The Trump administration terminated Harvard University&#8217;s ability to accept international students. This decision, announced on Thursday, affects current students who must transfer or risk losing their legal status.
What Happened: Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem ordered the revocation of Harvard&#8217;s Student and Exchange Visitor Program certification. Noem accused the university of &#8220;fostering violence, antisemitism, and coordinating with the Chinese Communist Party,&#8221; reported Reuters.
Harvard, which&nbsp;enrolled nearly 6,800 international students&nbsp;in the 2024-2025 academic year, called the move illegal and retaliatory. The university stated it was committed to supporting its foreign students and was preparing guidance for those impacted.
The action is part of a broader campaign by the Trump administration against Harvard, which has been a target due to its hiring practices and alleged ideological leanings. The administration has also frozen&nbsp;$3 billion in federal grants&nbsp;to the university.
In a related matter, a federal judge ruled&nbsp;that the administration could not&nbsp;terminate the legal status of&nbsp;foreign students without proper procedures. It remains unclear how this ruling will impact the action against Harvard.

Why It Matters: The revocation of Harvard&#8217;s ability to enroll international students is the latest development in a series of confrontations between the Trump administration and the university. Earlier in April, the administration <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">halted $2.2 billion in grants</a> to Harvard after the university refused to comply with demands to remove diversity, equity, and inclusion programs and to screen international students for ideological concerns. This move put nearly $9 billion in federal funding at risk.
Additionally, President Donald Trump has been vocal about stripping Harvard of its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/05/45185889/trump-harvards-not-a-school-its-a-political-entity-that-should-be-taxed">tax-exempt status</a>, accusing the university of acting as a &#8220;political entity.&#8221;

Trump Administration Revokes Harvard's Ability To Enroll International Students, Kristi Noem Alleges Coordination With Chinese Communist Party

A recent <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@daveramsey/video/7490955718892440878">TikTok video</a> shared by personal finance expert Dave Ramsey features a caller in deep financial distress. The woman explains she owes $19,000 across 35 credit cards and is also carrying a $30,000 student loan balance. She and her husband earn $60,000 a year but live paycheck to paycheck, struggling to keep up with minimum payments.
Ramsey didn't sugarcoat the solution. "Are you ready to endure some pain to get rid of this mess?" he asked.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Living Paycheck to Paycheck</h2>
The caller shared that she had started trying to pay off her credit cards, but each week felt like a cycle of covering the minimums and still falling behind. "It's just living paycheck to paycheck," she said.

"This money is owning you, you don't own it," he said.
His advice? Get serious, make a plan, and stick to it — even if it's uncomfortable at first.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Turning Point: Making a Plan</h2>
Once the caller and her husband confirmed they were both ready to commit to a change, Ramsey pointed them to a free budgeting tool: EveryDollar.com, which also has mobile and desktop versions.
He explained how using a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/what-is-zero-based-budgeting">zero-based budget</a> — where every dollar is assigned a purpose before it's spent — can help break the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle. "You're telling your money what to do instead of wondering where it went," he said.
Ramsey&#8217;s approach focuses on giving each dollar a job, whether it&#8217;s for essentials like groceries and housing, or for paying down debt. When people build their budgets this way, they can prioritize their most urgent goals — in this case, getting out from under 35 credit cards.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Budgeting 101: The Basics Behind the Advice</h2>
<a href="https://www.ramseysolutions.com/budgeting/how-to-make-a-budget">Ramsey Solutions</a> offers a five-step method for building a working budget:
<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li>List your income. Include regular paychecks and any side hustle income.</li>
<li>List your expenses. Start with essentials like housing, food, utilities, and transportation.</li>
<li>Subtract expenses from income. Every dollar should be accounted for.</li>
<li>Track expenses all month long. Keep an eye on where your money actually goes.</li>
<li>Make a new budget before each month begins. Adjust as needed based on your financial reality.</li>
</ol>
By following this system, people can regain control of their finances — even when starting from a difficult place.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">‘You Can Do This'</h2>
Ramsey closed the call with encouragement. "When you get sick and tired of sick and tired, you're ready to change your life, kiddo. You can do it."
While climbing out of debt may require sacrifice and temporary discomfort, Ramsey emphasized that it&#8217;s possible with a plan and determination.
His broader message: A higher income alone won't fix poor money habits. Without a plan, even six-figure earners can end up broke. But with a budget — and a willingness to endure a little "pain" — people can work their way toward lasting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/04/44616088/dave-ramsey-caller-tells-him-following-advice-to-pay-off-house-didnt-work-because-now-she-has-no">financial peace</a>.

If You Invested $100 In This Stock 5 Years Ago, You Would Have This Much Today

A new Seattle-based <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45444616/capital-connect-crumbles-jpmorgans-175m-bet-on-startup-platform-ends-amidst-venture-capital-market-turmoil">startup</a>, Hearvana, is making waves in the audio technology industry. Founded by University of Washington computer science professor Shyam Gollakota and PhD student Malek Itani, Hearvana is developing superhuman hearing capabilities for everyday devices. These advancements are poised to be integrated into billions of earbuds, hearing aids, and smartphones, according to<a href="https://www.geekwire.com/2025/ai-startup-led-by-uw-computer-science-whiz-enables-superhuman-hearing-capabilities/"> GeekWire</a>.
The company is being incubated by the AI2 Incubator, part of the Allen Institute for AI, which was founded by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44831264/microsoft-debuts-computer-use-tool-for-copilot-studio-ceo-satya-nadella-says-anyone-can-build-agents-that-take-action-on-the-ui-across-desktop-and-web-apps">Microsoft</a> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) co-founder Paul Allen. The incubator was launched by AI2's founding CEO Oren Etzioni to support early-stage AI startups, according to the institute&#8217;s <a href="https://www.ai2incubator.com/team">website</a>. The company aims to use artificial intelligence to make hearing seamless, personalized, and radically more powerful for billions of users, GeekWire reports.

</ul>
Gollakota told GeekWire that Hearvana is &#8220;creating AI breakthroughs that are shaping the future of sound,&#8221; adding that their &#8220;AI algorithms enable on-device superhuman hearing capabilities and will be part of billions of earbuds, hearing aids, and smartphones.&#8221;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Sound Bubble That Lets You Choose What You Hear</h2>
Hearvana's technology focuses on real-time audio filtering, letting users choose what they want to hear while blocking out everything else. According to GeekWire, the company's AI can locate sound sources, understand their distance, and build what Gollakota and his team describe as a "sound bubble."
This innovation solves a pain point nearly everyone experiences, trying to follow a conversation in a noisy restaurant or crowded event. The algorithms run directly on a device, meaning no data needs to be sent to the cloud, GeekWire reports.
Trending: Maker of the $60,000 foldable home has 3 factory buildings, 600+ houses built, and big plans to solve housing — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/boxabl-scaling-fast-from-spacex-orders-to-600-homes-built-this-60k-foldable-home-may-be-the-future-of-housing">this is your last chance to become an investor for $0.80 per share.</a>
Hearvana&#8217;s early research,<a href="https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/11/241114161302.htm"> published</a> in November by Gollakota and Itani, demonstrated headphones that adjust dynamically to noise and user focus. The team believes this approach could soon set the standard in next-generation audio technology, aligning with the broader professional audiovisual market, which is projected to reach $422 billion globally by 2029, according to<a href="https://www.avixa.org/about-us/press-room/2024/08/21/pro-av-revenue-forecast-to-reach--422-billion-by-2029--according-to-new-research-from-avixa"> AVIXA&#8217;s 2024 Industry Outlook and Trends Analysis</a>.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Google, Meta, And AI2: A Deep Bench Of Innovation</h2>
Hearvana's founding team blends academic excellence with real-world traction. Gollakota is no stranger to startup success. According to GeekWire, he previously co-founded Sound Life Sciences, which developed smartphone-based breathing detection and was acquired by Google in 2022. He also co-founded Wavely Diagnostics, a smartphone app that detects ear infections.
The startup&#8217;s team brings together expertise from academia and industry. Itani, who previously interned at Meta (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), worked on smart glasses during his time at the tech giant, GeekWire reports. The team's work has already drawn support from Oren Etzioni, technical director at AI2 Incubator.

&#8220;Hearvana is my favorite kind of startup,&#8221; Etzioni told GeekWire. &#8220;It addresses a familiar pain point — we all struggle to hear in noisy settings like a restaurant or a party — with deep AI technology.&#8221;
Hearvana is also actively hiring as it gears up to scale its impact. In a recent<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/posts/shyam-gollakota-84b8541_hearvanaai-hiring-activity-7191709830827481088-7ytr"> LinkedIn post</a>, Gollakota announced the company is looking for passionate candidates to help shape "the future of sound." The startup is currently recruiting for two key roles: a founding deep learning engineer and a founding acoustic simulation engineer.
As Hearvana continues to develop its technology, the company may make significant contributions to the field of audio processing. By combining cutting-edge AI with practical applications, Hearvana aims to enhance the auditory experience for users worldwide.

The U.S. economy faces a growing list of headwinds that could threaten growth and stability in 2025. Persistent tariff pressures, rising borrowing costs, low consumer confidence and the resumption of student loan payments each has the potential to slow growth and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/05/45564489/trumps-big-tax-bill-clears-the-house-30-year-yields-jump-to-515-as-bond-market-freaks">disrupt economic stability.&nbsp;</a>
Here are 10 key downside risks Dr. Torsten Slok, chief economist for Apollo Global, <a href="https://www.apolloacademy.com/10-downside-risks-to-the-us-economic-outlook/">identified this week</a>. 
1. Moody's Downgrade Raises Borrowing Cost
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Last week, Moody's cut the U.S. long-term credit rating<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s/25/05/45479078/moodys-downgrades-us-credit-rating-over-debt-deficit-concerns"> from Aaa to Aa1</a>, which made borrowing more expensive for consumers and businesses and put pressure on spending and investment.</li>
</ul>
2. Weakening Housing Demand
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Higher mortgage rates are dampening <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45540541/5-treasury-yields-are-back-and-so-are-painful-mortgage-rates">demand for homes</a> and slowing down one of the U.S. economy's key growth engines.&nbsp;</li>

3. Tariffs Cutting into Corporate Earnings
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>President Donald Trump recently reduced many of the originally steep tariffs he announced on "Liberation Day," but the average tariff rate remains elevated. The higher levies are squeezing company profits, especially for firms reliant on imported goods and global supply chains.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
4. Trade Deal Uncertainty and Retaliation Risk
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Though most reciprocal tariffs have been "paused" and reduced to a baseline of 10% for 90 days to allow for negotiations, few permanent deals have been reached. China and the U.S. would have to agree on a more permanent solution soon as the pause is set to expire in mid-August.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
5. High Uncertainty Weakening Corporate Confidence
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Businesses are facing extreme uncertainty, making it difficult to plan and invest, which could slow economic activity. JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon said businesses are in &#8220;wait and see&#8221; mode and are postponing hiring, expansions and M&amp;A deals while<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/management/25/04/44774273/jpmorgan-ceo-jamie-dimon-expects-sp-500-growth-forecast-to-be-cut"> the future remains</a> uncertain. </li>
</ul>
&#8220;People have to adjust to this new environment,&#8221; Dimon said.&nbsp;
6. Consumer Spending Hit by Higher Prices
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Rising prices at retailers are causing consumers to cut back on spending. Walmart CEO Doug McMillon told analysts on the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/management/25/05/45473067/walmart-prices-will-rise-within-weeks-as-trump-tariffs-drive-up-costs-will-other-retailers-follow-suit">company's earnings call</a> on Thursday that the retailer will be raising prices on some items as a direct result of ongoing tariffs.&nbsp;</li>

7. Historically Weak Consumer Confidence
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Consumer sentiment is dropping drastically and raising concerns about future demand and economic resilience. The University of Michigan's May consumer survey showed that sentiment among American consumers has plunged <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/05/45470155/consumer-sentiment-crashes-to-5-year-lows-as-inflation-fears-reach-1981-levels">to the lowest levels</a> since June 2020, while expectations for inflation surged to heights last seen in the early 1980s.</li>
</ul>
8. Lower Tourism
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>A decline in visitor arrivals from key regions is negatively impacting airlines, hotels and restaurants, according to the Apollo economist.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
9. Student Loan Payments Restarting
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>The end of the COVID-19 pandemic-era pause on student loan payments is expected to strain household budgets and reduce discretionary spending. The U.S. Department of Education resumed collections on defaulted <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45012792/trump-administration-to-resume-collections-on-student-loans-5-million-borrowers-in-default">federal student loans</a> in May, and according to data from the DOE, more than five million borrowers are in default. </li>
</ul>
10. DOGE Government Worker Layoffs
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Layoffs of federal employees and contractors could lead to higher unemployment and reduced consumer spending, with ripple effects across the economy, according to Dr. Slok.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>

"This was a uniquely attractive time as we felt that the company would be able to work through any slowdown" in Amazon's cloud business, Israel said.
He added that Amazon is a "fantastic franchise"&nbsp; and "well on its way" to delivering more than 20% earnings per share growth.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Amazon stock tumbled more than 30% following President Donald Trump's tariff announcements on "Liberation Day" in early April to a low of $167.32 on April 21.&nbsp;
Amazon CEO Andy Jassy told shareholders on Wednesday that the company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/management/25/05/45551594/amazon-ceo-andy-jassy-no-slowdown-in-consumer-spending-amid-tariffs">has not experienced</a> any significant changes in consumer spending due to the tariffs.&nbsp;
Jassy said, "We have not seen any attenuation of demand at this point," and added that there have been no "meaningful average selling price increases."&nbsp;

Bill Ackman's Pershing Square Builds New Stake In Amazon At 'Extremely Attractive' Price

Jamie Dimon says the U.S. can&#8217;t take its status as the world&#8217;s top economic power for granted anymore.
In a recent interview with <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCSFDihV51g">Bloomberg Television</a>, the JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JPM#NYSE">JPM</a>) CEO was asked whether he worries about U.S. supremacy and exceptionalism. He answered, perhaps surprisingly, that he never quite believed in American exceptionalism and warned that regulation and what he called &#8220;stupid bureaucracy&#8221; are holding the country back.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Dimon Says U.S. Risks Falling Behind</h2>
&#8220;We've slowed ourselves down with regulation, stupid bureaucracy,&#8221; Dimon said. &#8220;We haven't done budgets in years. So, no, we shouldn't assume it's forever.&#8221;
Don't Miss:

</ul>
He pointed to a long list of issues that are weighing on the economy: inflation, deficits, rising interest rates, and ongoing global conflicts.
&#8220;There&#8217;s a lot of uncertainty out there that you can&#8217;t discount,&#8221; he said, mentioning the war in Ukraine, terrorism, instability in the Middle East and U.S. deficits. He also highlighted the risks created by tariffs, saying that although the U.S. has backed off some of its earlier moves, even the current level of trade tension is causing companies to hesitate.
&#8220;Even at this level, you see people holding back on investment and thinking through what they want to do,&#8221; Dimon said.
On the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45071155/mild-recession-is-best-case-outcome-jpmorgan-ceo-jamie-dimon">possibility of a U.S. recession</a>, Dimon didn&#8217;t give a firm prediction. Instead, he deferred to economists and put the chances at &#8220;about 50%.&#8221; Interestingly, JPMorgan&#8217;s analysts raised their <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/04/44645681/jpmorgan-raises-recession-risk-to-60-as-largest-us-tax-hike-in-60-years-hits-global-economy">recession probability to 60%</a> in April, up from 40% in March.&nbsp;
He added, &#8220;All these things are probably inflationary&#8230; and slowing down the economy.&#8221;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Is America a Bad Investment Destination?&nbsp;</h2>
Still, despite the challenges, Dimon said America remains the top choice for investment: &#8220;If you would take all of your money and put it in one country, it would still be America.&#8221;
However, he cautioned that this dominance isn't guaranteed. "You do not have a divine right to success,&#8221; he said. &#8220;If we don't do everything right, we can lose that.&#8221;
Dimon also expressed admiration for some foreign leaders who he believes are taking a more business-friendly approach. He praised French President Emmanuel Macron, U.K.&nbsp; Prime Minister Keir Starmer and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz for their pro-business attitudes. &#8220;I think Macron is one of the best political leaders on the planet today.&#8221;
On global competition, Dimon was frank: &#8220;Assume competition. Assume they&#8217;re coming at you in every angle.&#8221;

Asked about <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45336194/charlie-mungers-timeless-advice-for-navigating-volatile-markets-be-fearful-when-others-are-greedy-and-be-greedy-when-others-are-fearful">market volatility</a>, Dimon said he expects it to continue and warned against assuming it will go away anytime soon.
&#8220;I think it&#8217;s a mistake to think we can go through all the things we&#8217;re going through and the volatility itself will come down,&#8221; he said.
As for JPMorgan&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/05/45483359/jamie-dimon-says-dont-tell-jpmorgan-what-to-do-as-he-tells-remote-workers-you-cant-learn-working-fro">return-to-office policy</a>, which drew <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43757032/jamie-dimon-goes-off-on-return-to-office-critics-you-dont-have-to-work-at-jpmorgan">media attention</a> earlier this year, Dimon stood firm: &#8220;I&#8217;m not against work from home. I&#8217;m against work when it doesn&#8217;t work.&#8221;
He said the company has seen no additional attrition and that young employees especially need in-person experience to grow.
&#8220;It&#8217;s an apprenticeship system and you can&#8217;t learn working from your basement,&#8221; Dimon said.

Here's How Much $1000 Invested In GE Aerospace 5 Years Ago Would Be Worth Today

IMMX

IMMX stock has given up its prior gain. Immix Biopharma shares were trading higher after the company announced the publication of cell therapy NXC-201 Abstract #7508, selected for oral presentation at the 2025 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting.

In a world where the go-to buzzword is &#8220;disruption,&#8221; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs">one new ETF </a>is doubling down on the established players. 
Strategy Shares, in conjunction with Rareview Capital LLC, debuted the Monopoly ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MPLY#BATS">MPLY</a>) on May 16, a thematic fund focused on firms with deep market roots, or to use the parlance of the fund, &#8220;monopolistic attributes.&#8221;
Since its launch, the fund&#8217;s offering has been hit with a mix of curiosity and goal-oriented focus. Whereas most money is pursuing innovation, growth-at-all-costs, or the next breakout theme, MPLY pursues safety in dominance instead. 
Its investment thesis relies on four characteristic attributes: • Established brand dominance • Regulatory exclusivity • High entry barriers • No direct competition or limited direct competition. 
That is to say, businesses that don&#8217;t merely compete but effectively set the rules of the game.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Structure And Strategy</h1>
MPLY will have 75 to 125 holdings, diversified among sectors and sizes, with some degree of diversification despite focusing on monopolistic characteristics. Per the guidelines of the fund, the portfolio will not include regulated utilities, presumably a tip of the hat to the avoidance of price-control-subject sectors that may limit returns regardless of monopolistic market position.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">A Defensive Play In A Volatile Market</h1>
Rareview Capital CIO Neil Azous highlighted the fund&#8217;s possible status as a &#8220;core solution&#8221; within equity portfolios. 
&#8220;MPLY can be a core solution and a potential replacement for a portion of a portfolio's stock market exposure. The Fund seeks to capture market upside, but may act more defensive on the downside,&#8221; Azous said. 
&#8220;The companies the fund invests in generally have sustainable competitive advantages, tangible barriers to entry, and defensive earnings streams. As a result, they typically have the potential to generate high returns on invested capital that may compound over long periods,&#8221; Azous added. 
That means the type of reliability investors seek amid uncertainty in markets: high returns on capital, compounded over time.
Essentially, MPLY is not merely about market dominance, it&#8217;s about foresight in an increasingly story-oriented market. By focusing on long-term moats instead of short-term momentum, the fund offers a defensive growth approach that might appeal to institutional investors as well as individual investors hesitant to overexpose themselves to story stocks.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Beyond The Buzz</h1>
While the marketing of the fund emphasizes a compelling mix of defense and innovation, invoking &#8220;Monopoly&#8221; as a branding gimmick is interesting. The label brings to mind the classic board game, as well as a genuine economic entity, so exposed to regulators. Still, the managers are sensitive to delineate their holdings as companies with &#8220;monopolistic qualities,&#8221; but not as so-called monopolies, a semantic, but possibly regulatory, distinction.
The true test will come in the doing: whether MPLY can balance its audacious thesis with strong performance through market cycles. For now, it presents a sharp proposition, betting not on something trendy and new, but on something big that is already dominating the board.
