SpaceX&#8216;s Starlink team and T-Mobile US Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TMUS#NASDAQ">TMUS</a>) have activated their Direct-to-Cell coverage to provide emergency alerts for all phones and telecommunications carriers in areas affected by Hurricane Helene as well as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41209505/hurricane-milton-is-floridas-second-storm-in-two-weeks-how-disney-theme-parks-insurance-companie">Florida ahead of Hurricane Milton</a>, the company said on Tuesday.
What Happened: The satellites will allow those in hurricane-affected areas to send text messages to their near and dear ones, contact 911, or receive emergency alerts.
When connected to a Starlink satellite, the phone will show &#8220;T-Mobile SpaceX&#8221; in the network name and have one or two bars of signal, the company said. However, messages might not go through on the first try and might require users to retry, the company said while adding that the service is being delivered on a best-effort basis. 
&#8220;The service works best outdoors, and occasionally works indoors near a window,&#8221; the company added.

Cryptocurrency asset trading and management firm Canary Capital has lodged a registration statement with the SEC for an XRP (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/xrp/usd">XRP</a>) exchange-traded fund (ETF), marking the second such filing this month.
What Happened: Canary Capital submitted the S-1 <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/2039505/000199937124013130/0001999371-24-013130-index.htm">filing</a>—a prerequisite for issuers to file&nbsp;to publicly offer new securities—on Tuesday. 
The proposed Canary XRP ETF intended to provide direct exposure to the value of XRP held by the trust and allow investors the opportunity to access the market through a traditional brokerage account
Canary Capital didn&#8217;t immediately return Benzinga&#8217;s request for comment.

What Happened: Tesla said in a post on social media platform X that the company will deploy mobile superchargers after the hurricane to help its vehicle owners. The company said these superchargers would be powered by its batteries called Megapacks. Each Megapack unit can store over 3.9 MWh of energy. 
In addition to deploying mobile superchargers, the company will also focus on restoration of the supercharger network, it said.

Tesla Advises Owners To Fully Charge EVs At Home As Hurricane Milton Approaches, Plans Mobile Superchargers For Aftermath

Shytoshi Kusama, the mysterious lead developer and co-founder of the Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/shib/usd">SHIB</a>) ecosystem, shared a cryptic post, sparking intrigue and speculation in the cryptocurrency community.
What happened: The suspenseful figure reposted a message from another X user, Tsukiyomi Mishima, captioned, "I think this will be the last chapter to my story…"
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>

For the curious, ‘Tsukiyomi' refers to the god of the moon in Japanese mythology, while ‘Mishima' could be linked to the author Yukio Mishima.
The post also featured &#8220;The Great Wave off Kanagawa&#8221; a woodblock print by the artist Hokusai, which was created during the Edo period.
While we don&#8217;t know for certain, the message could be alluding to Kusama&#8217;s eventual departure from the project, similar to his predecessor Ryoshi, or anticipating SHIB&#8217;s journey &#8220;to the moon.&#8221;

Earlier in July, Kusama stated that they were nearing completion of founder Ryoshi&#8217;s vision of a completely decentralized system with no leader and that he, too,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/07/39679680/shiba-inus-shytoshi-kusama-to-go-into-oblivion-like-founder-ryoshi-i-also-will-step-away-f"> would &#8220;step away from the limelight&#8221;</a> at some point.

Shiba Inu Lead Developer Shytoshi Kusama Reshares Mysterious Post About 'The Last Chapter To My Story'— Is He Hinting At An Exit From Project Or A Potential Moon Run?

Chinese stocks experienced a sharp selloff on Wednesday, continuing a volatile trend across Asia-Pacific markets. The Hang Seng Index (HSI) in Hong Kong dropped 1.39% to 20,635.11, following Tuesday&#8217;s devastating 9.41% plunge—its worst single-day <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41227136/chinese-stocks-plunge-as-stimulus-hopes-fade-hong-kong-posts-worst-daily-decline-si">loss since the 2008 financial crisis</a>.
What Happened: The mainland CSI 300 index also suffered, dropping 5.39%. This sharp reversal comes after weeks of robust performance that had positioned Chinese stocks among the top global performers year-to-date.
Tech giants bore the brunt of the downturn:
<ul>
<li>JD.com (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JD#NASDAQ">JD</a>) plummeted 7.52% on the Hong Kong stock exchange. </li>
<li>Alibaba (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABAF#OTC">BABAF</a>) fell 2.78%</li>
<li>Baidu (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIDU#NASDAQ">BIDU</a>) lost 1.65% on HKEX</li>
<li>Tencent (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TCEHY#OTC">TCEHY</a>) declined 1.32%</li>
</ul>
Analysts attribute the selloff to investors locking in profits and growing disappointment over the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/10/41223117/alibaba-tencent-jd-com-and-baidu-slide-over-8-as-chinas-28b-stimulus-boost-misses-the-mark">lack of aggressive fiscal stimulus</a> from Beijing. 
The contrast was stark in Japan, where the Nikkei 225 climbed 0.6%, highlighting the divergent market sentiments across the region.

Renowned economist Peter Schiff poked fun at Michael Saylor, recommending that the MicroStrategy Inc.

What Happened: On Tuesday, Schiff took to X to express his views on the U.S. government&#8217;s decision to sell 69,370 BTC it had <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/22/11/29596887/us-department-of-justice-seizes-3-36b-in-bitcoin-from-silk-road-dark-web-fraud">seized from the dark web marketplace</a> Silk Road.

&#8220;Every once in a while, the government does something smart. I think Michael Saylor should have MicroStrategy borrow another $4.3 billion and buy it,&#8221; Schiff said, mocking the company&#8217;s Bitcoin reserve strategy.

Palantir, Roblox, Boeing, Robinhood, Tesla: Why These 5 Stocks Are On Investors' Radars Today

ByteDance-owned TikTok is facing legal action from&nbsp;13 U.S. states and the&nbsp;District of Columbia.&nbsp;The states accuse TikTok of&nbsp;causing harm to its younger users.
What Happened: On Tuesday, separate lawsuits were filed&nbsp;in New York, California, the&nbsp;District of Columbia, and 11 other states, accusing TikTok of using software designed to keep children&nbsp;engaged for extended periods, reported Reuters.
The short-form&nbsp;video platform is also accused of misrepresenting the effectiveness of its content moderation.
California Attorney General Rob Bonta&nbsp;said,&nbsp;&#8220;TikTok cultivates social media addiction&nbsp;to boost corporate profits.&#8221; The states argue that TikTok seeks to maximize user engagement to target them with ads.

New York Attorney General Letitia&nbsp;James stated,&nbsp;&#8220;Young people are struggling with&nbsp;their mental health because of addictive social media platforms like&nbsp;TikTok.&#8221;
TikTok responded to these allegations, saying that many are &#8220;inaccurate and misleading.&#8221; The company expressed disappointment that&nbsp;the states chose to sue&nbsp;rather than collaborate on solutions to industrywide challenges.
Washington D.C. Attorney General Brian&nbsp;Schwalb accused TikTok of operating&nbsp;an unlicensed money transmission business&nbsp;through its live streaming and&nbsp;virtual currency features, the report noted.

Why It Matters: This legal action against TikTok comes on the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38508391/after-biden-signs-tiktok-ban-into-law-top-eu-leader-says-not-ruling-out-action-against-chinese-platf">heels of a bill signed by</a> President Joe Biden, which could force TikTok&#8217;s parent company, ByteDance, to sell the company or face a ban in the U.S.
This also follows&nbsp;a nationwide probe of TikTok&#8217;s impact on young people launched by eight states in March 2022.
Meta Platforms, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), which owns Instagram and Facebook, Snap Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNAP#NYSE">SNAP</a>), and Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s (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>) YouTube could gain from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/03/37710878/congress-moves-to-ban-tiktok-could-members-benefit-from-positions-in-social-media-stocks-like-meta-p">rising concerns about TikTok</a>.
According to Apptopia, TikTok has consistently outpaced other major social media apps, including Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat, YouTube, and X (formerly Twitter), in U.S. downloads every quarter since 2020.
However, when the ByteDance-owned platform was banned in India, platforms like YouTube, Instagram, and local short-video apps Moj and Josh experienced major user growth in the country, according to Sensor Tower.
With TikTok facing legal scrutiny, users may migrate to other platforms. Moreover, as advertisers reassess their strategies, they may shift their budgets toward platforms perceived as more stable or compliant with regulations.

Cathie Wood's Ark Invest Trades: Bets $14M On Amazon Shares — Dumps Robinhood Stock Worth $36M, Embraces Coinbase And Meta

Pfizer Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PFE#NYSE">PFE</a>) CEO Albert Bourla is set to meet with activist investor Starboard Value amid growing pressure to revitalize the pharmaceutical giant&#8217;s struggling share price and refine its strategic focus. The meeting comes as Starboard builds a $1 billion stake in Pfizer, equivalent to about 0.6% of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41199793/amid-pfizers-struggles-with-declining-demand-for-covid-19-treatments-activist-investor-starboard">company&#8217;s $165 billion market value</a>.
What Happened: Bourla and at least one other director will hold talks with Starboard next week, following the revelation of the fund&#8217;s significant investment. The activist investor, led by CEO Jeff Smith, is calling for a strategy shift and has prepared an extensive slide deck outlining its turnaround plans, <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/38a73294-f6b0-48c8-a29a-8626c2da30d5">reported</a> the Financial Times citing people familiar with the matter.
The mounting pressure on Pfizer&#8217;s leadership comes as the company&#8217;s stock has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41212540/pfizer-stock-is-moving-higher-monday-whats-driving-the-action">fallen more than 30% over the past two years</a>, sinking below pre-pandemic levels. According to the report, critics argue that Pfizer has mismanaged its $92 billion COVID-19 windfall, particularly pointing to a costly $70 billion acquisition spree that has failed to boost the company&#8217;s valuation.
In an unusual twist, two of Pfizer&#8217;s former top executives, ex-CEO Ian Read and former CFO Frank D&#8217;Amelio, are reportedly collaborating with Starboard. The pair has reached out to at least four Pfizer directors, urging them to consider working with the activist investor, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/health/pharma/pfizer-ceos-job-is-at-risk-a-shot-of-discipline-could-help-1b210b18">reported</a> The Wall Street Journal.
Analysts and investors are speculating about potential management changes, with some receptive to the idea. However, others caution that a mere change at the top may not be sufficient to address Pfizer&#8217;s challenges, citing the importance of a promising drug pipeline for long-term success in the pharmaceutical industry.
"We've sensed investor frustration with CEO Albert Bourla since at least the beginning of 2023," BMO Capital Markets analyst&nbsp;Evan Seigerman&nbsp;wrote, according to WSJ.
Pfizer and Starboard Value did not immediately respond to&nbsp;<a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga</a>&#8216;s request for comment.

Why It Matters: Starboard is expected to push for a more focused development strategy and deeper cost cuts beyond the $5.5 billion reduction already announced by Pfizer through 2027. Critics argue that Pfizer&#8217;s recent acquisitions, spanning neuroscience, blood disorders, and cancer, lack a clear, cohesive focus.
Bourla has acknowledged missing earnings expectations and weak commercial performance but maintains that investors haven&#8217;t fully appreciated the potential value of recent acquisitions, such as the $43 billion Seagen deal.
As pressure mounts, Bourla has shown signs of attentiveness to Wall Street critics. Earlier this year, he hired Andrew Baum, a former Pfizer bear at Citi, as chief strategy and innovation officer, in a move reminiscent of Novartis&#8216; hiring of outspoken analyst Ronny Gal.
In a bid to streamline its operations, Pfizer recently divested a $3.3 billion stake in Haleon, reducing its shareholding from 22.6% to 15%. Despite these efforts, the company remains <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41112790/pfizer-divests-3-3b-stake-in-sensodyne-toothpaste-and-panadol-painkiller-maker-haleon">under pressure to deliver better financial returns</a> and strategic clarity.
Price Action: Pfizer&#8217;s stock closed on Tuesday at $29.18, down 0.068% during regular trading hours. However, in after-hours trading, the stock gained 0.31%. Year to date, Pfizer&#8217;s stock has fallen by 1.85%, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.
