The CNN Money Fear and Greed index showed further improvement in the overall market sentiment, with the index in the &#8220;Greed&#8221; zone on Wednesday.
U.S. stocks settled lower on Wednesday, following the Federal Reserve&#8217;s interest rate decision. The U.S. central bank slashed interest rates by 50 basis points Wednesday at its September Federal Open Market Committee meeting, lowering the federal funds rate to a range of 4.75% to 5%. This marks the first rate cut in over four years and breaks a streak of 12 consecutive months with rates held steady.
On the economic data front, housing starts in the U.S. climbed by 9.6% from the prior month to an annualized rate of 1.356 million units for August. U.S. building permits gained by 4.9% to an adjusted annual rate of 1.475 million in August.
General Mills, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GIS#NYSE">GIS</a>) reported better-than-expected earnings for its first quarter on Wednesday.
Most sectors on the S&amp;P 500 closed on a negative note, with consumer staples, utilities, and information technology stocks recording the biggest losses on Wednesday. However, energy and communication services stocks bucked the overall market trend, closing the session higher.
The Dow Jones closed lower by around 104 points to 41,503.10 on Wednesday. The S&amp;P 500 fell 0.29% to 5,618.26, while the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.31% at 17,573.30 during Wednesday's session.

What is CNN Business Fear &amp; Greed Index?
At a current reading of 56.2, the index was in the &#8220;Greed&#8221; zone on Wednesday, versus a prior reading of 55.9.
The Fear &amp; Greed Index is a measure of the current market sentiment. It is based on the premise that higher fear exerts pressure on stock prices, while higher greed has the opposite effect. The index is calculated based on seven equal-weighted indicators. The index ranges from 0 to 100, where 0 represents maximum fear and 100 signals maximum greediness.

Darden Restaurants, FedEx And 3 Stocks To Watch Heading Into Thursday

NVIDIA Corp&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) key supplier for high-bandwidth memory chips SK Hynix (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HXSCF#OTC">HXSCF</a>) declined over 6% on the South Korean exchange after Morgan Stanley&nbsp;downgraded the Korean memory chipmaker to underweight from overweight. 
What Happened: Morgan Stanley in a brokerage note slashed SK Hynix&#8217;s target price to 120,000 won from 260,000 won, citing the least preference for the stock among global memory makers, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-09-19/sk-hynix-shares-tumble-on-double-downgrade-at-morgan-stanley">reported</a> Bloomberg on Thursday.
"We prefer moving up to quality in Samsung and value-oriented end markets," wrote analysts Shawn Kim and Duan Liu. "Memory conditions are beginning to deteriorate. It will get tougher for revenue growth and margins from here as we move past late-cycle conditions."
The stock hit its lowest level since Feb. 19 after falling as much as 10%. Meanwhile, Samsung Electronics Co (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SSNLF#OTC">SSNLF</a>) saw a 3.1% decline among other semiconductor shares traded in Seoul.

Not So Fast, Polymarket Traders Say</a>
Why It Matters:&nbsp;In July, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. increased SK Hynix&#8217;s stock-price target to 290,000 won ($210), indicating a potential gain of 25%. Meanwhile, Citigroup Inc. raised its prediction to 350,000 won during the same period. 
SK Hynix's parent company,&nbsp;SK Group, pledged to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39575498/nvidia-suppliers-parent-company-pledges-56b-investment-in-ai-chip-tech-by-2026-as-competition-from-s" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;invest 80 trillion won</a>&nbsp;($56 billion) by 2026 in artificial intelligence and semiconductors, primarily in high-bandwidth memory chips, data centers, and personalized AI assistant services. This move is expected to strengthen its supply chains for emerging technology and bolster its position as a leading supplier to Nvidia.
The ongoing AI boom has put two South Korean chipmakers,&nbsp;Samsung&nbsp;and&nbsp;SK Hynix, in the spotlight. Industry experts are now discussing which company is the better investment in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/05/38634543/ai-boom-puts-nvidia-suppliers-sk-hynix-samsung-in-spotlight-experts-discuss-best-so">this AI-driven market</a>.
Price Action: SK Hynix&nbsp;is currently trading at 151,800 won, with a decline of 6.76% on Thursday. The stock has gained 6.60% year-to-date, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/login">data from Benzinga Pro</a>.

Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk&#8217;s social media platform, X, formerly Twitter, had managed to temporarily bypass a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40664929/brazil-judge-bans-x-after-months-long-feud-threatens-fines-of-nearly-9k-per-day-on-users-who-try-to">ban in Brazil</a> with the help of an automatic update of its software.
What Happened: On Wednesday, the Brazilian Association of Internet and Telecommunications Providers, or ABRINT, said that X has modified its structure to use IP addresses associated with Cloudflare.
This alteration has made it difficult to block X in Brazil.
According to ABRINT, the new IP addresses used by X are shared with other legitimate services, including banks and large internet platforms "making it impossible to block an IP without affecting other services."

In a <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-09-18/elon-musk-s-x-bypasses-brazil-ban-through-a-software-update">statement</a> to Bloomberg, the social media platform said that the restored access was "inadvertent and temporary," in Brazil. This happened after the company switched network providers following the ban.
"While we expect the platform to be inaccessible again in Brazil soon, we continue efforts to work with the Brazilian government to return very soon for the people of Brazil," the X spokesperson said.
Subscribe to the <a href="https://bztechtrends.beehiiv.com/subscribe">Benzinga Tech Trends newsletter</a> to get all the latest tech developments delivered to your inbox.
Why It Matters: The ban on X was ordered by Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes after the tech mogul refused to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40623911/brazilian-supreme-court-tells-elon-musk-to-appoint-legal-representative-for-x-in-24-hours-or-face-su">appoint a legal representative</a> in the country.
According to local media in Brazil, following the restored access, the court has asked Brazil&#8217;s telecoms regulator, Anatel, to explain the unauthorized access of X, the report noted
Previously, it was reported that the ban on X could impact <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40709109/elon-musks-brazil-standoff-for-x-could-impact-tesla-spacex-and-other-ventures-warns-expert">Musk's other ventures</a> including SpaceX and Tesla.

What Happened: The company took to social media platform X to share pictures and videos from the static fire test. During a static fire test, the two-stage rocket&#8217;s first-stage engines are ignited but it does not leave the launchpad.
&#8220;Six engine static fire of Flight 6 Starship,&#8221; the company wrote.

Earlier this month, SpaceX said that Starship has been&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40305893/starship-fifth-flight-delayed-spacex-ceo-elon-musk-gives-fresh-august-end-timeline" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ready for its fifth flight test</a>&nbsp;since the first week of August but has been put off owing to "frivolous" and "patently absurd" licensing issues.
"Unfortunately, we continue to be stuck in a reality where it takes longer to do the government paperwork to license a rocket launch than it does to design and build the actual hardware," SpaceX said.
The company said that it recently received a launch license date estimate of late November for the fifth flight from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), marking a two-month delay from the previously communicated date of mid-September.
The delay, SpaceX said, was not based on a new safety concern but on "superfluous" environmental analysis including concerns about the Starbase facility having a negative impact on local flora and fauna. However, the company disputed these claims.
&#8220;Flight 5 is built and ready to fly. Flight 6 will be ready to fly before Flight 5 even gets approved by FAA!&#8221; SpaceX CEO Elon Musk said on Thursday.

Past Flight Tests:&nbsp;SpaceX has conducted four flight tests with the Starship thus far.
SpaceX&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39226248/elon-musk-outlines-future-starship-goals-after-successful-fourth-flight-test" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">last launched Starship</a>&nbsp;in the first half of June. During the test, the two stages of the vehicle – the Starship spacecraft and the Super Heavy booster – separated, and the booster subsequently had a soft splashdown in the Gulf of Mexico. The spacecraft ignited its engines and went into space, made a controlled re-entry to Earth, and had a soft splashdown in the Indian Ocean.
The entire flight lasted one hour and six minutes from launch. The key object of the flight was to re-enter Earth and the mission achieved it while withstanding damage to the vehicle.
The flights before accomplished less. While the spacecraft failed to reach space in the first flight, it reached space and exploded in the second test flight. During the third flight test, the spacecraft broke apart when re-entering Earth's atmosphere from space.
Upcoming Flight:&nbsp;The two-stage Starship is touted as the world&#8217;s most powerful launch vehicle, standing 121 meters tall and weighing approximately 5,000 tonnes. For the upcoming flight, SpaceX's goal is to&nbsp;catch Starship's&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39543299/spacex-preparing-to-catch-starship-booster-at-starbase-during-next-test-flight-instead-of-splashing" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">booster stage back at Starbase</a>&nbsp;using the launch tower&#8217;s mechanical arms, marking a significant demonstration of Starship's reusability.
The company is relying on frequent test flights to test and enhance the capability of the vehicle. Musk said in March that Starship is expected to have at least six test flights this year. However, only two test flights have been completed to date in 2024.
Starship is key to NASA's dreams of taking humans back to the surface of the Moon.
NASA's Artemis 3 mission slated to launch no earlier than September 2026 is expected to enable humans to land back on the surface of the moon with the help of a lunar lander variant of the Starship spacecraft. The last time humans set foot on the Moon was in 1972&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/01/36692749/just-a-worse-version-of-apollo-elon-musk-baffled-by-nasa-veterans-push-to-ditch-spacex-blue-origin-a" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">with Apollo 17</a>. Since then, no crew has traveled beyond low-Earth orbit.
Musk, meanwhile, is eyeing<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40770222/elon-musk-sets-2026-for-starships-first-uncrewed-mars-mission-targeting-successful-landing" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">&nbsp;taking humans to Earth's neighboring planet Mars</a>&nbsp;aboard the Starship. The first Starship launch to Mars, Musk said earlier this month, is expected in 2026 and will not have a crew on board.

Ahead of the 2024 presidential election, former President Donald Trump made headlines with a notable campaign stop in New York City.
What Happened: Former President Trump made a campaign stop at PubKey, a crypto-themed bar in New York, on Wednesday. Trump paid for smash burgers and Diet Cokes using Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), <a href="https://www.wsj.com/politics/elections/that-time-donald-trump-walked-into-a-bar-and-bought-a-round-using-bitcoin-92cf6dd0?mod=latest_headlines">reported</a> The Wall Street Journal.
Trump&#8217;s visit to PubKey, a popular spot among cryptocurrency enthusiasts, aimed to bolster his support from the crypto community. He declared the transaction as &#8220;history in the making&#8221; after using his iPhone to make the payment.
Mike Germano, president of Bitcoin Magazine, praised Trump, saying, &#8220;He's now one of us.&#8221; PubKey co-founder Andrew Newman called it a significant step in bitcoin history, emphasizing the movement behind the currency.
Trump, who once criticized bitcoin, has since embraced the industry. He has appeared at crypto conferences and received millions in campaign contributions made in cryptocurrencies. He promised a more favorable regulatory climate if re-elected.

During the event, Trump reiterated his commitment to making the U.S. the &#8220;world capital for crypto and bitcoin.&#8221; He also pledged to halt work on central bank digital currencies and proposed creating a strategic national bitcoin stockpile and a bitcoin advisory council, according to the report.
PubKey also shared an image with Trump on X, captioning it: &#8220;One of the most historic transactions in #bitcoin history was just made.&#8221;

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) claimed on X that Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell admitted President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris&#8216; administration&#8217;s immigration policies are contributing to higher unemployment rates. Powell&#8217;s comments were made during a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/09/40929003/powells-hawkish-tone-tempers-market-excitement-after-historic-50-basis-point-intere">postmeeting press conference</a>.
What Happened: Johnson shared a video clip where Powell was questioned about the recent job creation rates and the impact of immigration on the labor market. 
Powell responded by indicating that the influx of immigrants has contributed to the rise in unemployment, alongside a slower hiring rate.
Powell said, &#8220;If you're having millions of people come into the labor force, then—and you're creating 100,000 jobs, you're going to see unemployment go up.&#8221; He noted that the increase in unemployment is partly due to the high number of people entering the country and the slower rate of job creation.
Sharing Powell&#8217;s remarks, Johnson wrote, &#8220;The Federal Reserve Chairman admitted the massive influx of illegal immigrants under Biden and Harris has raised the unemployment rate. This administration's refusal to secure the border is actively harming American workers and our economy.&#8221; 
Additionally, Elon Musk CEO of Tesla Inc. has reshared Johnson&#8217;s post, amplifying the discussion.

Why It Matters: The context surrounding Powell&#8217;s comments is crucial to understanding the broader economic landscape. Just a day before Johnson&#8217;s post, Powell had defended a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/09/40927293/powell-defends-0-5-interest-rate-drop-as-right-thing-for-the-economy-doubles-down">significant 50-basis-point interest rate cut</a>, emphasizing it was necessary to support the labor market and prevent economic downturns. 
This rate cut, which brought interest rates down to a range of 4.75% to 5%, was the first in over four years. Powell stressed the importance of preemptive measures to maintain a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/09/40927293/powell-defends-0-5-interest-rate-drop-as-right-thing-for-the-economy-doubles-down">strong labor market</a>.
Moreover, the Federal Reserve&#8217;s dot plot indicated that policymakers <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/09/40929003/powells-hawkish-tone-tempers-market-excitement-after-historic-50-basis-point-intere">anticipate further rate cuts</a>, signaling a cautious approach to economic stability.
Johnson&#8217;s remarks also come at a time when House Republicans, including Johnson himself, are grappling with internal disagreements over a funding bill aimed at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40931809/house-republicans-reject-their-own-funding-bill-as-government-shutdown-looms-mike-johnson-says-we-ha">preventing a government shutdown</a>. 
Musk&#8217;s involvement in the discussion is notable, given his advocacy for simplifying the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38488525/elon-musk-advocates-for-easier-and-simplified-legal-immigration-process-amid-migrant-influx">legal immigration process</a>.

Microsoft Corporation&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTF#NASDAQ">MSTF</a>) LinkedIn, the professional networking giant, has come under scrutiny for reportedly using user data for AI training before&nbsp;updating its terms of service.
What Happened: This primarily affected users in the U.S., as those in the EU, European Economic Area, or Switzerland were likely exempt due to stringent data privacy rules in these regions, <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2024/09/18/linkedin-scraped-user-data-for-training-before-updating-its-terms-of-service/">reported</a> TechCrunch, <a href="https://www.404media.co/linkedin-is-training-ai-on-user-data-before-updating-its-terms-of-service/">citing</a> 404 media as the first to spot this discrepancy.
Users have an opt-out toggle in their settings that reveals LinkedIn collects personal data to train &#8220;content creation AI models.&#8221; While the toggle isn&#8217;t new, LinkedIn initially failed to update its privacy policy to reflect this data usage.
LinkedIn&#8217;s terms of service have since been updated, but typically, such updates precede significant changes&nbsp;like using user data for&nbsp;new purposes.

LinkedIn did not immediately respond to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga&#8217;s</a> request for comments.
The company uses the data to train its own AI models, including those&nbsp;for writing suggestions and post&nbsp;recommendations. LinkedIn also indicated&nbsp;that generative AI models on&nbsp;its platform could be trained by &#8220;another provider,&#8221; such as its parent company,&nbsp;Microsoft.
How To Opt Out Of LinkedIn&#8217;s Data Scrapping
Step I: Go to the &#8220;Data Privacy&#8221; section in the settings menu.
Step II: Select &#8220;Data for Generative AI improvement.&#8221;

Why It Matters: Earlier this year, AI startups&nbsp;OpenAI and Anthropic&nbsp;were accused of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39443965/openai-and-anthropic-allegedly-ignore-web-scraping-rules-stirring-controversy">ignoring web scraping rules</a>. The reported behavior of OpenAI and Anthropic reflected a larger trend among AI companies pursuing high-quality data for their models.
In April,&nbsp;OpenAI also received flak for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38152790/openai-transcribes-over-a-million-youtube-hours-navigating-the-gray-area-of-ai-data-use">reportedly transcribing over a million hours</a> of YouTube videos for training its GPT-4 model.
OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT, has also gained attention with its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38975543/news-corp-stock-pops-on-multiyear-deal-with-openai">multiyear partnership</a> with News Corp, giving it access to the media giant&#8217;s news content. This deal marked a notable advancement in the AI industry&#8217;s pursuit of high-quality training data.
Later in July, Elon Musk&#8217;s social media platform, X, formerly Twitter, was found to be&nbsp;<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">sharing user posts</a>&nbsp;with xAI&#8217;s Grok for training.

Microsoft's LinkedIn in Hot Water For Allegedly Using Data Of Users For Training AI Before Updating Terms Of Service

Ahead of a looming government shutdown, a significant development occurred in the House of Representatives as Speaker Mike Johnson's (R-La.) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40913633/house-set-to-vote-on-gop-bill-to-prevent-government-shutdown-after-chuck-schumer-warns-republicans-n">funding bill was defeated</a>.
What Happened: A diverse group of House Republicans rejected Speaker Johnson's proposal to fund the government on Wednesday. The bill&#8217;s failure complicates efforts to avoid a government shutdown at the end of the month, <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/house/4887533-mike-johnson-funding-bill-fails-house/">reported</a> The Hill.
&#8220;We have time to fix the situation, and we'll get right to it. I'm disappointed. I know this was the right thing to do, and I think the American people are gonna let a lot of the folks that voted no tonight hear their concerns about it,&#8221; Johnson said. 
Fourteen Republicans joined nearly every Democrat in voting against the bill, which combined a six-month stopgap measure with a requirement for proof of citizenship to vote. The final vote tally was 202-220, with two members voting present.
The opposition came from various GOP factions: hardline conservatives opposed the continuing resolution, defense hawks worried about Pentagon funding, and moderates were concerned about the shutdown threat close to the election.
Rep. Beth Van Duyne (R-Texas) criticized the bill, saying, "I look at the spending, and I think that's one of the largest issues that we have in our country, is $36 trillion in debt."
The bill's failure leaves Speaker Johnson in a difficult position, with the path to avoiding a shutdown now uncertain. Johnson indicated he is already discussing alternative plans with colleagues.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) urged bipartisan cooperation to keep the government running, stating, "Bipartisan, bicameral cooperation. That's what works."
Former President Donald Trump has pressured Republicans to include the SAVE Act in any funding legislation, further complicating Johnson's efforts to navigate the situation.
Why It Matters: The defeat of Speaker Johnson&#8217;s funding bill is a critical moment in the ongoing struggle to prevent a government shutdown. This event follows a series of contentious negotiations and warnings from key political figures.
On Wednesday, the House was set to vote on Johnson&#8217;s proposal to keep the government funded, but the bill lacked <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40913633/house-set-to-vote-on-gop-bill-to-prevent-government-shutdown-after-chuck-schumer-warns-republicans-n">sufficient Republican support</a> to pass. Senate Majority Leader Schumer had previously warned that if a shutdown occurred due to &#8220;Republican poison pills,&#8221; the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40890590/chuck-schumer-says-if-government-shutdown-happens-it-will-because-of-republican-poison-pills-the-ame">American public would hold the GOP responsible</a>.
Earlier in June, Speaker Johnson had suggested invoking the 25th Amendment to remove President Joe Biden from office, indicating his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39562810/mike-johnson-suggests-using-25th-amendment-to-remove-biden-after-debate-performance-this-is-a-very-d">aggressive stance on various issues</a>.
In March, the House had successfully passed a major spending bill to prevent a government shutdown, showcasing the complexities and challenges in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/03/37529014/us-house-successfully-passes-major-spending-bill-to-prevent-government-shutdown">achieving bipartisan agreement</a>.
