LOBO EV TECHNOLOGIES LTD. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LOBO#NASDAQ">LOBO</a>) shares are trading higher after the company issued a year-over-year increase in its fiscal-year <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/45221983">2025 revenue guidance.</a>
What To Know: The company sees revenue from $28 million to $30 million, representing a projected 41.5% increase over estimated fiscal-year 2024 results of $21.2 million.
The company cited a plethora of factors as the reason for growth. For instance, it cited rising global demand for affordable electric two- and three-wheeled vehicles.
It also pointed to a rapidly growing Latin American market as well as enhanced production efficiency and improved gross margins through IT infrastructure upgrades as reasons for the projected growth.
Huajian Xu, CEO of LOBO Technologies, said, &#8220;We are scaling responsibly while seizing opportunities in high-potential markets. Our mobility solutions are built for both urban and rural communities, and we&#8217;re just beginning to unlock our global potential. The company is currently trading at a deeply discounted valuation—just 1x price-to-earnings (P/E) and 0.2x price-to-sales (P/S)—figures that significantly understate the strength of our operational performance and the robustness of our long-term growth prospects.&#8221;

A Closer Look at Micron Technology's Options Market Dynamics

Palantir Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) shares have surged 19% over the past week to $128.03, a new all-time high, as a wave of positive catalysts buoyed investor sentiment.
Earlier, the Saudi Crown Prince announced hopes for $600B–$1T in investment opportunities, signaling major development plans. President Donald Trump expressed support for Middle East stability and economic growth, potentially opening doors for U.S. companies like Palantir.
Saudi investment ambitions may boost demand for Palantir&#8217;s technology in large-scale regional projects. Geopolitical collaboration and stabilization could increase reliance on data analytics, favoring Palantir's growth.
What To Know From Earnings: The rally follows the company's better-than-expected <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45208000/palantir-q1-earnings-revenue-beat-eps-in-line-customer-count-up-39-company-raises-guidance-citing-surging-and-ferocious-growth">first-quarter earnings</a> and revenue of $883.86 million, exceeding analyst estimates, along with raised full-year guidance across key metrics including revenue and free cash flow.
CEO Alex Karp pointed to a &#8220;tectonic shift&#8221; in software adoption and highlighted an 83% Rule of 40 score. Palantir now expects full-year revenue between $3.89 billion and $3.90 billion, above previous guidance and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45233062/palantir-analysts-boost-their-forecasts-after-q1-results">analyst forecasts</a>.

Key Tariff And Macro Update: The broader tech sector also gained after the U.S. and China <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/05/45347089/wall-street-rips-higher-as-tariff-truce-halts-us-china-economic-escalation">announced a tariff truce</a>, easing supply chain concerns and lifting macroeconomic sentiment. The agreement cuts tariffs sharply for 90 days starting May 14, offering relief to industries like software and industrial tech.
Further supporting the rally, U.S. CPI data released Tuesday showed inflation cooling <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/05/45374267/inflation-eases-in-april-as-trumps-tariffs-dont-push-prices-higher">faster than expected</a>, with headline CPI at 2.3% year-over-year.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy PLTR Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Palantir Technologies&#8217; case, it is in the Information Technology sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, PLTR has a 52-week high of $125.41 and a 52-week low of $63.40.

<h3>Comparing MGM Resorts International P/E Against Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
MGM Resorts International has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 35.49 of the Hotels, Restaurants &amp; Leisure industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued.

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.

"I haven't had much time to buy presents. I've been pretty busy," President Donald Trump <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/past-events/president-trump-gaggles-on-air-force-one-apr-25-2025/">told journalists</a> on Air Force One on April 25 when asked if he had a birthday gift for Melania Trump.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Melania's 55th birthday was the following day.&nbsp;</h2>
"I'll take her to dinner on the Boeing. I'll take her for dinner on Air Force One," he said this during a press gaggle en route to Rome for Pope Francis&#8217; funeral. "I haven't had much time to buy presents, no. We've been pretty busy. But it's working out, things are working out very well. People are starting to understand how good tariffs are for us."

</ul>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tariffs, Dinner Plans, And Discontent</h2>
Trump's remarks came just weeks after he announced sweeping new tariffs on imports from nearly every country.&nbsp;
On April 2, the administration imposed a 10% base tariff across the board, with China facing duties as high as 145%. In response, China introduced its own retaliatory tariffs of up to 125%, straining relations further.
Despite Trump's claims of progress, the White House has not disclosed any official agreements. In an interview with <a href="https://time.com/7280114/donald-trump-2025-interview-transcript">Time magazine</a> this week, Trump said, "I've made 200 deals" to reduce tariffs.&nbsp;
However, no specifics or involved countries were mentioned. When pressed, he added, "The deal is a deal that I choose," asserting that meetings were underway with "very friendly countries," including China.

Chinese officials have contradicted Trump's assertions. According to the <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/cb553e32-2372-410b-9e4d-0aa59c6db35d">Financial Times</a>, Beijing said it had not yet been part of any formal tariff negotiations but is open to future dialogue. Instead, China called on the U.S. to adopt a more respectful tone before any diplomatic progress can be made.&nbsp;
Meanwhile, public opinion in the U.S. appears at odds with Trump's trade strategy.&nbsp;
A <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2025/04/25/trump-tariffs-poll-approval/">Washington Post/ABC News/Ipsos poll</a> released in April shows that just 34% of Americans support the president's approach to tariffs. A significant 64% disapprove of the policy, including 51% of Republican respondents.

The poll also revealed that Trump's broader approval rating has dipped. A <a href="https://scri.siena.edu/2025/04/25/new-york-times-siena-survey-president-trumps-first-100-days/">New York Times/Siena College survey</a> conducted in April shows only 42% of Americans approve of his performance. Two-thirds of respondents described his presidency as "chaotic," with Independents and even <a href="https://rvat.org/">some Republicans </a>echoing that sentiment.
Despite internal projections from his administration claiming that 90 tariff deals could be struck within 90 days, trade experts remain skeptical.&nbsp;
Wendy Cutler, former acting deputy U.S. Trade Representative, <a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/trump-trade-team-chases-90-deals-90-days-experts-say-good-luck-with-that-2025-04-12/">told Reuters</a> there's no chance of wrapping up comprehensive agreements in that timeframe. "Teeing up these decisions is going to take some serious negotiations," she said.
