Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) has been unanimously confirmed as the 72nd U.S. Secretary of State on Monday.
What Happened: Rubio&#8217;s confirmation as the Secretary of State came on the day of President Trump&#8217;s inauguration, making him the first member of the Cabinet to be confirmed on the same day, <a href="https://thehill.com/policy/international/5096622-senate-confirms-marco-rubio-secretary/">reported</a> The Hill. The confirmation vote saw overwhelming bipartisan support, with a 99-0 vote, including Rubio&#8217;s own vote.
Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) praised Rubio for his grasp of American foreign policy and his commitment to the American dream. Rubio&#8217;s Senate seat will be filled by Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody.
&#8220;No one on this body can doubt that Marco Rubio is an intelligent man with remarkable understanding of American foreign policy and a very deep commitment to the American dream,&#8221; said Grassley.
Descending from Cuban immigrants, Rubio&#8217;s appointment marks him as the first Latino American to serve as the top U.S. diplomat. His nomination has been a source of relief for lawmakers and allies abroad, who were concerned about Trump&#8217;s unpredictable approach to foreign affairs.
Rubio, a 14-year Senator, co-sponsored legislation aimed at preventing any president from withdrawing from NATO. During his confirmation hearing, he raised concerns about Chinese companies operating near the Panama Canal, citing national security risks.

$100 Invested In CyberArk Software 10 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

Elon Musk's complex relationship with his eldest daughter, Vivian Jenna Wilson, has reportedly significantly influenced his recent life choices, including selling off his luxurious homes. Despite his efforts, it appears this move didn't have the outcome he had hoped for.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Painful Rift</h2>
Musk's relationship with Vivian, formerly Xavier (after Elon&#8217;s favorite character in the X-Men comics), took a sharp turn four to five years ago. As Walter Isaacson, Musk&#8217;s biographer, told in an <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BDmC5u_MLE">interview</a>, Vivian announced her transition to him in a note saying, "I'm transitioning, my name is now Jenna and don't tell my father."&nbsp;
She later legally changed her name and chose her mother's maiden name, signaling her desire to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/07/39975349/elon-musks-transgender-daughter-vivian-wilson-speaks-out-about-fathers-absence-and-cruelty-hes-very">distance herself from Musk</a>.

If They Could Show A Plan For Ending World Hunger He'd Donate $6 Billion – ‘I Will Sell Tesla Stock Right Now And Do It'</a></li>
</ul>
While Musk initially publicly supported her transition, he revealed in Walter Isaacson's biography that the real pain came from her total rejection of him. Vivian has reportedly embraced anticapitalist views, hates billionaires and believes capitalism is theft. Musk's attempts to connect with her have so far been unsuccessful.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Selling His Homes to Please Her</h2>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
In 2020, Musk boldly declared on X, announcing that he was selling almost all of his possessions, including his homes, stating, "Possession just weighs you down." At the time, he owned a sprawling real estate portfolio, according to Business Insider, including:
<ul>
<li>A $17 million mansion in Bel Air with a pool, tennis court and breathtaking views he bought in 2012. Listed in 2020 at $30 million.</li>
<li>Gene Wilder's former home, purchased for $6.75 million, which he later sold to Wilder&#8217;s nephew for $7 million. After a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40477567/elon-musk-who-once-vowed-to-own-no-home-now-foreclosing-on-filmmakers-7m-childhood-house">recent foreclosure</a>, it&#8217;s listed for $9.5 million.</li>
<li>He bought several other Bel Air properties for $24 million, $20 million, $4.3 million and $4.2 million. In 2020, they were listed for a collective $62.5 million and sold six months later.</li>
<li>A 16,000-square-foot Bay Area mansion was purchased for $23.4 million and sold for $30 million.</li>

Musk listed these properties and sold them in quick succession, ultimately <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/startups/24/02/36962520/elon-musks-75-year-old-mother-says-she-sleeps-on-mattresses-or-blankets-on-the-floor-or-in-the-garag">downsizing to a tiny $50,000 prefab house</a> near SpaceX's Starbase in Texas. He hoped living modestly would align with Vivian's anticapitalist values and possibly mend their relationship. As Isaacson put it, he thought that by selling all five of his pretty nice homes, he would just live very frugally, which would please her. Unfortunately, his efforts didn&#8217;t bear fruit.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Political Shift</h2>
The rift with Vivian is just one piece of a broader evolution in Musk's political and social views. Once a center-left donor who supported Barack Obama and voted for Hillary Rodham Clinton and Joe Biden in 2016 and 2020, respectively, Musk has become increasingly critical of what he calls the "woke mind virus."&nbsp;
He attributes some of this shift to his daughter's rejection and the influence of her progressive Los Angeles school, Crossroads. Musk has also voiced frustrations over issues like COVID-19 lockdowns and gender ideology, which he believes have gone too far.

President Donald Trump named Mark Uyeda, a Republican member of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), acting chair of the agency.
What Happened: The White House <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/designation-of-chairmen-and-acting-chairmen/">confirmed</a> Uyedas&#8217;s role as acting chair of the agency. 
Trump picked former SEC Commissioner Paul Atkins to oversee the SEC permanently, but Congress must approve the nomination.

Uyeda temporarily takes over duties from Gary Gensler, former President Joe Biden&#8216;s SEC chair, who prosecuted cryptocurrency-related companies like Coinbase and Ripple throughout his tenure. 
Gensler also advocated for more cryptocurrency regulation ahead of his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/24/11/42120607/gary-gensler-to-step-down-as-sec-chair-on-trumps-inauguration-day">departure from the SEC</a>. 
Uyeda&#8217;s legal career began at Kirkpatrick &amp; Lockhart, which is now K&amp;L Gates. 
In 2004, then-Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger appointed Uyeda as Chief Advisor to the California Corporations Commissioner, the state&#8217;s securities regulator.
By 2006, he joined the SEC and was eventually named commissioner on June 30, 2022.
He also <a href="https://www.sifma.org/people/mark-t-uyeda/?utm_source=chatgpt.com">served</a> as counsel to commissioner Atkins.
Why It Matters: A Trump appointment to the SEC will likely influence the agency&#8217;s policies regarding cryptocurrency regulation, Reuters reports.
Trump&#8217;s business dealings are heavily tied to cryptocurrency. On Friday, he debuted <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43082005/market-to-seek-further-information-on-utilization-of-80-trump-token-supply-says-bernstein">his own meme coin</a> called Official Trump (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">TRUMP</a>) and, before that, his family helped launch World Liberty Financial (WLFI), a decentralized finance platform.
According to the <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2025/01/17/us/politics/trump-conflicts-of-interest.html">New York Times</a>, citing 2024 financial disclosures, Trump owns up to $5 million worth of Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>). The new SEC is expected to loosen regulations on crypto and implement new guidelines that could bolster the value of Ethereum, Bitcoin (CRYPTP: BTC) and tokens at WLFI.

The cryptocurrency market experienced a turbulent day of trading on Monday, triggered by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43085738/trumps-crypto-silence-inauguration-omission-sparks-questions-after-history-of-mixed-signals">President Donald Trump&#8216;s inauguration. </a>
High expectations for a crypto-friendly presidency were dashed when Trump&#8217;s inaugural address did not include any mention of digital currencies. As a result, tokens suffered sharp price drops and substantial liquidations across the market.
The market had rallied significantly in the days leading up to the inauguration. But it fell almost immediately when it was clear that Trump&#8217;s speech &#8212; his second inaugural address &#8212; would not include the topic.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>), which had been riding a wave of optimism ahead of the inauguration, dropped from $106,000 to $101,000 during Trump's speech before stabilizing around $103,000. 
Among altcoins, Solana (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/sol/usd">SOL</a>) — central to the weekend's Trump-affiliated meme coin frenzy — fell nearly 10% from its lifetime high.
The newly launched TRUMP (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">TRUMP</a>) meme coin, released on Friday, saw an immediate plunge. It fell 30% from $50 during Trump's address.
Though it partially recovered, it remained down over 44% at last check Monday, trading at around $39.88. 
A meme coin inspired by First Lady Melania Trump (CRYPTO: MELANIA), which launched a day after TRUMP, fared worse. It plummeted 46% before rebounding slightly.

According to <a href="https://www.coinglass.com/LiquidationData">data </a>from CoinGlass, the volatility wiped out over $700 million in leveraged crypto positions on Monday alone. Nearly $500 million-worth of those liquidations came from traders betting on price increases.
Including the selloff that began overnight before the inauguration, the total liquidation across digital assets surpassed $1.2 billion in 24 hours—the largest leverage flush this year.
The wild swings of the meme coins has also attracted criticism from key political figures. 
Nic Carter, a founding partner of a crypto investment firm, called the meme coin launch "preposterous," while Congresswoman Maxine Waters criticized it for "tainting the crypto industry" and exposing the need for proper regulation. 
This has led to concern for advocates within the industry that the volatile meme coins may hurt the public perception of legitimate digital assets and push regulators to act <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/01/43083490/melania-rise-and-trumps-fall-signal-crypto-mainstreaming-and-potential-blow-to-tradfi-experts-note">aggressively against digital assets.</a>

American Express Pays $108 Million To Settle Deceptive Marketing Charges
The U.S. Department of Justice announced on Thursday that American Express Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AXP#NYSE">AXP</a>) agreed to a $108.7 million settlement to resolve allegations of violating the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/legal/25/01/43041511/american-express-settles-1087-million-compliance-case-with-justice-department">and Enforcement Act.&nbsp;</a>
The Department of Justice <a href="https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/american-express-agrees-pay-1087m-settle-allegations-deceptive-marketing-and-dummy-account">accused</a> the financial giant of deceptive marketing and falsified record-keeping between 2014 and 2021.
From 2014 to 2017, American Express allegedly misled small business customers regarding credit card rewards, fees and credit checks and submitted false income information.
Additionally, employees bypassed legal requirements by entering fabricated Employer Identification Numbers (EINs) on small business credit card applications during a product transition period.&nbsp;
From 2018 to 2021, American Express was further accused of misrepresenting tax benefits for its Payroll Rewards and Premium Wire programs. The firm charged above-market fees under false pretenses, regulators said.

"When financial companies engage in deceptive sales tactics or falsify information to cover up a failure to follow applicable regulations, they threaten the integrity of our financial system," said Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General Brian M. Boynton, head of the Justice Department's Civil Division.
"Today's settlement makes clear that the department will hold accountable those who violate the trust placed in them to follow the rules governing our financial institutions and to be truthful about their business practices," Boynton added.&nbsp;
The Vanguard Group Pays $106.41 MIllion To Settle Charges Related To Misleading Statements
The Securities and Exchange Commission on Friday <a href="https://www.sec.gov/newsroom/press-releases/2025-21">announced that</a> The Vanguard Group, Inc. will pay $106.41 million to settle charges for misleading statements related to capital gains distributions and tax consequences for retail investors who held Vanguard Investor Target Retirement Funds (Investor TRFs) in taxable accounts.&nbsp;
The SEC's order finds that due to the actions of Vanguard, retail investors of the Investor TRFs who continued to hold their fund shares in taxable accounts faced historically larger capital gains distributions and tax liabilities and were deprived of the potential compounding growth of their investments.
The order also finds that Vanguard Investor TRFs' prospectuses, effective and distributed in 2020 and 2021, were materially misleading.&nbsp;
"Materially accurate information about capital gains and tax implications is critical to investors saving for their retirements," said Corey Schuster, Chief of the Division of Enforcement's Asset Management Unit. "Firms must ensure that they are accurately describing to investors the potential risks and consequences associated with their investments."&nbsp;

Here's How Much $1000 Invested In Sprouts Farmers Market 10 Years Ago Would Be Worth Today

President Donald Trump announced a set of executive orders shortly after his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/01/43085323/trump-sworn-in-as-47th-president-declares-golden-age-of-america-begins-right-now">second inaugural speech Monday</a>. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">A Hard Line At The Border</h3>
Immigration was at the center of Trump's first action as 47th president. The &#8220;Remain in Mexico&#8221; policy, for example, requires asylum seekers to wait outside the U.S. while their cases are processed.
Trump wants to bring this policy back and direct federal agencies to begin mass deportations.
The policy was originally implemented during his first term as president in 2019. Critics argued at the time that it exposed migrants to violence and dangerous cartels.
One of his most aggressive moves was officially designating drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations. The move grants the government expanded legal authority to target them.
"We will send troops to the southern border to repel the disastrous invasion of our country," he said, doubling down on nativist language that marked his first campaign. He also invoked the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, a rarely used wartime measure, to ramp up efforts against foreign criminal organizations operating in the U.S.
The decision is expected to spark diplomatic tensions, particularly with Mexico.
It&#8217;s also worth noting that both Congress and the courts can potentially block Trump&#8217;s executive orders. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">National Energy Emergency: ‘Drill, Baby, Drill'</h3>
In another executive action, Trump declared a national energy emergency. This sets the stage for an aggressive rollback of environmental policies enacted under his predecessor.
&#8220;We will drill, baby, drill,&#8221; he said, outlining a vision in which the U.S. would rely on its vast fossil fuel reserves to drive economic growth. President Joe Biden <a href="https://www.eenews.net/articles/what-bidens-oil-record-means-for-the-industrys-future/">presided</a> over a record boom <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/23/10/35240230/us-is-producing-more-oil-under-biden-than-at-any-point-under-the-trump-administration">in domestic oil production</a>.
Still, the Trump administration aims to ramp up American energy exports to global markets and effectively dismantle key provisions of the Green New Deal.
The Biden administration introduced legislation to reduce carbon emissions and transition to renewable energy. 
Trump also announced the revocation of electric vehicle mandates, calling them a threat to the U.S. auto industry.
&#8220;We will bring prices down, fill our strategic reserves up again right to the top, and export American energy all over the world,&#8221; he said, arguing that energy independence would be a cornerstone of economic revival.
Trump blamed inflation on &#8220;massive overspending and escalating energy prices&#8221; and vowed to take immediate action to bring down costs. 
He directed his cabinet to use their authority to combat what he described as a &#8220;record inflation crisis&#8221; and declared a national energy emergency as part of his strategy.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Trade And Manufacturing: The ‘New American Dream'</h3>
Trump framed his economic vision as a return to American manufacturing dominance, announcing plans to overhaul the U.S. trade system. 
He vowed to shift the burden away from domestic taxpayers and onto foreign competitors, saying, "Instead of taxing our citizens to enrich other countries, we will tariff and tax foreign countries to enrich our citizens."
To enforce this, he announced the creation of the &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/01/42988641/trump-wants-trade-partners-to-start-paying-announces-external-revenue-service-for-tariffs">External Revenue Service</a>,&#8221; a new agency tasked with collecting tariffs and duties from imports. It&#8217;s not clear how this agency would function alongside the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), which already oversees tariffs and revenue from foreign countries. 
"America will be a manufacturing nation once again, and we have something no other country has—the largest amount of oil and gas on Earth," he said, arguing that energy and industry would be the backbone of economic resurgence.
Trump also signaled a broader restructuring of the federal government, establishing a Department of Government Efficiency aimed at eliminating bureaucracy.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Cultural And Social Shifts</h3>
Trump also moved swiftly on social policies, signing an executive order that bars the federal government from factoring race and gender into public policy decisions. 
He declared that "there are only two genders, male and female", a stance expected to ignite legal battles with civil rights groups.
Trump promised to reinstate military personnel who had been discharged for refusing COVID-19 vaccine mandates, promising full back pay.
&#8220;Our armed forces will be freed to focus on their sole mission, defeating America&#8217;s enemies,&#8221; he said.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Bold International And Historical Revisions</h3>
Trump&#8217;s executive orders extended beyond domestic policy, touching on historical and geopolitical issues. 
He announced plans to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the &#8220;Gulf of America&#8221; and restore the name of Mount McKinley, which had been changed to Denali under the Obama administration.
Trump also declared that the U.S. would &#8220;take back&#8221; control of the Panama Canal, arguing that China's influence in the region posed a strategic threat.
Trump vowed to expand U.S. space exploration, declaring that American astronauts would plant &#8220;the Stars and Stripes&#8221; on Mars. In the background, a visibly pleased Elon Musk gave a thumbs-up as the president spoke.

Trump Unleashes Executive Orders On Border Security, Oil Drilling, Domestic Manufacturing In First Acts As President

In the current market session, Cognizant Tech Solns Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CTSH#NASDAQ">CTSH</a>) share price is at $77.81, after a 0.49% spike. Moreover, over the past month, the stock decreased by 2.11%, but in the past year, went up by 0.91%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is overvalued, even if the company is performing up to par in the current session. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1737405909_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Comparing Cognizant Tech Solns P/E Against Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Cognizant Tech Solns has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 95.48 of the IT Services industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1737405909_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.
