The <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/media/25/02/43838655/iphone-17-pro-may-finally-get-wireless-reverse-charging-apple-reportedly-testing-power-sharing-with-airpods-apple-watch-and-more">iPhone 17 series</a>, the latest smartphone line-up from Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), is reportedly facing significant stock shortages, and CEO Tim Cook is worried about it.
What Happened: The scarcity of Low CTE fiberglass cloth is reportedly causing a strain on the stock of the iPhone 17 series. This material is a vital component in the manufacturing of SoC chips, RF packaging substrates, camera modules, and batteries, as per a <a href="https://wallstreetcn-com.translate.goog/articles/3745568?_x_tr_sl=auto&amp;_x_tr_tl=en&amp;_x_tr_hl=en&amp;_x_tr_pto=wapp">report</a> by Wall Street News.
The low CTE fiberglass cloth plays a crucial role in smartphones, especially in core electronic components that demand high precision and efficient heat dissipation. It helps align the thermal expansion properties of the chip and the substrate, minimizing mechanical stress from temperature fluctuations and enhancing the device's stability and longevity.
A supply chain source cited by Wall Street News revealed that Cook, Apple&#8217;s CEO, is pushing suppliers daily to rectify the shortage. The source stated, &#8220;Cook is so anxious that he is pushing suppliers every day.&#8221;
As per MacRumors, the <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/tech/25/02/43802471/apples-leaked-renders-show-iphone-17-air-and-pro-getting-unique-camera-islands-but-base-models-looks-may-disappoint-some">iPhone 17</a> models are expected to be launched in September.
Apple did not immediately respond to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> request for comment.

Why It Matters: The<a href="https://in.benzinga.com/tech/25/03/44348175/apples-iphone-17-air-to-usher-in-new-era-of-slimmer-portless-models"> iPhone 17 </a>series represents more than just another flagship release for Apple—it marks the beginning of a new chapter for the brand. With a revamped design and noticeably larger camera islands on the Pro models, reminiscent of the upcoming Google Pixel 9, the lineup brings both style and innovation. Apple is also set to debut a new addition: the iPhone 17 Air, a sleeker, slimmer model aimed at users who value aesthetics.
Apple analyst Ming Chi Kuo stated in early March that there are three anticipated features of the iPhone 17 Air that could lead to better-than-expected battery life: a high-density battery, Apple's energy-efficient C1 modem, and the absence of an Ultra Wide camera, which allows for extra internal space to accommodate a larger battery, reported MacRumors. 
However, the limited availability of low-CTE fiberglass isn't Apple's only challenge. The company is also concerned about the possible effects of tariffs. While Apple currently enjoys a temporary exemption, relocating production from China in time to sidestep these tariffs appears improbable. Previously, Tim Cook had mentioned that he prefers iPhone manufacturing in China due to the availability of highly skilled labor. 
Even if manufacturing is shifted elsewhere, other countries would still be subject to tariffs, though potentially at lower rates. As a result, Apple may have to either absorb the additional costs or raise the prices of its phones.

The shares of First Solar Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FSLR#NASDAQ">FSLR</a>) jumped 7.18% to $122.45 during the pre-market session on Tuesday after the U.S. finalized plans to impose steep tariffs on most solar cells imported from Southeast Asia on Monday.
What Happened: Firms within the American Alliance for Solar Manufacturing Trade Committee have accused major Chinese solar panel manufacturers with factories in Malaysia, Cambodia, Thailand, and Vietnam of selling panels below production cost and benefiting from unfair subsidies, making American products uncompetitive, Reuters reported on Monday.
The case was initiated last year by Korea&#8217;s&nbsp;Hanwha Qcells, Arizona-based First Solar Inc., and several smaller producers.
The tariffs finalized on Monday vary significantly based on the company and country, with products from Cambodia facing duties exceeding 3,500% as a result of non-cooperation with the U.S. investigation. 
Jinko Solar&#8216;s Malaysian products were subject to some of the lowest combined anti-dumping and countervailing duties at 41.56%, while competing Trina Solar's Thai products were hit with steep tariffs of 375.19%.
To finalize the tariffs, the International Trade Commission must vote in June to determine if the industry was significantly harmed by the unfairly priced and subsidized imports.

Why It Matters: China, which dominates 90% of the solar supply chain, has established factories across Southeast Asia to bypass U.S. tariffs. The new duties mark another blow as the U.S. ramps up its crackdown on Chinese imports.
In November, the U.S. Department of Commerce announced tariffs between 21% and 271% for Chinese solar panels sold through subsidiaries in Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand and Malaysia. During the 2024 election, President Donald Trump pledged to impose tariffs on specific Chinese imports, including solar panels. 
Against this backdrop, Piper Sandler analyst Kashy Harrison stated in January that First Solar could <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/01/42779225/this-domestic-solar-stock-fslr-could-shine-in-your-portfolio-if-president-elect-donald-trump-imposes-tariffs-on-chinese-solar-panels">gain significantly</a> from this development.
However, critics, including the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA), argue that the proposed tariffs could hurt U.S. solar manufacturers by increasing the cost of imported cells used in panel assembly at American factories which have been expanding since the clean energy manufacturing subsidy was introduced in 2022.
First Solar holds a Growth rating of 96.08% and a quality rating of 89.80%, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/FSLR" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga&#8217;s Proprietary Edge Rankings</a>.

First Solar Stock Surges Over 7% In Pre-Market As US Sets Up To 3,500% Tariffs On Chinese-Owned Southeast Asian Solar Cells

Roche Holdings AG (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RHHBY#OTC">RHHBY</a>) has revealed a $50 billion investment plan centering on manufacturing and research in the U.S., indicating a strategic change as<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44847222/trump-administration-opens-probe-into-foreign-drug-imports-eyes-tariffs-under-national-security-law"> potential drug tariffs loom</a>.
What Happened: The Swiss pharmaceutical giant will establish new and expanded facilities across Indiana, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, and California over the next five years.
The move entails crucial R&amp;D hubs, new production sites for weight-loss and gene therapies, and extended diagnostic operations. The plan is likely to create over 12,000 jobs, including thousands in facility staffing and construction.

Why It Matters: The announcement was made as the pharmaceutical sector readies itself for possible tariffs on imported medicines. While drugs have so far been exempted, President Trump recently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44724763/pharma-industry-faces-jitters-as-trump-hints-at-historic-tariffs-bofa-outlines-probable-timeline">warned </a>that new tariffs on pharmaceuticals are coming shortly.
Roche's CEO Thomas Schinecker said the investment shows the company's "long-standing commitment" to U.S.-based innovation and production, according to the Wall Street Journal.
Once the plan is executed, Roche expects to export more medicines from the U.S. than it imports.
Earlier this month, President Trump proposed a &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44708204/trump-hints-at-major-tariff-on-imported-pharmaceuticals-us-pharma-stocks-tumble-in-wednesday-pre-market">major tariff</a>&#8221; on foreign pharmaceuticals, indicating that U.S. dependence on imports poses national security risks. The U.S. Department of Commerce is investigating the effect of these imports on the domestic supply chain, targeting essential medicines and public health readiness.

Insights From Analysts:
Senior economist Jeremy Siegel stated in his weekly WisdomTree note that &#8220;Markets show signs of tension.&#8221;
According to him, tariffs may drive a temporary bump in spending as firms and households rush to front-load purchases, but that demand is borrowed from future quarters. That's not sustainable; it's a warning sign. And once the real price increases filter through to consumer goods, public sentiment will shift quickly.
&#8220;Earnings are starting to reflect this uncertainty, though much of Wall Street's consensus remains stale, still anchored in pre-tariff forecasts. CEOs should be updating their models now to reflect multiple trade scenarios, especially those most exposed to China or to consumer imports.&#8221;
Siegel also highlighted that Powell will be blamed for any issues arising from Trump&#8217;s policy decisions.
&#8220;I expect Trump to increasingly blame the ‘too slow Powell' for any downsides that materialize from Trump's policies. Powell may be technically secure in his position, but that doesn't mean he's insulated from blame.&#8221;
Lastly, he advised that &#8220;For income, I continue to favor dividend-paying equities and international exposure over long-duration bonds.&#8221;
Fundstrat&#8217;s Tom Lee urged Scott Bessent and Howard Lutnick to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44915795/tom-lee-urges-bessent-and-lutnick-to-put-points-on-the-board-for-a-positive-policy-shock-to-the-stock-market">deliver swift trade deals</a>, aiming for a positive market &#8220;policy shock.&#8221;
Echoing Charles Gasparino&#8217;s call for the White House to &#8220;put points on the board,&#8221; which is a sales jargon for quick action during a slump, Lee stated that the market is sending this same message to Bessent, Lutnick, and the Trump&#8217;s trade team.
"They got to cut some deals and let the world know, and they have to do so soon because this could get even uglier," Gasparino's post added.

Allot Launches New OffNetSecure Solution To Protect Telecom Customers Against Cyberthreats

Jim&nbsp;Simons, a mathematician turned investor with remarkable success, once mentioned to a group of students that the only rule he&#8217;s stood by while investing is not letting gut instinct interfere with his math. 
What Happened: In a newly resurfaced 2014 talk at San&nbsp;Francisco State University, the Renaissance&nbsp;Technologies founder explained the hedge fund's cardinal rule: "We never override the computer. No one ever comes in any day and says the computer wants to do this and that's crazy and we shouldn't do it&nbsp;…&nbsp;You just stick with it, and it's worked."
The comment offers a rare window into the firm behind the Medallion Fund, whose returns, roughly 66&nbsp;percent a year before fees between 1988 and 2018, have made Simons a legend on Wall Street. Renaissance builds thousands of predictive signals from decades of market data, then lets <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-automated-trading-software">algorithms trade automatically</a> across stocks, futures and currencies. 
Human second‑guessing, Simons said, would break the historical testing that underpins every line of code: "You can't study the past and wonder whether the boss was gonna come in and change his mind."

Quant funds routinely tweak models, but outright vetoes risk injecting bias and erasing the statistical edge. Simons, a former National Security Agency code‑breaker and Stony&nbsp;Brook University math chair, argued that discipline mattered more than any single signal. "The only rule is you never hit the override button," he told students, calling it the bedrock of Renaissance's culture.
What To Know: Mathematician‑turned‑hedge‑fund legend, Simons, was born in Newton, Massachusetts, in 1938, earned a Ph.D. from Berkeley, co‑created Chern‑Simons theory, chaired Stony Brook's math department, and later founded <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/renaissance-technologies">Renaissance Technologies</a>, whose model‑driven trades rewrote Wall Street records.
With his wife Marilyn, Simons launched the Simons Foundation in&nbsp;1994, channeling billions to math, basic science, and autism research. The billionaire philanthropist <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38768433/jim-simons-groundbreaking-quantitative-hedge-fund-founder-who-provided-exceptional-returns-for-inves">died in New&nbsp;York</a> at&nbsp;86, leaving three children, five grandchildren, and a great‑grandchild.

Jim Simons Stood By One Quant Investing Rule That Helped Him Earn 66% Returns For 30 Years, 'You Just Stick With It, And It Worked'

Harvard University has filed a lawsuit against the Donald Trump administration in a federal court, challenging a threat to cut billions in research funding unless the school adheres to a range of controversial demands.
The lawsuit is an escalation in the ongoing conflicts between elite universities and federal authorities.
What Happened: Filed in Massachusetts, the suit resists against government attempts to audit faculty, surveil international students, and impose ideological oversight.
Harvard President Alan Garber labeled it as a move to enforce "unprecedented and improper control" over academic decisions. The funding freeze, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44804541/trump-administration-halts-2-2-billion-in-harvard-grants-after-university-says-dont-dictate-what-we-can-teach-or-who-we-admit">amounting to $2.2 billion</a>, has already interrupted crucial research projects, including studies on tuberculosis and A.L.S., according to <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/21/us/harvard-lawsuit-trump-administration.html">a</a> New York Times report.
Last week, the Trump Administration also asked the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44855064/trump-administration-asks-irs-to-revoke-harvards-tax-exempt-status-after-president-accuses-ivy-league-university-of-pushing-sickness">take away Harvard University's tax-exempt</a> status.
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/25/04/44893684/bill-gates-harvard-professor-thought-what-a-waste-when-he-left-academia-but-that-small-company-he-founded-changed-the-world">Bill Gates&#8217; Harvard Professor Thought, &#8216;What A Waste&#8217; When He Left Academia, But That &#8216;Small Company&#8217; He Founded Changed The World</a>
Why It Matters: The administration justifies its decisions as part of a larger clampdown on campus "antisemitism" but Harvard views the measures as gross violations of constitutional rights and lacking in legal basis. "The university will not surrender its independence," Garber told the community amid the ongoing crisis.
Prominent figures in higher education are supporting Harvard's challenge. Ted Mitchell, head of the American Council on Education, hailed the lawsuit as a stand against political interference.
With Harvard aiming for a fast-track resolution, the case could have long-term implications for how universities protect their autonomy.

Why Calix Shares Are Trading Higher By 13%; Here Are 20 Stocks Moving Premarket

The Primary School, a tuition-free private institution co-founded by Priscilla Chan, wife of Meta Platforms Inc. founder Mark Zuckerberg, will shut down after the 2025-2026 school year, the organization announced.
What Happened: Founded in 2016, the school aimed to integrate healthcare, education, and family support by bringing together parents, educators, and medical providers to serve underserved communities. The school currently operates two locations in East Palo Alto and East Bay, California.
&#8220;This was a very difficult decision,&#8221; said Jean-Claude Brizard, President of the school&#8217;s board, in a statement. The closure comes despite Chan and Zuckerberg&#8217;s continued investment in education and scientific research through their Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI). The school has not publicly disclosed specific reasons for the closure.
To support the transition, CZI will invest $50 million over the next few years in the affected communities. The investment includes funding for 529 education savings plans for students, transition specialists, and support for families moving to new schools.

Why It Matters: Some students will join the Ravenswood City School District, which has collaborated with The Primary School since its inception. 
The school&#8217;s innovative approach was designed to address systemic challenges facing underserved communities by creating a comprehensive support network for children from infancy through early adolescence. It currently serves over 300 families in East Palo Alto.
While The Primary School is closing, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/08/40411578/meta-ceo-mark-zuckerberg-commissions-statue-of-wife-priscilla-chan-sparks-online-buzz-bring">CZI continues its broader mission</a> through recently announced scientific &#8220;grand challenges&#8221; focused on the artificial intelligence-biology intersection to advance human health, including the development of an AI-based virtual cell model and new inflammation measurement tools.

Mark Zuckerberg's Wife Priscilla Chan's Tuition-Free School To Shutdown, $50 Million Support Pledged For Transition

The &#8216;Mag 7&#8217; or Magnificent 7 stocks, comprising the most influential U.S.-based companies, with a combined market capitalization of $13.6 trillion, have had their worst month and quarter on record, with still a week left to go. 
What Happened: On Monday, Bespoke Investment Group, a New York-based investment advisory company, shared on its X account the 6-month chart of the Roundhill Magnificent Seven ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MAGS#BATS">MAGS</a>), a fund that offers equal weight exposure to the Magnificent 7 stocks.
The first-ever ETF to track the Mag 7, it allocates between 13% to 15% of its assets to each of the seven stocks: Apple Inc., Alphabet Inc., Amazon.com Inc., Meta Platforms Inc., Microsoft Corp., Nvidia Corp., and Tesla Inc.

Bespoke highlights the fund&#8217;s performance this month, especially the chart pattern between 9th April and today. The fund witnessed a steep pullback starting with the tariffs on Liberation Day, followed by a recovery when President Donald Trump announced a 90-day pause to the tariffs.

Why It Matters: When <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44656898/market-mayhem-persists-as-tariffs-spark-turmoil-experts-say-dont-panic">markets began to crumble</a> during the first few weeks of the tariffs, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent was quoted as saying that this selloff &#8220;was more a MAG 7 problem than a MAGA one,&#8221; before calling it a <a href="https://benzinga.com/25/04/44652055/its-more-a-mag-seven-problem-than-a-maga-one-treasury-secretary-says-as-wall-street-meltdowns">reassessment of U.S. tech stock</a> valuations following China&#8217;s Deepseek AI breakthrough. 
Senior tech analyst Dan Ives of Wedbush Securities has repeatedly <a href="http://benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/04/44623604/us-stock-likely-to-open-lower-following-trumps-tariffs-worse-than-the-worst-case-scenario-says-analyst">called the tariffs</a> &#8220;worse than the worst-case scenario,&#8221; especially for tech stocks like Apple. Following the pause, he added that the decision <a href="https://benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/04/44721874/trumps-tariff-pause-saves-market-from-edge-of-the-cliff-dan-ives-says-biggest-wild-card-still-remains">saved the markets</a> from the &#8220;edge of the cliff,&#8221; while noting that China will still be the biggest &#8220;wild card&#8221; for U.S. tech.

Tariff Pause Fizzles: 'Mag 7' Stocks Slide Back To Pre-Pause Lows

A memecoin based on Cardinal Secretary of State Pietro Parolin skyrocketed in value Monday, as the key Vatican figure surfaced as a strong contender to succeed the late Pope Francis.
What happened: The Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>)-based token POPE was up 770% in the last 24 hours, running into a market capitalization of $260,930, <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/dexscan/solana/4SY4ets7xtdri5BEucshsLHxJdLWHw6kXbzKoUzEpa3N/">according </a>to CoinMarketCap.
Similarly, a memecoin themed on Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle, another high-ranking clergy of the Catholic Church, shot up to 1012% in the last 24 hours.
Note that the two tokens operated at a thin liquidity and could only be traded on Raydium, a Solana-based decentralized exchange. Furthermore, CoinMarketCap released a disclaimer stating that the memecoins were yet to be verified and advised traders to DYOR.

Why It Matters: The rally coincided with growing speculation over who would take the position of the global head of the Catholic Church, which was left vacant <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44892537/pope-francis-first-south-american-pontiff-and-peoples-pope-dies-at-88">after Pope Francis died at the age of 88</a>.
Cryptocurrency bettors placed the highest odds of 34% in favor of Cardinal Parolin, followed by 23% for Cardinal Tagle, <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/who-will-be-the-next-pope">according </a>to Polymarket. More than $3 million has already been wagered on the outcome.
Moreover, the odds that a European would be the next Pope were 65%, according to a separate betting <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/what-continent-will-next-pope-be-from?tid=1745311546456">contract</a>, while the chances of an Asian becoming the supreme pontiff were 22%.
Notably, Cardinal Parolin is from Italy, while Cardinal Tagle is a Filipino.
Benzinga Note: Investing in meme coins is highly speculative and involves significant risk. Meme coins often lack intrinsic value and are driven by market sentiment, social media trends, and speculative trading.
