8217;s $500 billion investment. UBS analyst David Vogt stated that  &#8220;it lacks substance&#8221;, while renowned short-seller James Chanos called it &#8220;unrealistic&#8221; considering Apple&#8217;s current capital base is less than $160 billion. On the other hand, Wedbush&#8217;s Dan Ives said, &#8220;Apple made the smart strategic move with this $500 billion bet on its US buildout.&#8221;
Apple stock closed 0.66% higher at $247.17 on Monday.

JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) CEO Jamie Dimon has voiced criticism over the efficiency of the U.S. government and shown support for the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) overseen by Elon Musk.
What Happened: In an interview with <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/24/jamie-dimon-us-government-inefficient-touts-elon-musk-doge-effort.html">CNBC</a>&#8216;s Leslie Picker on Monday, Dimon labeled the government as &#8220;inefficient&#8221; and &#8220;not very competent,&#8221; implying that it &#8220;needs a lot of work.&#8221; Although he didn&#8217;t provide a clear-cut response about his stance on DOGE&#8217;s initiatives, his remarks suggested a general endorsement.
Dimon also mentioned the Trump administration&#8217;s initiatives to cut spending and closely examine federal agencies, stating such actions &#8220;need to be done.&#8221; He underscored the need for building appropriate policies and procedures and questioned the benefits derived from government spending.
While Dimon expressed support for DOGE&#8217;s cost-cutting initiatives, he also cautioned against any potential overreach or illegal activities, stating that &#8220;the courts will stop it.&#8221; Nevertheless, Dimon added, "I'm hoping it's quite successful.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Dimon&#8217;s comments come in the backdrop of his recent reconciliation with Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>). In late January, Dimon referred to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/25/01/43339032/jamie-dimon-calls-elon-musk-our-einstein-after-years-of-feuds-weve-hugged-it-out-and-settled-differences-at-tech-summit">Musk as &#8216;Our Einstein&#8217;</a> after years of public feuds and legal disputes. The two reportedly &#8220;hugged it out&#8221; and settled their differences at a tech summit.
The JPMorgan CEO has also expressed his support for President Donald Trump&#8216;s tariff policy, previously. In January, he had told CNBC, that the upcoming tariffs by the Trump administration could be seen in a positive light. "If it's a little inflationary but it's good for national security, so be it. I mean, get over it," Dimon had said. 
Jamie Dimon recently courted controversy after he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43757032/jamie-dimon-goes-off-on-return-to-office-critics-you-dont-have-to-work-at-jpmorgan">condemned remote work</a>, arguing that it hinders creativity and negatively impacts the social and professional development of younger employees. 
Notably, while the JPMorgan CEO has voiced his support for Musk&#8217;s DOGE initiative, several others have criticized the transparency and working of DOGE. A <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43906977/elon-musks-doge-savings-of-55-billion-may-be-overstated-wsj-analysis-reveals-the-likely-actual-figure">recent analysis by WSJ</a> also revealed that the savings mentioned on the DOGE website could be overstated.

Sanofi Gains Japanese Approval For Sarclisa In Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma Patients

Billionaire entrepreneur and Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban has called the U.S. healthcare system, &#8220;f&#x2A;&#x2A;&#x2A;&#x2A;d up&#8221; while highlighting deductibles as &#8220;the biggest problem in healthcare,&#8221; which are designed by insurance companies.
What Happened: Cuban explained in his latest X post that insurance companies design plans with higher deductibles and lower premiums leaving the work of bill collection in the hands of doctors and hospitals.
A deductible is the amount of money paid by the patient before their insurance company pays for the covered expenses as chosen under their policy.
&#8220;Often we choose higher deductibles because we are healthy or because we can only afford the lowest premium plan,&#8221; adds Cuban, inferring that if higher deductibles were left unpaid hospitals end up becoming &#8220;bill collectors,&#8221; &#8220;DESPITE HAVING NO SAY in the (insurance) plans&#8221; and deductibles bracket that patients choose.
"That is one fucked up system that needs to be redesigned," adds Cuban.

Expert Questions Whether Trump Pushed The iPhone Maker For $500 Billion Investment</a>
Why It Matters: Cuban&#8217;s tweets shed light on the growing problem of high deductibles in the U.S. healthcare system.
The "higher deductibles" turn out to be out-of-pocket costs which create a barrier to accessing care, potentially leading to delayed treatment, worsening health conditions, and mounting medical debt.
Cuban concluded his post by calling out insurance company practices that contribute to healthcare costs, including &#8220;delay tactics&#8221; and denials of claims. He called for a redesigned system for patient well-being and fairness for healthcare providers.
