In seeking to track the performance of the STOXX Europe Total Market Index (the Index), the Fund employs a sampling strategy, which means that the Fund is not required to purchase all of the securities represented in the Index. Instead, the Fund may purchase a subset of the securities in the Index in an effort to hold a portfolio of securities with generally the same risk and return characteristics of the Index. The quantity of holdings in the Fund will be based on a number of factors, including asset size of the Fund. Based on its analysis of these factors, SSGA Funds Management, Inc. (SSGA FM or the Adviser), the investment adviser to the Fund, either may invest the Fund's assets in a subset of securities in the Index or may invest the Fund's assets in substantially all of the securities represented in the Index in approximately the same proportions as the Index, as determined by the Adviser to be in the best interest of the Fund in pursuing its objective. The Fund is classified as diversified under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; however, the Fund may become non-diversified solely as a result of tracking the Index (e.g., changes in weightings of one or more component securities). When the Fund is non-diversified, it may invest a relatively high percentage of its assets in a limited number of issuers.

UnitedHealth Group Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNH#NYSE">UNH</a>) shares are trading lower Monday on continued downside momentum from disappointing earnings last week. Multiple analysts also slashed price targets following the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/25/04/44869920/unitedhealth-ceo-says-high-cost-of-us-health-care-simply-not-sustainable">company&#8217;s quarterly results</a>.
What Happened: UnitedHealth reported first-quarter revenue of $109.58 billion, missing analyst estimates of $111.6 billion, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>. The company reported first-quarter adjusted earnings of $7.20 per share, missing estimates of $7.29 per share.
UnitedHealth also cut its full-year 2025 outlook due to rising medical costs. The health insurer now expects full-year adjusted earnings of $26 to $26.50 per share, down from its prior outlook of $29.50 to $30 per share. Analysts had been expecting full-year earnings of $29.73 per share, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a> estimates.
&#8220;UnitedHealth Group grew to serve more people more comprehensively but did not perform up to our expectations, and we are aggressively addressing those challenges to position us well for the years ahead, and return to our long-term earnings growth rate target of 13 to&nbsp;16%,&#8221; said Andrew Witty, CEO of UnitedHealth.
On the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/25/04/44869920/unitedhealth-ceo-says-high-cost-of-us-health-care-simply-not-sustainable">conference call</a> following the print, Witty noted that health care in the U.S. is more expensive than it should be. He told investors and analysts that even common procedures can cost up to four times more in the U.S. than in other countries.
&#8220;It&#8217;s simply not sustainable,&#8221; Witty said.

Upexi Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPXI#NASDAQ">UPXI</a>) stock skyrocketed on Monday after the company announced it had raised approximately $100 million through <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/ac44894922/upexi-announces-pricing-of-100-million-private-placement-priced-above-last-market-closing-price-u" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">securities purchase agreements</a> with a group of investors.
The deal involves the sale of 43,859,649 shares of common stock, or pre-funded warrants instead of shares, priced at $2.28 per share. 
The company plans to allocate the funds for working capital and debt reduction and establish its Solana treasury operations to expand into the cryptocurrency space.

The funding round saw backing from major crypto firms like Big Brain, Anagram, and Delphi Ventures and individual investors such as Austin Federa and Frank Chaparro. GSR led the investment, reinforcing support from key digital asset players.
The offering is set to close around April 24, subject to standard conditions. Funds will support Upexi&#8217;s expansion into crypto, including building a Solana treasury. About $5.3 million will be used for working capital and debt reduction.
This move aligns with Upexi&#8217;s diversification strategy, which also includes consumer product development. The private placement is being conducted under an exemption from registration requirements.
In March, Upexi&#8217;s subsidiary, Quantum Hash, agreed to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/03/ac44075110/upexi-signs-loi-to-purchase-operating-bitcoin-mining-facility" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">acquire</a> a 2MW facility. It plans to upgrade equipment and increase mining capacity. The goal is to expand to 10-20 MW by 2025, boosting the company&#8217;s cryptocurrency portfolio and revenue potential.
Price Action: UPXI shares are trading higher by over 649% at $17.02 at last check on Monday.

Ever wondered what it would be like to possess something outlandishly expensive and one-of-a kind? Maybe a <a href="https://www.artandobject.com/news/picasso-blockchain-tokenization-fillette-au-beret">Picasso</a>, <a href="https://blog.tiamonds.com/tiamonds-sets-the-bar-1-2-million-10-carat-tokenized-diamond/">a 10-carat diamond</a>, a <a href="https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/when-ferrari-tokenized-supercar-gives-european-investors-exposure-to-asset-class-2020-06">limited edition Ferrari</a>? By changing how we understand ownership, real world asset (RWA) tokenization could make the unattainable attainable.
More mundane assets like bonds and real estate are already moving into the DeFi ecosystem at speed. Figures from RWA.xyz show the market cap for tokenized RWAs hit a new <a href="https://app.rwa.xyz">all-time high of $20 billion this month</a> –&nbsp;with BlackRock's recently-launched tokenized U.S. Treasury fund (BUIDL) accounting for more than $2.5 billion.
Greater TradFi adoption seems almost certain. Is there a place for tokenized RWAs in your portfolio?
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Understanding Tokenized RWAs</h1>
In RWA tokenization, physical assets like art, cash, real estate, or precious metals are used to create virtual investment vehicles on the blockchain.
Rather than use paper for the deed to a house or a certificate of authenticity, proofs of ownership and validity live in the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem. There they can be traded between counterparties or fractionalized and put up for sale, giving many people partial ownership.
Real-world utility and ease of use are key attractions.

RWA tokenizing specialist Ondo Finance claims its onboarding process for retail traders can take less than five minutes — almost unheard of in technically complex DeFi. Last year its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ondo-usd">ONDO</a> governance token grew by over 550%.
Mantra Chain aims to do the same for institutions, making the process of launching, listing, and trading RWAs compliant and similar to investing in real estate and corporate bonds. In 2024 its native <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/OM-USD">OM</a> token grew 2,100%. Both companies achieved a market cap of $1 billion or more.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Why is RWA tokenization in the news?</h1>
Though it only captured mainstream media attention last year, tokenization has always been synonymous with blockchain.
Pritam Dutta, founder and chief executive of RWA tokenization company Zoth, told Bloomberg that "improved regulatory clarity and the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs have boosted institutional confidence among traditional finance players."
Oh Thongsrinoon, chief marketing officer of fashion metaverse company ALTAVA, told an industry gathering in August 2024 that DeFi innovations have made tokenized assets more trustworthy and reliable.
In a <a href="https://x.com/tomwanhh/status/1812844223277707526">posting on X</a> last year, Tom Wan, a digital asset strategy associate at crypto asset manager 21.co, said decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) were tapping into this newfound sense of trust to diversify away from more volatile crypto assets.
DAI stablecoin issuer Sky (formerly MakerDAO) aims to leverage the trend by onboarding <a href="https://forum.makerdao.com/t/announcement-spark-tokenization-grand-prix-request-for-proposal/24631?utm_source=newsletter&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=newsletter_axioscryptocurrency&amp;stream=business">up to $1 billion</a> in tokenized US Treasury bills and bonds this year. Its governance token MKR hit a three-year high last year on news of the move.
In August 2024, MKR was up over 70% year-to-date, outperforming Bitcoin by 53% for the year-to-date and Ether by 51%.&nbsp;
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Beyond Treasuries</h1>
How will the RWA tokenization market evolve this year? ALTAVA's Thongsrinoon believes the democratization of access to previously illiquid and high-value assets means tokenized real estate, commodities, and private equity will see substantial interest.
"These asset classes offer the potential for high returns and diversification, making them attractive to both institutional clients and retail users."
Zoth's Prittam Dutta told Reuters that he expects this years' interest rate cut cycle by the US Federal Reserve to make tokenized US Treasuries less attractive due to falling yields.
This could help tokenized corporate bonds shine, he added, one reason why Zoth is set to launch a tokenized liquid note with exposure to both corporate bonds and T-bills soon.
"Corporate bonds are particularly appealing as a high-quality yield alternative in a low-interest-rate environment, especially with the Federal Reserve hinting at potential rate cuts later this year."
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">DeFi's tokenized future</h1>
From supercars to precious metals, offline-world treasures are rapidly moving on-chain, transforming how they're owned, managed and traded.&nbsp;Boston Consulting Group estimates the total value of tokenized RWAs could reach <a href="https://web-assets.bcg.com/1e/a2/5b5f2b7e42dfad2cb3113a291222/on-chain-asset-tokenization.pdf">$16 trillion by 2030</a>. Standard Chartered thinks <a href="https://www.sc.com/en/press-release/trade-finance-to-play-substantial-role-in-usd-30-1-trillion-tokenised-real-world-assets-market-by-2034/">$30 trillion</a> is possible.
In an analysis published for its 10th Digital Money Symposium, <a href="https://www.citigroup.com/global/insights/citigps/money-tokens-and-games">Citigroup said</a> tokenization presents investors with the ultimate application for cryptocurrencies and blockchain.
"Almost anything of value can be tokenized and tokenization of financial and real-world assets could be the killer use case blockchain needs to drive a breakthrough."
Crypto has long been criticized for failing to find the right product-market fit. With some of the Wall Street's biggest institutions wading in, RWA tokenization could change the narrative.

United States Antimony Restarts Madero Smelter In Coahuila, Mexico On April 21, 2025, Begins Processing First International Antimony Shipment After Customs Delays, Targeting 200 Tons Monthly Production by Year-End

Plug Power Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLUG#NASDAQ">PLUG</a>) shares have tumbled 40% to 78 cents in April, weighed down by weak earnings and a reduced revenue outlook despite the launch of a new hydrogen liquefaction plant.
What To Know: The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44875414/whats-going-on-with-plug-power-stock-today">company&#8217;s joint venture</a> with Olin Corp., Hidrogenii, began operations at a major facility in Louisiana capable of producing 15 metric tons of hydrogen daily. This brings Plug's total U.S. production capacity to 40 metric tons per day and strengthens its domestic hydrogen supply chain.
However, the stock remains under pressure following a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/44614627/plug-power-stock-plagued-by-earnings-miss-cost-cuts-280m-capital-raise-in-march">disappointing fourth-quarter earnings report</a> from March, which revealed revenue of $191.5 million—well below analyst estimates—and a gross margin loss of 122%. 
The company also booked nearly $1 billion in impairment charges. In response, Plug announced cost-cutting measures through <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44103584/plug-stock-drops-as-hydrogen-leader-struggles-with-margins-initiates-cost-reduction-plan">"Project Quantum Leap"</a> and raised $280 million in new capital.
While management remains optimistic, with CEO Andy Marsh opting to take half his salary in stock, investors are remaining cautious due to lingering financial uncertainty and a lowered 2025 revenue forecast.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy PLUG Stock</h2>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Plug Power &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy &#8220;fractional shares,&#8221; which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share.
In the case of Plug Power, which is trading at $0.81 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 123.46 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to &#8220;go short&#8221; a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
According to data from <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, PLUG has a 52-week high of $4.90 and a 52-week low of $0.79.

XRP is trading 2.96% higher to start the week at $2.10, snapping a multiday slump with signs of renewed momentum in the futures market. The token is down 2.24% over the past seven days and has lost 11.78% over the last month—but <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-buy-ripple-xrp#:~:text=To%20purchase%20XRP%20on%20a,your%20assets%20as%20the%20custodian.">bullish sentiment is beginning to reemerge</a>.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Long Bets Climb, RSI Signals Momentum Shift</h2>
Futures market data shows traders are beginning to lean long on XRP again, with the token's long/short ratio climbing to 1.07. That marks a meaningful shift in positioning, as more traders are now betting on upward price movement than on declines—a potential signal of confidence returning to the market.
Supporting the trend is XRP's relative strength index (RSI), which has risen to 50.77. The RSI measures momentum and overbought/oversold conditions, and a move above the neutral 50 level typically indicates growing demand. In this case, it suggests buying pressure is starting to outweigh selling, a necessary precursor to any meaningful breakout.

</ul>
If current momentum continues, XRP could retest the key $2.18 resistance level in the coming sessions. That price marks an important technical barrier; flipping it to support may <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/04/44894713/xrp-jumps-4-what-is-going-on">open the door for a move to $2.29</a>. If bulls fail to sustain the rally, however, XRP could drop back toward $2.03 or even $1.99.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Technical Compression Signals a Move Is Coming</h2>
Market watchers are also flagging an unusual technical compression on XRP's chart. According to CoinDesk, Bollinger bandwidth on XRP's 4-hour chart has narrowed to its lowest level since October 2024—a pattern that often precedes high-volatility moves. The last time this setup occurred, XRP staged a breakout rally.
Still, the "spring compression" setups can swing both ways. While a rally is possible, a downside move is also on the table, particularly with some macro uncertainty lingering. The last time bandwidth compressed this tightly was just before the FTX crash in 2022, CoinDesk noted.
Traders will be watching closely for a directional break above $2.18 or below $2.03 to confirm whether the setup resolves bullishly or bearishly.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Broader Market Momentum Lends Support</h2>
Bitcoin's surge above $87,000 on Monday helped boost sentiment across the crypto market. XRP, along with BNB and SOL, notched modest gains during the session as traders revisited the "digital gold" thesis amid renewed inflation fears and a weakening U.S. dollar.
Gold also hit a fresh all-time high above $3,380 per ounce. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent downplayed concerns about a Treasury sell-off in a Bloomberg interview last Monday, but noted that the U.S. is exploring new leadership for the Federal Reserve and hinted that volatility could persist until markets fully absorb the shift in interest rate outlook.
If macro headwinds continue to ease and crypto momentum holds, XRP's bullish case may strengthen—particularly as traders pile into altcoins with high liquidity and ETF speculation tailwinds.
XRP's short-term setup is showing signs of life after a volatile month. Long positioning, RSI momentum and tight Bollinger bandwidth all point to a potential breakout—with $2.18 and $2.29 coming as the next upside targets. On the flip side, support at $2.03 and $1.99 remains key to maintaining structure if the rally falters.
With macro conditions still fluid and ETF speculation brewing in the background, XRP could be poised for a larger move—traders just need confirmation of the direction.

XRP Rally Resumes With Momentum Indicators Flashing Green

Fartcoin (CRYPTO: FARTCOIN) has emerged as the meme coin to watch, outperforming its more famous counterparts like Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) and Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/shib/usd">SHIB</a>).

Trader Notes: Popular crypto analyst Altcoin Sherpa <a href="https://x.com/AltcoinSherpa/status/1914095583297679780">says</a> Fartcoin is "looking pretty good." 
In an April 20 <a href="https://x.com/AltcoinSherpa/status/1913903094091620479">post</a> on X, he predicted a run to the $0.90s followed by a potential retest of $0.75 or lower. 
He views a move to $0.70 as a gift for patient traders preparing for the next structured leg higher. However, Bitcoin's rally will be the deciding factor for Fartcoin&#8217;s price trajectory.  
In another X post, Sherpa also outlined two possible paths: a continuation higher or a corrective dip, depending largely on Bitcoin's next move. He disclosed holding a "big bag" of Fartcoin himself.

A separate Stalkchain <a href="https://x.com/StalkHQ/status/1914260016573337981">update</a> on Monday has flagged a wallet aggressively dollar-cost averaging into Fartcoin, with $1 million invested in two batches: $500,000 at an average of $0.8907 and another $500,000 at $0.9128.
