Elon Musk's artificial intelligence company, xAI, reportedly reached a valuation of $50 billion just 16 months after its founding in July 2023. It is now worth more than what the billionaire paid for Twitter. Arguably the most well-known name in the AI space, OpenAI, last valued at $157 billion, needed over nine years to achieve the same milestone.&nbsp;

According to Business Insider, xAI is gaining traction in the competitive AI sector and is now valued higher than other AI startups, such as Anthropic (valued at $19 billion) and Perplexity (at $2.8 billion).&nbsp;



xAI's journey has been marked by significant milestones, including raising $5 billion in its latest funding round to purchase 100,000 Nvidia chips. These chips will power the Memphis supercomputer, a facility designed to enhance the company's AI capabilities and support Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) technology. According to WSJ and other outlets, the funding included $5 billion from Valor Equity Partners, Sequoia Capital, Andreessen Horowitz and Qatar Investment Authority.



The Memphis supercomputer, awaiting final approval, is a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42022077/elon-musks-xai-seeks-6b-at-50b-valuation-to-acquire-100k-nvidia-chips-for-memphis-data-center">key part of xAI&#8217;s strategy</a>. It was built in less time than is customary for projects of this kind and is situated on a former manufacturing site. In a recent podcast, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang mentioned that xAI finished building the supercluster in 19 days, although the procedure usually takes more than a year.&nbsp;

&#8220;Just to put in perspective, 100,000 GPUs are easily the fastest supercomputer on the planet as one cluster. A supercomputer that you would build would normally take three years to plan,&#8221; Huang said, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41307824/nvidia-ceo-jensen-huang-praises-elon-musk-for-achieving-something-with-xai-in-19-days-that-usually-t">stressing the role of xAI's engineering</a> and infrastructure teams and crediting them with the system's rapid deployment.&nbsp;



xAI has most notably developed the AI chatbot Grok, inspired by the sci-fi novel The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Grok is positioned as a competitor to OpenAI's ChatGPT, Google's Gemini and Anthropic's Claude. The chatbot uses xAI's proprietary large language model, Grok-2 and has been a notable part of the company's portfolio.



Elon Musk has openly said that his social media platform, X, is<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39979855/elon-musks-x-shares-your-posts-on-his-social-media-platform-with-grok-for-training-heres-how-you-can"> being used to help train xAI's Grok chatbot</a>. By tapping into the conversations and posts on X, the chatbot can learn to respond more naturally and relevantly.



In just 16 months, xAI has achieved a notable valuation and infrastructure development within the industry. The company is preparing for further advancements with plans to double the number of AI chips at the Memphis facility.

In Just 16 Months, Elon Musk Achieved With xAI What Took OpenAI Nearly Nine Years To Accomplish

Israel's ceasefire agreement with Hezbollah which entered into force on Wednesday appears to be unraveling after alleged violations by the Lebanese militant group prompted <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/israel">an Israeli military response</a>.



According to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), a Hezbollah-linked facility in southern Lebanon was targeted in an airstrike on Thursday after suspicious activity was identified. 



The site reportedly housed medium-range rockets, which were deemed a potential threat.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">IDF&#8217;s Response To Alleged Breaches</h3>



IDF spokesperson Avichay Adraee announced on X that several suspects, some traveling in vehicles, were spotted entering multiple areas in southern Lebanon, violating the ceasefire agreement. IDF forces responded by opening fire on the group.



Adraee further stated that &#8220;terrorist activity was detected at a Hezbollah site in southern Lebanon, which contained medium-range rockets.&#8221; He confirmed that Israeli warplanes carried out a strike to neutralize the threat.



&#8220;The IDF is deployed in southern Lebanon and is actively working to prevent any violations of the ceasefire agreement,&#8221; Adraee added.



He also issued a warning to residents of southern Lebanon, emphasizing that movement south of the Litani River is strictly prohibited between 5 p.m. and 7 a.m. local time.



Separately, Avital Leibovich, director of the American Jewish Committee Israel Office, highlighted that Hezbollah operatives had entered the village of Kfarkela near the Israeli border, where they are prohibited under the agreement. In response, IDF forces fired warning shots toward the group.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Markets React To Renewed Middle East Tensions</h3>



Commodities showed reactions following the latest headlines in Middle East. 



Oil futures rose 0.5% on Thursday, with West Texas Intermediate (WTI) prices – tracked by the United States Oil Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/USO#NYSE">USO</a>) – climbing to $68.9 a barrel, marking a potential end to a three-day losing streak. 



Gold futures edged up 0.4%, continuing a strong rally. The precious metal is now eyeing its sixth consecutive positive session as investors turn to safe-haven assets amid geopolitical uncertainty.

Israel-Hezbollah Ceasefire Violations Spark Tensions, IDF Strikes Southern Lebanon: Oil Prices Surge

As U.S. markets paused for Thanksgiving, European equities staged a rebound on Thursday, snapping a three-day losing streak. Lower-than-expected consumer inflation data from Germany rekindled optimism for more aggressive rate cuts by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/interest-rates">the European Central Bank (ECB)</a>.



Germany&#8217;s annual inflation rate edged higher, rising from 2.0% in October to 2.2% in November , but came in just below market expectations of 2.3%. On a monthly basis, Germany&#8217;s consumer price index (CPI) fell 0.2%, marking the sharpest decline in over a year. The unexpected contraction in monthly CPI added to speculation that the ECB could accelerate monetary easing to support the region&#8217;s economy.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">European Equities Post Gains</h3>



The Euro STOXX 50, a key benchmark for the eurozone's 50 largest blue-chip stocks, closed up 0.5%, buoyed by gains in industrials and energy stocks. Among the biggest winners were:



<ul>
<li>Airbus SE (OTCPK: AEDSY): +4.2%</li>



<li>RWE AG (OTCPK: RWEOY): +2.7%</li>



<li>ASML Holding NV (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASML#NASDAQ">ASML</a>): +2.3%</li>
</ul>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Dollar Rebounds, Yen Slips After Wednesday&#8217;s Rally</h3>



Meanwhile, the euro slipped 0.2%, trading at $1.0550 against the U.S. dollar. A currency weighted measure of the greenback – tracked by the Invesco DB USD Index Bullish Fund ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UUP#NYSE">UUP</a>) – was also up by 0.2%. 



The yen was the underperformer among major currencies, falling by 0.3% following a 1.3% rally on Wednesday. 



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Commodities: Gold Shines, Oil Sees Volatility</h3>



Commodities were mixed in Thursday&#8217;s session:



<ul>
<li>Gold futures edged up 0.2%, eyeing their sixth gain in the last seven trading days. </li>



<li>Natural gas futures climbed 2.3%, recovering some ground after an 8.5% drop on Wednesday. Thus far in November, natural gas prices are up by 20%. </li>



<li>Oil prices had a choppy session, initially rising on reports of Israeli forces citing violations of the Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire agreement. However, as tensions eased, oil pared gains to trade flat.</li>
</ul>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Crypto Struggles To Maintain Momentum</h3>



Cryptocurrencies saw a pullback after recent gains:



<ul>
<li>Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) fell 0.9% to around $95,000, failing to sustain momentum from Wednesday's 4.6% rally.</li>



<li>Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) dropped 3%, erasing part of its 10% surge the previous day. The pullback highlighted a weaker appetite for risk-on assets within the crypto space.</li>

European Stocks Close Higher, Dollar Gains, Bitcoin Eases To $95,000: What's Driving Markets Thursday?

Palantir Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) is having a banner year, with its stock surging over 235% in the past year and showing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/PLTR/news">no signs of slowing</a>. 



Market strategist Keith Fitz-Gerald believes this is just the beginning, boldly claiming that Palantir could rival Oracle Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ORCL#NYSE">ORCL</a>), Cisco Systems Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CSCO#NASDAQ">CSCO</a>) and SAP SE (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SAP#NYSE">SAP</a>) — and hit $100 per share sooner than you think.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Palantir Could Hit $100 By Mid-2025, Says Expert</h2>



Fitz-Gerald, <a href="https://x.com/fitz_keith/status/1861188617739145336">speaking</a> on Fox Business, shared an upgraded outlook for the data analytics powerhouse. Initially forecasting a $100 price target within 3-5 years, he now expects Palantir to hit that milestone by mid-next year. "This thing is a monster," he said. "Nobody else has got a product like it. It's meshing data software that makes software work. Every legacy provider right now is in trouble."



The analyst's comparisons to industry titans like Oracle and Cisco come as Palantir continues to disrupt with its innovative data solutions. 



Fitz-Gerald emphasized the company's unmatched product offering, suggesting it could outpace traditional providers struggling to adapt to modern data demands.

The bullish sentiment isn't just talk.

PLTR stock, at $66.05, is flying high above all its major moving averages:



<ul>
<li>Eight-day SMA: $63.56</li>



<li>20-day SMA: $58.00</li>



<li>50-day SMA: $47.68</li>



<li>200-day SMA: $31.14</li>
</ul>



These technical signals underscore a strong uptrend, with PLTR&#8217;s Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) at 5.51, another indicator of a buying opportunity. 



However, investors should note the RSI of 73.03, suggesting the PLTR stock is in overbought territory.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Palantir: A Long-Term Play</h2>



For long-term believers, Palantir's trajectory could mirror the meteoric rise of companies like Oracle and Cisco during their heydays. With its unique ability to integrate complex data solutions across industries, Palantir is positioned to dominate a market where legacy systems are struggling to keep pace.



If Fitz-Gerald's prediction holds, Palantir could hit triple digits by next year, but investors might want to buckle up for a wild ride as the stock navigates both technical and market dynamics.



Whether Palantir becomes the next Oracle or carves its own path, one thing is clear: this data giant isn't slowing down anytime soon.

Palantir: The Next Oracle? Expert Predicts A Monster Run To $100

Coinbase Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) CEO Brian Armstrong has criticized Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), calling her a &#8220;liability&#8221; to the Democratic Party and accusing her of being complicit in attempts to undermine <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42122348/trumps-planned-crypto-council-may-oversee-bitcoin-reserve-report">the cryptocurrency industry.</a>



What Happened: Armstrong's comments came in response to a tweet from Elon Musk, referring to venture capitalist Marc Andreessen <a href="https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1861667220876824869">alleging</a> that 30 tech founders were secretly debanked in an appearance on the Joe Rogan podcast. 



Armstrong <a href="https://x.com/brian_armstrong/status/1861890800268775923">supported</a> Musk's claim, describing the situation as "one of the most unethical and un-American things that happened in the Biden administration."



He speculated that Senator Warren played a key role, stating, "My guess is we&#8217;ll find Elizabeth Warren&#8217;s fingerprints all over it." 



He also alleged that Warren and SEC Chair <a href="https://x.com/brian_armstrong/status/1861890800268775923">Gary Gensler</a> attempted to &#8220;unlawfully kill our entire industry,&#8221; suggesting that their actions contributed to the Democratic Party's poor performance in the recent elections.



Armstrong also revealed that Coinbase is pursuing Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests to gather documents to uncover the full extent of the issue and determine if any laws were broken.



"We're still collecting documents via FOIA requests, so hopefully the full story emerges of who was involved," Armstrong added.

Why It Matters: The Coinbase CEO&#8217;s criticism reflects growing tensions between the cryptocurrency industry and certain Democratic leaders, particularly Warren, who has long been a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/41963342/elizabeth-warrens-sarcastic-take-on-doges-split-leadership-gets-slammed-by-elon-musk-unlike-you-neither-of-us-are-being-paid">vocal critic of crypto</a>.



Warren's stance on cryptocurrency has been a polarizing issue, with proponents accusing her of stifling innovation through excessive regulation, while her supporters argue that tighter controls are necessary to curb fraud and environmental harm.



Armstrong's remarks come amid increasing scrutiny of regulatory policies under the Biden administration, with crypto advocates pointing to what they see as overreach by agencies <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/11/42131449/with-gary-gensler-preparing-to-quit-in-2025-secs-crypto-cases-likely-to-quietly-go-away-amid-trumps-pro-bitcoin-stance-says-pantera-capitals-katrina-paglia">like the SEC</a>.

Coinbase's Armstrong: Warren Was Involved In 'One Of The Most Unethical, Un-American Things In The Biden Administration'

President-elect Donald Trump has nominated <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/24/11/42077935/trump-picks-dr-oz-who-says-seniors-should-give-medical-marijuana-a-try-to-lead-centers-for-medicare-and-medicaid-services">Dr. Mehmet Oz</a> to lead the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), sparking conversations about potential changes to Medicare. This key agency oversees health programs for over 160 million Americans, including Medicare, Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program.

<li>Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/1milsaved"> The percentage may shock you</a>.</li>
</ul>



Dr. Oz, best known for his TV show and controversial medical advice, is a vocal proponent of expanding Medicare Advantage (MA), the private alternative to traditional Medicare.&nbsp;



How could his nomination impact Medicare beneficiaries – particularly in regard to their costs and benefits?



Dr. Oz has long championed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/10/41570507/medicare-advantage-shake-up-how-health-insurance-plans-could-change-for-up-to-44-000-new-hampshi">Medicare Advantage</a>, which allows seniors to opt for private plans instead of traditional Medicare. These plans often appeal to enrollees with lower premiums and additional perks like dental, hearing and gym memberships. However, they come with trade-offs, such as limited provider networks and prior authorization requirements that can delay or deny care.

Currently, 54% of Medicare enrollees are in Advantage plans, which could grow under Oz's leadership. Some experts speculate that Oz might push to make MA the default choice for new enrollees, as suggested in the conservative Heritage Foundation&#8217;s Project 2025 report.



"When plans are paid more, that does seem to result in more generous benefits for Medicare Advantage enrollees," Matthew Fiedler of the Brookings Institution told Yahoo Finance. However, critics warn that this could strain Medicare's finances.



In announcing Oz's nomination, Trump stated that TV doctors would reduce &#8220;waste and fraud&#8221; in Medicare, which costs the government billions annually. According to the Government Accountability Office (GAO), improper payments in Medicare and Medicaid exceeded $100 billion in 2023. Addressing these issues could help extend Medicare's solvency, especially as its trust fund faces potential depletion by 2036.



Trending: Warren Buffett once said, "If you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die."<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/warren-buffet-make-money-when-you-sleep"> Here&#8217;s how you can earn passive income with just $100.</a>



Yet, experts are skeptical about significant changes targeting Medicare Advantage, which some studies suggest leads to overpayments and excessive profits for insurers. The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget estimated that Medicare Advantage overpayments could cost taxpayers up to $1.6 trillion over the next decade.



<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/24/11/42077057/trump-picks-dr-oz-as-centers-for-medicare-and-medicaid-services-administrator">Oz and Trump</a> have expressed a desire to make prescription drugs more affordable. While Oz has discussed streamlining clinical trials to cut costs, it remains unclear if he would support provisions from the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), such as Medicare's $2,000 cap on out-of-pocket drug expenses.



Trending: Many are using this retirement income calculator to check if they&#8217;re on pace —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-do-i-calculate-my-retirement-income-adv"> here&#8217;s a breakdown on what&#8217;s behind this formula.</a>



Although some Republicans advocate repealing the IRA, most experts believe the cap on drug costs will remain untouched. "Nobody's going to mess with the $2,000 cap," says elder advocate Bob Blancato at the Gerontological Society of America (GSA) conference before Oz was nominated.



Oz's leadership could mean expanded access to Medicare Advantage plans for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/10/41257459/biden-administration-unveils-plan-to-provide-generic-drugs-for-2-to-medicare-recipients">Medicare beneficiaries</a>, potentially offering more perks but with stricter provider networks. However, these changes might also increase costs for taxpayers and the traditional Medicare program in the long term.



Ultimately, whether Dr. Oz can deliver on promises to cut waste and fraud while maintaining or improving benefits remains to be seen. Seniors and policymakers alike will be watching closely as his tenure unfolds. Understanding these potential changes can help you make informed decisions about your health care options.&nbsp;

Trump Says Dr. Oz Will Cut 'Waste And Fraud' In Medicare – Experts Are Skeptical, But What Does This Mean For Your Health Care Costs?

Nvidia Corporation CEO Jensen Huang once admitted that while he doesn't &#8220;love&#8221; every day of his job, his persistence has been key to building a company now valued at over $3 trillion.



What Happened: In May earlier this year, during a fireside chat, Huang conversed with Patrick Collison, the co-founder and CEO of Stripe, a multinational financial services and software as a service (SaaS) company.



During the conversation, Huang contested the popular belief that a career should always bring happiness. He said that creating something exceptional is challenging and does not always result in joy.&nbsp;



&#8220;I don&#8217;t love every day of my job, I don&#8217;t think every day brings me joy, nor does joy have to be the definition of a good day,&#8221; he stated, adding, &#8220;Every day I&#8217;m not happy, every year I&#8217;m not happy about the company but I love the company every single second.&#8221;

He further argued that the best jobs are not always those that bring constant happiness. &#8220;You have to suffer, you have to struggle, you have to endeavor &#8230; to really appreciate what you&#8217;ve done,&#8221; Huang elaborated.



He concluded by wishing others greatness, which, in his view, means wishing them &#8220;plenty of pain and suffering.&#8221;

Why It Matters: According <a href="https://www.forbes.com/profile/jensen-huang/">to</a> Forbes, Huang currently has a net worth of $118.2 billion, making him number 11 on the list of the world's richest people.



His wealth largely stems from his about 3% stake in Nvidia, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/24/08/40635978/if-you-invested-1-000-in-nvidia-stock-at-ipo-heres-how-much-youd-have-now">which went public</a> on Jan. 22, 1999. He co-founded the Santa Clara-based chip and AI company with Chris Malachowsky and Curtis Priem, on April 5, 1993.



The company surpassed the $1 trillion market capitalization level in May 2023, becoming one of the most valuable companies globally. This growth trajectory continued this year, as Nvidia exceeded $2 trillion and a $3 trillion market cap, even briefly becoming the world's most valuable company.

Jensen Huang Says He Doesn't 'Love' Every Day Of His Job. Here's How The Nvidia Boss Created A Company Worth Over $3 Trillion Today

Palantir Technologies Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) has experienced a remarkable rise, achieving a 298.37% year-to-date return as of Thursday morning. This surge has sparked interest in ETFs with significant exposure to Palantir.



According to&nbsp;<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, the&nbsp;Global X Defense Tech ETF&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHLD#NYSE">SHLD</a>) holds 7.82% of its portfolio in Palantir stock, amounting to&nbsp;$51.85 million across 1.24 million&nbsp;shares. SHLD, which combines Palantir&#8217;s defense and intelligence sector presence with other aerospace and defense players, has seen a 40.86% YTD return.



Meanwhile,&nbsp;ARK Innovation ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#NYSE">ARKK</a>)&nbsp;has allocated nearly 5% of&nbsp;its portfolio to Palantir, with over $273 million invested in 6.53 million shares.

Palantir's YTD Returns Surge 298%: Here's How ETFs With Exposure To Alex Karp's Company Have Performed

For many Americans across the country, today (Thursday) means meals with families to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/broad-u-s-equity-etfs/23/11/35930411/is-the-stock-market-closed-on-thanksgiving-traders-prepare-for-a-holiday-break" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday</a>.



One topic of conversation that has likely come up in recent years at holiday family gatherings is cryptocurrency. Here&#8217;s a look at how crypto has performed since last year&#8217;s Thanksgiving.



What Happened:&nbsp;The Thanksgiving Day holiday for many includes traditions such as family, food <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports/24/11/42226470/heres-why-the-detroit-lions-dallas-cowboys-always-have-thanksgiving-day-nfl-games">and football</a>. Dinner conversations could center on school, work, politics and potentially investments like stocks&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/crypto" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">and cryptocurrencies.</a>



The cryptocurrency markets were riding high in November 2021 when Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) and Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) hit then all-time highs and Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) was also up significantly from the start of the year.



Family members discussing cryptocurrency that year were likely either supporting a further move up or questioning if investments in crypto were risky.



Family members who tried to talk their relatives into buying cryptocurrencies that year have likely received some questions from relatives in the past year or so with the sector facing high volatility and items such as cryptocurrency bankruptcies sending the price of major cryptocurrencies down in 2022.



As&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/22/11/29846094/so-you-told-your-family-to-invest-in-bitcoin-dogecoin-and-ethereum-at-thanksgiving-last-ye" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga previously shared</a>, investing in Bitcoin, Dogecoin and Ethereum on Thanksgiving Day 2021 would have been down 72.3%, 64.6% and 72.5%, respectively a year later.



A $3,000 investment split between the three leading cryptocurrencies would have been down 69.8% to $905.69 from Thanksgiving 2021 to Thanksgiving 2022.



Family members who were convinced to buy cryptocurrency on Thanksgiving Day 2022 or Thanksgiving Day 2023 might have a more favorable attitude towards their crypto friendly relatives.

Investing $1,000 in BTC, DOGE, ETH: If a relative did end up convinced and decided to invest in cryptocurrency for the first time on Thanksgiving Day 2023, they have been blessed with a good entry point.



Here's a look at how investments would have fared over the last nearly one-year period, investing $1,000 in each of Bitcoin, Dogecoin and Ethereum.



A $1,000 investment in Bitcoin on Thanksgiving 2023 could have purchased 0.0266 BTC. The investment would be worth $2,563.18 today based on a price of $96,360.02 at the time of writing. The investment would be up 156.3% since the holiday last year.



A $1,000 investment in Dogecoin on Thanksgiving 2023 could have purchased 13,097.92 DOGE. The investment would be worth $5,261.43 today based on a price of $0.4017 at the time of writing. The investment would be up 426.1% since the holiday last year.



A $1,000 investment in Ethereum on Thanksgiving 2023 could have purchased 0.4789 ETH. The investment would be worth $1,742.85 today based on a price of $3,639.28 at the time of writing. The investment would be up 74.3% since the holiday last year.



In total, a $3,000 investment in the three well-known and discussed cryptocurrencies would be worth $9,567.46 today, up 218.9%



For comparison a $1,000 investment in the&nbsp;SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust,&nbsp;which tracks the S&amp;P 500 stock market index, would be worth $1,311.44 and up 31.1% from Thanksgiving 2023 to Thanksgiving 2024.



The returns from 2023 to now outpaced the gains from both 2021 to 2022 and 2022 to 2023.



Last year, Benzinga shared that the returns of Bitcoin, Dogecoin and Ethereum from Thanksgiving 2022 to Thanksgiving 2023 would have been up 123.3%, down 9.2% and up 70.5% respectively. The $3,000 investment from Thanksgiving 2022 to Thanksgiving 2023 would have been worth $4,846.24 and up 61.5%.



The huge returns over the last year could have crypto investors smiling plenty at the Thanksgiving Day dinner table Thursday.

Trump Media (DJT) Shares Fall Over 11% Post-Election, Oscillates Around Key Moving Averages: Technical Indicators Point Toward Period Of Consolidation

James Howells might go down in history books as one of the unluckiest people ever, having discarded hundreds of millions of dollars in Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) accidentally.



But a new twist in this decade-old bizarre saga revealed that it was not him but his ex-girlfriend who unintentionally threw the fortune away. 



What Happened: Halfina Eddy-Evans <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14117759/threw-away-569million-Bitcoin-fortune-council-tip.html">confessed</a> during&nbsp;a Monday interview with the Daily&nbsp;Mail&nbsp;that she threw away the&nbsp;hard drive containing 8,000 Bitcoin&nbsp;at the request of Howells. She was adamant that the loss was not her fault, as she did so at Howells&#8217; request.



Halfina said Howells &#8220;begged&#8221; her to dispose of some &#8220;unwanted belongings,&#8221; in a black sack, which, unknown to her, included the hard drive.



&#8220;I thought he should be running his errands, not me, but I did it to help out,&#8221; Howells said.



Halfina said that the blame for losing Bitcoins shouldn&#8217;t be fixed on her, though she hoped Howells would succeed in retrieving the drive.

Why It Matters: This revelation added a new layer to the unfortunate story of Howells, who has been waging a long battle to recover his fortune. 



A Wales-based software engineer, Howells, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41308908/man-who-accidentally-threw-hard-drive-containing-8-000-bitcoins-worth-half-a-billion-dolla">sued the Newport City Council </a>for approximately $647 million in damages for repeatedly denying his request to excavate the landfill site housing the discarded hard drive.



He has even assembled a team of specialists to excavate at no cost to the council and proposed giving the council 10% of the recovered coins' value.



The 8,000 Bitcoins would be worth $797 million at the all-time high price of 99,645 recorded recently and $765.9 million at the current market price of $95.736.86.

Remember James Howells Who Lost His Hard Drive With 8,000 Bitcoins Now Worth $760M? His Ex-Girlfriend Reveals It Was She Who Threw It Away

Billionaire entrepreneur and &#8220;Shark Tank&#8221; host Mark Cuban has offered his services to Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/department-of-government-efficiency">Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)</a> in a bid to cut federal healthcare costs.



What Happened: On Wednesday, Cuban responded to a user on X, formerly Twitter, who asked if his company, Cost Plus Drugs, could be integrated into government healthcare programs to help cut costs.



In response to the user, Cuban said "Both know how to reach me," referring to Musk and Ramaswamy.



The user's request was about DOGE, an agency led by Musk and Ramaswamy, which aims to drive cost-saving reforms within the federal bureaucracy.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Both know how to reach me. <a href="https://t.co/Jl9gYpZAYs">https://t.co/Jl9gYpZAYs</a>&mdash; Mark Cuban (@mcuban) <a href="https://twitter.com/mcuban/status/1861524965750661386?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 26, 2024</a></blockquote><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
</div></figure>



Why It Matters: With healthcare costs continuing to rise, especially prescription drug prices, there is growing interest in alternatives to the traditional pharmaceutical distribution system.



Cuban's pharma company, launched in 2022, was founded to reduce the cost of prescription drugs by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/02/30672271/mark-cuban-aims-to-disrupt-a-365-billion-industry-with-the-only-startup-that-bears-his-name">cutting out intermediaries</a> in the pharmaceutical supply chain. 



The company's transparent pricing model provides consumers with generic medications at a much lower cost than traditional methods.



If DOGE partners with Cuban's company, it could potentially bring these cost-saving measures to federal healthcare programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid.



Last year in June, a social media user questioned Cuban why his company, Cost Plus Drugs, doesn't offer Ivermectin, citing a stark price disparity between Africa and the U.S. 



At the time, Musk chimed in saying, "Good question," to which Cuban responded, explaining that his company couldn't secure a competitive price for Ivermectin but offered Hydroxychloroquine as an alternative.



He also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/12/36231355/mark-cubans-cost-plus-drugs-gets-medication-elon-musk-asked-about-6-months-ago-still-ready-to-save-t">suggested Musk explore Cost Plus Drugs</a> to save his employees and companies significant money.



Six months later, Cuban updated Musk, announcing that Ivermectin was now available on Cost Plus Drugs, reiterating the potential savings for Tesla Inc., SpaceX, and X employees, and inviting Musk's team to reach out for collaboration.



For anyone hoping to invest in a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/01/36836747/mark-cuban-talks-elon-musk-dei-health-care-investments-buying-twitter-and-more-in-an-x-ama">future IPO of Cost Plus Drug Company</a>, Cuban earlier this year stated that it's &#8220;Not going to happen. Maximizing profits is not our goal.&#8221;



According <a href="https://www.fortunebusinessinsights.com/prescription-drugs-market-102709">to</a> Fortune Business Insights, in 2023, the global prescription drug market&#8217;s value reached approximately $1,162.61 billion, with North America contributing a significant share, estimated at $576.35 billion.



The iShares U.S. Healthcare Providers ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IHF#NYSE">IHF</a>) ended Wednesday&#8217;s session up by 0.24% at $54.40. Year-to-date, it has gained 1.8%, according to <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/lxquj26b2sag" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro data</a>.
