CNBC Daily Open: Turbulence in economy forces United Airlines to offer 2 earnings forecasts

China’s first-quarter gross domestic product expanded by 5.4%, higher than expected. Beijing replaced its vice minister of commerce, who also holds the role of top trade official. U.S. markets fell slightly as the VIX index pulled back from a high. Nvidia will take a quarterly charge of about $5.5 billion tied to exporting H20 graphics processing units to China. United Airlines took an unusual step of offering two earnings outlooks. The U.S. retail sales report, out Wednesday, could be deceptive.Airplanes are one of the few modes of transport that get you from your place of origin to your destination in a mostly straight line. But United Airlines, one of the biggest carriers in the U.S., doesn’t have the luxury of a direct route when it comes to predicting its finances. The airline on Tuesday offered two full-year earnings estimates: One is its original stemming from January; the other, a newly revised forecast if there is a recession.On the one hand, it’s an acknowledgement that it’s impossible to predict the economy — think about how many analysts were certain a recession would strike the U.S. in 2023. On the other, it’s uncommon for companies to do so, reflecting the heightened volatility in the economy because of U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration.In markets, however, volatility seems to be subsiding for now, according to the CBOE Volatility Index, or the VIX, which is seen as Wall Street’s “fear gauge.” Stocks retreated Tuesday, but they were marginal drops compared with the huge plunges the last week. The journey now, then, is relatively smoother, but as United Airlines’ unusual move suggests, turbulence could still be ahead.What you need to know todayChina’s economy heats upChina’s economy expanded by 5.4% in the first quarter, according to data from National Statistics Bureau on Wednesday, higher than the 5.1% growth expected in a Reuters poll. Better-than-expected retail sales and industrial output boosted China’s economy. The former rose by 5.9% year on year in March, sharply beating analysts’ estimates for a 4.2% growth, while industrial output expanded by 7.7% from a year earlier, higher than median estimates of 5.8%.New appointee for China’s top trade jobOn Wednesday, China appointed Li Chenggang as vice minister of commerce and as a top representative for international trade negotiation, according to an official statement. That makes Li a key personnel as Beijing confronts a growing trade war with the U.S., in which talks or concessions have yet to occur. Li replaces Wang Shouwen, who previously occupied both roles.Nvidia to take $5.5 billion chargeNvidia shares fell around 6% in extended trading after the company said Tuesday that it will take a quarterly charge of about $5.5 billion tied to exporting H20 graphics processing units to China and other destinations. On April 9, the U.S. government told Nvidia it would require a license to export the chips to China and a handful of other countries, the company said in a filing. The H20 is an AI chip for China that was designed to comply with U.S. export restrictions.Volatility in U.S. markets retreatsU.S. stocks slipped Tuesday. The S&P 500 dropped 0.17%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 0.38% and the Nasdaq Composite was down a marginal 0.05%. The VIX fell to about 30 after hitting a high of around 60 last week. Asia-Pacific markets fell Wednesday. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index lost more than 2.3%, leading losses in the region. Declines of over 4% in Chinese tech giants like Meituan, Alibaba and Kuaishou Technology dragged down the index.Earnings estimates in a recessionUnited Airlines reported earnings on Tuesday, and took an unusual step of offering two earnings outlooks. The company left intact expectations issued in January, but also provided earnings estimates in the event of a recession. “The Company’s outlook is dependent on the macro environment which the Company believes is impossible to predict this year with any degree of confidence,” it said in a securities filing.[PRO] U.S. retail report could be deceptiveThe U.S. retail sales report, out Wednesday, should look solid as consumers are still spending money. Economists are also expecting a healthy growth reading. The details, though, likely will tell a different story. Here’s why investors should not be taken in by the headline number, wrote CNBC’s Jeff Cox.And finally...Bloomberg | Bloomberg | Getty ImagesTakeshi Niinami, CEO and chairman of Suntory Holdings at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, on Jan. 24, 2025.Tokyo has ‘many cards’ to play in U.S. tariff negotiations, says Japanese economic advisorJapan has “many cards” to play in tariff negotiations with the United States, according to Takeshi Niinami, senior economic advisor to Japan’s prime minister.Niinami pointed out that Japan has been the biggest foreign investor in the U.S. and the largest foreign holder of U.S. Treasury bonds. Japan should therefore talk about more opportunities to invest in the United States, and will keep its massive stock of U.S. Treasurys, he said, adding “We know that the President is [very concerned] over the bond market,” referring to U.S. President Donald Trump.His comments comes ahead of a three-day trip by top negotiator Ryosei Akazawa to the U.S. for talks with U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer.

While AI Could Be the Game Changer in Predicting Health Outcomes It Should Not Be the Only Method

With the advent of artificial intelligence (AI), predictive medicine is becoming an important part of healthcare, especially in cancer treatment. Predictive medicine uses algorithms and data to help doctors understand how a cancer might continue to grow or react to specific drugs--making it easier to target precision treatment for individual patients. Now, with the two commentaries just out, researchers at the Institute for Genome Sciences at the University of Maryland School of Medicine set a foundational approach to generating, analyzing, and ethically sharing data to benefit both patients and science.

Mexican govt negotiating with states about water they can send to US under deal, Sheinbaum says

Mexico's government is negotiating an agreement with states in the north of the country to determine how much water they can send to the United States to help make up its shortfall under a treaty that has strained U.S. relations, President Claudia Sheinbaum said in a morning press conference Tuesday. The 81-year-old water-sharing treaty with the U.S. has prompted tariff threats by President Donald Trump. Under the 1944 treaty that outlines water-sharing between the two countries through a network of interconnected dams and reservoirs, Mexico must send 1.75 million acre-feet of water to the U.S. from the Rio Grande every five years.

Gold's Breakout Year in 2025: How Strategic Miners Are Capitalizing on the Surge

Equity Insider News CommentaryIssued on behalf of Lake Victoria Gold Ltd.VANCOUVER, BC, April 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- With gold recently breaking above $3,200 per ounce, major banks are revising their forecasts even higher—UBS now sees gold hitting $3,500, while Deutsche Bank is targeting $3,700. As economic uncertainty continues to escalate, gold's parabolic price action is drawing renewed attention from investors looking for safe havens and inflation protection. Many are turning to physical bullion and gold ETFs, but a growing number are also eyeing gold mining stocks, which can offer amplified exposure to rising gold prices. Amid this momentum, several gold-focused companies are generating fresh interest, including Lake Victoria Gold (TSXV:LVG) (OTCQB:LVGLF), Integra Resource Corp. (NYSE-American: ITRG) (TSXV:ITR), GoldMining Inc. (NYSE-American: GLDG), Freegold Ventures Limited (TSX:FVL) (OTCQX:FGOVF), and Vox Royalty Corp. (NASDAQ:VOXR) (TSX:VOXR). Gold mining stocks have been steadily gaining ground alongside the precious metal's historic run. While large-cap miners have seen their stock prices pop off, several junior exploration companies are also making headlines with encouraging drill results that could signal major upside potential.Lake Victoria Gold (TSXV:LVG) (OTCQB:LVGLF), an emerging East African gold developer, recently secured four new Mining Licenses at its Tembo Project in northern Tanzania, marking a major step forward in its development strategy."The approval of our Mining Licenses is a pivotal step forward for the Tembo Project," said Marc Cernovitch, President & CEO of Lake Victoria Gold. "We have always believed in the district-scale potential of this asset. With tenure now secured for the next 10 years, we can focus on evaluating the most efficient development options to unlock maximum shareholder value."Situated in Tanzania's well-known Lake Victoria Goldfield, Lake Victoria Gold's (LVG) flagship project has already attracted more than US$28 million in exploration investment, including the completion of 50,000 meters of diamond and reverse circulation (RC) drilling. This depth of historical work provides a robust technical foundation and positions the project with a meaningful head start compared to earlier-stage peers.The recent conversion of LVG's Prospecting License into four Mining Licenses represents a major step forward, significantly reducing regulatory uncertainty and paving the way for focused development planning. Each Mining License is valid for an initial 10-year term and includes an option for an additional 10-year renewal, offering long-term operational visibility.With extensive exploration data already in hand, the company has identified three high-priority targets within the Tembo Project area. These zones are showing encouraging gold grades and carry the hallmarks of potential resource growth as the project enters its next phase of advancement.At the Ngula 1 target, drilling has outlined a broad, mineralized corridor roughly 250 meters wide and extending at least 600 meters in length—open in both directions and at depth. This structural zone hosts multiple gold-bearing veins, with notable intercepts like 3.13 grams per tonne (g/t) of gold over 25.89 meters and an especially compelling interval of 22.18 g/t over 15 ...Full story available on Benzinga.com

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg considered spinning off Instagram from Facebook in 2018: FTC trial

U.S. stocks gyrated on Tuesday, as investors analyzed the latest batch of first-quarter earnings reports and enjoyed a recent decline in market turmoil.The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 106 points, or 0.3%. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite each slid 0.1%. The three averages are coming off back-to-back winning sessions.Tuesday’s muted moves were in stark contrast to the volatile swings seen in recent sessions. The Cboe Volatility Index (VIX), known as Wall Street’s “fear gauge,” fell below 30 after hitting a high of around 60 last week.Bank of America and Citigroup added more than 4% and 2%, respectively, after exceeding analyst expectations for the first quarter. Bank stocks as a whole provided upward momentum, with the SPDR S&P Bank ETF (KBE) rising nearly 2%.Other major reports due this week include United Airlines and Netflix. Beyond earnings, Boeing shares slipped close to 2% after Bloomberg reported that Beijing ordered Chinese airlines not to take more of the company’s planes.Stocks received a tailwind into this week after guidance on Friday from U.S. Customs and Border Protection revealed exemptions from “reciprocal” tariffs for electronic products such as smartphones, computers and semiconductors. Still, comments from President Donald Trump and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick on Sunday suggested these exemptions might only be temporary.Despite recent gains, the three major indexes are still clawing back losses seen in the wake of Trump’s original tariff announcement on April 2. The Dow and Nasdaq have each slid more than 3%, while the S&P 500 has dropped more than 4%.“The worst-case scenario is off the table,” said Larry Tentarelli, founder of the Blue Chip Daily Trend Report. But, “the problem is we could get a headline at any time and the market goes down 3%.”Market isn’t ‘out of the woods yet’ with volatility around tariffs, Piper Sandler says Stocks may be due for more chaotic moves with tariff uncertainty, according to Piper Sandler.“Technically, we are ‘not out of the woods yet,’ as we’d like to see the SPX recover its March lows and make another ascent toward its 50-/200-day MAs at around 5,750-5,800,” analyst Craig Johnson wrote in a Tuesday note. “Investors are returning to the equity market despite the crosscurrents in the macro picture.”“We expect investors to temporarily shift their attention to earnings and away from tariffs, allowing the macro picture to settle down in the upcoming weeks,” he continued.— Sean ConlonInvestor Josh Brown buys NetflixBeata Zawrzel | Nurphoto | Getty ImagesNetflix is the best stock to withstand an economic slowdown, according to buyer Josh Brown.“I actually think it’s the best stock in the market for this year,” the Ritholtz Wealth Management CEO said Tuesday on CNBC’s “Halftime Report.”“That doesn’t mean I think it’ll go up the most, but I am not on the hunt for the hardest-hit stocks to try to bottom fish,” he continued. “I’m looking for resilience, because I think in a defensive bear market, that’s the number one quality of the stocks that by year-end will have performed the best.”Read the full story here.— Sarah Min ‘Rubber will have to meet the road,’ Mahoney Asset Management CEO saysWhile President Donald Trump’s pause on many of his tariffs lifted the market recently, Ken Mahoney, CEO of Mahoney Asset Management, still expects challenges ahead.“Big money may be looking to sell all rallies, as we still overall are in bearish conditions,” Mahoney told CNBC.Mahoney said the market is likely still trending downward, though that may not yet be apparent to investors.“At some point this rally will be tested and pullback,” he added. “That is where the rubber will have to meet the road to see the true trend of the market.”— Alex HarringGold miners hit highest level since 2012The VanEck Gold Miners ETF (GLD) advanced 0.6% Tuesday, reaching its highest point since Nov. 2012.Some of the companies in the fund at new 52-week highs include Alamos Gold, AngloGold, Agnico Eagle and Endeavour Mining.The surge higher comes as gold prices have surged in 2025, due to a surge in safe-haven demand as President Donald Trump’s tariff policies spark uncertainty in the market.— Hakyung Kim, Gina FrancollaThe economy will stabilize going forward from here, says chief investment officerWhile lingering tariff uncertainty has taken stocks for a downward ride over the past few weeks, BMO Wealth Management’s chief investment officer believes the fundamental market backdrop still looks relatively solid.“Right now, I do think what we see is some strength in consumer ... we actually think consumer spending will hold up reasonably well,” Yung-Yu Ma said on CNBC’s “Money Movers” on Tuesday morning. “We actually think the environment going forward, after we’ve gotten through this rough patch, is reasonably stable.”The CIO added that the labor market may see some near-term softness, but will ultimately remain relatively healthy by summertime. Ma also believes investors are perhaps too pessimistic on their earnings revision for the upcoming earnings season.“I think there was some additional caution,” he said. “There were some revisions that were more based on uncertainty pulling down the revisions rather than actual commentary or economic data that was coming in.”— Lisa Kailai HanTrump has not ‘made a determination’ on raising corporate tax rate, White House saysWhite House press secretary Karoline Leavitt on Tuesday indicated that Trump could be open to raising the corporate tax rate to help pay for cuts elsewhere.“I don’t believe the president has made a determination on whether he supports it or not,” Leavitt said when asked about the idea.The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, enacted during Trump’s first stint in the presidency, is set to expire at the end of this year. Negotiations over extending or changing those policies are expected to be a prominent focus in Washington, D.C., in the months ahead.— Jesse PoundJamie Dimon urges Washington to engage with ChinaMike Segar | ReutersJamie Dimon, Chairman and CEO of JPMorgan Chase & Co., speaks to the Economic Club of New York in Manhattan, New York City, on April 23, 2024.JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon urged the White House to engage in negotiations with China before Trump’s trade war escalates further.“I don’t think there’s any engagement right now ... it doesn’t have to wait a year. It could start tomorrow,” he said in an interview with the Financial Times.His comment came after Trump excluded China in his 90-day pause of sweeping tariffs. China struck back with 125% tariffs on U.S. goods after Trump’s latest executive order boosted tariffs on Beijing to 125%, stacked on top of a combined 20% fentanyl-related tariff imposed in February and March.“We should be careful. I don’t think anyone should assume they have a divine right to success and therefore don’t worry about it,” Dimon said.— Yun LiShort-term market trend is to downside, Wolfe Research saysThe market could be in for more pain, according to Wolfe Research.“We continue to believe that the near-term trend is to the downside,” Chris Senyek, the firm’s chief investment strategist, wrote to clients Tuesday.Senyek said “peak fear” tied to Trump’s tariff policy rollout is likely now in the rearview mirror. However, he said to expect more uncertainty during the so-called pause on many levies for 90 days, as well as the continued trend of the market being sensitive to any updates on trade policy.— Alex HarringHealth-care stocks drag on marketShares of health-care names restricted the S&P 500 on Tuesday.The S&P 500 sector slid nearly 1% midday. By comparison, the broad index flickered around flat.Molina Healthcare and Zimmer Biomet led the index lower, with both dropping more than 3%. Moderna was also among the biggest losers, posting a decline of around 3%.Pfizer and DexCom were among the stocks bucking the downtrend, as both names rose more than 1%.— Alex HarringStocks making the biggest moves midday TuesdayBrendan McDermid | ReutersA screen displays the logo for Boeing on the floor at the New York Stock Exchange on April 2, 2025.Check out the companies making headlines in midday trading:Hewlett Packard Enterprise — The cloud services company saw shares jump 5% after news that Elliott Management has taken a $1.5 billion stake in the company.

The bank posted earnings of 90 cents per share on revenue of $27.51 billion. Analysts polled by LSEG had called for earnings of 82 cents per share on revenue of $26.99 billion.

Wells Fargo, Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs were also among the financial institutions advancing.— Alex HarringVolatility index falls below 30The CBOE Volatility Index, or VIX, fell again on Tuesday, breaking below the 30 level to about 28.49. The index, which measures implied volatility based on S&P 500 options pricing, was trading above 50 just a week ago.The index is often referred to as Wall Street’s “fear gauge.” In recent years, it has typically traded below 20 during calm market periods.“We believe ‘peak fear’ is likely past us as capitulation levels for indicators such as the VIX and Put/Call ratio were reached within the throes of the selloff,” Chris Senyek of Wolfe Research said in a note to clients Tuesday.— Jesse PoundHP Enterprise shares jump after Elliott takes stakeSopa Images | Lightrocket | Getty ImagesHewlett Packard Enterprise shares jumped nearly 7% after news that Elliott Management has taken a $1.5 billion stake in the company.Elliott Management hopes to engage the company in discussions on how to improve shareholder value, a source familiar with the matter told CNBC.— Yun LiSteve Eisman says he has reduced risk as tariff negotiations could take monthsSteve Eisman of “The Big Short” fame said he has reduced risk in his portfolio as he believes Trump’s tariffs could be an overhang for the market for months.“I’ve taken some risk down in my personal portfolio, and I’m waiting,” Eisman said on CNBC’s “Squawk Box” on Tuesday. “I think we’re going to have volatility for quite a while. The Trump administration has set up a situation where negotiating with multiple countries or multiple issues are going to take a couple of leads. It could take a few months.”The former Neuberger Berman senior portfolio manager and “The Eisman Playbook” host said stocks such as Nvidia and Apollo have very strong fundamentals and could be long-term winners.— Yun LiStocks are little changedStocks traded within striking distance of flat as Tuesday’s trading day kicked off.The Dow and Nasdaq Composite ticked higher by 0.1% each shortly after 9:30 a.m. ET.

The reading was better than the -12.4 level forecast by Dow Jones.However, the general business condition index for expected activity six months ahead tumbled 20.1 points to -7.4.

These Six Games Are Leaving Game Pass At The End Of April 2025

These Six Games Are Leaving Game Pass At The End Of April 2025

GodspeedMicrosoft has announced six titles will be leaving the Game Pass library at the end of this month, headlined by Sniper Elite 5. The shooter originally launched in 2022 and showed that taking out Nazis from long range hasn't gotten old. The most recent entry in the series, Sniper Elite: Resistance, is still available on the service. Have a Nice Death will also be heading for the exits, too. The indie roguelite came out in March 2022 and has players assuming the role of Death. Unfortunately, Death's subordinates are out of control, so putting them back in their place is the name of the game in the side-scrolling action game.Two other notable titles on this list include The Last Case of Benedict Fox and Thirsty Suitors. The former is a metroidvania game focusing on the titular detective, while the latter mashes up turn-based flirting, skateboarding, and cooking. This combo comes together quite well, according to GameSpot's Thirsty Suitors review.Kona II: Brume and The Rewinder round out the titles leaving the subscription service later this month. Don't forget that Game Pass members can purchase all of these titles for 20% off until they leave on April 30.In addition, Microsoft is also adding new titles to Game Pass over the coming weeks, including Neon White tomorrow and 2022's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 on May 1.
