<p>Elliott has a history of taking sizable positions and advocating for strategic changes.

<p>This situation isn&#8217;t Elliott&#8217;s first venture into the mining sector.

<p>BHP&#8217;s proposed takeover, coupled with the rising price of copper, strengthens Anglo American&#8217;s bargaining position.

Elliott Management's $1B Anglo American Stake Ups Ante As Mining Megamerger Collapses

<p><strong>SoFi Technologies, Inc.</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOFI#NASDAQ">SOFI</a>) shares are trading higher Friday, and the stock is up by more than 10% over the past five days. Here's a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/24/04/38223721/biden-wipes-more-than-7m-in-student-debt-for-277k-borrowers-too-many-people-feel-the-strain-and">look at what's going on</a>.</p>
<p><strong>What To Know:</strong></p>
<p>Shares of student loan-related companies fell last week after President Biden announced plans to cancel another $7.4 billion in student debt. To date, the Biden administration has erased approximately $153 billion in student loans, amounting to more than 9% of all outstanding federal student loan debt.</p>
<p>SoFi is set to report its first-quarter financial results before the market open on Monday, April 29 and will host a conference call at 8:00 a.m. ET the same day. According to estimates from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">Benzinga Pro</a>, analysts expect the company to report earnings of 1 cent per share and quarterly revenue of $555.997 million.&nbsp;</p>
<p>SoFi has recovered some losses this week, but the stock remains down by more than 20% year-to-date. According to data from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">Benzinga Pro</a>, SoFi shares are trading above the stock&#8217;s 50-day moving average of $7.68 and 17.14% of shares are being sold short.&nbsp;</p>
<p><em>Related News: </em><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38360358/whats-going-on-with-luxury-ev-maker-lucids-stock"><em>What&#8217;s Going On With Luxury EV-Maker Lucid&#8217;s Stock?</em></a></p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Is SOFI A Good Stock To Buy? </strong></h2>
<p>An investor can make a few decisions when deciding whether a stock is a good buy. In addition to valuation metrics and price action which you can find on Benzinga's quote pages  &#8211; like <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SOFI">SoFi Technologies&#8217;</a> page for example &#8211; there are factors like whether or not a company pays a dividend or buys a large portion of its stock each quarter.</p>
<p>These are known as capital allocation programs. SoFi Techs does not pay a dividend, but obviously has a few ways it can return value to shareholders. Feel free to search Benzinga's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/dividends">dividend calendar</a> for the next company that is due to pay a dividend and determine what kind of yield you can earn for holding a share of the company.</p>
<p>For example, if you're looking to earn an annualized return of 9.75%, you'll need to buy a share of Allspring Inc Opps by the May 10. Once done, you can expect to receive a nominal payout of $0.05 on June 3.</p>
<p>Buyback programs are obviously different and highly variable. A company can approve a buyback program and purchase shares as it sees fit over the course of time in which the buyback was authorized. Looking through the latest news on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SOFI">SoFi Techs</a> will often yield whether or not the company has approved a buyback program recently. Buyback programs usually serve as a support for share prices, serving as a backstop for demand.</p>
<p><strong>SOFI Price Action:</strong> According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/?gspk=YWRhbWVja2VydDUzMzY&amp;gsxid=zBMR4PKmcgBw">Benzinga Pro</a>, SoFi Technologies shares are up 3.03% at $7.82 at the time of publication Friday.</p>

iShares MSCI Turkey Investable Market Index Fund

Turkish Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Says "Our President's Visit To The U.S. Postponed To A Later Date Convenient To Both Sides Due To Scheduling Conflicts"; "High-Level Dialogue Between Turkey And The U.S. Will Continue"

<p>In what will be a landmark move in sports media history, the <a href="https://theathletic.com/nba/">NBA</a> and Amazon Prime Video have the framework of a deal that will make the streaming service one of the main homes for the league games, executives with direct knowledge of the talks told <i>The Athletic</i>.</p>
<p>It is expected that Prime Video's package will include significant regular season and postseason games, perhaps even some conference finals. The anticipation is that the final contract will be for at least a decade and begin the 2025-2026 season.</p>
<p>ESPN/ABC, as the website Puck reported Thursday, also has a framework of a deal with the expectations that an agreement will be completed. ESPN/ABC are expected to keep the Finals on its networks for the duration of its deals. Like Amazon, ESPN's new contract is also expected to be at least a decade in length.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>All of the details are not finalized yet, but all sides are under the expectations they will get done. The NBA, Amazon and ESPN all declined to comment.</p>
<p>The NBA prefers to have three companies involved in its new deals, but has not ruled out adding a fourth.</p>
<p>The NBA is finishing up nine-year deals that pay it $2.6 billion on average from ESPN and TNT Sports. Those contracts end after the 2024-2025 season.</p>
<p>The advancement in the Amazon and ESPN talks leaves incumbent Warner Bros. Discovery, which owns network TNT Sports, to face off with NBC, owned by Comcast, for the likely last package of games. Warner Bros. Discovery has the right to match deals, but NBC could try to structure an agreement in a way that makes it difficult.</p>
<p>While there is still work to be completed for the final arrangements, the current packages are going to be pruned slightly to create the third partner. In one arrangement, ESPN will cut down from around 100 games to around 80, according to executives briefed on the talks.</p>
<p>A natural landing spot for Amazon's regular-season games could be Thursday night, where it already has the <a href="https://theathletic.com/nfl/">NFL</a> from September to early January. The NBA, in recent years, has moved its games off Thursday during the time period to not go head-to-head with the NFL. It is expected to then have significant playoff inventory. Amazon has shown interest in global rights, which has been a key part of the NBA's negotiating strategy as it lined all of its domestic and international deals to end following the 2024-2025 season</p>
<p>The NBA has made it clear that it wanted to define itself for the next frontier of viewing with streaming at the forefront.</p>
<p>With ESPN, Amazon and the NBA all under the impression that they will complete deals, this puts the onus on TNT Sports, which has had the NBA since 1984. It is in a fight with NBC, which was the lead partner of the NBA before losing its rights in 2002. NBC, with its streaming service, Peacock, wants back in and is competing with Warner Bros. Discovery Sports for a deal.</p>
