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

President-elect Donald Trump suggested Tuesday that Canada could become the 51st U.S. state as he criticized trade imbalances and subsidies, signaling a potential escalation in economic and political tensions <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/canada">with America's northern neighbor.</a>
Speaking during a press conference at Mar-a-Lago, Trump leveled sharp criticism at Canada, accusing the country of exploiting U.S. generosity on trade and defense.
"We're spending hundreds of billions a year to protect Canada," Trump said, while also alleging the U.S. loses over $200 billion annually in trade deficits with the nation.
"Why should we have a $200 billion deficit and subsidize their defense?" Trump asked. &#8220;They should be a state.&#8221;
In 2022, the U.S. trade deficit with Canada for goods and services was $53.5 billion, according to the U.S. Trade Representative&#8217;s office. 
Trump mentioned a conversation with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42823979/canadas-pm-justin-trudeau-steps-down-amid-internal-conflict-and-tension-over-trump-tariffs">outgoing Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau</a>, who, according to Trump, said that Canada would "dissolve" without the U.S.'s economic and security assistance.
 "Canada wouldn't be able to function if we didn't take that 20% of our car market," Trump said, referring to the high volume of Canadian-made cars exported to the U.S.
When asked whether he would consider military force to annex and acquire Canada, Trump replied, &#8220;Economic force.&#8221;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Tariffs And Trade Deficits</h3>
Trump's remarks also hinted at the possibility of tariffs on Canadian goods if no resolution is reached.
"We don't need their cars, and we don't need their lumber," Trump said, arguing that U.S. industries could easily replace Canadian imports.
While Trump's mention of Canada becoming a U.S. state may have sounded speculative, his broader message will certainly grab the attention of the market. 
"It's a tremendous amount of money, and why should we give it to them as a separate country? That's okay to have if you're a state," Trump said
Trump also framed the idea of erasing the "artificially drawn line" between the two countries as a move that would benefit both sides economically and in terms of national security. 
The iShares MSCI Canada ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EWW#NYSE">EWW</a>) dropped 0.4% following Trump's comments, reflecting investor concerns about the potential impact of trade barriers. The Invesco CurrencyShares Canadian Dollar Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FXC#NYSE">FXC</a>) was 0.1% lower by 3 p.m. ET.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Mexico And The &#8216;Gulf Of America&#8217;</h3>
Mexico faces a similar threat from the incoming White House administration. Trump described the country as being "run by cartels" and criticized the ongoing flow of drugs and migrants across the southern border.
He raised the idea of "substantial tariffs" on Mexican imports as a way to offset the economic costs of illegal immigration and crime.
Energy policy took center stage as Trump vowed to overturn President Joe Biden's ban <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42821300/biden-set-to-ban-future-offshore-oil-drilling-4-stocks-to-watch">on offshore drilling</a> on over 625 million acres of the ocean, calling it "a crime" against America's economic potential.
Trump promised to revoke the ban on his first day in office.
Trump also announced plans to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the "Gulf of America," a symbolic move underscoring his energy-first strategy. 
"We have oil and gas reserves that no one else has," he said, estimating that offshore drilling could add $50 trillion in value to the U.S. economy.
Mexican stocks performed positively on Tuesday, with the iShares MSCI Mexico ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EWW#NYSE">EWW</a>) up 1.4%, following a 1.6% surge a day earlier.

SoundHound AI, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOUN#NASDAQ">SOUN</a>) shares are trading lower on Tuesday as the broader tech sector declined. The drop followed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/42850914/us-services-sector-growth-tops-forecasts-but-price-pressures-tariff-concerns-cloud-outlook">economic data, rising treasury yields</a>, and NVIDIA Corp&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) announcements at CES 2025.
What To Know: At CES, NVIDIA unveiled its Cosmos foundation models, which generate synthetic data to train robots and autonomous vehicles, new RTX 50 series gaming chips, and its first desktop computer for AI development. While these announcements highlight advancements in AI and robotics, analysts potentially remain skeptical about their immediate commercial viability. NVIDIA's stock dropped over 4%, reflecting investor concerns about the scalability of emerging technologies, which may have impacted sentiment across the sector, including for SoundHound AI.
The labor market data also added further pressure, with job openings exceeding expectations at 8.1 million in November. Strong hiring pushed Treasury yields higher, with the 30-year yield reaching 4.90%, increasing costs for tech firms reliant on borrowing for growth. Rising yields and NVIDIA&#8217;s mixed reception at CES have created a challenging environment for AI companies like SoundHound to maintain investor confidence.
Why It Matters: SoundHound's drop may reflect broader sector challenges, including competition from larger players like NVIDIA and economic conditions making it harder for growth-oriented companies to attract investor support.

QUBT

What the Options Market Tells Us About Quantum Computing

While the holiday season tends to brighten spirits, love was certainly not in the air for Signet Jewelers Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SIG#NYSE">SIG</a>). Early last month, the diamond jewelry retailer posted <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/12/42340973/signet-jewelers-stock-tanks-after-dismal-q3-print-guidance-cut">disappointing results</a> for its fiscal third quarter. Nevertheless, investors historically have bought extreme dips in SIG stock, opening the real possibility of a near-term bullish options strategy.
On paper, Signet posted adjusted earnings per share of 24 cents, missing Wall Street's consensus view of 33 cents. On the top line, the company rang up sales of $1.35 billion, which unfortunately represented a 3.1% year-over-year decline. As well, this figure missed analysts' revenue target of $1.37 billion.
During the conference call, Signet CFO Joan Hilson remarked that the competitive environment dragged down the Q3 print. What also sent investors rushing for the exits was management guiding current-quarter sales to a range between $2.38 billion and $2.46 billion. Previously, the consensus stood at $2.45 billion.
Still, the market tends to move on anticipated events. Given that the poor print is now in the rearview mirror, traders may consider looking at SIG stock from a fresh perspective.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Fundamental and Technical Underpinnings Point Northward for SIG Stock</h2>
To be sure, the dynamic political and economic ecosystem presents significant concerns for investors. Nevertheless, key datapoints suggest that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/01/42850914/us-services-sector-growth-tops-forecasts-but-price-pressures-tariff-concerns-cloud-outlook">consumer sentiment is generally improving</a>, which may have positive implications for Signet's core business. After all, academic research indicates an <a href="https://www.bgsu.edu/content/dam/BGSU/college-of-arts-and-sciences/NCFMR/documents/FP/FP-14-18-marriage-rate-recession.pdf">inverse correlation</a> between rising unemployment and odds of marriage.
Recently, the stronger-than-expected December Purchasing Managers' Index highlighted resilience in the U.S. services sector. Further, the Bureau of Labor Statistics released its Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey data for November, revealing that the namesake metric rose by 259,000 to 8.1 million. This figure exceeded market expectations of 7.7 million.
It should be noted that vacancies increased for white-collar categories, such as professional and business services and finance and insurance. Put another way, the vacancies were tied to sectors that <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/markcperna/2024/08/15/gen-z-blue-collar-career-opportunity/">younger workers prefer</a>.
Beyond the fundamentals, investors may also take confidence in the technical framework of SIG stock. For the past 20 years, SIG commands an upward bias when viewed from a month-over-month performance basis. Specifically, out of 252 months, 136 posted a positive return on a sequential basis, thus yielding bullish probabilities of nearly 54%.
Intriguingly, the aforementioned upward bias improves whenever SIG stock encounters severe monthly volatility. For example, last month, SIG suffered a drop of just under 20%. Since January 2004, there have been 22 instances when Signet stock incurred a one-month decline of 15% or worse. Out of this tally, 14 subsequent months saw a positive return or 63.64% of the time. Moreover, the average positive return landed at 18%.

Of course, history isn't guaranteed to repeat. But the combination of supportive fundamentals and the technical dip-buying tendency bodes favorably for SIG stock.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A High-Risk, High-Reward Call Spread Beckons</h2>
Recognizing that the market tends to get greedy when extreme fear strikes SIG stock, daring speculators may consider an options strategy called the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/bull-spread">bull call spread</a>. This multi-leg transaction involves buying a call option and simultaneously selling a call at a higher strike price for the same expiration date. Here, traders can discount their long position by using the credit from the short call to partially offset the debit paid for the long call.
Assuming prior statistical trends play out, by the end of this month, SIG stock could be up 18% against December's close or around $95.24. To provide some margin for error, aggressive traders may consider the 85/90 bull call spread (buy the $85 call, sell the $90 call) for the options chain expiring Feb. 21, 2025.
The above transaction provides a month-and-a-half for the bullish thesis to pan out, enabling traders the potential choice of exiting the position early. Also, SIG would only need to hit $90 (an 11.5% increase from December's final session) to receive the maximum reward.
To be upfront, the time-of-writing max payout of almost 355% indicates that market makers believe SIG stock hitting $90 by expiration to be a low-probability event. However, the counterargument is that the combination of improving fundamentals and a technical tendency of extreme-value hunting makes for a surprisingly tempting transaction.

Shares of companies within the broader tech sector are trading lower amid overall market weakness following recent economic data and a rise in yields. Also, the sector may be falling in response to a recent pullback in NVIDIA as investors evaluate CES announcements.

Shell PLC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHEL#NYSE">SHEL</a>) shares are trading higher Tuesday following an upgrade from Morgan Stanley. Martijn Rats upgraded Shell shares from Equal-Weight to Overweight and raised the price target from $66.50 to $79.80, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SHEL/analyst-ratings">reflecting a 20% potential upside.</a>
Rats concluded that Shell's financial strength, combined with a favorable valuation, makes it well-positioned to weather ongoing challenges in the energy sector while delivering sustainable returns. 
The analyst noted that while the energy sector sharply underperformed in the second half of 2024, much of the downside risk is now priced in. He explained that Shell&#8217;s financial resilience and compelling valuation metrics supported the rating change. The analyst observed that Shell trades at 0.4 times the market&#8217;s price-to-cash flow multiple and offers a dividend yield 1.7 times higher than the market average.
Rats also said that Shell&#8217;s strong free cash flow outlook and lower risk of year-over-year distribution reductions set it apart from peers. Despite ongoing minor downward pressures on consensus earnings estimates for the sector, he said the earnings downgrade cycle is nearing completion.
The analyst also noted the mixed prospects for the oil and gas markets in 2025. While gas markets remain robust, oil markets appear well supplied, and downstream margins are likely to stay under pressure. Rats and his team noted that Shell's financial metrics position it to outperform in this challenging environment, especially compared to other major players in the sector.
SHEL Price Action: Shell shares were up 1.80% at $65.92 at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Shell Shares Are On The Rise Today: What's going On?

Wall Street enters 2025 singing the same song it has sung for the past few years:
Artificial Intelligence!
Quantum Computing!
FinTech!
Tesla! (Ticker: TSLA)
Crypto!
Tech!
More tech!
That is where the action is; as we know, these things can grow forever, and nothing could go wrong.
The business&#8217;s more &#8220;prominent&#8221; folks suggest indexing and a 60-40 mix of stocks and bonds.
Never mind that this exposes you to a massive position in high-multiple tech stocks and low total returns over the next decade.
It is prudent.
All the textbooks say so.
I am more interested in the things Wall Street never talks about.
Wall Street never mentions the type of small banks mentioned last week.
Old economy companies trading for less than the liquidation value of the assets they own are never talked about.
Unless they are doing an IPO that lures buyers willing to pay a high fee, you will never hear closed-end funds mentioned.
When they are out of favor and trading at a discount to the value of the stocks and bonds in the fund and throwing off a high stream of regular income, the big firms and Instant Experts of the internet are as silent as the mice scurrying in the rafters of Trinity Church.
You rarely hear any discussion of real estate aside from the occasional asset allocation scheme that calls for a 10% allocation to Real Estate Investment Trusts for diversification purposes.
No one mentions the Morningstar data that shows that since 1972, REITs have outperformed the S&amp;P 500.
The CREM Benchmarking study never comes up either.
That study clarifies that REITs have outperformed private equity in defined benefit pension plans over the last 25 years.
The instant experts are too busy trying to predict which company will dominate nuclear energy when the new plants are finally turned on and can produce cash flow in future years. They never mention the REITs throwing off growing streams of cash right now.
Wall Street and the Instant Experts only care about what is hot now.
You will hear little mention of portfolios of almost fully leased properties that pay investors a huge amount of cash every quarter.
Broadstone Net Lease (Ticker: BNL) is a great example of a collection of properties producing regular cash streams that are being distributed to shareholders as dividends.
Broadstone owns industrial, warehouse, and retail properties across the United States.
The average lease has 11 years to run, and all leases have a 2% escalation clause that helps protect cash flows from inflation.
Its tenants include Nestlé, Carvana, Tractor Supply, and other well-known companies with excellent credit profiles.
30% of its properties are manufacturing facilities making everything from food products to semiconductors.
It has both normal and cold storage warehouse facilities, and it will see increased demand from the remaking of the global supply chain and the continued rise of e-commerce.
All of the properties are net lease properties, which means that tenants pay all maintenance, insurance, and taxes in addition to rent.
Broadstone has an excellent balance sheet, with BBB credit ratings and about twice as much equity as long-term debt.
The REIT maintains plenty of liquidity, so it can withstand all economic turmoil and take advantage of opportunities created by disruptions.
This is not the most exciting story you will hear this year.
It may be the most consistent and profitable over the next several years. The current yield on the shares is about 7.3%, and the shares trade at a fairly steep discount to my internal calculation of net asset value.
None of the chattering experts on the internet will be excited about a collection of retailers we all drive by and use every day of our lives that is throwing off cash, either.
Alpine Income Property Trust (Ticker: PINE) is a real estate investment trust (REIT) specializing in owning and managing high-quality, single-tenant retail and office properties. Based in Florida, the company strategically focuses on acquiring net lease assets in thriving markets across the United States.
Alpine emphasizes properties leased to strong, creditworthy tenants, often with long-term, triple-net lease agreements that shift maintenance, taxes, and insurance costs to the tenant.
Its tenants include companies like Walmart (Ticker: WMT), Dollar General (Ticker: DG), 7-Eleven, Bass Pro Shops, Best Buy (Ticker: BBY), and CVS (Ticker: CVS).
Alpine&#8217;s properties are also leased on a triple-net basis, so most of the cash collected goes back to shareholders as a dividend.
The yield is currently about 6.6%, and the portfolio of properties is, in my calculation, worth much more than the current price of the shares.
When it comes to investing, boring companies that generate a lot of cash have a better-than-average chance of being wildly profitable investments for patient, aggressive investors.
In the case of REITs, that has been the case for more than five decades.

Under the Radar: Undervalued Assets Wall Street Isn't Talking About

On Jan. 6, 2025, Justin Trudeau's announcement that he will step down as Prime Minister once a new liberal leader is chosen sent shock waves through Canadian politics. But one person who likely isn't surprised is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/01/42768256/to-survive-no-matter-what-kevin-oleary-says-you-need-5m-in-the-bank-you-can-take-care-of-a-lot-of-people">Kevin O'Leary</a>.
The Shark Tank star and outspoken Canadian business owner just days ago didn't hold back when critiquing Trudeau's leadership. Speaking in an interview with BNN Bloomberg, O'Leary slammed Trudeau's handling of the economy and leadership style, even going so far as to say, "I mean no disrespect, but I wouldn't let them run a bodega. They don't know what they're doing."
Don't Miss:

</ul>
O'Leary's fiery remarks targeted Trudeau and Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland, whose policies he called disastrous for Canada's economic competitiveness. "I want to respect Freeland because she is the finance minister. But I don't know why she's the finance minister. She has no experience at this. She's never even run a bank," he said, adding, "Bad managers do a lot of damage. And she is a very bad, underqualified manager."
"Start From Scratch"
O'Leary <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/12/42271850/kevin-oleary-credits-random-decisions-for-biggest-shark-tank-success-stories">didn't just criticize – </a>he called for a total reboot of Canada's leadership. In a LinkedIn post six months ago, he wrote: "I wouldn't let them run a candy store. They have NO idea what they're doing! This place desperately needs new leadership that understands the potential of the country. I'd like to see a big spatula scrape everybody out of there and start from scratch. Reboot the country. CANADA 2.0!"
In a CBC News December 2024 interview, he also said that Canada's economy was in "free fall" due to poor policy decisions, particularly around natural resources. "I can't help but blame Justin Trudeau for that for the last decade. He's a weak manager. In my opinion, he's a very successful politician but a very, very weak manager," said O'Leary.

The Capital Gains Tax Controversy
One specific policy that drew O'Leary's ire was the liberals' recent capital gains tax hike. This hike forces Canadians earning more than $250,000 in capital gains annually to pay taxes on two-thirds of their profits, up from half. O'Leary called the move a mistake that will harm Canada's global competitiveness.
"When you mess around with corporate tax rates, corporations are not people. They can move. Structures can move. And they will. And they'll contort themselves if all of a sudden, they find a path of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42734807/china-is-not-a-developing-nation-says-kevin-oleary-claims-theyre-at-an-economic-war-with-us">least resistance somewhere else</a>," O'Leary said. He warned that Canada is heading toward the bottom of G20 tax competitiveness rankings, adding, "It's just shameful. It's a real problem."

What's Next for Canada?
Trudeau's resignation comes amid growing pressure from critics like O'Leary, who have long questioned his economic record. "Canada, if you look at resources per capita, is one of the richest countries on earth run by complete idiots," O'Leary said bluntly earlier this year.
Whether or not Trudeau's exit will bring the change O'Leary and others are calling for remains to be seen. For now, it's clear that the conversation around Canada's economy and leadership has reached a boiling point.
