On Monday, Nvidia Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>)&nbsp;chief&nbsp;Jensen Huang&nbsp;met with Japanese Prime Minister&nbsp;Shigeru Ishiba&nbsp;to canvass more electricity to power <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/nvidia" rel="noreferrer noopener">artificial intelligence&#8217;s needs</a>.
Huang&nbsp;and Ishiba discussed how Japan is particularly positioned well to develop AI, given its leadership in robotics and industrial manufacturing. They acknowledged the importance of electric energy generation and new infrastructure to power their AI ambitions, Bloomberg reported, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-04-21/nvidia-ceo-lobbies-japan-for-more-power-data-centers-to-fuel-ai?srnd=phx-technology&amp;sref=TBDibEcD" rel="noreferrer noopener">citing</a> Huang.

However, Huang also said that generating and creating intelligence will need energy.
Huang visited Beijing last week. Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald Trump shared plans to prohibit Nvidia from selling H20 AI chip to China amid intensifying geopolitical tensions spurred by U.S. blacklisting of Chinese companies like Huawei Technologies, semiconductor sanctions restricting China&#8217;s access to advanced semiconductor technologies, and a tariff war between the countries.
Last week, Nvidia warned of a $5.5 billion&nbsp;writedown&nbsp;from the newest U.S. chip embargo.

Fast-food chain Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMG#NYSE">CMG</a>) announced Monday that it is preparing its <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/n44894998/chipotle-signs-development-agreement-with-alsea-to-open-restaurants-in-mexico-for-the-first-time" rel="noreferrer noopener">first foray into the Mexican market</a> through a newly signed partnership with Latin American restaurant operator Alsea.
The move is expected to result in the opening of Chipotle&#8217;s inaugural restaurant in Mexico by early 2026, signaling a major step in the fast-casual chain&#8217;s international expansion.
Alsea, which operates major dining brands across Latin America and Europe, will collaborate with Chipotle on launching the brand.

Following this initial opening, the two companies plan to assess further growth potential in additional Latin American markets.
&#8220;We are confident that our responsibly sourced, classically-cooked real food will resonate with guests in&nbsp;Mexico,&#8221; said&nbsp;Chief Business Development Officer at Chipotle, Nate Lawton.
&#8220;The country&#8217;s familiarity with our ingredients and affinity for fresh food make it an attractive growth market for our company.&#8221;
Chipotle&#8217;s first international development agreement was made in 2023, with Alshaya Group, which has since brought five Chipotle locations to the Middle East, three in Kuwait and two in the UAE.
Globally, Chipotle already operates more than 3,700 outlets, including dozens of sites in Canada, the UK, France, and Germany.
The company aims to launch between 315 and 345 new restaurants in 2025 alone. Its long-term vision includes establishing up to 7,000 locations across the U.S. and Canada.

Wall Street was gripped by a rare double sell-off Monday morning as U.S. stock futures and the dollar sank in tandem amid mounting fears that President Donald Trump could move to oust Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell well before his term expires in May 2026.
The U.S. dollar index, tracked by the Invesco DB USD Index Bullish Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UUP#NYSE">UUP</a>), fell 1.3% to 98.2, its lowest level since April 2022.
Meanwhile, futures tied to the S&amp;P 500 index dropped 1.1% by 8:15 a.m. ET, with contracts on the Nasdaq 100 down 1.6%, reflecting the broad-based sell-off in U.S. assets.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Markets Fear Fed Interference</h2>
Trump had already laid the groundwork for market anxiety last week with a Truth Social post attacking Powell's leadership. "Jerome Powell is always too late and wrong. His termination cannot come fast enough."
Trump criticized Powell for not cutting interest rates despite falling oil prices and easing inflation concerns.
He then escalated the rhetoric during a public appearance with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni on Thursday. "If I want him out, he&#8217;ll be out of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44875406/hell-be-out-if-i-ask-him-can-trumps-threat-to-oust-powell-shake-the-fed">there real fast. Believe me."</a>
National Economic Council director Kevin Hassett added fuel to the fire on Good Friday, when markets were closed for the Easter holiday, by confirming that the Trump administration is "considering" firing Powell.
"If Powell is removed from his position at the Fed, the impact on global markets and the USD could be severe," said Alejandro Cuadrado, strategist at BBVA, in a note Monday. 
"Independence and credibility are key assets for the Fed and the US. If investors fear the US administration will control the central bank, the impact on confidence would be unprecedented."
The market response is already visible in futures and foreign exchange flows. The synchronized sell-off in both U.S. equities and the dollar is particularly alarming for global investors, who often rely on the dollar as a safe-haven hedge during periods of equity market stress.
According to CFTC-regulated Kalshi, there is a 23% chance Powell could be ousted before the end of his mandate. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Goldman Sachs Flips On The Dollar</h3>
Major investment banks have already begun downgrading their stance on U.S. assets. Goldman Sachs's Kamakshya Trivedi said the firm reversed its bullish dollar outlook weeks ago, citing rising economic policy risks.
"We flipped our Dollar view a few weeks ago, based in large part on tariffs and other US policy shifts raising uncertainty and impairing sentiment in the US," Trivedi said. "We expect that shift will lead to less exceptional outcomes for US assets."
CFTC data released Friday backs that sentiment, showing continued outflows from dollar positions and growing bearish bets by hedge funds and institutional investors.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Long-Term Consequences Could Be Inflationary</h3>
Intervention in Fed policymaking doesn't just shake short-term confidence, it could have lasting inflationary effects. 
Shaun Osborne, chief foreign exchange strategist at Scotiabank, said historical data shows a strong link between central bank independence and inflation stability.
"Political interference in Fed policy making would erode confidence in the USD and may bolster inflation in the longer run," Osborne said. 
"There is ample literature showing a high correlation between central bank independence and low and stable inflation."
Even if Trump does not formally fire Powell, one potential workaround could involve nominating a "chairman in waiting" who actively comments on monetary policy before taking office, undermining Powell's authority and market credibility.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Contrarians Smell Opportunity Amid Panic</h3>
But not everyone is convinced that the panic will last. Veteran investor Ed Yardeni, president of Yardeni Research, sees signs that the bearishness could be peaking—possibly setting the stage for a countertrend rally.
"We don't recall this ever happening before," Yardeni said, referring to a recent trio of The Economist covers predicting a collapse in the dollar, U.S. markets and the global economy. 
"Contrarians of the world, unite! Markets are always at peak bearishness before the bull," he said.
Yardeni acknowledges the wave of concerns—from Trump's chaotic trade war and foreign policy risks to Chinese deflation and the soaring price of gold—but indicates that the sheer saturation of negativity could signal an oversold environment.
One reason for hope: Beijing's recent signals that it is open to renegotiating trade with the Trump administration. Any progress on that front could ease global trade tensions and help stabilize investor sentiment.
