Concerns about the future of Social Security are prompting more Americans to claim Social Security benefits earlier than planned, even at the risk of collecting smaller monthly checks. Triggered by government cuts to welfare programs and administrative turmoil, retirement decisions are being reshaped across the country.
What Happened: Social Security claims increased to 580,887 in March from 500,527 a year before, according <a href="https://www.wsj.com/personal-finance/retirement/social-security-benefits-early-trump-changes-27ecd4ee">to</a> the Wall Street Journal. 
At a March 28 meeting, officials said that "fearmongering has driven people to claim benefits earlier." Layoffs, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44707473/aprils-social-security-changes-how-new-rules-could-affect-your-check">changing rules, </a>and larger initiatives to cut government spending have <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44775706/when-i-hear-our-politicians-say-were-not-gonna-touch-social-security-i-dont-believe-them-seniors-are-worried-about-doge-changes">generated public anxiety.</a>
President Donald Trump has pledged not to cut Social Security but has moved decisively to reduce federal budgets. "That is leading people to make decisions based on fear," said Kathleen Romig, director of Social Security and disability policy at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities.

Why It Matters: Claiming early leads to lower lifetime payments. Boston University Economist Laurence Kotlikoff pointed out that benefits starting at 70 are "76% higher than at 62." Despite this, many do not want to wait.
"There is no confusion. Trump has been extremely clear: he promised to protect and strengthen Social Security," said White House spokeswoman Liz Huston. She also referred to causes for collecting early, like aging baby boomers and new benefit rules.
A new report from the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities also warns that Trump's immigration policies could deepen Social Security's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/45002141/trumps-deportation-policies-could-worsen-social-securitys-funding-shortfall-by-11-warns-new-report">funding gap by around 11%</a>.

Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) could surge to a new all-time high of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/bitcoin-price-prediction">$120,000 in the second quarter</a>, according to Geoffrey Kendrick, Head of Digital Assets Research at Standard Chartered.
What Happened: In a note sent to Benzinga, Kendrick highlighted that strategic reallocation away from U.S. assets, combined with growing institutional demand, is likely to propel Bitcoin higher in the coming weeks.
Kendrick wrote in the note that, "we expect these supportive factors to push BTC to a fresh all-time high around USD 120,000 in Q2."
Kendrick pointed to several factors underpinning his bullish outlook: U.S. Treasury term premiums are at their highest in over a decade, suggesting heightened demand for non-dollar assets; whale accumulation of Bitcoin has intensified; and recent ETF flows indicate capital is shifting from gold into Bitcoin.

Why t Matters: Time-of-day analysis also shows U.S.-based investors may be selling domestic assets in favor of alternatives like Bitcoin, Kendrick said.
Currently trading near $95,000, Bitcoin has climbed roughly 7x from the cycle lows seen in November 2022.
Standard Chartered maintains its year-end Bitcoin price forecast at $200,000, with Kendrick saying the second quarter breakout could bring that target into sharper focus.
"Timing the upswing is tricky, but we think it is imminent," Kendrick noted, emphasizing that Bitcoin historically tends to rally sharply before entering extended periods of sideways price action.
The bullish forecast comes amid rising volatility in U.S. financial markets, where concerns over inflation, trade tensions and geopolitical uncertainty are pushing investors toward non-traditional stores of value.

Combining PORT-6 and PORT-7 for a More Comprehensive Immunotherapy Approach
In parallel, Portage is advancing the dose escalation of PORT-6, a potent and selective inhibitor of the A2A adenosine receptor. Portage's plan is to ultimately co-administer PORT-6 with PORT-7 in the ongoing ADPORT-601 trial. This will mark the first time two highly selective A2A and A2B antagonists are combined in patients, with the aim of achieving a complete blockade of adenosine-induced immunosuppression in the tumor microenvironment. This innovative approach is designed to fully neutralize adenosine-mediated immune suppression, enhance anti-tumor responses, and broaden the impact of immunotherapy in solid tumors.

In a recent post on Truth Social, President Donald Trump called for American access to two of the world's most strategic waterways, demanding that transit fees for US ships be removed immediately.
What Happened: Trump wrote that &#8220;American ships, both military and commercial, should be allowed to travel, free of charge, through the Panama and Suez canals!&#8221; He stressed that both waterways would &#8220;not exist&#8221; without U.S. intervention and assigned Secretary of State Marco Rubio to &#8220;immediately take care of&#8221; the situation.
In response, the Guardian<a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/27/trump-says-us-ships-should-have-free-use-of-panama-and-suez-canals"> reports</a>, Panamanian President Jose Raul Mulino subtly noted that the Panama Canal Authority (ACP), an independent agency, controls toll policies, saying, "There is no agreement to the contrary."
Earlier this month, U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth <a href="https://www.defense.gov/News/News-Stories/Article/Article/4150935/hegseth-says-us-partnering-with-panama-to-secure-canal-deter-china/">visited Panama City</a> and implied that U.S. warships should have priority and free access through the canal. He also proposed that American troops could return to secure it, but this idea was rejected by Panama.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/28042014/Screenshot-2025-04-28-at-1.48.56%E2%80%AFPM.png" alt="" class="wp-image-890358" /></figure>
The debate over the Suez Canal occurs at a time when its revenues have witnessed a sharp fall. Egypt reported a 60% decrease in canal earnings in 2024, leading to a $7 billion loss, mainly on account of tensions caused by Houthi rebel attacks on shipping in the Red Sea.
Since January 2024, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/23/12/36415651/trade-turmoil-houthi-attacks-in-red-sea-ignite-rerouting-crisis-drive-surging-shipping-stocks">U.S. military has been attacking Houthi positions</a>, and Trump has said that strikes will continue until the rebels are <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-statements/2025/04/text-of-a-letter-from-the-president-to-the-speaker-of-the-house-of-representatives-and-the-president-pro-tempore-of-the-senate/">no longer a threat</a> to U.S. operations in the region.

Why It Matters: Trump's demands could put pressure on relationships with both Panama and Egypt, the two countries that supervise these key trade routes under their sovereign authority. With China and America among the main users of the Panama Canal, any effort to change the fee structure could muddle an already f<a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/04/44682680/blackrocks-panama-canal-ports-deal-to-hit-a-roadblock-amid-audit-findings-and-escalating-us-china-trade-war">raught global shipping landscape</a>. 
Trump's demand for free access through the Panama and Suez canals could be seen as an aggressive attempt to reassert American influence over major maritime chokepoints. According to Will Freeman of the Council of Foreign Relations, a <a href="https://www.americasquarterly.org/article/securing-the-panama-canal-requires-diplomacy/">"lighter touch"</a> is likely to yield better results.

The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), spearheaded by&nbsp;Elon Musk, has reportedly saved $160 billion by eliminating wasteful government spending. However, a recent analysis reveals the amount that DOGE&#8217;s actions will cost taxpayers.
What Happened: The analysis, conducted by the nonpartisan nonprofit agency, Partnership for Public Service (PSP), includes costs related to paid leave for federal employees, rehiring of wrongly dismissed workers, and lost productivity. It reveals that DOGE costs the taxpayers up to $135 billion this fiscal year, CBS News <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/doge-cuts-cost-135-billion-analysis-elon-musk-department-of-government-efficiency/?ref=biztoc.com">reported</a> on Friday. This figure does not include the costs of defending multiple lawsuits against DOGE's actions or the estimated loss in tax collections resulting from IRS staff reductions.
PSP&#8217;s estimate is derived from the $270 billion in annual federal workforce compensation, factoring in the effects of DOGE&#8217;s actions, including costs related to paid leave and declines in productivity.
DOGE has promoted a deferred resignation plan for government workers, enabling many to continue receiving full pay and benefits through September without having to work. After a court ruling, 24,000 government employees who were terminated as part of the reform initiative have been reinstated. Additionally, other agencies have reemployed some workers who had been mistakenly dismissed.
The White House did not immediately respond to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> request for comment. 
Max Stier, president of the PSP stated, &#8220;Ultimately it&#8217;s the public that will end up paying for this.&#8221; ​ Although the DOGE cuts might lead to long-term savings, Stier warned that they could ultimately raise costs for taxpayers by impacting the broader economy, including reductions in funding for health and science research.

Why It Matters:&nbsp;The DOGE initiative has been under scrutiny since its inception. In April 2025, DOGE announced it had uncovered <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44985813/musk-says-he-found-382-million-in-fraudulent-claims-experts-say-thats-already-been-investigated">$382 million in fraudulent </a>unemployment insurance claims, a revelation that was met with skepticism as experts argued these claims had already been investigated.
Later that month, Musk announced he would be reducing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45031652/trumps-ai-and-crypto-czar-david-sacks-says-musk-isnt-out-of-doge-just-rationing-his-time-at-the-department-as-tesla-stock-surges-24-in-the-past-five-days">his time</a> commitment to DOGE to focus on Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), causing the automaker&#8217;s stock to surge nearly 24% in five days. This shift in focus raised questions about the future of DOGE and its ability to deliver on its promises.
Meanwhile, Donald Trump&#8217;s&nbsp;AI and crypto czar,&nbsp;David Sacks clarified that Musk isn&#8217;t completely distancing himself from DOGE, but is instead refining his focus to better manage his numerous commitments.
Despite the criticism, the White House defended DOGE&#8217;s actions, with spokesman Harrison Fields stating that the American public supports the president&#8217;s mission&nbsp;to make government more efficient.

Elon Musk's DOGE Saves $160 Billion But Could Lead To Billions In Hidden Costs For Taxpayers, Warns New Analysis: 'Public...Will End Up Paying For This'

Millennials, many of whom entered adulthood during the 2008 financial crisis, are now sharing hard-earned wisdom with Gen Z on TikTok as President Donald Trump&#8216;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/45033463/as-china-downplays-trump-tariffs-with-5-growth-target-top-economist-warns-of-90-chance-of-a-us-recession-amid-trade-war">economic policies trigger fresh recession concerns</a>.
What Happened: Sasha Whitney, 37, noticed Gen Z users on TikTok expressing feelings that were &#8220;downtrodden, frustrated, very bleak and hopeless about the future&#8221; regarding the economic outlook, <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2025/04/27/business/millennials-gen-z-recession-advice/index.html?ref=biztoc.com">reported</a> CNN. In response, she created videos walking viewers through recession survival tips, including taking any available job, living below means, and eliminating buy-now-pay-later services.
&#8220;If I can give somebody advice, especially younger folks, that&#8217;s what I&#8217;m going to do,&#8221; Whitney said. Having graduated college in 2009 during the Great Recession, she learned financial survival through trial and error, once living on just $20 weekly for groceries.
The anxiety comes as JPMorgan warned this month that the Trump administration&#8217;s escalating global trade war could trigger <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/management/25/04/44717888/jpmorgan-jamie-dimon-warns-recession-now-likely-outcome">recession for both U.S. and global economies</a>. Despite a recent 90-day pause on most reciprocal tariffs, excluding those on Chinese goods, economists warn significant market damage has already occurred.

Why It Matters: According to Glassdoor data, worker confidence has plummeted to record lows. Only 43.4% of entry-level employees feel positive about their employer&#8217;s six-month business outlook – <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44756318/shaken-not-settled-gen-z-workers-lose-confidence-as-economic-clouds-gather">the lowest since tracking began in 2016</a>.
&#8220;Entry level workers have less job security. As they see these <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44756318/shaken-not-settled-gen-z-workers-lose-confidence-as-economic-clouds-gather">economic headwinds on the horizon</a>, there&#8217;s an understandable concern they might be the first ones to lose their jobs in a recession,&#8221; explained Daniel Zhao, Glassdoor&#8217;s lead economist.
Many young adults are already implementing spending cuts. Imani Smith, a 29-year-old in Dallas, now password-shares subscriptions with friends and reduces dining out expenses.
&#8220;I want to (save) and build a practice of doing it before I have to do it out of basic necessity,&#8221; Smith told CNN.
BlackRock Inc. CEO Larry Fink recently highlighted growing generational financial divides. &#8220;It&#8217;s no wonder younger generations are so economically anxious.

Trump's Tariff Policies Fuel Recession Fears As Millennials Coach Gen Z On Financial Survival

Ross Gerber has called out Tesla Inc.'s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/25/04/45032179/tesla-reportedly-developing-a-cheaper-model-y-e80-variant-with-fewer-features-in-china">rumored Model Y E80</a>, which is slated to be a more affordable version of the new Model Y.
What Happened: Quoting a post that shared details about the Model Y E80 on social media platform X, Gerber slammed the rumor on Sunday.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter">

</figure>
"Just 4 wheels and you sit on the battery. Amazing innovation! The Tesla Model C &#8211; rap," he said in his post. The rumored Tesla Model Y E80 is reportedly a toned-down version of the Model Y and will offer fewer features than the standard version.
Noted omissions in the E80 include fabric seats with no ventilation functions, a manual frunk, a 50-55 kWh battery pack, monotone ambient lighting, and will reportedly cost $28,000.
Why It Matters: Gerber's criticism isn't the first time he's locked horns with Elon Musk's EV giant. He had recently said that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44832483/tesla-bull-ross-gerber-says-elon-musk-doesnt-care-about-company-anymore-blames-focus-on-other-ventures-for-ev-makers-slump">Musk "doesn't care"</a> about Tesla and that the billionaire is more focused on other ventures like X AI.
Gerber was also at odds with Tesla's FSD technology. The investor said that Tesla's FSD was like ‘<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44068902/tesla-fsd-like-a-12-year-old-driving-compared-to-waymo-says-ross-gerber-warning-uber-has-got-to-be-hurting">a 12-year-old driving'</a> when compared with the likes of Alphabet Inc.'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>) Waymo, which recently announced it had reached the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45001569/waymo-announces-250000-weekly-paid-rides-across-four-us-cities-sundar-pichai-says-personal-ownership-an-option-in-the-future">250,000 weekly paid rides</a> milestone.&nbsp;
He'd also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44685455/tesla-sales-numbers-suck-says-ross-gerber-he-claims-the-tesla-brand-is-broken-because-of-the-board-that-should-be-removed-for-negligence">criticized the company's poor sales</a> figures in the first quarter. "The BOD is 100% responsible and should be removed for negligence," Gerber had said in a post on X.
