Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has put forth former U.S. President Donald Trump as a candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize. This nomination was made during a meeting at the White House, highlighting the ongoing collaboration between the U.S. and Israel in addressing Middle Eastern diplomatic issues.
What Happened: Netanyahu presented Trump with a nomination letter during a meeting at the White House on Monday, reported Reuters.
During the meeting, Netanyahu expressed that Israel, alongside the United States, is actively seeking countries willing to improve the future prospects for Palestinians.

Why It Matters: The nomination of Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize by Benjamin Netanyahu is not an isolated event. Earlier this year, Trump himself hinted at his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/45003238/trump-says-he-may-deserve-a-nobel-peace-prize-for-this-reason">potential candidacy</a> for the prize due to his contributions to the Abraham Accords. This historic agreement, signed during his presidency, normalized relations between Israel and several Arab nations, marking a significant diplomatic achievement.
In addition, Pakistan announced its intention to nominate Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, citing his role in <a href="http://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46043222/pakistan-will-nominate-genuine-peacemaker-trump-for-nobel-peace-prize">reducing tensions</a> between India and Pakistan. His intervention during a critical standoff between these nuclear-armed neighbors was credited with averting a potential conflict, according to Islamabad.

Trump Proposed For Nobel Prize By Netanyahu, Israeli PM Says Seeking Countries To Provide Palestinians Better Future

A recent episode of &#8220;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZwraX7z64g">The Ramsey Show</a>&#8221; featured a caller who revealed a complicated financial and personal situation that left co-hosts John Delony and Jade Warshaw urging her to take action.
The woman named Beth explained that her husband owns a house in New Jersey that he rents to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/financial-advisors/25/06/46159715/a-caller-told-dave-ramsey-his-girlfriend-was-overspending-on-his-credit-card-ramseys-response-you-gave-your-roommate-a-credit-card">his ex-girlfriend</a>. He doesn't even collect the rent himself; she pays the mortgage directly, which has only added to the lack of accountability.
The two share a child, which is why the arrangement was initially made. But the caller said the ex has been consistently late on rent, and it&#8217;s now affecting their chances of buying a new home.

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Late Payments, Damaged Credit</h2>
&#8220;She's been <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/what-happens-if-you-miss-a-mortgage-payment">late on payments</a>,&#8221; the caller said, noting that the mortgage is solely in her husband&#8217;s name. &#8220;In this year alone&#8230; she was late on three payments past the 30-day mark.&#8221;
According to a deeper credit report, the ex has made about 20 late payments in the last five years. This history has now shown up on the husband&#8217;s credit report, jeopardizing their ability to qualify for a mortgage.
&#8220;You're not getting a house,&#8221; Warshaw said flatly. &#8220;Not for a while.&#8221;
Delony acknowledged that the husband may have avoided direct involvement to minimize conflict. &#8220;He doesn't have an obligation to that mother or that new stepdad. That's their responsibility,&#8221; he said.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Time To Sell</h2>
Both hosts strongly advised selling the home.
&#8220;Y'all got to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/real-estate/24/06/39418407/dave-ramseys-advice-for-selling-your-house-quickly-this-isnt-rocket-science-but-its-key">sell the house</a>,&#8221; Delony said. &#8220;This has been going on long enough. It's been five years for crying out loud,&#8221; Warshaw added. &#8220;You&#8217;re not throwing them out. You&#8217;re giving them five, six months to get their own space. That&#8217;s fair. He owns the house.&#8221;
The caller said her husband has been responsible with money overall and his credit score is still in the low 700s. But the emotional dynamics of the breakup and desire to provide stability for his daughter had complicated things. Still, both hosts emphasized that the situation had dragged on too long.
&#8220;You've been the safety net this whole time,&#8221; Warshaw said. &#8220;If they&#8217;re struggling with $1,100 on this rent, they&#8217;re struggling struggling.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bigger Picture Questions</h2>
Beth also revealed that the father only sees his daughter every other weekend. Delony questioned whether that arrangement still makes sense, especially since it was based on his old work schedule.
&#8220;If he is okay seeing his daughter every other weekend, more power to you,&#8221; Delony said. &#8220;I couldn't live like that. If her new stepdad and her biological mom cannot afford to find a place to live, cannot afford groceries, I&#8217;m going to have a different conversation with them in the courts about my daughter&#8217;s well-being and safety, right?&#8221;
Delony wrapped it up in one line: &#8220;I'm not going to burn down my financial life supporting somebody that has no interest in supporting themselves.&#8221;

The celebration of America's 250th birthday is less than a year away and work is already being done on the planning for<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/45894541/trump-sports-president-military-birthday-parade"> the country's semiquincentennial.</a>
Sports fans could get treated to live events happening at the White House on July 4, 2026, and in a different U.S. city to celebrate the historic American anniversary.
UFC at White House Proposed: President Donald Trump has been a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40298813/trump-snaps-back-at-joe-rogan-asking-how-loudly-hed-get-booed-when-he-enters-ufc-ring-next-time-afte"> big fan of the UFC,</a> the mixed martial arts company owned by TKO Group Holdings Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TKO#NYSE">TKO</a>), for years.
The president recently said that he was considering hosting a UFC fight at the White House as part of America's 250th anniversary celebration. The UFC <a href="https://frontofficesports.com/ufc-confirms-talks-to-bring-fight-to-white-house-grounds/">confirmed </a>to Front Office Sports that the discussions are real and underway.
July 4, 2026, will mark the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence and watching professional fighters beat each other up at the White House could be one of the key celebrations for Americans across the country.
UFC has taken part in fights around the world in unique venues, but creating an Octagon inside or outside the White House could be among the biggest challenges yet. A UFC fight would also mark the first pro sports event hosted at the White House if the talks lead to an official event.

U.S. Soccer Celebration: The U.S. Men's National Soccer Team is one of several co-hosts for the 2026 World Cup and has already qualified for the tournament as a result.
This year's World Cup will feature 48 teams for the first time, as opposed to the 32 that have been included every four years in recent tournament history. The top two teams of each group (12 groups) along with the eight best third-place teams will qualify for the Round of 32.
It is currently unknown which group Team USA will be part of. If they manage to make it past their group and into the Round of 32, they could set up a huge American anniversary celebration.
Two of the Round of 16 games will be <a href="https://www.fifa.com/en/tournaments/mens/worldcup/canadamexicousa2026/articles/match-schedule-fixtures-results-teams-stadiums">played </a>on July 4, 2026, with one played in Houston and one played in Philadelphia. While neither game will take place in Washington, D.C., as American sports go, this could be one of the biggest in Team USA history.
The U.S. Men's National Soccer Team previously <a href="https://www.ussoccer.com/stories/2024/07/finals-bound-on-the-fourth">played </a>on July 4, 1994, losing 1-0 to Brazil in the Round of 16. The U.S. Women's National Soccer Team previously played on July 4, 1999, defeating Brazil 2-0 in the semifinals to advance to the tournament final.
Neither of those events happened during a huge anniversary year like the potential of Team USA playing on the country's semiquincentennial.
Of course, to make it to the Round of 16, Team USA may have to be playing better than recent matches, after losing the Gold Cup final to Mexico over the Fourth of July weekend this year. Team USA is currently ranked with the 13th best odds to win the World Cup at DraftKings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DKNG#NASDAQ">DKNG</a>) at +4,000.
Fox Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FOX#NASDAQ">FOX</a>), which has the U.S. rights to the 2026 World Cup games, is likely to see strong viewership the longer Team USA is in it.
While it's a year away and logistics need to be worked out and Team USA needs to make the right Round of 16 game, there is the possibility that sports fans get to watch<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/sports-betting/25/06/45983571/joey-chestnut-the-goat-returns-after-16-hot-dog-titles-can-anyone-stop-him"> Joey Chestnut eat hot dogs</a>, Team USA win a World Cup Round of 16 game and watch UFC fighters compete in a White House Octagon all on the country's birthday.

For years, cable television has dominated the ratings for one week in summer with Warner Bros. Discovery's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBD#NASDAQ">WBD</a>) "Shark Week." The company's stranglehold on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45298158/warner-bros-stock-falls-as-weak-studio-ad-sales-weigh-on-q1-despite-streaming-gains">summer shark content </a>could be coming to an end with streaming giant Netflix Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NFLX#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) taking a bite out of the popular ocean content.
What Happened: Fans of Discovery Channel and "Shark Week" are waiting until later this month, July 20-26, to view content that's part of the 37th annual Shark Week. Ahead of this content, consumers have options to watch shark-themed content from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/04/44877995/netflix-crushes-q1-says-its-working-hard-to-improve-and-expand-its-offering">streaming giant Netflix</a> and another cable company.
Netflix launched "All the Sharks," a new reality competition on July 4. The series features four teams of shark experts who try to photograph the most different shark types before the end of the competition, as <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-features/netflix-shark-whisperer-vs-shark-week-sharkfest-1236303707/">reported </a>by The Hollywood Reporter.
The streaming company also premiered "Shark Whisperer," a documentary that has ranked among the streamer's top 10 most-watched films every day.
Netflix will also have the streaming rights for the four "Jaws" films starting on July 15, with the first film recently celebrating its 50th anniversary this summer.
SharkFest kicked off on July 5 with "Sharks Up Close With Bertie Gregory." SharkFest is in its 13th season as an annual tradition of shark content from the National Geographic Channel, which is 83% owned by Walt Disney Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>).
SharkFest will have more hours than normal through July 13 with 25 hours, throwing another potential challenge for Shark Week.

Why It's Important: With Netflix's push for shark content and SharkFest growing, what once was a dominant week of content for Warner Bros. Discovery could now face viewer fatigue.
Content during these shark weeks of summer have done well for cable television and could now face the challenge of fending off Netflix, who got a head start on the race.
Last year, SharkFest had over 69 million views on content, including on National Geographic and through streaming on Disney+ and Hulu.
Last year's Shark Week had over 25 million views for content on Discovery Channel and streaming on Discovery+ and MAX.
Content for Shark Week ranked strong in the key age 25-54 demographic, with the shark content placing in seven of the top 10 spots for the week for the age 25-54 demo for ad-supported cable, excluding news and sports.
News of Netflix taking SharkFest and Shark Week head on comes <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/entertainment/25/06/45978982/streaming-dethrones-tv-giants-netflix-youtube-lead-the-takeover">after streaming viewership </a>for the month of May surpassed the total of broadcast and cable television combined for the first time ever with a 44.8% market share to 44.2% market share, according to Nielsen data.
The remaining 10.9% was listed as miscellaneous categories.
Netflix continues to dominate streaming and is getting closer to disrupting all the major content wins of broadcast and cable television with entries in live sports, awards shows, reality television, shark content and more.

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

Correction: The current prime minister of Japan is Shigeru Ishiba, not Fumio Kishida. 
The U.S. dollar is notching its strongest one-day gain against the Japanese yen in nearly two months as traders react to President Donald Trump's sweeping new tariffs targeting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/07/46281204/wall-street-today-trump-tariffs-japan-south-korea-stocks-drop">multiple U.S. trading partners.</a>
Starting Aug. 1, all goods imported from Japan and other Asian trading partners will face a 25% tariff, Trump announced Monday, citing persistent trade imbalances and unfair practices.
The move follows a 90-day pause for negotiations that fell short of providing a better outcome than the &#8220;Liberation Day&#8221; duties on April 2. And now, the fallout is landing hard.
The dollar surged past 146 yen, gaining 1.2% on the day—its sharpest move since May 12. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Markets Shake As White House Sends Tariff Letters To Trading Partners</h3>
In an official letter to Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba, Trump stated that the new tariffs aim to address what he called "years of Japan&#8217;s tariff and non-tariff policies and trade barriers."
He also warned that any retaliatory tariffs would be met with proportional increases by the U.S. and said transshipped goods would face higher rates. 
He also offered an out: Japanese companies that move production to the U.S. won't face tariffs — and he promised quick approvals for those who do.
According to International Trade Statistics data, U.S. imports from Japan totaled $152.07 billion in 2024, with vehicles accounting for $51.27 billion and machinery, including nuclear reactors and boilers, adding another $36.05 billion.
The White House stated that the tariff levels could be revised based on bilateral trade relationships, with the goal of reducing trade deficits and protecting U.S. national security.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">More Countries Face Tariff Hikes</h3>
South Korea will also face a 25% tariff starting in August under the same terms as Japan. The dollar gained 0.9% against the Korean won in the session, reinforcing the greenback's strength amid heightened global tensions.
Several other countries were also named in the tariff list, including:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Malaysia: 25% tariff</li>
<li>South Africa: 30% tariff;</li>
<li>Kazakhstan: 25% tariff,</li>
<li>Laos and Myanmar: 40% tariffs</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">ETFs Took A Beating</h3>
Country-focused ETFs sold off hard on Monday: 
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>The iShares MSCI Japan ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EWJ#NYSE">EWJ</a>) dropped 2.3%, marking its worst session since April 10. That's a sharp reversal after a 25% rally off spring lows.</li>

<h2>Understanding the Relevance of Analyst Ratings</h2>
Benzinga tracks 150 analyst firms and reports on their stock expectations. Analysts typically arrive at their conclusions by predicting how much money a company will make in the future, usually the upcoming five years, and how risky or predictable that company's revenue streams are.
Analysts attend company conference calls and meetings, research company financial statements, and communicate with insiders to publish their ratings on stocks. Analysts typically rate each stock once per quarter or whenever the company has a major update.
Some analysts publish their predictions for metrics such as growth estimates, earnings, and revenue to provide additional guidance with their ratings. When using analyst ratings, it is important to keep in mind that stock and sector analysts are also human and are only offering their opinions to investors.

(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CEG#NASDAQ">CEG</a>) stock increased by 9.36%, and in the past year, by 47.37%.

<h3>Evaluating Constellation Energy P/E in Comparison to Its Peers</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 18.78 in the Electric Utilities industry, Constellation Energy Inc. has a higher P/E ratio of 32.86. Shareholders might be inclined to think that Constellation Energy Inc. might perform better than its industry group. It's also possible that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1751925617_1.png" alt="Guage" />

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.
