Deere Options Trading: A Deep Dive into Market Sentiment

Ark Invest, led by Cathie Wood, made significant trades on Monday. Notably, the firm increased its stake in Bitmine Immersion Technologies Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMNR#NYSE">BMNR</a>) and Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMD#NASDAQ">AMD</a>) while reducing its holdings in Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) and Block Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XYZ#NYSE">XYZ</a>). These trades reflect Ark&#8217;s strategic adjustments amid evolving market conditions.
The Bitmine Immersion Trade: Ark Invest made a substantial investment in Bitmine Immersion through Ark Fintech Innovation ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKF#BATS">ARKF</a>), ARK Innovation ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#BATS">ARKK</a>), and ARK Next Generation Internet ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKW#BATS">ARKW</a>). This move comes after Bitmine&#8217;s Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) holdings surpassed $1 billion recently, following a $250 million private placement. Ark&#8217;s acquisition of over 4.4 million shares highlights its confidence in Bitmine&#8217;s strategic pivot to an Ethereum treasury strategy. The total value of this purchase amounts to approximately $174.9 million, based on the latest closing price of $39.57. In the last 30 days, BMNR stock has shot up a whopping 799.3%. The stock has been on a tear after Peter Thiel's Founders Fund Growth II Management <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/07/46432615/bitmine-immersion-technologies-stock-surges-after-hours-whats-going-on">disclosed a 9.1% stake</a> in the company.
The Coinbase Trade: Ark Invest reduced its position in Coinbase Global Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) on July 21, selling shares across ARKF, ARKK, and ARKW. This decision follows Coinbase&#8217;s recent surge to a new 52-week high, driven by a bullish analyst revision and positive legislative developments. Analyst Chris Brendler from Rosenblatt recently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/07/46473148/coinbase-global-stock-hit-a-new-52-week-high-today-whats-going-on">raised his price target</a> for Coinbase to $470, reflecting increased confidence in the company&#8217;s market position. Ark&#8217;s sale of 218,986 shares is valued at approximately $90.6 million, based on the latest closing price of $413.63.
The Block Trade: On the same day, Ark Invest also decreased its stake in Block Inc. (XYZ) within its ARKF ETF. Block&#8217;s shares have been on the rise, gaining 15.5% over the last 5 days as the Jack Dorsey-led company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/07/46511361/jack-dorseys-block-with-over-1-billion-in-bitcoin-holdings-set-to-join-sp-500-shares-pop-8-in-overnight-trading">prepares to join the S&amp;P 500</a>. Over the last 24-hours, the stock has moved up 7.22%. This move underscores Block&#8217;s growing influence in the fintech space, bolstered by its significant Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) holdings. Ark&#8217;s sale of 90,061 shares is valued at approximately $70.3 million, based on the $78.08 closing price.
The AMD Trade: Ark Invest showed confidence in the chipmaker by purchasing shares for its ARKF and ARKW ETFs. Investment expert Jim Cramer recently endorsed AMD, highlighting its positive trajectory amid a volatile tech sector. Ark&#8217;s acquisition of 32,846 shares is valued at approximately $5.16 million, based on the $157 closing price.

Analyst Ratings

Oppenheimer Maintains Outperform on Deere, Raises Price Target to $560

The European Union unveiled a €72 billion ($84.13 billion) countermeasures list targeting U.S. exports, including aircraft, automotive products, and bourbon whiskey, following President Donald Trump&#8216;s threat to impose 30% blanket tariffs on EU goods starting August 1.
What Happened: The European Commission&#8217;s 200-page proposal, seen <a href="https://www.politico.eu/article/eu-to-hit-us-aircraft-cars-and-food-in-latest-retaliatory-strike/">by</a> Politico on Monday, marks the bloc&#8217;s second round of trade countermeasures against escalating U.S. tariff threats. Aircraft and aircraft parts represent the largest category at nearly €11 billion ($12.85 billion), potentially delivering a significant impact to Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>).
Industrial goods comprise €65.7 billion ($76.77 billion) of the targeted exports, while agricultural products account for €6.4 billion. The list includes bourbon whiskey despite intense lobbying from France and Ireland to protect the drinks sector from Trump&#8217;s trade reprisals.
Machinery, automotive products, chemicals, plastics, medical devices, electrical equipment, and industrial goods all fall into multibillion-euro categories. The total represents a reduction from an earlier €95 billion ($111.01 billion) proposal.
The Commission&#8217;s targeting criteria focus on &#8220;rebalancing the playing field&#8221; against U.S. tariffs affecting EU exports, availability of alternative supply sources, and products with high relocation risk, according to the document.

Why It Matters: Trump&#8217;s July 11 letters to Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen outlined the 30% tariff regime, citing trade deficits and market access concerns. The EU correspondence criticized &#8220;non-reciprocal&#8221; trade policies <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/07/46382047/trump-targets-mexico-eu-with-30-tariffs">contributing to substantial U.S. trade deficits</a>.
Trump offered tariff exemptions to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/07/46382047/trump-targets-mexico-eu-with-30-tariffs">firms relocating production to the United States</a>, promising expedited approval processes. The administration warned that attempts to sidestep tariffs through transshipment or retaliatory measures would trigger additional penalties.

Here's How Much You Would Have Made Owning Deere Stock In The Last 5 Years

The United States has announced sweeping new tariffs on imports from both Mexico and the European Union, citing unresolved trade imbalances and ongoing <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/07/46380544/amid-trump-tariffs-us-customs-duty-collection-exceeds-100-billion-in-a-fiscal-year-for-the-first-time-report" rel="noreferrer noopener">issues with narcotics trafficking.</a>
In two <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114840265771030416">letters </a>dated July 11, 2025, President Donald Trump notified the leaders of both regions that 30% tariffs would be levied on their goods beginning August 1, 2025. These <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114840270617633946">letters </a>were posted in the President&#8217;s social media handle Truth Social. 
The tariffs—outlined in direct correspondence with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen—reflect a broad policy shift that places economic pressure on allies to address long-standing U.S. concerns over trade deficits, narcotics trafficking, and market access.
Also Read:<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst-color/25/07/46381861/us-stocks-to-buy-in-q3-2025-wall-street" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Bank Of America Loves These 8 Stocks For Third Quarter—And Says To Dump These 2 Fast</a>
Trump emphasized that the 30% tariff on Mexican imports was partly a response to the country's continued failure to dismantle powerful drug cartels.
The White House warned that if Mexico attempts to sidestep the tariffs through transshipment or imposes retaliatory tariffs, those actions will trigger additional penalties.
However, Trump offered tariff exemptions to firms that relocate production to the United States, promising a fast-tracked approval process.
The European Union's letter criticized the bloc for its &#8220;non-reciprocal&#8221; trade policies and tariffs that have contributed to one of the U.S.'s largest trade deficits.
Trump stated the new tariff regime is a corrective step and will apply broadly to EU goods, excluding those already under sector-specific tariffs.
He assured that companies shifting operations to the U.S. would be spared and supported through expedited regulatory procedures.
In both letters, Trump signaled a willingness to engage—if counterparts take concrete steps to address U.S. concerns.
Here are five strong picks of publicly traded U.S. companies that stand to be affected by the new 30% tariffs on Mexico and the EU:
Deere &amp; Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DE#NYSE">DE</a>) – The agricultural equipment giant expects approximately $500 million in tariff-related costs affecting parts imported from Mexico and the EU, Thw Wall Street Journal <a target="_blank" href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/deeres-plans-for-offsetting-500-million-in-tariff-costs-79ae52d8" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported</a> in May.
General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) – Roughly 30% of General Motors vehicles sold in the U.S. during the first three quarters of 2024 were built in Canada and Mexico, CNBC <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/03/27/gm-stock-trump-auto-tariffs.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported </a>in March.
With around half of its vehicles produced outside the U.S. and facing an estimated $4–5 billion in tariff exposure, the firm has adjusted its 2025 earnings forecasts downward and is boosting U.S. production<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/guidance/25/05/45133096/this-is-how-much-it-will-cost-general-motors-from-trumps-tariff-policy" rel="noreferrer noopener"> to offset impact .</a>
Ford Motor Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) – Ford's earnings are under pressure from higher steel, aluminum, and auto tariffs, with analysts warning that tariffs could cost billions and significantly affect its earnings—specifically due to its heavy parts crossing borders .
5. Whirlpool Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WHR#NYSE">WHR</a>) – With <a href="https://www.whirlpoolcorp.com/global-locations.html?utm_source=chatgpt.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">major </a>manufacturing hubs in Mexico for appliances and parts, a 30% tariff on imports would directly raise costs for Whirlpool's U.S. supply chain and potentially erode its retail margins.
These ETFs may bear the brunt of the new tariffs due to their significant exposure to cross-border manufacturing, European industrials, and Mexico-based production networks: iShares Inc iShares MSCI Mexico ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EWW#NYSE">EWW</a>), SPDR DJ Euro STOXX 50 Etf (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FEZ#NYSE">FEZ</a>), and more.

10 Industrials Stocks With Whale Alerts In Today's Session

Autonomous vehicles, or AVs, are no longer a distant dream or science fiction—they're hitting roads, farms and factories worldwide as breakthroughs in artificial intelligence spark a commercial revolution across <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/autonomous-vehicles">a $1.2 trillion industry.</a>
In a report shared with clients on Tuesday, Bank of America indicated that AVs have reached a pivotal inflection point thanks to dramatic advances in AI, simulation, and computing power.
To date, autonomous robotaxis have completed 186 million commercial miles as of April 2025. These vehicles are now operating in seven global cities, with plans to expand into 20 additional markets in the near future.
&#8220;Autonomous vehicles are having their ‘ChatGPT moment' and are no longer a moonshot," said the bank&#8217;s analyst Martyn Briggs. 
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/07/46204187/palantir-stumbles-solar-stocks-rally-as-senate-approves-tax-bill-whats-moving-markets-tuesday">Palantir Stumbles, Solar Stocks Rally As Senate Approves Tax Bill: What&#8217;s Moving Markets Tuesday?</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">AI, Not Just Automation, Is Driving The AV Revolution</h2>
Unlike earlier generations of self-driving systems, which relied on hard-coded software and maps, the latest wave of AVs is driven by "physical AI," according to the report.
This includes neural networks that continuously learn from real-world data and simulation environments known as "digital twins," which drastically reduce the need for on-road testing.
New capabilities like language models are adding "reasoning and interpretability to driving decisions," Briggs said, while supercomputers integrated into vehicles are enabling autonomous driving in new geographies and use cases.
The cost to deploy AVs is also falling. Hardware, such as LiDAR sensors, is getting cheaper.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Market Potential: Not Just Cars—Everything That Moves</h2>
The AV market is broader than just robotaxis. While cars represent a $700 billion opportunity by 2040, Bank of America estimates the total addressable market doubles to $1.2 trillion when including autonomous trucks, public transit, agricultural and mining vehicles. 
Some off-road AVs are already commercially available, with reported gains of 30% in productivity and 50% labor cost savings in industries like agriculture and mining.
Robotrucks are set to disrupt the $4 trillion global freight market. Autonomous trucking is accelerating fast, with 90 active pilot programs worldwide—two-thirds of which target long-haul freight. 
Seven of these pilots are nearing commercialization, with the goal of large-scale rollouts by 2027. Briggs said the freight industry is poised for transformation as AVs address "structural challenges like driver shortages" while reducing costs.
The story is no longer just about cars: &#8220;Anything that moves could become autonomous," Briggs said.

$1000 Invested In This Stock 5 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

Monopoly maker Hasbro Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HAS#NASDAQ">HAS</a>) announced that it has cut 3% of jobs amid higher tariffs on imports from China. Here&#8217;s a list of five other publicly traded companies that have either reduced their workforce or intend to do so due to the impact of tariffs.
What Happened: After announcing 900 job cuts in December 2023, the Hasbro management told Reuters that it laid off 150 employees or 3% of its workforce in its latest cost-cutting effort on June 18, 2025.
According to its fiscal 2024 annual filing, the company had roughly 4,985 employees globally. The company CEO, Chris Cocks had hinted the same during the first quarter earnings call stating that &#8220;Ultimately, tariffs translate into higher consumer prices, potential job losses as we adjust to absorb increased costs, and reduced profits for our shareholders.&#8221;
He had also said during the same call that the expanded rate on imports from China &#8220;is creating volatility and introducing a range of scenarios for how the year could unfold.&#8221;
Apart from Hasbro, other firms that have reduced their workforce due to tariffs include;
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Stellantis NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>): The automaker announced temporary layoffs of 900 workers across five U.S. facilities due to production pauses at its Canadian and Mexican plants, directly linked to tariffs announced in April 2025.</li>
</ul>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLF#NYSE">CLF</a>): The steelmaker laid off 1,230 workers, with 600 job cuts at its Dearborn, Michigan, plant and 630 at two iron ore mines in Minnesota, citing falling automotive demand due to tariffs on steel and auto imports.</li>
</ul>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>United Parcel Service Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>): UPS announced expected layoffs of approximately 20,000 workers in 2025, citing "current macro-economic uncertainty" and reduced shipping volumes due to tariffs.</li>
</ul>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Volvo ADR (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VLVL#OTC">VLVL</a>): The company plans to lay off 550–800 workers at three U.S. facilities over three months, citing market uncertainty and reduced demand due to tariffs.</li>
</ul>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Deere &amp; Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DE#NYSE">DE</a>): The tractor manufacturer laid off 9 workers at its Ankeny, Iowa, facility, as per a Nation of Change <a href="https://www.nationofchange.org/2025/04/07/over-4000-factory-workers-laid-off-as-trump-tariffs-spark-economic-chaos/">report</a>. The company expressed concerns about the impact of tariffs on production costs.</li>

Why It Matters: President Donald Trump&#8216;s reciprocal tariffs are on pause till July 9 while the administration is trying to strike deals with its trading partners.
Trump declared a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/06/45882971/wall-street-eyes-record-highs-as-trump-seals-china-deal-soft-inflation-eases-tariff-jitters">sweeping new trade agreement</a> with China via Truth Social following two days of negotiations in London last week, suggesting major concessions from Beijing and lighter U.S. obligations. 
"Full magnets, and any necessary rare earths, will be supplied, up front, by China," Trump said, adding that the U.S. would reciprocate by allowing Chinese students access to U.S. colleges.
The deal includes a significant tariff shift. The U.S. will continue applying tariffs totaling 55% on selected Chinese imports, while China will impose a 10% tariff rate on U.S. goods.
Price Action: 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 Tuesday. The SPY was down 0.85% at $597.53, while the QQQ declined 0.98% to $529.08, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a> data.

Several analysts raised the price forecast for Deere &amp; Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DE#NYSE">DE</a>) following the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/DE/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">second-quarter results reported on Thursday</a>.
The company reported net sales and revenue fell 16% year-over-year to $12.76 billion, topping the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45441833/deere-shares-rise-after-q2-beat-despite-steep-sales-declines-across-segments" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus&nbsp;estimate of $10.79 billion</a>.
The company expects FY25 net income to be between $4.75 billion and $5.5 billion (<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance">prior $5 billion and $5.5 billion</a>).
Raymond James analyst Tim Thein raised the price forecast from $530 to $560 while keeping an Outperform rating.

The analyst revised the model to incorporate the stronger-than-anticipated second-quarter operating results and the inclusion of approximately $400 million in tariff-related costs anticipated for the second half of the year.
Thein notes that the largest segment, Production &amp; Precision Agriculture (PP&amp;A), is expected to experience the smallest direct percentage impact from these tariffs.
This highlights DE&#8217;s highly vertically integrated structure and sourcing approach, which likely contributes to its strong relative competitive standing in North America, adds the analyst.
The analyst says the most surprising aspect of the recent quarter and outlook is the PP&amp;A margin guidance for the second half of 2025.
The analyst noted that while the roughly $100 million impact from tariff-related costs was a new factor, and they acknowledged the headwind related to geographic mix (partially due to Europe&#8217;s volumes exceeding those of North America), they believed the implied decremental margin assumption of around 80% would ultimately prove to be conservative.
Thein lowered FY25 EPS estimates to $19.25 from $19.80, as the positive impact of the stronger second-quarter operating performance is more than offset by reduced margin assumptions for the second half of the year.
DE Davisdon analyst Michael Shlisky maintained the Buy rating with a price forecast of $542.
The analyst writes that Deere&#8217;s production and Precision Ag revenues beat their estimates by around 6%, boosting the mix and leading to Equipment operating profit of around 10% above their forecast.
While guidance at the low-end was slightly widened (common amid tariff uncertainty), cash flow projections remained stable, adds the analyst.
The analyst continues to see Global Ag as relatively less risky than discretionary sectors, and DE&#8217;s strong execution could maintain its leadership.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via iShares MSCI Agriculture Producers ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VEGI#NYSE">VEGI</a>) and Global X AgTech &amp; Food Innovation ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KROP#NASDAQ">KROP</a>).
Price Action: DE shares are trading higher by 3.19% to $532.78 at the last check on Friday.
