Paycor HCM Inc

In an interview earlier this week, Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Sundar Pichai responded to Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) CEO Satya Nadella&#8216;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/23/06/32881859/microsoft-ceo-satya-nadella-wants-real-competition-with-google-as-companys-stock-reaches-all-time-">comments about making</a> Google &#8220;dance&#8221; after the introduction of new Bing.
What Happened: On Wednesday, in an interview <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-05-08/video-alphabet-ceo-sundar-pichai-lays-out-google-s-ai-roadmap">with</a> Bloomberg, Pichai dismissed Nadella&#8217;s remarks about the &#8220;new Bing&#8221; and the need for Google to &#8220;dance&#8221; to its tune. &#8220;One of the ways you can do the wrong thing is by listening to noise out there and playing to someone else&#8217;s dance music,&#8221; he said. 
Microsoft announced its &#8220;New Bing,&#8221; powered by OpenAI&#8217;s ChatGPT, in February 2023. That same month, Nadella said, &#8220;I want people to know that we made them dance.&#8221;

Nadella also stated that he had been waiting for&nbsp;20 years to compete with&nbsp;Google and that&nbsp;it &#8220;should have been the&nbsp;default winner&#8221; of the Big&nbsp;Tech AI race.
Despite Google&#8217;s early investment in&nbsp;AI and&nbsp;its resources and talent, Microsoft&nbsp;took the lead in&nbsp;the AI race when it <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/01/36561409/microsofts-13b-investment-in-openai-comes-under-scrutiny-of-european-competition-regulator">partnered with OpenAI</a> and launched&nbsp;the new Bing and 365&nbsp;Copilot, an AI-powered productivity tool&nbsp;for Microsoft apps.
Google was reportedly caught off guard. When ChatGPT was launched in 2022, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/22/12/30170477/chatgpt-popularity-reportedly-leads-to-google-declaring-code-red-as-sundar-pichai-increases-involvem-1">Google allegedly&nbsp;issued a &#8220;code red&#8221;</a> to employees about the potential threat&nbsp;to its search business. The&nbsp;company also refocused its AI&nbsp;strategy following the new competition.

However, Google is now catching up, leveraging&nbsp;its massive user base to&nbsp;promote its AI products. The company recently announced that it is developing its own AI chips and is intensifying&nbsp;its AI efforts with a&nbsp;series of cloud advancements, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38175771/googles-gemini-1-5-pro-ai-could-change-how-you-play-games-and-file-insurance-claims">general availability</a> of TPU v5p,&nbsp;the new release of Gemini&nbsp;1.5, and various AI additions&nbsp;to Google Workspace.
Why It Matters: Pichai&#8217;s response comes in the wake of a challenging period for Google. The company has been facing increased scrutiny over its ability to keep pace with competitors, with some analysts even calling for a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37440362/analysts-are-calling-for-google-ceo-sundar-pichai-to-step-down-despite-companys-massive-growth-under">leadership change at the tech giant</a>.
Earlier this year, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37579583/google-ceos-anxiety-exposed-leaked-email-reveals-how-sundar-pichai-was-spooked-about-losing-talent-e">Pichai&#8217;s anxiety about losing talent</a> to rivals, especially Apple Inc., was exposed in a leaked email. Amid an ongoing antitrust lawsuit brought by the U.S. Department of Justice, Pichai has reportedly kept a close watch on the loss of key talent to rivals, particularly Apple.
Following this, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38334324/sundar-pichai-announces-restructure-after-google-fires-protesting-employees-too-important-a-moment-a">Google announced a restructuring</a> after firing 28 employees for protesting against the company&#8217;s cloud deal with Israel. Pichai emphasized the need for focus, collaboration and respectful disagreements within the company, while announcing a restructuring of Google&#8217;s devices and mobile software divisions.

Sundar Pichai Finally Responds To Microsoft CEO's Comments About Making Google Dance: 'One Of The Ways You Can Do The Wrong Thing Is By ... Playing To Someone Else's Dance Music'

Electric vehicle stocks retreated in the week that ended on May 10 amid profit taking, with<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/05/38653616/lucid-q1-earnings-highlights-revenue-beat-eps-miss-production-update-and-more"> some earnings reports from the space</a> weighing down on several stocks.
Here are the key events that happened in the EV space during the week:
Another Key Tesla Executive Departs, China Sales Woe And More: The week did not bring respite to the ongoing right-sizing efforts at Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>). Rich Otto, who served as head of product at the company, announced this week that he was departing after a seven-year stint at the company. In a LinkedIn post that has since been deleted, Otto reportedly said, &#8220;The recent layoffs that are rocking the company and its morale have thrown this harmony out of balance and it&#8217;s hard to see the long-game.&#8221;
In another development, Tesla removed most job postings on its website, with the North American websites listing just three open manufacturing jobs. Gizmodo <a href="https://gizmodo.com/tesla-hiring-freeze-job-postings-elon-musk-layoffs-1851464758">reported,</a> citing an archived version of Tesla&#8217;s career page, that as of May 1, had listed 3,400 jobs openings in the U.S., Mexico and Canada.
Although Tesla nearly disbanded its Supercharger network team, it could expand the network, according to comments from CEO Elon Musk. 
&#8220;Just to reiterate: Tesla will spend well over $500M expanding our Supercharger network to create thousands of NEW chargers this year,&#8221; he said in a post on X.
&#8220;That's just on new sites and expansions, not counting operations costs, which are much higher,&#8221; he added.
Tesla&#8217;s troubles in China appear to continue. Data released by the China Passenger Car Association showed that the company shipped 62,617 made-in-China EVs in April, down 18% year-over-year, with 30,746 units of those meant to be exports, CnEVPost <a href="https://cnevpost.com/2024/05/10/tesla-apr-2024-sales-in-china/">reported.</a> Domestic sales totaled 31,421 units, marking a decrease of approximately 50% from the previous month and a decline of over 21% compared to the same period last year.
Reports suggested that Tesla sent former China head Tom Zhu back to the country as the company struggles with sagging sales amid competitive pressure. Zhu was promoted to Tesla&#8217;s top leadership team last year and was stationed in Austin.

Rivian Earnings, Apple Rumor: Startup Rivian Automotive, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>) reported first-quarter revenue that exceeded estimates; however, loss per share widened compared to a year ago. On a positive note, the company maintained its 2024 production forecasts of 57,000 units. CFO Claire McDonough said on the earnings call that the 2024 capital expenditure guidance stands reduced by $550 million to $1.2 billion, attributing the cut to the savings stemming from a decision to move the first line of R2 production to the company&#8217;s Normal, Illinois plant.
The stock received a shot in the arm early this week after DigiTimes reported that Apple, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) is &#8220;assessing the possibility of teaming up with a certain U.S. EV startup, and Rivian is a very likely candidate.&#8221; Both companies, however, did not clarify on the rumor.
Fisker Files For Insolvency In Austria: Beleaguered EV maker Fisker, Inc.&#8217;s (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FSRN#OTC">FSRN</a>) Austrian unit Fisker GmbH voluntarily filed for bankruptcy protection on Tuesday. The subsidiary clarified that no other Fisker entities are included in the restructuring. The company faced more negative headlines this week, with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opening another investigation into potential issues with the Ocean electric SUV's automatic emergency braking.
Pushback For China EV Makers? The Biden administration is set to act to protect the domestic EV industry from Chinese competition. Wall Street Journal <a href="https://www.wsj.com/economy/trade/biden-to-quadruple-tariffs-on-chinese-evs-203127bf">reported</a> that the White House will announce on Tuesday tariffs on Chinese imports in strategic sectors such as EVs.
The report said the U.S. would maintain existing tariffs on many Chinese goods set by former President Donald Trump, while adding new tariffs to semiconductors and solar equipment. The government is also reportedly planning to hike EV tariffs, which are likely to quadruple.
Ford Slows European EV Plans: Legacy automaker Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) has gone back on its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/21/02/19702111/ford-to-go-all-electric-in-europe-by-2030-cnbc">plan to fully transition to battery EVs in Europe by 2030.</a> Martin Sander, head of Ford&#8217;s passenger cars business in Europe, <a href="https://europe.autonews.com/automakers/ford-revises-plan-be-all-electric-europe">said</a> at the Financial Times Future of the Car Summit on Tuesday that demand for pureplay EVs has been softer than the company expected.
The company will continue to sell internal combustion engine cars beyond 2030 if customers demand them and will focus on selling plug-in hybrids, he said.
The KraneShares Electric Vehicles and Future Mobility&nbsp;Index ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KARS#NYSE">KARS</a>) ended Friday&#8217;s session down 1.87% at $22.14, according to <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/lxquj26b2sag">Benzinga Pro data.</a> For the week, the ETF fell 2.55%.

Benzinga Bulls And Bears: Nvidia, Starbucks, Palantir And Crypto Investor's Playbook For Making 'MemeMillions' From Shiba Inu, Dogecoin

In 2018, TikTok user&nbsp;Kayleigh Donahue packed her bags in Rhode Island and jetted off to Dublin, Ireland, for what she thought would be a year-long adventure. Fast forward, and that year stretched into four rich, eye-opening years. Though she&#8217;s now moved back to the US, she still misses many things about European life. 
Let&#8217;s dive into five areas where Donahue believes Europe outshines the U.S.

In Europe, zipping across to multiple countries without emptying your wallet is the norm, thanks to an array of budget airlines like Ryanair and EasyJet. Living in Ireland, Donahue managed to explore over 10 countries, from Italy to Greece, often snagging flight deals for as little as 20 euros. The convenience and affordability of travel in Europe allowed her to immerse herself in diverse cultures and landscapes, something that would have been much pricier back home.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Generous Paid Time Off</h3>

Image: Dall-E 3</figcaption></figure>
Europe takes work-life balance seriously. In her stint there, she enjoyed 29 paid vacation days, plus public holidays, adding up to roughly 40 days off per year. That&#8217;s a stark contrast to the US, where many don&#8217;t even get paid time off. European companies don&#8217;t just offer vacation; they encourage you to take it to recharge fully.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Multilingual Culture</h3>

Unlike the US, where bilingualism isn&#8217;t as emphasized, Europe thrives on multilingualism. From Dutch to Portuguese, the people she met in Dublin could easily switch between languages, something that both impressed and inspired Donahue.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Quality And Prices Of Food</h3>

Image: Dall-E 3</figcaption></figure>
The quality and affordability of fresh produce in Europe were a revelation. Markets brimming with fresh fruits, vegetables, and artisanal products like bread and cheese were regular sights. In Ireland, Donahue spent about $50 weekly on groceries, a figure that has at least tripled since returning to Boston.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Affordable College Tuition</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/2024/05/10103004/europe-better-than-america-5-1024x576.jpeg" alt="Pursuing higher education in Europe also proved more economical.

Tuition fees in Europe can be a fraction of those in the US. Donahue earned her master&#8217;s degree from Trinity College Dublin for about $20,000 per year — half of what she would have paid stateside. This affordability makes higher education more accessible and less financially daunting in Europe.

Mother's Day 2024: Heartfelt Ways To Make Mom's Day Special, No Matter The Distance

Former President Donald Trump criticized the gag order imposed on his ex-lawyer Michael Cohen by Judge Juan Merchan in the ongoing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38751527/stormy-daniels-says-nobody-would-ever-want-to-publicly-say-they-had-sex-with-trump-as-ex-presidents">hush money trial</a>, branding it a &#8220;joke&#8221; and a &#8220;disgrace.&#8221;
What Happened: Trump expressed his disapproval of the gag order during his hush money trial on Friday, <a href="https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/4656568-trump-disgrace-judge-merchan-michael-cohen">reported</a> The Hill. The order restricts Cohen from discussing the case publicly as his testimony nears.
Trump&#8217;s legal team has repeatedly criticized Cohen&#8217;s public criticisms, arguing that the ex-president&#8217;s ability to respond is limited under the terms of the gag order.
Trump&#8217;s attorney, Todd Blanche, requested that Cohen be prohibited from speaking publicly in the same way that Trump is restricted. Judge Merchan directed prosecutors to inform Cohen to refrain from making any further statements about the case.
Cohen is expected to testify on Monday and has been identified as a key witness for the district attorney&#8217;s office. He made a $130,000 hush money payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, who alleged she had an affair with Trump in 2006, a claim he denies.

Trump&#8217;s gag order prevents him from attacking witnesses, jurors, prosecutors, court staff, and the judge&#8217;s family. However, it does not prevent him from criticizing the judge or Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
Why It Matters: The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/05/38687167/stormy-daniels-wants-trump-to-be-held-accountable-go-to-jail-former-presidents-lawyers-call-for-">criminal trial</a> against Trump alleges that he falsified business records for a hush money payment made to Daniels. The trial has seen several key witnesses, including Daniels herself, take the stand.
Daniels testified that she never asked for the money, which Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/05/38749159/stormy-daniels-says-she-never-asked-for-money-in-trump-hush-money-case-former-president-declares">allegedly paid</a> to keep their affair a secret. Trump has consistently criticized the trial, calling it &#8220;fake&#8221; and asserting his innocence.
Earlier this week, Judge Merchan found Trump in violation of the gag order for the 10th time and ordered him to pay a $1,000 fine for attacking jurors. Trump stated he would be <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/politics/24/05/38771094/trump-lashes-out-at-fake-hush-money-criminal-trial-ahead-of-michael-cohens-monday-testimony-id-b">&#8220;very proud&#8221; to go to jail</a> for violating the gag order.

Trump Slams Judge's Gag Order On His Former Lawyer As 'A Disgrace:' 'What He Just Did Now Is A Joke'

Wedbush analyst&nbsp;Dan Ives&nbsp;is of the opinion that China would retaliate if the U.S. were to increase tariffs on electric vehicle imports from China. 
What Happened: &#8220;Retaliatory definitely could happen. This Game of Thrones continues to play out,&#8221; Ives said in an<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3F328rYMaM"> interview</a> with Bloomberg. As per an exclusive report from The Wall Street Journal, the Biden administration is planning to raise the tariffs on China&#8217;s EVs from 25% to around 100%, with an additional 2.5% duty on all imported cars into the U.S.
Low-cost EVs from China entering the U.S. market would pose a significant challenge to EV giant Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) as well as other traditional U.S. automakers who have made substantial investments in EVs, Ives said. However, retaliatory action is a concern, he added.
Why It Matters: The Biden administration&#8217;s decision to impose new tariffs on China&#8217;s EVs is part of a broader strategy to target strategic sectors. The new tariffs, which are expected to be announced as soon as next week, will<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38758049/biden-plans-new-tariffs-on-china-targets-electric-vehicles-and-other-strategic-sectors-report"> reportedly also cover batteries and solar cells</a>. This move is likely to have significant implications for the global EV market and could potentially escalate trade tensions between the U.S. and China.

China Likely To Retaliate Against US Tariffs On Electric Vehicles, Says Top Analyst Dan Ives: 'Game Of Thrones Continues To Play Out'

Why It Matters: The sun has produced moderate to strong solar flares since Wednesday. Solar material eruptions that accompany these flares, called coronal mass ejections (CMEs), cause geomagnetic storms when they reach Earth&#8217;s surface. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) issued a warning of a geomagnetic storm for Friday evening and said that storm conditions may last through the weekend. 
The solar storm hitting Earth could produce displays of aurora in the U.S. as far south as Northern California and also pose the risk of disrupting power and communications due to their impact on infrastructure in near-Earth orbit and Earth&#8217;s surface, the NOAA said, while adding that it has already warned these system operators to take protective actions.
&#8220;This is an unusual and potentially historic event,&#8221; NOAA&#8217;s Space Weather Prediction Center Director Clinton Wallace said about the storm. &nbsp;

Elon Musk Says SpaceX Satellites Impacted By Ongoing Solar Storm: '…But Holding Up So Far'

OpenAI COO Brad Lightcap on Thursday said that it is still premature to assess the complete economic impact of artificial intelligence.
What Happened: Speaking at Bloomberg&#8217;s Tech <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2024-05-10/openai-coo-says-it-s-too-soon-to-see-ai-s-full-impact-on-economy?srnd=technology-vp">Summit</a>, Lightcap said that the rise of generative AI has not yet significantly transformed the economy. However, he and other AI leaders anticipate more substantial changes in the future.
Despite the initial excitement surrounding AI&#8217;s potential to revolutionize&nbsp;productivity and create new jobs, the actual impact has been&nbsp;more subtle. While there have&nbsp;been some AI-driven layoffs, entire professions have not been replaced or created. It remains unclear how much additional work AI has facilitated.
Earlier this year, Jerome Powell, the chair of the Federal Reserve, stated that while generative AI can enhance productivity growth, it is unlikely to do so in the immediate future.

Lightcap suggested that it is still too early to determine whether the potential of AI has been overhyped. He humorously remarked that reshaping the economy within a year would be a tall order. &#8220;We have a year to reshape the economy? That's a tall order!&#8221;
If OpenAI were to cease all future AI development, which is not the case, Nightcap suggested that it would still require considerable time for the complete ramifications of its existing models to materialize. However, he is &#8220;fairly confident at this point that there would be this 10- to 20-year diffusion period through the economy of just GPT-4 level technology.&#8221;
Other AI leaders at the event echoed Lightcap&#8217;s sentiments, emphasizing the technology&#8217;s long-term disruptive potential despite its relatively muted early effects.
&#8220;We are probably going to overestimate this technology in the short-term,&#8221; said Clement Delangue, chief executive officer of Hugging Face. &#8220;Maybe we're going to be disappointed in a year, or two years, but we've also probably underestimated the long-term impact of AI in 10 years. The world is going to be very different.&#8221;

Why It Matters: OpenAI and other AI companies are actively preparing for this future. OpenAI, for instance,&nbsp;has been expanding its enterprise&nbsp;business,&nbsp;selling a customized version of&nbsp;ChatGPT to numerous corporate clients. Moreover, on Friday, it was also reported that&nbsp;Apple Inc. is on the verge of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38774065/apple-chooses-sam-altman-led-openai-to-integrate-chatgpt-into-iphone-deal-almost-done-report">integrating ChatGPT into its iPhones</a>. 
Meanwhile, OpenAI&#8217;s CEO,&nbsp;Sam Altman, has&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38774244/openais-sam-altman-shoots-down-search-engine-and-gpt-5-rumors-teases-may-13-event-some-new-stuff-peo">denied rumors of developing</a> a search engine or launching GPT-5, instead teasing &#8220;some new stuff&#8221; the company is working on.

OpenAI Top Exec Says It's Too Early To Gauge AI's Full Economic Impact: 'We've A Year To Reshape The Economy? That's A Tall Order'

Whitney Wolfe Herd, the founder of Bumble Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMBL#NASDAQ">BMBL</a>), has suggested that artificial intelligence (AI) could revolutionize the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/05/38733540/bumble-could-close-value-gap-to-tinders-parent-company-expert-predicts-45-upside-on">online dating industry</a>.
What Happened: Herd discussed the potential of AI in modern dating at the <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/videos/2024-05-09/how-bumble-will-use-ai-to-create-healthier-relationships">Bloomberg</a> Technology Summit.
She proposed the idea of an &#8220;AI dating concierge&#8221; that could help users navigate their insecurities and even go on dates on their behalf. Herd believes that AI could alleviate the pressure on human users and foster healthy relationships.
She also suggested that AI could teach users how to flirt, potentially addressing the issue of the average U.S. single not dating due to a lack of confidence or fear.

&#8220;If you want to get really out there, there is a world where your dating concierge could go and date for you with [an]other dating concierge,&#8221; she said. "No. No. Truly," she reiterated her stance when the audience gasped and chuckled.
Why It Matters: These comments come after <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/11/35641406/heres-why-bumbles-founder-and-ceo-whitney-wolfe-herd-is-stepping-down-after-nearly-10-years">Herd&#8217;s resignation</a> as Bumble&#8217;s CEO in January 2024 after a decade-long tenure at the top, with Lidiane Jones taking over.
Under Jones&#8217; leadership, Bumble has made significant changes, such as removing the requirement for women to send the first message, a feature that was previously a signature of the app.
Besides, Herd&#8217;s vision for AI in online dating is not entirely new. In a previous interview, she spoke about the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/08/34147942/combating-loneliness-with-artificial-intelligence-bumbles-new-approach-to-relationship-building">potential of AI</a> to transform relationships, acknowledging the concerns around AI&#8217;s impact on human companionship.
Price Action: Bumble's shares closed at $11.45 on Friday, unchanged from the previous close, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Tired Of Swiping Left And Right? Bumble Founder Says AI Could Do It For You: 'No. No. Truly'

Morgan Stanley&nbsp;analyst&nbsp;Adam Jonas sees Tesla Inc&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) upcoming shareholder vote driving material volatility in the stock and determining the company&#8217;s long-term strategic direction as company CEO Elon Musk&#8216;s pay package hangs in limbo. 
Analyst Recommendation: For the upcoming shareholder meeting scheduled for June, Tesla shareholders will vote again on Musk&#8217;s 2018 pay package which was rescinded by a Delaware court earlier this year after deeming it an &#8220;unfathomable sum.&#8221; The package was worth $56 billion at the time of award. 
The outcome of the vote on the package will be key to determining if the CEO gets a 25% voting block within the company, Jonas said in a note on Friday. Musk has previously expressed discomfort with advancing Tesla in the field of AI without having 25% voting. While the approval of the pay package by itself does not assure the CEO of his desired voting block, it would make it &#8220;increasingly difficult&#8221; for Musk to achieve <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/01/36652560/elon-musk-wants-to-own-25-of-tesla-heres-how-much-of-the-ev-stock-the-ceo-owns">25% ownership </a>if the package is rejected, the analyst noted.
Tesla&#8217;s AI potential will remain limited and its share price dominated by larger EV market developments until Musk&#8217;s voting control issue is resolved, Jonas said. &#8220;This is extremely problematic for Tesla investors for a number of reasons, including the inability to quantify the impact,&#8221; he said. 
The attention being paid to the performance of the stock since the start of the year, however, is &#8216;surprisingly little,&#8217; the analyst noted. 
Why It Matters: Tesla&#8217;s annual meeting will be held on June 13, 2024, at 3:30 p.m. Central Time (CT).&nbsp;Shareholders will vote both on moving Tesla&#8217;s state of incorporation from Delaware to Texas and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38288360/breaking-tesla-shareholders-to-vote-again-on-ceo-elon-musks-voided-47b-pay-package">Musk&#8217;s rescinded pay package</a>. 
Price Action:&nbsp;Tesla shares closed down 2% on Friday at $168.47. The stock is down 32.2% year-to-date, as per data from&nbsp;<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Tesla Analyst Sees Annual Shareholder Meeting As Key To Determining Elon Musk-Led Company's Future Strategy

New York-listed shares of ZEEKR Intelligent Technology Holding Limited&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZK#NYSE">ZK</a>) closed nearly 35% higher than <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/05/38756035/chinas-zeekr-prices-us-ipo-at-top-end-of-estimated-range-whats-on-the-cards">its initial public offering price</a> on its first day of trading on Friday. 
What Happened: ZEEKR, the global electric mobility technology brand of Chinese automaker&nbsp;Geely Automobile&nbsp;Holding&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GELYY#OTC">GELYY</a>), had priced its U.S. initial public offering (IPO) of&nbsp;21 million American Depositary Shares (ADS) at&nbsp;$21&nbsp;per share. 
The shares of Tesla Inc&#8217;s Chinese rival closed at $28.26 on Friday after opening at $26, giving the company a fully diluted valuation of $6.8 billion.
"There are huge demands and opportunities in the global new energy vehicle market. Zeekr is positioned as a premium electric mobility brand and is an important pillar supporting Geely's electric transformation. I believe that Zeekr will be able to seize this historic opportunity and become a sustainable business that unlocks long-term value for users, investors and society,&#8221; Geely Holding Chief Executive Daniel Li said. Geely also owns Volvo Cars and Lotus Cars.
Why It Matters: Zeekr started delivering its vehicles in October 2021, and the brand has delivered over 240,000 vehicles to date. The company has announced plans to sell vehicles in European, Middle Eastern, and other Asian markets. 
Zeekr disclosed a surge in total revenue to 51.67 billion yuan&nbsp;($7.15 billion)&nbsp;in 2023, but its net loss widened to 8.26 billion yuan.&nbsp;
Zeekr&#8217;s debut on the New York Stock Exchange comes as other U.S. EV makers have been<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38699990/tesla-stock-is-sliding-wednesday-whats-going-on"> facing a stock slump</a>. Tesla stock has slumped 32.2% year-to-date while Rivian stock has slumped nearly 52.7%.

Chinese Tesla Rival Zeekr Soars 35% On NYSE Debut, Valuation Hits $6.8B

Elon Musk hit back at the Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese after he talked about the need for a "social license" as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/24/05/38751844/australia-calls-for-inquiry-into-metas-facebook-elon-musks-x-tiktok-to-make-these-platforms-accounta">his government intensified scrutiny</a> of social media platforms.
What Happened: Musk, the single largest shareholder of X, formerly Twitter, slammed the Australian government, implying that a "social license" would amount to "suppressing" the rights of Australians.
His response was in reaction to the Australian government&#8217;s criticism of social media platforms for not promptly removing violent posts. The government is seeking more oversight over content posted on Meta&#8217;s Facebook, TikTok, and Musk&#8217;s X.

"With social media comes the need for a social license and a social responsibility," Albanese said in a press conference.
Reacting to it, Musk posted, "I doubt that the people of Australia agree with suppressing their rights."

OpenAI's Sam Altman Shoots Down Search Engine And GPT-5 Rumors, Teases May 13 Event: 'Some New Stuff…People Will Love'

Protestors against Tesla Inc&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) expansion efforts at its gigafactory in Berlin on Friday attempted to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/05/38764576/tesla-german-gigafactory-faces-climate-protestors-friday-why-are-they-not-jailed-musk-asks">storm the company&#8217;s factory</a>, damaged several of the company&#8217;s EVs, and even injured several police officers.
What Happened: According to the protest organizing group Disrupt Tesla, about 800 people took part in the protests on Friday. The protestors are against the expansion of the company&#8217;s facilities, which they deem to be harmful to the environment. The EV giant is aiming to double the plant's capacity for battery production to 100-gigawatt hours and car production to 1 million units annually.
&#8220;Tesla stands for labor accidents, water scarcity, deforestation, environmental pollution and exploitation here and worldwide,&#8221; Disrupt Tesla alleged. 
As per the Police in Brandenburg, 16 people were taken into custody as of 7 p.m. on Friday. The protestors temporarily blocked roads and rail traffic and some even climbed over the fence at Neuhardenberg airfield and damaged 24 Tesla vehicles with paint. Though several tried to enter Tesla&#8217;s factory premises, they were prevented by police personnel, the police department said. 
Police measures and investigations are ongoing, they added.
Tesla CEO Reacts: Tesla CEO Elon Musk on Friday criticized the actions against the company. &#8220;Something super weird is going on, as Tesla was the only car company attacked!,&#8221; Musk said on X while also alleging that there is more to the attacks than what &#8220;meets the eye.&#8221;
&#8220;Any idea who is orchestrating and funding this?,&#8221; Musk asked in another post, hinting at a larger campaign against the company. However, he also claimed that there are a lot of protests around Germany over the week as it is &#8220;National Protest Week&#8221; in the European country.
Tesla had a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38691492/teslas-giga-berlin-shuts-down-but-not-for-as-long-as-you-thought-senior-exec-clarifies">one-day planned production shutdown at the factory</a> on Friday in anticipation of the protests.

Apple Inches Closer To Choosing Sam Altman-Led OpenAI To Integrate ChatGPT On iPhones: Report

The&nbsp;youngest son of former President&nbsp;Donald Trump has turned down the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38720621/barron-trump-steps-into-political-spotlight-as-floridas-at-large-gop-convention-delegate">opportunity&nbsp;to serve as a delegate</a>&nbsp;for Florida at the upcoming Republican National Convention or RNC.
What Happened: Barron Trump declined the offer citing &#8220;prior commitments,&#8221; as per a statement from the office of former First Lady Melania Trump, reported <a href="https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4657094-barron-trump-declines-rnc-delegate/">The Hill</a> on Friday.
&#8220;While Barron is honored to have been chosen as a delegate by the Florida Republican Party, he regretfully declines to participate due to prior commitments,&#8221; read the statement.

Jared Kushner Reportedly Making Calls To Potential Donors To Attend Ex-President&#8217;s New York Fundraiser For 2024 Run</a>
The Florida GOP had earlier announced that Barron Trump would join his siblings, Eric, Tiffany, and Donald Trump Jr., as delegates, with Eric Trump serving as the state&#8217;s delegation chair. The RNC is scheduled to take place in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in mid-July.
Earlier, Donald Trump, said in a radio interview, &#8220;He [Barron] does like politics. It's sort of funny. He'll tell me sometimes, &#8216;Dad, this is what you have to do.&#8217; So anyway, he's a good guy. He's a senior now in high school, and he'll be going to college.&#8221;
Why It Matters: This news comes as a surprise, given Barron Trump&#8217;s recent steps into the political spotlight. Just two days ago, it was reported that Barron Trump was selected as one of Florida&#8217;s at-large delegates for the RNC. This would have been his first official role in politics, alongside his siblings.
Earlier in March, it was reported that Melania Trump had&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37681395/melania-trump-chooses-barron-over-husbands-2024-presidential-campaign-she-dislikes-a-petting-zoo">shifted her focus toward her family</a>, particularly her son Barron, rather than her husband&#8217;s 2024 presidential campaign. At the time, it was reported that she has been dedicated to exploring potential colleges for Barron, and is resolved to accompany him wherever he chooses to pursue his studies.
Despite his family&#8217;s political ties, Barron Trump has been a subject of privacy concerns. In March 2024,&nbsp;Chelsea Clinton spoke out in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/03/37903485/bill-clintons-daughter-speaks-out-in-defense-of-donald-trumps-youngest-sons-privacy-rights-leave-him">defense&nbsp;of Barron Trump&#8217;s privacy rights</a>, urging the media to respect his status as a private citizen.
