Shares of Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) have skyrocketed by 17.47% over the last 17 days, reregistering one of the longest winning streaks for the company led by Mark Zuckerberg, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/12025719/Meta-Over-Last-18-Days-1024x576.png" alt="" class="wp-image-777978" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/12025719/Meta-Over-Last-18-Days-1024x576.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/12025719/Meta-Over-Last-18-Days-300x169.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/12025719/Meta-Over-Last-18-Days-768x432.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/12025719/Meta-Over-Last-18-Days-1536x864.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/12025719/Meta-Over-Last-18-Days.png 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></a></figure>
What Happened: The stock trades at $719.80 apiece as of Tuesday&#8217;s close, which is about 0.7% shy of its 52-week high of $725.01 per share.
Despite the constant surge in the stock, Meta&#8217;s over-optimistic momentum indicators hint at a likely pullback.
The company&#8217;s simple daily moving averages hinted at a bullish uptrend, owing to strength in the stock, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>. The share price was much above its 200-day simple moving average of $548.26, and 50-day average of $630.51. It is also higher than its eight-day average of $707.43 and the 20-day average of $665.82.
The momentum indicators were also very strong. The relative strength index of 80.70, coupled with a positive MACD (moving average convergence/divergence) indicator of 28.44 showed that the stock was overbought. These strong upward trends suggest that the stock could be nearing exhaustion, signaling a potential short-term pullback or consolidation phase.

&#8220;It&#8217;s about monetizing those three and a half billion DAUs,&#8221; he said, adding that AI innovations &#8220;could be an incremental $100 per share&#8221; for Meta as the company ramps up its efforts.

Biogen Gears Up For Q4 Print; Here Are The Recent Forecast Changes From Wall Street's Most Accurate Analysts

California-based EV startup Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>) on Tuesday released a series of teaser images, accompanied by the message &#8220;a mirage takes shape Feb 19.&#8221;
What Happened: The teaser images feature tire marks on the sand and also an image of the underside of a vehicle. One of the pictures shows sand dunes as seen through the R1T&#8217;s gear tunnel.
&#8220;Let the countdown begin!,&#8221; Rivian said in a post reply on X. 
The cryptic images shared on email, as well as social media platform X, have customers guessing.
While some are predicting a sand color exterior, others expect an imminent launch of the R2T, a pickup truck variant of the company&#8217;s upcoming R2 vehicle.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>

Yet another expects a launch for R1X, a rumored rugged variant of the company&#8217;s R1 vehicles.

Popular tech YouTuber Marques Brownlee joined the guessing game and responded to the images with a short, &#8220;R2D2?&#8221; It is unclear what Brownlee intended with the response.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
Why It Matters: Rivian currently has only two vehicle models for individual customers- the R1T truck and the R1S SUV, both priced over $70,000 in the U.S. 
However, the company is looking to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43214741/rivian-ceo-warns-legacy-automakers-against-underinvesting-in-evs-in-light-of-policy-shift-big-miscalculation-for-long-term">expand its total addressable market</a> with the R2 SUV expected to be priced around $45,000, in the same price range as Tesla&#8217;s best-selling Model Y SUV. R2 is expected to enter production in early 2026.
The company is also planning to start deliveries of its&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37552684/rivian-almost-catches-up-to-teslas-ev-lineup-with-new-r2-r3-but-theres-no-cybertruck-fighter-yet" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">R3 crossover after the R2.</a>&nbsp;The crossover is expected to be priced lower than the R2 SUV but it is unclear whether the R3&#8217;s price will undercut the Tesla Model 3 or remain within the same range. The company unveiled the R3X, a performance variant of the R3, last year when it unveiled the R2 SUV. 
Rivian is slated to report its fourth-quarter results on Feb. 20 at 2 pm PT.
For the full year 2024, Rivian&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/42807694/rivian-reports-2nd-highest-quarterly-ev-deliveries-as-2024-wraps-up" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">delivered 51,579 EVs</a>, within its guidance of 50,500 to 52,000 deliveries.
In the three months through the end of December, the company delivered 14,183 vehicles, its second-highest quarterly delivery numbers since it started deliveries in 2021. &nbsp;

Allianz Chief Economic Advisor Mohamed El-Erian warned that while President Donald Trump&#8216;s evolving tariff strategy may deliver immediate gains, it risks longer-term economic damage through stagflation and eroded U.S. global influence.
What Happened: El-Erian explained on X that the Trump administration&#8217;s tariff strategy follows a three-pronged approach, as highlighted in a Bloomberg Opinion <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2025-02-11/trump-s-early-tariff-wins-mask-future-risks">piece</a> Tuesday: broad duties for revenue and trade balance, targeted protection for industries like steel and aluminum, and strategic tariff threats for political leverage.
&#8220;America&#8217;s many structural advantages and its bigger and cyclically stronger economy give it the upper hand in most negotiations,&#8221; El-Erian wrote, citing recent success in trade disputes with Colombia. However, he cautioned that &#8220;uncertainty is a feature rather than a bug&#8221; in the current approach.

The warning comes as Trump pledged to <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43613133/trumps-25-tarrifs-a-self-inflicted-wound-says-economist-amid-warnings-of-fewer-american-jobs-peter-schiff-says-youll-pay-more-for-cars-and-homes">impose 25% tariffs</a> on metal imports without exemptions, sending U.S. steel stocks like Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CLF#NYSE">CLF</a>) and Nucor Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NUE#NYSE">NUE</a>) soaring on Monday.

Why It Matters: Former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers echoed these concerns, <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43613133/trumps-25-tarrifs-a-self-inflicted-wound-says-economist-amid-warnings-of-fewer-american-jobs-peter-schiff-says-youll-pay-more-for-cars-and-homes">stating on social media </a>that the proposed tariffs would lead to &#8220;fewer American jobs, more American inflation, and probably a bigger trade deficit.&#8221;
El-Erian highlighted particular risks for low-income consumers and companies still recovering from post-pandemic inflation. He argued that frequent use of tariffs could make America &#8220;a less reliable partner,&#8221; potentially reducing bilateral trade interactions.
&#8220;Trade is an intrinsically cooperative game,&#8221; El-Erian noted. &#8220;Playing it uncooperatively can benefit the more powerful party in the short term&#8230; But the longer that international trade is played as an uncooperative game, the bigger the welfare losses to everyone participating, including the U.S.&#8221;

Mohamed El-Erian Says Trump's 'Uncooperative' Tariff Play Can Benefit America, But Could Lead To 'Welfare Losses' In Long-Term

Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) researcher Troy Teslike expects the company&#8217;s EV deliveries in the first quarter to fall below 400,000 units. The EV giant&#8217;s quarterly deliveries have not fallen below 400,000 since the third quarter of 2022. 
What Happened: As per Teslike, who tracks Tesla delivery and production numbers, vehicle deliveries may be negatively impacted by limitations in ramping the production of the refreshed Model Y vehicle, poor brand sentiment, and the seasonal nature of vehicle demand. 
However, vehicle deliveries in the quarter could also be positively impacted by the launch of the new Model Y, the researcher noted.

For the full year 2025, Teslike expects deliveries to be <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43375903/tesla-researcher-estimates-drop-in-ev-deliveries-for-2025-despite-promise-of-new-models">below the numbers reported in 2024</a>.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk said in October that he expects a 20-30% increase in deliveries in 2025. However, the CEO didn&#8217;t reiterate the target during the company&#8217;s fourth-quarter earnings in January. Instead, Tesla only said that it expects the vehicle business to &#8220;return to growth&#8221; in 2025. 
&#8220;I interpret this to mean Tesla's target is 1,790,000 units. This looks difficult to me. My estimate is lower,&#8221; Teslike said on Tuesday.

Why It Matters: Tesla launched the refreshed version of Model Y, its best-selling vehicle, in January. 
The company commenced production of the refreshed vehicle less than two weeks ago across its four vehicle factories around the world in Califonia, Texas, Shanghai, and Berlin. Deliveries of the vehicle are slated to start in March.
Musk&nbsp;said during the company's earnings call last month that the company will&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43328898/elon-musk-warns-teslas-new-model-y-will-result-in-several-weeks-of-lost-production-for-ev-giant-in-q1" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">lose production in the days of retooling&nbsp;</a>factories to prepare for production of the refreshed vehicle. The CEO also warned that margins will be impacted due to idle capacity and other ramp-related costs. However, these challenges will be overcome once production is ramped, he said.
Tesla last reported quarterly deliveries below 400,000 units <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/education/24/10/41166723/how-many-evs-has-tesla-delivered-produced-each-quarter-a-look-at-the-results-since-2019">in the third quarter of 2022</a>. The company delivered just 365,923 vehicles in that quarter. 
In the last quarter of 2024, Tesla reported 495,570 deliveries after resorting to offers and discounts across geographies.

CVS Health, Kraft Heinz And 3 Stocks To Watch Heading Into Wednesday

Shopify Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SHOP#NYSE">SHOP</a>) announced that it has captured 12% of the U.S. e-commerce market share, expanding from its origins as a platform for small businesses.
What Happened: During its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/25/02/43636620/shopifys-revenue-growth-outpaces-estimates-but-paypal-related-margin-impact-raises-questions-analyst">fourth quarter of 2024 earnings call</a>, the e-commerce giant revealed this milestone alongside a strategic push into enterprise-level commerce. As of June 2022, Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) dominated the U.S. e-commerce market with a 37.8% share, according <a href="https://www.statista.com/statistics/274255/market-share-of-the-leading-retailers-in-us-e-commerce/">to</a> Statista.
The company&#8217;s enterprise momentum has accelerated notably, with major brands including Reebok, Champion, Warner Music Group, and David&#8217;s Bridal joining the platform in the fourth quarter. Shopify President Harley Finkelstein highlighted a dramatic shift in enterprise interest, noting that &#8220;pretty much every retailer and every major brand on the planet is now looking to Shopify,&#8221; a marked change from just 12 months ago.

Why It Matters: A key competitive advantage has emerged in Shopify&#8217;s implementation speed, with the platform capable of launching major brands in three months compared to the traditional 12-18-month timeline. This efficiency is complemented by a significant cost advantage, with Ernst &amp; Young reporting that Shopify&#8217;s architecture enables a 22% lower cost of ownership for enterprise retailers.
The company has strengthened its enterprise position through strategic partnerships with major system integrators including WPP, EY, IBM, and Oracle, who are building dedicated Shopify implementation practices. 
Shopify has a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/SHOP/analyst-ratings">consensus price target</a> of $100.69 from 35 analysts, with a high of $175 and a low of $65. Recent ratings from Citigroup, RBC Capital, and Wedbush average $143.33, implying a 16.11% upside.

Warner Bros Discovery (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WBD#NASDAQ">WBD</a>) and Jinjiang International have unveiled plans to establish a &#8220;Harry Potter Studio Tour&#8221; in Shanghai. This venture is part of a broader renovation project, with the opening slated for 2027.
What Happened: Warner Bros and Chinese conglomerate Jinjiang International have decided to construct a &#8220;Harry Potter Studio Tour&#8221; in Shanghai, reported Reuters. The planned theme park will give visitors a glimpse into the making of the Harry Potter movies and recreate memorable scenes in an area spanning over 53,000 square meters. However, the project is yet to receive regulatory approval.
This will be the third &#8220;Harry Potter Studio Tour&#8221; by Warner Bros globally, joining the existing locations in London and Tokyo, but is likely to be nearly four times bigger than the London park inaugurated in 2012. 
Although foreign films account for only a small portion of China&#8217;s total box office due to strict quotas and a strong preference for local productions, the Harry Potter series remains hugely popular in the country.
The tour is designed to give visitors an immersive experience, highlighting the magic of filmmaking, the brilliant designs, and the unique creativity behind the Harry Potter films, while offering an in-depth exploration of the magical world of Harry Potter.

Discovery Analyst Says DTC Strength Won&#8217;t Offset &#8216;Joker: Folie A Deux&#8217; Flop, NBA Rights Concerns</a>
Why It Matters:&nbsp;This move comes in the wake of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42468724/warner-bros-discovery-restructures-with-focus-on-streaming-and-tv-divisions-stock-shoots-up">Warner Bros. Discovery&#8217;s restructuring plan</a>, approved in December 2024. The new corporate structure divided Warner Bros. Discovery into two distinct operating divisions: Global Linear Networks and Streaming &amp; Studios. 
The latter division, which includes film and entertainment studios, is responsible for managing its intellectual property portfolio. The upcoming &#8220;Harry Potter Studio Tour&#8221; in Shanghai is a part of this division aimed at leveraging the company&#8217;s intellectual property to expand its global footprint.
Warner Bros. has been growing the Harry Potter franchise beyond films, exploring ventures such as the Fantastic Beasts spin-off, theater productions, studio tours, video games, and a new TV series set to debut on Max in 2026.
As per a company filing in October, Warner Bros&#8217; Harry Potter studio tour near London surpassed £100 million (approximately $124 million) in profit for the year ended December 2022 while generating over 100 new jobs to meet the growing demand for the attraction.

As DoorDash Inc.&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DASH#NASDAQ">DASH</a>) user base exploded to 42 million monthly active users with order frequency at an all-time high, its grocery and retail vertical saw stellar growth along with the aforementioned metrics in the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/restaurants/25/02/43641832/doordash-shares-climb-after-solid-q4-results-total-orders-grew-19-gov-increased-21">fourth quarter</a>.
What Happened: DoorDash&#8217;s customers were ordering from all categories, explained the company CFO Ravi Inukonda during its earnings call. &#8220;We are the fastest growing in the U.S., we&#8217;ve gained share in new verticals through the year,&#8221; he said.
Emphasizing the grocery segment penetration Inukonda added &#8220;There are several countries where new verticals and grocery penetration in the international portfolio is actually higher than what we&#8217;re seeing in the U.S.&#8221;
DoorDash highlighted its current 42 million monthly active users are growing in double-digits and the record order frequency at an &#8220;all-time high&#8221; indicates strong user engagement and platform stickiness. 
Furthermore, talking about DashPass subscriptions co-founder and CEO, Tony Xu said that they have over 100 million customers, who order with the brand annually and its DashPass and Wolt+ subscribers were only in &#8220;the tens of millions.&#8221;
&#8220;So we have a large fraction of our customer base within our own ecosystem that are not subscribers. So that&#8217;s the first thing we have to go and solve,&#8221; added Xu.

Total orders rose to 685 million, up 19% year-over-year. Marketplace GOV, which stands total dollar value of orders completed in the company&#8217;s marketplaces, increased by 21% to $21.3 billion.
The company anticipates its adjusted EBITDA, as a percentage of Marketplace GOV, will grow sequentially throughout the year, increasing from the first quarter to the second quarter, and again from the second quarter to the third quarter. CFO added that DoorDash was &#8220;very confident with the outlook for the full-year.&#8221;
Price Action: The shares rose by 0.24% to $193.09 apiece on Tuesday and advanced by 5.71% in after-hours, whereas the exchange-traded fun tracking Nasdaq 100 index, Invesco QQQ Trust, Series 1 (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>) fell 0.24%.
