Robinhood Markets Inc&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOOD#NASDAQ">HOOD</a>) equities trading volume surged to a record $5 billion on Tuesday, marking one of the platform&#8217;s biggest days in the past 12 months. This achievement comes amid a resurgence in retail trading, reminiscent of the 2021 meme stock frenzy, where Robinhood played a pivotal role as a favored platform for retail investors.
What Happened: Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev revealed that the trading app had experienced a surge in equities trading volume, reaching a record $5 billion on Tuesday.
He also mentioned that the company would upgrade its systems to accommodate the increasing load, with certain features potentially being temporarily unavailable between 1 a.m. and 3 a.m. ET.

In the <a href="https://investors.robinhood.com/news/news-details/2024/Robinhood-Reports-First-Quarter-2024-Results/default.aspx">first quarter</a>, Robinhood reported a notable surge in options contracts traded, marking a 26% increase year-over-year, totaling 343.6 million contracts. Equally impressive was the 40% year-over-year rise in equity notional trading volumes, reaching $225.0 billion.
Additionally, Robinhood&#8217;s strategic move of offering a 3% retirement transfer match sparked substantial customer adoption. During the promotion period from January to April, customers transferred over $4 billion in retirement assets from competing brokerages, averaging over $90,000 per customer.
 The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38824912/stock-market-interest-is-surging-are-meme-stocks-responsible">resurgence of retail trading</a>, reminiscent of the 2021 meme stock frenzy, is evident as Robinhood emerges as a favored platform among retail traders once again. 
 Popular stocks like GameStop (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GME#NYSE">GME</a>) and AMC Entertainment Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMC#NYSE">AMC</a>) are dominating Wall Street this week, witnessing substantial surges in their stock prices.
Robinhood&#8217;s stock surged sharply this week as social media-driven trading gained momentum. This surge coincided with GameStop&#8217;s remarkable 74% climb, following the return of &#8220;Roaring Kitty&#8221; aka Keith Gill, a prominent retail trader from the 2021 meme stock era, who resumed posting on social media on Sunday.
It&#8217;s worth noting that Robinhood was not publicly traded during the peak of the 2021 meme stock rally, having gone public in July 2021. However, transaction revenue at Robinhood, a key measure of trading activity, had reached its peak during the retail trading saga of 2021, according to Reuters.

This exceeded the Street&#8217;s consensus estimate of $548.6 million.

Amid GameStop, AMC Meme Mania, Robinhood Scores Record $5B Equities Trading Volume — CEO Vlad Tenev Says, 'One Of Our Biggest Days'

Frog-themed meme coin Pepe (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">PEPE</a>) stormed to an all-time high Tuesday, rendering all of its holders in profit at one point in the day.
What Happened: The coin became the largest gainer in the memecoin market in the last 24 hours, and one of the largest in the broader market, with gains of more than 10%, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.&nbsp;
About 98% of its holders were making money at the time of publication, <a href="https://app.intotheblock.com/coin/PEPE">according </a>to IntoTheBlock data, with the figure hitting 100% earlier in the day.
The meme token pipped large-cap cryptocurrencies like Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>), BNB (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/bnb/usd">BNB</a>), and Dogecoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/doge/usd">DOGE</a>) in 24-hour trading volume, totaling $3.8 billion.
The upsurge caught the eye of investors, leading some to fill their bags with PEPE. A trader withdrew more than 407 billion tokens, worth $4.4 million at prevailing market prices, according to Spotonchain. 
The big grab indicated expectations of PEPE's value rising further in the days to come.

Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) proponents might still be optimistic about a spot ETF approval but analysts tracking the developments increased the odds of a rejection by the SEC.
What Happened: Analyzing a March filing submitted by BlackRock Inc. to the SEC over its ETF application, finance lawyer Scott Johnson discovered &#8220;official&#8221; signals of the regulator viewing Ethereum as a security.
The SEC while delaying the approval, also sought public feedback on whether the applicant properly filed its ETF listing proposal as a commodity.

Johnson noted that this question was asked for all the ETF filings and never for any Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) spot/futures ETF product.&nbsp;
"The obvious purpose is to potentially deny on the basis that these spot filings are improperly filed as commodity-based trust shares and do not qualify if they are holding a security," he added.
Responding to his findings, Bloomberg analyst James Seyffart increased the likelihood of a spot ETH ETF rejection, convinced that the regulator was considering the security question for ETH.&nbsp;
Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas entered the discussion as well, emphasizing, "Our odds of approval remain the same: slim to none."
Why It Matters: The SEC is due to decide on VanEck's spot Ether ETF by May 23 &#8211; the final deadline for the first batch of proposals enabling investors to bet on the spot price of the world's second-largest cryptocurrency.&nbsp;
Ethereum&#8217;s status has become the major sticking point, with the SEC <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/04/38520739/consensys-alleges-sec-covertly-targeted-ethereum-sparking-legal-battle">allegedly launching a covert operation</a> to brand the cryptocurrency as a security. A rejection might pose further pain for the asset, already hampered by a sluggish market in recent weeks.
Price Action: At the time of writing, ETH was exchanging hands at $2,888.08, following a 2.16% drop in the last 24 hours, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?_gl=1&#x2A;380nj0&#x2A;_ga&#x2A;MTEyOTAyOTcxMy4xNzEzMzY0NTYy&#x2A;_ga_V7ZK73W7N0&#x2A;MTcxNDk4MzIzMi42LjEuMTcxNDk4OTE0Ni4wLjAuMA..">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

OpenAI Chief Scientist Ilya Sutskever has announced his departure from the company. This development comes after a series of significant events at the artificial intelligence giant.
What Happened: Sutskever, a key member of the company&#8217;s founding team, revealed his decision to leave OpenAI after nearly a decade. He expressed confidence in the company&#8217;s ability to develop artificial general intelligence under the leadership of the current CEO, Sam Altman, and other executives. 
"After almost a decade, I have made the decision to leave OpenAI," Sutskever wrote on X. "The company's trajectory has been nothing short of miraculous."<a href="https://archive.is/o/g4MYb/https://twitter.com/ilyasut/status/1790517455628198322?ref_src=twsrc^tfw&#x7C;twcamp^tweetembed&#x7C;twterm^1790517455628198322&#x7C;twgr^94e06983e93aa4c55de44874a0dc2ee1536f7e26&#x7C;twcon^s1_&amp;ref_url=https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-05-14/openai-chief-scientist-ilya-sutskever-is-leaving-the-company" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"></a>

Altman, in a post on X said, &#8220;Ilya and OpenAI are going to part ways. This is very sad to me.&#8221; He described Sutskever as &#8220;easily one of the greatest minds of our generation, a guiding light of our field, and a dear friend.&#8221; Sutskever has revealed that he is working on a project that is &#8220;very personally meaningful&#8221; for him.
Sutskever&#8217;s position will be assumed by the current Research Director, Jakub Pachocki.

Sutskever, who was initially hired by Elon Musk when the company was established in 2015, played a pivotal role in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/11/35867612/elon-musk-very-worried-about-openai-boardroom-battle-ilya-sutskever-wouldnt-take-such-drastic-action">removal of Altman</a> as CEO in November. However, after Altman&#8217;s reinstatement, Sutskever announced that he would not return to his former position as a board member. The company was reportedly discussing alternative roles for him.

Pachocki, who has been with OpenAI since 2017, will now take over as the new chief scientist. The company has not yet provided any comments on Sutskever&#8217;s departure.
Why It Matters: Sutskever&#8217;s departure comes at a time when OpenAI is making significant strides in the AI industry. The company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38809935/openai-just-dropped-gpt-4o-and-these-10-examples-show-it-could-completely-change-ai-chatbot-game">recently unveiled GPT-4o</a>, a new and improved version of its chatbot, which has the potential to revolutionize the AI chatbot game.
However, Sutskever&#8217;s departure could raise questions about the company&#8217;s future direction, especially given his influential role in OpenAI&#8217;s history. His exit follows a period of speculation about his whereabouts, which arose after the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37814793/sam-altman-laughs-off-speculation-about-openais-ilya-sutskevers-whereabouts-i-really-hope-we-work-to">dramatic ouster</a> of Altman in November. The company&#8217;s future trajectory and its ability to maintain its position as an AI industry leader will be closely watched in the wake of this development.

What Happened: World's largest cryptocurrency, Bitcoin slipped below $62,000, failing to sustain its gains from the previous trading day. 
The market dip triggered $144 million in liquidations in the last 24 hours, with long liquidations touching $114 million. Bitcoin led the pack with $39.5 million in liquidations.&nbsp;
The price drop influenced the derivatives market's sentiment as traders taking short positions on Bitcoin sharply increased vis à vis those gunning for price increases in the last 24 hours.
The negative sentiment permeated as the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported a 0.5% increase in wholesale prices in April, higher than analysts' estimates, lowering expectations of an interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve

Prominent technical analyst Kevin spotted a falling wedge pattern for Bitcoin, noting, "BTC is currently compressed between a ton of support and resistance and it&#8217;s gonna pop one way or the other within days."
The researcher pointed out that an upward breakout from this zone may propel the coin to $68,400, exceeding which could lead to price discovery. To the contrary, a breakout to the downside might see Bitcoin plummeting to $50,000–$52,000.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Dip As Wholesale Prices Breach Estimates: Analyst Explores Possibilities Of A Bitcoin Jump To $68K

YouTube has announced that it will be blocking access to specific videos, following a Hong Kong court order.
What Happened: YouTube, a subsidiary of Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>), will be restricting access to 32 video links in Hong Kong, as per a court ruling. The videos contain content that has been deemed inappropriate by the Hong Kong government, reported Reuters.
The prohibited content includes a protest anthem called &#8220;Glory to Hong Kong,&#8221; which the court believes could be used by dissidents to incite secession.
YouTube expressed its disappointment with the court&#8217;s decision, stating that it could raise doubts about Hong Kong&#8217;s commitment to fostering a digital economy and maintaining a business-friendly environment. The company also mentioned that it is considering its options for an appeal.

The ban will be implemented immediately for viewers in Hong Kong, and the affected videos will eventually be removed from Google Search in the region.
Why It Matters: This move by YouTube is part of a larger trend of tech companies facing challenges related to content censorship and free speech. In April, Elon Musk engaged in a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/04/38477389/elon-musk-take-fight-for-free-speech-abroad-feuds-with-australia-and-brazil-over-content-restric">free speech debate</a> with the governments of Brazil and Australia over their content restrictions. Critics argued that Musk was empowering extremists by selectively challenging cases while complying elsewhere.
Meanwhile, the proposed TikTok ban bill in the U.S. has raised concerns about the potential infringement on the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38353060/us-tiktok-ban-bill-would-trample-on-free-speech-rights-of-170m-americans-says-social-media-giant">free speech rights</a> of American users. TikTok has criticized the bill, stating that it would trample the free speech rights of 170 million Americans.

Google To Comply With Court Order Banning Protest Anthem That Infuriated China  — 'Glory To Hong Kong' To Be Taken Down From YouTube

What Happened: On Tuesday, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) expressed her disapproval of House Speaker Mike Johnson&#8217;s (R-La.) actions amidst former President Donald Trump&#8217;s ongoing hush money trial. Greene suggested that the Speaker should be focusing on defunding Special Counsel for the United States Department of Justice Jack Smith, rather than observing the former president&#8217;s trial.

Marjorie Taylor Greene Slams Mike Johnson For Observing Trump Hush Money Case Instead Of 'Defunding' Jack Smith — Faces Sharp Backlash From X Users

The Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Department of Homeland Security have issued a public alert indicating that foreign terrorist organizations may target LGBTQ events and venues during Pride Month in June, as reported by <a href="https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2024/05/14/fbi-dhs-terror-groups-target-lgbtq-events/73688761007/">USA Today</a> on Friday.
While the joint statement, dated May 10, does not mention any specific threats or intelligence, it highlights the efforts by foreign terrorist organizations to commit or inspire violence against holiday celebrations, including Pride events or LGBTQ-related venues. This is further compounded by the current heightened threat environment in the United States and other western countries.
&#8220;We urge the public to stay vigilant and to promptly report suspicious activity to their local law enforcement,&#8221; said a DHS official, according to the report.
The alert also points out that these foreign groups and their supporters have previously promoted anti-LGBTQ rhetoric and targeted LGBTQ-related events or venues for attacks. &#8220;We continue to work with our partners to evaluate the threat environment, provide updates to the American public, and protect our homeland,&#8221; a DHS official told USA Today.

The FBI, in a statement, assured that it will continue to closely monitor potential threats to public safety and share information with local, state, and federal law enforcement partners.
Authorities also drew attention to the fact that June 12 marks the eighth anniversary of the Pulse Nightclub Orlando shooting, a tragic event that was celebrated by foreign terrorist organization supporters.
Law enforcement officials have urged Pride event organizers and attendees to stay vigilant for violent threats made online, in person, or by mail, and to report any suspicious activity to their local FBI field office.

FBI Warns Of Potential Terrorist Threats To LGBTQ Events During Pride Month: 'Stay Vigilant And Promptly Report Suspicious Activity'

Google&#8216;s parent company, Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>), is making significant strides in artificial intelligence, according to a top analyst.
What Happened: Gene Munster, a tech analyst at Deepwater Asset Management, shared his insights on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38826439/at-google-io-2024-sundar-pichai-and-team-announces-new-gemini-models-project-astra-ai-fraud-protecti">Google&#8217;s I/O 2024</a> keynote in a recent post on X. Munster highlighted three key takeaways from the event.
Firstly, Munster noted that Google is approximately six months behind OpenAI in terms of AI development, but is still about five years ahead of the rest of the industry. He observed that Google&#8217;s AI progress is evident in its generative and agentic AI technologies. 
He wrote, &#8220;They&#8217;re about 6 months behind OpenAI and about 5 years ahead of everyone else.&#8221;

Secondly, Munster pointed out that Google is set to roll out its AI, Gemini, across its entire product lineup, including Search, Photos, Workplace, Gmail, Android, and cameras. This move aligns with Google&#8217;s 2017 declaration of becoming an AI-first company.
Lastly, Munster addressed the potential impact of generative search on Google&#8217;s advertising business. He mentioned that Google is introducing AI Overview, a revamped version of the Search Generative Experience, to all U.S. Google Search users. Despite this significant rollout, Munster noted that Google has not provided specific details on how it plans to monetize this feature.

Why It Matters: The I/O Keynote follows a series of significant developments at Google. Just a day before the I/O Keynote, Munster had predicted that OpenAI could pose a significant challenge to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38806462/googles-search-business-could-be-challenged-by-openai-says-gene-munster-its-a-function-of-time">Google&#8217;s search business</a>. Despite this, the I/O Keynote suggests that Google is making substantial progress in the AI space, potentially strengthening its position against OpenAI.
Moreover, the I/O Keynote also aligns with the expectations of analysts like Justin Patterson who anticipated that the event would reinforce Alphabet&#8217;s meaningful scale and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/05/38825276/google-io-2024-to-spotlight-ai-innovations-and-new-monetization-opportunities-analy">create new monetization opportunities</a> through AI innovations. The widespread rollout of Gemini and the AI Overview feature are in line with this expectation, indicating that Google is actively pursuing new monetization strategies.

Google Is 6 Months Behind ChatGPT-Parent OpenAI In Artificial Intelligence But 'About 5 Years Ahead Of Everyone Else,' Says Gene Munster

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has reportedly supervised the installation of a new tactical missile weapons system.
What Happened: Kim expressed satisfaction with the missile system&#8217;s production progress in the first half of the year. The North Korean leader stressed the importance of meeting this year&#8217;s military production plan, which he believes will significantly enhance the military&#8217;s war readiness, reported Reuters citing KCNA.
According to KCNA, the missile launchers produced during the first half of the year will be placed at western fire strike units responsible for &#8220;important fire strike missions.&#8221;
Kim&#8217;s inspection of the country&#8217;s artillery weapon system and his presence at the test-firing of such weapons occurred just last week.

Biden: New Swing State Poll Reveals Winner, One Key 2024 Election Issue Could Influence Result</a>
Why It Matters: This development is part of a series of military advancements made by North Korea this year. In March, North Korea <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37770000/kim-jong-uns-north-korea-fires-missiles-amid-blinkens-seoul-visit-japan-says-absolutely-unacceptable">fired ballistic missiles</a> into the sea during a visit by U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken to Seoul. This was followed by the successful testing of a solid-fuel engine for a new hypersonic missile, marking a significant step forward in North Korea&#8217;s missile technology.
Then in April, Kim <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38062322/kim-jong-un-supervises-launch-of-difficult-to-intercept-hypersonic-missile-says-north-korea-fully-ca">supervised</a> the launch of a new mid- to long-range solid-fuel, hypersonic missile, as reported by Benzinga. This was followed by the testing of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38776689/kim-jong-un-intensifies-north-koreas-military-arsenal-tests-new-rocket-launch-system-report">new multiple rocket launch system</a> aimed at South Korean population centers.

Kim Jong Un Reportedly Supervises Tactical Missile System Installation Responsible For 'Important Fire Strike Missions'

Major airlines have initiated a lawsuit against a new rule that mandates them to disclose additional fees upfront. This action has elicited a strong reaction from Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.
What Happened: The lawsuit was launched by Airlines for America, a trade association, and several major airlines, including Delta Air Lines (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>), American Airlines (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAL#NASDAQ">AAL</a>), United Airlines (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>), JetBlue Airways Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JBLU#NASDAQ">JBLU</a>), Hawaiian Airlines (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HA#NASDAQ">HA</a>), and Alaska Airlines (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ALK#NYSE">ALK</a>), <a href="https://thehill.com/policy/transportation/4664215-buttigieg-speechless-as-airlines-sue-over-new-fee-rules/">reported</a> The Hill.
The airlines are contesting the new rule, arguing that revealing extra fees before ticket purchase will &#8220;greatly confuse consumers&#8221; and &#8220;complicate the buying process.&#8221;
Buttigieg, however, expressed astonishment at the lawsuit, stating, &#8220;We just issued a rule requiring airlines to inform you, before you buy a ticket, of fees they will charge you. Now, the airline lobby is suing us, saying that if you have the right to that information it will ‘confuse' you. For once, I am speechless."
The Department of Transportation has pledged to &#8220;vigorously defend&#8221; the rule, which is intended to protect consumers from &#8220;hidden junk fees&#8221; and ensure full price transparency before ticket purchase.
The Biden administration finalized the rule last month, with Buttigieg asserting that it will save passengers over half a billion dollars a year in unnecessary or unexpected fees.

The Biden-Harris Administration had previously enforced a rule requiring airlines to swiftly issue automatic cash refunds to passengers. 
In May it was reported that the Biden administration demanded that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/05/38797099/airlines-challenge-biden-administration-over-fee-disclosure-rule-report">airlines disclose</a>, upfront, the fees that they impose on fliers.

Pete Buttigieg Left 'Speechless' After Airlines Sue Biden Administration Over New Fees Regulations

Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter&#8216;s health is deteriorating, as revealed by his grandson, Jason Carter.
What Happened: Jason Carter provided an update on his grandfather&#8217;s health at a mental health forum named after his late grandmother, former first lady Rosalynn Carter, as reported by <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2024/05/14/politics/jimmy-carter-health-update/index.html">CNN</a> on Tuesday. &#8220;He has been in hospice, as you know, for almost a year and a half now, and he really is, I think, coming to the end,&#8221; Jason Carter said.
Jimmy Carter, who is now 99, became the oldest living president in history after the death of George H.W. Bush in 2018. Despite surviving metastatic brain cancer, liver cancer, and numerous health scares, including brain surgery following a fall in 2019, he entered hospice care in February 2023 after multiple hospital stays.
Jason Carter also spoke about the impact of Rosalynn Carter&#8217;s passing on the family and the former president, expressing gratitude for the outpouring of support they received. Rosalynn Carter was a notable advocate for mental health, a cause that continues to be championed by the Carter family.
The former president&#8217;s health has been a subject of widespread attention in recent years, particularly since his entry into hospice care. Despite his declining physical health, Jason Carter affirmed in a CBS interview in February that his grandfather&#8217;s spirit remains &#8220;as strong as ever.&#8221;

Trading Halt: Halted at 7:50:00 p.m. ET - Trading Halt: Halt News Pending

Have you been lifting weights religiously but not seeing those muscles pop the way you want? You might be scratching your head, wondering why, especially after ramping up your workout intensity. Here&#8217;s a heads-up: the secret to muscle growth might not lie in the repetitions or sets you crush at the gym. Instead, it could all boil down to what happens after you stash away those dumbbells and step out of the gym. 
What you do outside your workout sessions can be just as crucial for bulking up as the effort you put in during those sessions. Here are 10 reasons why you&#8217;re probably not seeing the results you want despite hitting the gym as often as you should:
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">You&#8217;re Not Eating Enough</h3>
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/13082533/why-gym-isnt-working-1-1024x576.jpeg" alt="Muscle isn't built just in the gym—it's cooked up in the kitchen too!

Image: Dall-E 3</figcaption></figure>
Muscle magic happens in the kitchen too, not just in the gym. If you skimp on protein, carbs, or healthy fats, you&#8217;re not giving your muscles the fuel they need to grow. Make sure your diet is as strong as your deadlift game.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Your Weights Aren't Heavy Enough</h3>
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/13082823/why-gym-isnt-working-7-1024x576.jpeg" alt="To get bigger, you've got to lift bigger.

To build muscle, you need to keep challenging your body by upping the ante. If you're lifting the same weights you did three weeks ago, it's time to bump up the kilograms!

Find that sweet spot. Hammering your muscles too hard can lead to breakdown, while not pushing them enough means they won't grow. Balance is key, with enough rest and the right amount of challenge.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Your Workout Plan Needs a Revamp</h3>

Mix it up! Ensure your workout targets various muscle groups with exercises that call for compound movements. This way, you engage more muscles in every session.

Muscle building needs consistency. If you&#8217;re missing sessions, you&#8217;re missing out on growth. Set a schedule and stick to it.

Muscles grow when you rest, not when you lift. Give your body enough downtime to repair and grow stronger.

Sometimes, it's about the hand you&#8217;re dealt. Genetics can influence how quickly and easily you pack on muscle, but don't let that be an excuse. You can still make significant gains with the right approach.

Whether it's the shared historical ties or love for freedom, Poland tops the charts as the friendliest place for American tourists.

With deep-rooted political and cultural bonds, it's hardly a shocker that 87% of Israelis have a soft spot for Americans. Only 12% might give you the cold shoulder, but that&#8217;s pretty rare. Israel&#8217;s vibrant cities and historic landscapes make it a perfect spot for Americans looking for a friendly abroad experience.

This African powerhouse has seen a surge in American approval. Although the two countries haven&#8217;t always seen eye to eye historically, most South Africans are pro-American, with the USA&#8217;s favorability rising by 9 points since 2019. South Africa&#8217;s culture and open arms make it a hot spot for U.S. globetrotters.

Despite a 10-point drop from last year, a solid 79% of South Koreans still hold Americans in high regard. The dip from 89% might be tied to shifting global politics, but South Korea remains a welcoming place for Americans, especially with its cutting-edge cities and rich traditions.

Past political tensions haven't stopped 73% of Japanese from favoring Americans. Only 25% might not be as enthusiastic, but that&#8217;s overshadowed by a strong interest in American culture. Japan, on the flip side, offers a unique blend of ultra-modern and traditional, making it an intriguing destination for Americans.

Up, up and away: Space investment in focus as Boeing's Starliner gets ready for blastoff

Warning: LLAP is at high risk of performing badly

<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
Many investors agree&nbsp;that it&rsquo;s&nbsp;wise to &ldquo;sell in May and go away.&rdquo; This age-old Wall Street adage stems from the observation that stock market returns tend to be weaker during the summer months (May through October) compared to the winter months (November through April).&nbsp;This phenomenon is sometimes&nbsp;referred to as&nbsp;the &ldquo;Halloween indicator&rdquo; or the &ldquo;sell in May and go away&rdquo; effect. It suggests that investors should&nbsp;then&nbsp;return in November and continue the cycle.



Historically, this strategy has outperformed the buy-and-hold approach by slight margins.&nbsp;However, since 2020, this wisdom has applied less and less. Selling in May would likely cost you much more in fees and taxes than if you&nbsp;simply&nbsp;held through.&nbsp;In my view,&nbsp;this&nbsp;doesn&rsquo;t necessarily mean there aren&rsquo;t stocks you can profitably sell or short in May.



Many struggling businesses are unlikely to make it out once the storm clears. Selling or shorting such companies is a prudent idea this month. The&nbsp;key&nbsp;difference is that you should sell and never&nbsp;come back&nbsp;to these stocks again. Let&rsquo;s take a look at the seven stocks to sell.



<h2>Bitcoin Depot Inc. (BTM)</h2>



<a href="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/coin-money-bitcoin.jpeg"><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/coin-money-bitcoin-300x169.jpeg" alt="blockchain technology stocks"></a>Bitcoin Depot&rsquo;s (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/btm-stock-quote/">BTM</a>) underlying trends give me pause about the company&rsquo;s future. Wild swings in Bitcoin&rsquo;s (<a href="https://investorplace.com/cryptocurrency/btc-usd/">BTC-USD</a>) price can seriously impact transaction volumes and the profitability of crypto miners.&nbsp;However,&nbsp;you&rsquo;d think that&nbsp;the recent bull run would&rsquo;ve caused at least some&nbsp;level of&nbsp;top-line growth and profits for the past quarters. But revenue is still flat, with margins deeply in the red.



<div><a href="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/chart-7-1.png"><img width="1226" height="796" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/chart-7-1.png" alt="BTM income statement. Stocks to Sell in May"> Click to Enlarge</a><div>Source: Chart courtesy of <a href="https://GuruFocus.com">GuruFocus.com</a></div></div>Also, the &ldquo;crypto winter&rdquo; has led to consolidation in the industry, with major players having their own Bitcoin ATMs. This more competitive landscape may force Bitcoin Depot into an unsustainable price war to hold on to market share.&nbsp;While their mission to make crypto as easy to use as cash is&nbsp;a nice&nbsp;idea,&nbsp;I don&rsquo;t think&nbsp;this company can hold itself together in the long run.



Analysts expect revenue could decline over 10% this year for Bitcoin Depot despite Bitcoin reaching an all-time high. The worst thing is that all Bitcoin ATMs have fees that are way too high and still require KYC.&nbsp;Why use them when you can&nbsp;just&nbsp;use an exchange and wire money directly to your bank?



<h2>AMC Entertainment (AMC)</h2>



<a href="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/amc-1600-2.png"><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/amc-1600-2-300x169.png" alt="AMC theater in Manhattan, New York City. AMC stock. APE stock"></a>AMC&rsquo;s (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/amc-stock-quote/">AMC</a>) potential movie theatre comeback has been greatly exaggerated, even with high-profile blockbusters on the schedule. They did beat EPS by 19.6% in Q1 and met revenue expectations. However, the <a href="https://seekingalpha.com/news/4103715-amc-stock-sinks-after-theatre-chain-warns-of-weaker-second-quarter">weaker Q2 guidance</a> should not at all&nbsp;be underestimated. Revenue fell by 0.3%, and earnings are still red. Their traditional business model&nbsp;clearly&nbsp;faces an uphill battle competing with on-demand options.



AMC is making desperate moves, like hyping their popcorn brand and crypto offerings,&nbsp;just&nbsp;to stay relevant.&nbsp;With debt weighing them down and expenses rising,&nbsp;I estimate&nbsp;AMC could run into serious cash flow problems soon should trends fail to turn around.&nbsp;The &ldquo;apes&rdquo; may finally be waking up to these realities.



Rate cuts will lower losses. But when megatrends in the entertainment industry act as headwinds, it would be wise to put those dollars into more forward-thinking entertainment plays built for the future rather than this fading meme stock.



<h2>ChargePoint (CHPT)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/chpt1600-300x169.png" alt="Selective focus. Detail of ChargePoint commercial EV electric vehicle charging station on uncovered parking lot. CHPT stock"><div>Source: Michael Vi / Shutterstock.com</div></div>ChargePoint&rsquo;s (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/chpt-stock-quote/">CHPT</a>) fourth quarter 2024 results highlight challenges I see with slowing EV adoption amid economic uncertainty. While they&nbsp;do&nbsp;have&nbsp;a very big&nbsp;market share in the industry, CHPT could hit a &ldquo;growth ceiling.&rdquo; I am bullish on the EV charging space. However, it is abundantly clear that EVs will take much longer than expected to dominate the road. This makes me believe it is one of the stocks to sell in May.



<div><a href="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/chart-8-1.png"><img width="1200" height="628" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/chart-8-1.png" alt="CHPT. Stocks to Sell in May"> Click to Enlarge</a><div>Source: Chart courtesy of <a href="https://GuruFocus.com">GuruFocus.com</a></div></div>I wouldn&rsquo;t be shocked if CHPT&rsquo;s annual revenue growth gets worse as it matures. At that point, investors may be better off rotating to more established EV options, generating profits today instead of chasing future potential. Growth has limits, so stability and cash flows will matter more. Analysts <a href="https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/CHPT/earnings/estimates">expect just 8.2% revenue growth</a> this year. They still expect sales growth to be around 20-25% annually on average for the next decade. But, given the -81.8% net margin that ended up going down another 58.9% year-over-year (YOY), holding CHPT will only bring more pain.



<h2>Appen Limited (APXYY)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/data1600b-300x169.jpg" alt="Abstract Futuristic infographic with Visual data complexity , represent Big data concept, node base programming. storage stocks"><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div>Artificial intelligence (AI) is one of the hottest sectors right now, and if a company fails to capitalize on it, it&nbsp;really&nbsp;isn&rsquo;t&nbsp;a&nbsp;good&nbsp;look.&nbsp;Appen&rsquo;s (OTCMKTS:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/apxyy-stock-quote/">APXYY</a>) <a href="https://www.google.com/finance/quote/APX:ASX">revenue fell by 34.6%</a> in Q4 of 2023. Losing that <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/01/23/alphabet-ends-contract-with-appen-which-trained-bard-google-search.html">$82.8 million Google contract</a> signals that tech heavyweights may increasingly want to control more aspects of data work in-house rather than relying on outside vendors like Appen Limited. This sting is going to linger for a long time.



AI can do&nbsp;a lot of&nbsp;jobs on its own these days. So outsourcing labor through contracts makes much less sense for big companies.&nbsp;And, if you&rsquo;ve read the news recently, you&rsquo;d know that <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/05/01/google-cuts-hundreds-of-core-workers-moves-jobs-to-india-mexico.html">Google is hiring&nbsp;from India and Mexico</a>&nbsp;now&nbsp;instead of relying on third parties.



Analysts expect Appen Limited&rsquo;s revenue growth will slow to mid-single digits in the years ahead as their legacy work flounders. As exciting as generative AI is, investors may want to put their money behind the companies pioneering the core technologies rather than auxiliary service providers getting edged out. I don&rsquo;t think cost-cutting will lead to a rebound if this &ldquo;AI&rdquo; company can&rsquo;t grow its top line.



<h2>The Beachbody Company (BODI)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/fitness-1600-300x169.jpg" alt="View from behind of woman working out to a televised exercise program."><div>Source: MIA Studio / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Beachbody&rsquo;s (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/bodi-stock-quote/">BODI</a>) latest results should cause&nbsp;serious&nbsp;concern among investors. Management may be patting themselves on the back for cost-cutting. But&nbsp;the reality is,&nbsp;their top line continues crumbling as consumers flee the brand.&nbsp;They need to win customers back, and I&nbsp;don&rsquo;t see&nbsp;a real plan&nbsp;to do that.



Pivoting to subscriptions is also risky. If customer churn surges, as feared, recurring revenue will plummet. Analysts expect&nbsp;exactly&nbsp;that, with <a href="https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/BODI/earnings/estimates">revenue expected to decline 17.3%</a> in 2024.



<div><a href="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/chart-9.png"><img width="1200" height="628" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/chart-9.png" alt="BODI decline. Stocks to Sell in May"> Click to Enlarge</a><div>Source: Chart courtesy of <a href="https://GuruFocus.com">GuruFocus.com</a></div></div>Frankly, Beachbody is slow, expensive and behind the curve. It has many red flags even after the cost-cutting measures. Its <a href="https://www.gurufocus.com/term/zscore/BODI">Altman-Z score of -2.86</a> puts it in the distress zone, while revenue has&nbsp;been falling&nbsp;consistently since 2021. It is definitely one of the top stocks to sell in May.



<h2>Comscore (SCOR)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/socialmedia1600b-300x169.jpg" alt=""><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div>Comscore (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/scor-stock-quote/">SCOR</a>) is a media measurement and analytics company.&nbsp;One look at its <a href="https://www.gurufocus.com/stock/SCOR/financials">financials</a>, and you&rsquo;ll quickly realize a lot&nbsp;is going wrong.&nbsp;Its top line has stagnated for nearly a decade, and it has made losses&nbsp;every single year&nbsp;since 2010. Investors would be&nbsp;more than&nbsp;happy&nbsp;to still buy the stock, but they need to show growth to justify those losses. That isn&rsquo;t the case here. Thus, the stock is down 93% in the past five years.



It has slowly narrowed its losses over the past few quarters. However, its net margin is nearly -30%. It will likely take years for this company to break even and&nbsp;start growing&nbsp;its revenue again (if ever).



<h2>Terran Orbital (LLAP)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/shutterstock_1034855800-300x169.png" alt="A photo of a satellite over earth."><div>Source: AlexLMX / Shutterstock</div></div>Terran Orbital (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/llap-stock-quote/">LLAP</a>)&nbsp;used to be a stock I was previously quite bullish on. 



But my sentiment has completely changed due to some personal experiences and recent news.&nbsp;Management&nbsp;actually&nbsp;reached out to me a few months&nbsp;back&nbsp;for a private interview session with their chief executive officer (CEO).&nbsp;However, I made a counter-proposal&nbsp;to&nbsp;just&nbsp;ask them&nbsp;some&nbsp;questions that I felt would help provide more clarity for readers.



I asked about recent contract wins, deliveries and future targets to give a better sense of the growth trajectory.&nbsp;Also, I queried about the outlook for achieving profitability&nbsp;and positive&nbsp;cash flow,&nbsp;as well as&nbsp;expanding margins &ndash;&nbsp;key&nbsp;issues given the current losses. Unfortunately, I never received a reply, despite them reaching out to me for the questions.



While my personal experience does not entirely determine my investment view, LLAP&rsquo;s decision not to participate in an earnings call for Q4 raises red flags. They&rsquo;ve missed revenue estimates by significant margins for the past four quarters. Most concerning is the net margin, which sits at a <a href="https://www.google.com/finance/quote/LLAP:NYSE">massive negative of -135.6%</a>, down 31.2% in Q4 alone.&nbsp;Clearly,&nbsp;things&nbsp;are not&nbsp;trending in the right direction.&nbsp;Given the lack of transparency and poor fundamentals, LLAP is&nbsp;definitely&nbsp;not a stock I would feel comfortable buying&nbsp;at this time.&nbsp;In fact,&nbsp;it looks like a prime candidate regarding stocks to sell in May.
