Tesla Vs. Nio: Which EV Stock Has Performed Better Over The Past Year?

Earlier this month, Facebook Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/fb#NASDAQ">FB</a>) CEO Mark Zuckerberg told employees the company would put new emphasis on growing the metaverse.
&quot;In the coming years, I expect people will transition from seeing us primarily as a social media company to seeing us as a metaverse company,&rdquo; Zuckerberg reiterated Wednesday afternoon during the company&#39;s second-quarter conference call.
Here&rsquo;s what the metaverse means, how Facebook can grow the sector and a way to invest in the sector.
The Metaverse: The metaverse was first coined in the 1992 science fiction novel &quot;Snow Crash&quot; by Neal Stephenson. The term represents a meeting of the physical world with augmented and virtual reality.
Companies like Roblox Corp (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/rblx#NYSE">RBLX</a>), Fortnite and Animal Crossing from Nintendo Co (Pink: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ntdoy#Pink">NTDOY</a>) have been mentioned as metaverse companies connecting users to a digital world.
Venture capitalist Matthew Ball published an <a href="https://www.matthewball.vc/all/themetaverse">essay</a>&nbsp;in 2020&nbsp;highlighting the key characteristics of this new segment.
Facebook VP of VR and AR Andrew Bosworth <a href="https://www.facebook.com/boz/posts/10113772424752191">said </a>recently&nbsp;Facebook was already connecting to the metaverse with the Facebook Reality Labs division.

Facebook&rsquo;s Role: Facebook can transport a person into a room with another person using virtual worlds.
&ldquo;But to achieve our full vision of the metaverse, we also need to build the connective tissue between these spaces, so you can remove the limitations of physics and move between them with the same ease as moving from one room in your home to the next,&rdquo; Bosworth said.
Zuckerberg said that no single company will run the metaverse with many companies competing in an &ldquo;embodied internet.&rdquo;
&ldquo;Our overarching goal across all of these initiatives is to help bring the metaverse to life,&rdquo; Zuckerberg told <a href="https://www.theverge.com/22588022/mark-zuckerberg-facebook-ceo-metaverse-interview?stream=top">The Verge</a>.
A metaverse could be large for creators and artists and individuals who want to work and live far from urban centers.
Oculus, a virtual reality company acquired by Facebook, could be one of the growing companies helping consumers connect to the metaverse.
Zuckerberg called the Quest 2 from Oculus a hit and said he&#39;s&nbsp;surprised with the way people are using it.
&ldquo;It&rsquo;s [the metaverse] going to be accessible across all of our different computing platforms; VR and AR, but also PC and also mobile devices and game consoles.&rdquo;
Zuckerberg thinks that many focus on the gaming side of things for the metaverse and highlights the growing entertainment sector of the market. Ultimately, Zuckerberg sees the metaverse as a hybrid of existing social platforms we have today &mdash; with the difference being the environment.
The Verge highlights some concerns with Facebook tackling the metaverse market given its pressure from some to break the company up and calls for the social media company to censor certain posts.
Having a virtual space would be harder to govern and moderate as it is still in the early phases.

Metaverse ETF: Earlier this year, Roundhill Investments <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/specialty-etfs/21/06/21773634/new-metaverse-etf-launches-from-roundhill-investments-what-investors-should-know">launched </a>the Roundhill Ball Metaverse ETF (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/meta#NYSE">META</a>). The ETF highlights the potential of the companies seeking to transform the metaverse sector.
&ldquo;This is probably the biggest endorsement of the metaverse to date, as Facebook is the sixth largest public company globally with a market cap of $1.1 trillion,&rdquo; Roundhill Investments Vice President Mario Stefanidis told Benzinga.
Stefanidis said the announcement shows Facebook&rsquo;s commitment to growing beyond a social media platform.
&ldquo;Zuckerberg&rsquo;s commitment of significant resources to the metaverse validates and legitimizes the attention it has gotten recently and squashes any notion that the concept is a passing fad.&rdquo;
Stefanidis credits Ball, who is a member of the META ETF, for helping create an index that selects companies that are best tackling the metaverse using seven categories.
Ball was mentioned specifically by Zuckerberg when discussing the metaverse.
META <a href="https://www.roundhillinvestments.com/etf/meta/">holds </a>50 companies in the ETF, with quarterly rebalances set to take place. Facebook is the 15th-largest holding with a weight of 2.5% as of July 27. Top holdings in the ETF are NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nvda#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/msft#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>), Tencent Holdings (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tcehy#OTC">TCEHY</a>), Roblox and Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/amzn#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>).
&ldquo;The BALLMETA Index&rsquo;s expert council will evaluate whether Facebook has increase in relevance across the seven categories that constitute the index, which could potentially increase the company&rsquo;s weight.&rdquo;
FB Price Action: Facebook shares gained 1.49% to $373.28 in Wednesday&#39;s session and were pulling back by 3.5% in the after-hours session.

10 Stocks Moving In Wednesday's After-Hours Session

Companies hit by data breaches are impacted by $4.24 million per incident on average, according to the annual Cost of a Data Breach Report conducted by Ponemon Institute&nbsp;and published by IBM Security, a division of IBM (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ibm#NYSE">IBM</a>). This cost is up 10% from one year ago and is the highest cost in the 17-year history of the report.
COVID Costs: The COVID-19 pandemic had a deleterious effect on cybersecurity, with a sudden shift to remote learning resulting in 60% of organizations moving their computing needs further into cloud-based services.
But too many organizations failed to adjust their security needs to these IT changes, and the new report found breaches cost over $1 million more on average when remote work was indicated as a factor in the event.
Furthermore, industries that experienced significant operational changes during the pandemic had disproportionately higher data breach costs, most notably with healthcare breaches costing $9.23 million per incident, up $2 million from one year earlier.
The financial services industry and the pharmaceutical <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-sectors-to-invest-in-right-now/">sector</a> saw their respective data breaches averaging $5.72 million per incident and $5.04 million per incident.

A Damaging Byte: The report also found that 44% of breaches personal data &mdash;&nbsp;including name, email, password and health records &mdash;&nbsp;and compromised user credentials were the most common entry point used by cyber miscreants. Breaches resulting from compromised credentials took an average of 250 days to identify.
Regionally, the most expensive data breaches occurred in the U.S. ($9.05 million per incident), followed by the Middle East ($6.93 million) and Canada ($5.4 million).
The new report culled its information from data breaches of 100,000 records or less, experienced by more than&nbsp;500 organizations worldwide between May 2020 and March 2021.

Bowlero is set to go public via special purpose acquisition company&nbsp;Isos Acquisition Corp (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/isos#NYSE">ISOS</a>) with an enterprise value of approximately $2.6 billion.&nbsp;
Brett Parker, president, vice chairman and CFO of Bowlero, appeared on&nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nog8ThEtA1s&amp;t=632s">Benzinga&#39;s YouTube show &quot;SPACs Attack&quot;</a>&nbsp;for an exclusive interview Wednesday.
Bowlero&nbsp;owns the Professional Bowlers Association&nbsp;(PBA) and&nbsp;operates approximately&nbsp;320&nbsp;bowling centers across&nbsp;North America.&nbsp;
The acquisition of the PBA gave the company a &quot;two-pronged value creation engine,&quot; Parker told Benzinga. As PBA viewership increases, the company is able to drive more people to its bowling centers, he added.
Bowling is the largest participatory sport in the U.S. and provides a $4.5 billion total addressable market for Bowlero.&nbsp;
Bowling isn&#39;t age- or gender-specific and &quot;you don&#39;t have to be good at it to have a good time,&quot; Parker said.&nbsp;
Bowlero was able to make bowling appeal&nbsp;to the modern consumer by complementing the core activity of bowling with superb service, high-quality food and beverages, and dynamic audio and visual features, he explained.&nbsp;
Following the COVID-19 pandemic, guests have come &quot;roaring back,&quot; Parker said.

Key Highlights:
<ul>
<li>25-year history of &quot;continuous growth and profitability.&quot;</li>

<li>Existing media project with NBC. The company is in talks with Netflix Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nflx#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) for additional media projects.&nbsp;Bowlero saw the highest bowling viewership numbers in 2020, despite COVID-19 challenges.</li>
<li>Bowlero is&nbsp;currently generating&nbsp;113% of pre-pandemic&nbsp;revenues. Expected revenue in 2022 is&nbsp;$859 million.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Bowlero plans to utilize licensing deals internationally.</li>
</ul>
SPAC Notes: The momentum of the SPAC market and the ability to provide advanced projections led Bowlero to go public via the SPAC route, Parker said.
The SPAC merger&nbsp;is expected to close in October 2021.&nbsp;Pending shareholder approval,&nbsp;the combined company will be listed&nbsp;on the New York Stock Exchange as&nbsp;Bowlero and trade&nbsp;under the ticker symbol &quot;BOWL.&quot;

Bullish Sentiment Pushing Cannabis Stocks Up, Check Out Top Movers For July 28, 2021

More investors have been turning to alternative investments for higher potential returns and to diversify their portfolios with assets that have little correlation with the stock market.
The increased activity in alternative investments has spurred demand for platforms that lower the barriers to entry for alternative asset classes and simplify the process for investors.&nbsp;
Art As An Investment: One type of alternative investment that has been attracting increased interest is contemporary artwork. This isn&rsquo;t surprising considering that this asset class has provided a 14% annual return over the last 25 years, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/go/masterworks-research">research conducted by Masterworks</a>, and 23% returns during years of high inflation.
Investing in this type of artwork has historically been reserved for a select class of investors, since the highest demand pieces sell for millions of dollars.
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/go/masterworks">Masterworks</a> has created a platform where investors can buy shares of carefully selected pieces of iconic artwork as easily as buying stocks.
The average investor can now participate in this exclusive asset class by purchasing shares in Masterworks&rsquo; offerings as well as buy and sell shares on the secondary market. There is no account minimum on the platform, but the investment required for each piece of artwork varies based on the offering.
Shares on the platform&rsquo;s secondary market are currently priced as low as $20 for some pieces.&nbsp;
How To Invest: The process for signing up for Masterworks and gaining access to investments is simple, especially since you don&rsquo;t have to be an accredited investor. Once your membership is set up and you connect your bank account you&rsquo;ll be able to start buying and selling shares of some of the most famous pieces of contemporary art on the planet.

How Investors Can Trade Shares Of Appreciating Artwork Like Stocks

Netflix Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nflx#NASDAQ">NFLX</a>) has become the first major Hollywood studio to mandate COVID-19 vaccinations for the actors in its U.S.-based productions and the crew members who come into contact with them while on a set.
What Happened: According to a <a href="https://deadline.com/2021/07/netflix-to-require-covid-vaccinations-for-all-actors-on-us-productions-1234801577/">Deadline</a> report, the major studios and the film industry unions agreed upon return-to-work protocols that enabled producers &ldquo;to implement mandatory vaccination policies for casts and crew in Zone A on a production-by-production basis.&rdquo; The term &ldquo;Zone A&rdquo; applies to a film&rsquo;s cast and the crew that interacts with them.
While individual productions, such as the Starz/UCP series &quot;Gaslit,&rdquo; adopted mandatory vaccination requirements &mdash;&nbsp;the series&rsquo; star&nbsp;Sean Penn&nbsp;refused to work unless that mandate was enacted &mdash;&nbsp;Netflix is the first studio to implement this policy across the board, with potential exceptions for people who declined the vaccine for age, medical and religious reasons.

Why It Happened: Netflix&rsquo;s policy comes as a fourth wave of COVID-19 has increased infection rates and hospitalizations across the country. To combat this new wave, Los Angeles County reinstated its mask mandate for all residents, including those who are fully vaccinated.
Last week, Los Angeles County recorded a 4% increase positive test rates, with 20% those cases coming from vaccinated patients.

InnarisBio&rsquo;s mission is to perfect intranasal drug delivery technology to improve treatments for mental health disorders. Its &ldquo;sol-gel intranasal drug delivery platform technology&rdquo; was developed in the laboratory of researcher Dr. Harendra Parekh at the University of Queensland.
The &ldquo;nose-to-brain&rdquo; technology delivers pharmaceutical compounds as a liquid at room temperature which becomes a gel at body temperature.
&ldquo;InnarisBio aims to be a revolutionary technology company for intranasal drug delivery in the treatment of CNS [central nervous system] disorders,&rdquo; said Florian Brand, CEO and co-founder of Atai.&nbsp;
According to the company, traditional drug delivery methods can be problematic in the treatment of central nervous system disorders due to the blood-brain barrier that restricts the entry of therapeutic agents in&nbsp;the central nervous system. Nose-to-brain delivery has the potential to be a painless and non-invasive administration route.
Brand said the newly-formed company has the potential to be superior to other intranasal drug delivery methods available by improving uptake through mucoadhesion in the nose, thus reducing dose administered and dosing frequency.&nbsp;
Atai plans to explore the potential use of this technology for a variety of psychedelic and non-psychedelic compounds under its development.
