Donald Trump, dubbed the "<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/which-crypto-is-up-because-of-trumps-inauguration">crypto president</a>," has completed 100 days in office since taking the oath on Jan. 20. Delivering on the pre-election promise, he established a Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) Strategic Reserve, but it has not been enough to reverse the apex cryptocurrency&#8217;s decline throughout his tenure. 
What happened: Bitcoin <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43079668/bitcoin-hits-record-109000-ahead-of-trumps-inauguration-sparks-market-rally">recorded </a>its all-time high of $109,000 ahead of Trump's presidential inauguration, owing to high expectations from his administration.
Trump had promised to create a national Bitcoin reserve during the campaign trail, and his subsequent victory fueled a bullish frenzy for the coin, propelling it beyond $100,000 for the first time in history.
Trump kept his promise and passed an executive order creating a reserve that will be funded with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44183572/trump-establishes-strategic-bitcoin-reserve-funded-by-forfeited-assets-i-made-the-promise">Bitcoin owned by the federal government</a>, obtained through criminal or civil asset forfeiture proceedings.
However, even a strong catalyst like this hasn't come to the rescue of the leading digital asset, which has fallen more than 13% during Trump 2.0

The slump has been primarily driven by Trump's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/45084679/q1-gdp-recession-bets-spike-as-trump-tariffs-risk-fuel-2020-style-economic-shock">sweeping tariff measures</a> against key trading partners, which have sparked macroeconomic uncertainty and recession fears.
Notably, Bitcoin's price hit a bottom of $76,000 earlier this month and has since rebounded sharply, although it remains 13% below its peak.
On the other hand, when former President Joe Biden began his tenure on Jan. 30, 2021, Bitcoin was trading around $36,000. Over the next 100 days, it rose to $57,750.18, reflecting a 60% surge. During this time, it also clocked an all-time high of $64,800.
Notably, the Federal Reserve maintained near-zero interest rates during this time, potentially encouraging investments in Bitcoin.
Price Action: At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $94,817.49, having barely moved in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Bitcoin Falls 13% In First 100 Days Of 'Crypto President' Trump — How Did It Perform Under Biden?

United Parcel Service Inc.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>) has disclosed its intentions to lay off 20,000 employees and cease operations in 73 facilities. This decision is attributed to a considerable decline in deliveries for&nbsp;Amazon.com Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>), its primary client, and the ongoing repercussions of President Donald Trump&#8216;s tariffs.
What Happened:&nbsp;&nbsp;UPS is planning to cut 20,000 jobs and shut down 73 facilities. This move is a consequence&nbsp;of a planned reduction in&nbsp;deliveries for Amazon and the continued impact of President Trump&#8217;s tariffs. The job cuts are part of an extensive operational restructuring aimed at cost-cutting and enhancing efficiency. An Amazon spokesperson stated, &#8220;Due&nbsp;to their operational needs, UPS&nbsp;requested a reduction in volume&nbsp;and we certainly respect their&nbsp;decision,&#8221; reported Reuters.
Sean O&#8217;Brien, general president of the Teamsters, said that UPS is contractually obligated to create 30,000 jobs as part of its current national master agreement. He warned that any violation of this agreement or attempts to compromise the hard-earned jobs of Teamsters would result in a severe backlash.
In response, UPS assured its commitment to the contract. The company currently has 406,000 employees in the U.S., with more than 75% represented by unions.

Why It Matters:&nbsp;The announcement of job cuts and facility closures comes on the heels of UPS&#8217;s Q1 2025 results, which were a mixed bag. The company reported a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/45065830/ups-delivers-mixed-bag-q1-supply-chain-weakness-offset-by-strong-domestic-and-international-growth">consolidated revenue</a> decline of 0.7% year-over-year to $21.546 billion, beating the consensus of $21.05 billion. 
The adjusted EPS was $1.49, up 4.3% YoY, above the consensus of $1.38. Despite the better-than-expected results, the company is evidently grappling with the impact of reduced Amazon deliveries and tariffs, leading to this significant operational restructuring.
Earlier this month, President Trump imposed new 145% tariffs on many Chinese goods, escalating trade tensions. While U.S. imports make up less than 2% of UPS's global volume, the China-U.S. route remains highly profitable, accounting for 11% of UPS's international revenue. UPS is seeing increased volume from Europe and Asia, but small businesses reliant on China could be hit hard. UPS also faces risks from Chinese e-commerce giants as the duty-free status ends in May. "In the worst case," a supply shock could follow stated Brian Dykes, EVP and CFO at UPS.
UPS holds a Growth rating of 38.42% and a value rating of 57.32%, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/UPS" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga&#8217;s Proprietary Edge Rankings</a>.

The stock plunged more than 12% over the past month. On Tuesday, it closed 0.37% lower, as per <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>

UPS To Cut 20,000 Jobs, Close Facilities As Amazon Shipments Drop Amid Trump Tariffs

Brian Colello, Morningstar&#8217;s equity strategist, expressed a bearish outlook on Nvidia&#8217;s China business, while maintaining a positive view on its prospects in developed markets.
What Happened: Colello suggested that Huawei&#8217;s competitive threat is a significant obstacle for Nvidia, especially in China. He stated, &#8220;I think it&#8217;s pretty much game over for Nvidia in China.&#8221; Colello, while speaking to Yahoo Finance pointed out that U.S. restrictions, including the ban on Nvidia&#8217;s H20 chip, have hindered Nvidia&#8217;s ability to sell high-performance chips in China.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"> 
<div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<iframe loading="lazy" title="Why it's ‘game over for Nvidia in China'" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/8j_wFSLLq68?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</div>
</figure>
Nvidia has reportedly recorded a $5.5 billion write-off tied to its China business, with further details expected in its earnings report later in May. Colello believes Nvidia's operations in China have steadily deteriorated, calling the H20 ban "the final straw&#8221; of Nvidia being able to sell anything halfway decent into China. Colello also expects Huawei&#8217;s products to be higher quality than Nvidia&#8217;s H20 chips.  
While Nvidia faces challenges in China, Colello remains optimistic about the company&#8217;s short-term prospects in developed markets like Europe and the U.S., highlighting strong demand from hyperscalers like Google (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>) and Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>). He is confident that U.S. companies will not slowdown their AI investments even if there is a potential recession in the future.

Why It Matters: Huawei has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/45033025/nvidia-faces-new-challenge-as-huawei-tests-powerful-ascend-910d-ai-chip-amid-us-sanctions-aiming-to-disrupt-high-end-market-report">begun testing </a>its new AI chip, the Ascend 910D, which is designed to rival Nvidia&#8217;s flagship processors. This move comes even as U.S. sanctions continue to stifle China's semiconductor ambitions.
Furthermore, the Trump administration is reportedly considering significant changes to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45090935/trump-administration-targets-biden-era-ai-chip-curbs-could-scrap-country-tiers-and-tighten-access-to-nvidias-h100-chips-report">Biden-era restrictions</a> on AI chip exports. These changes could further tighten access to Nvidia&#8217;s H100 chips.
These developments could potentially impact Nvidia&#8217;s market position in China and its overall growth. While Huawei's current offerings don't yet signal Chinese superiority in AI, Colello noted that China's rapid progress—exemplified by Huawei and models like DeepSeek—raises concerns about its ability to catch up faster than anticipated. However, strategist Colello remains confident in U.S. tech dominance with Nvidia continuing to lead in innovation. 
Colello also pointed to projects like Stargate to highlight the significant investment opportunities in U.S. AI infrastructure. He named Nvidia as one of Morningstar's top picks, emphasizing its limited vulnerability to new tariffs and its dominant position in the AI sector.
Benzinga's Edge Rankings highlight strong momentum and growth rankings for Nvidia in the 64th and 95th percentiles, respectively.

Dow Surges 300 Points Amid Trade Deal Hopes: Greed Index Remains In 'Fear' Zone

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is ramping up the production of its Semi Truck as the company reportedly added over 1,000 Workers to its Nevada Giga factory.
What Happened: Elon Musk's EV giant recently brought in new workers for tours and training at the Gigafactory in Nevada, which was recently updated with a dedicated section for Semi production, Business Insider<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/tesla-ramps-up-hiring-for-semi-truck-2025-4"> reported</a> on Tuesday.
Previously, Tesla had less than 100 workers assigned to the Semi division, including the primary production facility in California, the report suggests.
The Semi boasts a 500-mile range on a single charge and can be charged to recover over 70% of the 500-mile range in 30 minutes using one of the dedicated Semi chargers, according to Tesla.
Tesla did not immediately respond to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> request for comment. 
Why It Matters: The report comes in as Tesla recently shared an update on its Semi production. Dan Priestley, the head of the company's Semi program, shared that Tesla intends <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/04/45060435/teslas-first-batch-of-semi-trucks-to-roll-out-from-nevada-plant-by-late-2025-despite-disruption-from-trumps-145-tariffs">to start production</a> at the Nevada facility by the end of the year.
"First units are set to be on the line by the end of this year, and we'll be ramping the factory throughout 2026," Priestley said.
However, Musk's plans <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44831422/donald-trumps-145-tariffs-on-china-could-disrupt-teslas-cybercab-semi-production-report">could be disrupted</a> by Donald Trump's ongoing trade war with China, as the U.S. levies 145% tariffs on Chinese goods, which could also disrupt the company's Cybercab production.
Tesla has already <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38936949/tesla-semi-fleet-grows-as-pepsico-takes-delivery-of-another-50-ev-trucks">delivered over 50 Semi Trucks</a> to PepsiCo Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PEP#NASDAQ">PEP</a>) in 2024, and this production boost could help the company continue the delivery of its promised Semis to PepsiCo.

As market volatility rises amid tariff concerns and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44348164/why-millions-of-americans-are-tapping-their-401k-savings-early">retirement account withdrawals hit record highs</a>, Jim Cramer advocates for greater political consideration of investor interests, challenging the notion that stock market participants are exclusively wealthy elites.
What Happened: CNBC&#8217;s &#8220;Mad Money&#8221; host Cramer <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/04/29/jim-cramer-politicians-shouldnt-forget-shareholders-are-a-constituency.html?ref=biztoc.com">said</a> on Tuesday that politicians should acknowledge and respect investors&#8217; interests, emphasizing that &#8220;shareholders are a constituency&#8221; that deserves representation. 
&#8220;We should be considered. It&#8217;s not just arrogant rich people who own stocks. In fact, the mega-rich love to come on the air and tell you the stock market is too dangerous,&#8221; Cramer stated during his broadcast.
Cramer criticized both major political parties for failing to champion investors, noting that while President Donald Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/45060579/nvidia-johnson-johnson-hyundai-toyota-softbank-ceos-to-join-trump-at-white-house-as-he-touts-investment-surge-in-first-100-days-report">invited CEOs to the White House</a>, he also imposed significant tariffs on their goods. He suggested former President Joe Biden was even more unwelcoming to big business during his administration.
Cramer&#8217;s comments come as the S&amp;P 500, tracked by SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), has fallen 5.24% year-to-date, closing at 5,560 on Tuesday amid escalating trade tensions with China following Trump&#8217;s tariff announcement. Meanwhile, the tech-heavy Nasdaq-100, tracked by Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), is down 6.82%, closing at 19,544.

Why It Matters: Cramer&#8217;s advocacy for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/23/12/36295790/jim-cramer-slams-ftc-chair-lina-khans-policies-for-hampering-investor-returns-one-w?utm_source=chatgpt.com">shareholder interests follows his recent criticism</a> of former Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan&#8216;s opposition to mergers and acquisitions, which he described as &#8220;a one-woman wrecking crew for your stock portfolio&#8221; that primarily benefits &#8220;the largest, wealthiest companies&#8221; who can afford litigation costs.
Meanwhile, Vanguard Group data shows a record 4.8% of 401(k) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44348164/why-millions-of-americans-are-tapping-their-401k-savings-early">account holders took hardship withdrawals in 2023</a>, more than double pre-pandemic rates, despite average balances increasing by 10% to a record $148,153. 
Financial author Ramit Sethi warns Trump's proposed tariffs could cost median U.S. households over $2,500 a year, hitting lower-income Americans hardest. He urges calm in markets but <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44852424/you-could-literally-cost-yourself-millions-finance-expert-warns-against-panic-decision-on-trump-tariffs">recommends a 12-month emergency fund</a>—advice he's only given during the COVID-19 crisis
