VetComm Secures $2 Billion in Lifetime VA Disability Compensation for Veterans in 2024
VetComm assisted more than 10,000 veterans in 2024, achieving a $2 billion total in disability compensation for its clients.
'Reaching this $2 billion milestone is a testament to the resilience and dedication of our veteran clients and the unwavering commitment of the VetComm team.'— VetComm CEO Kate Monroe
SAN DIEGO, CA, UNITED STATES, April 14, 2025 / EINPresswire.com / -- VetComm, an organization dedicated to helping veterans obtain the disability benefits they're owed, is proud to announce its monumental achievement of securing $2 billion in Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) disability compensation for its clients in 2024. This milestone underscores the company's commitment to supporting United States veterans and reflects the organization's rapid growth and impact.
In 2024 alone, VetComm provided hands-on, personalized guidance to more than 10,000 veterans navigating the VA disability claims process. VetComm representatives were available for clients seven days a week, 12 hours a day, across all U.S. time zones. Veterans received technological assistance, real-time claim submission support, comprehensive preparation for their Compensation and Pension (C&P) exam and more.

CNBC Daily Open: Headwinds don't seem to bother the U.S. stock market
The U.S. stock market appears a little too optimistic. All three major indexes climbed Wednesday, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite enjoying their third consecutive session in the green. The S&P, in fact, is around 2% away from its all-time high, which it reached in February. That's despite the shadow of U.S. President Donald Trump's "reciprocal" tariffs still haunting the economy. As the 90-day tariff pause ticks down, America, so far, has just one deal, struck with the U.K., and an agreement with China that, while reaffirmed by both sides after two days of negotiations in London, is still preliminary and keeps tariffs at double-digit levels. Corporations are seemingly bracing for economic fallout already. Layoffs have been accelerating this year. Google and Paramount on Tuesday joined Microsoft, Citigroup and Disney in announcing headcount cuts. (However, it should be noted that layoffs, rather perversely, tend to push up stock prices because they are a cost-cutting measure.) And the bond market, the sterner sibling of the stock market, might put a check on investor enthusiasm. If there are unexpected results from U.S. inflation data and Treasury auctions on Wednesday and Thursday, yields could rise again, not only putting pressure on stocks, but also the broader economy in terms of higher borrowing costs. The stock market, then, seems to be betting on more trade breakthroughs and favorable inflation data. But the bond market and CEOs might not be so sure about that. U.S. and China reach trade frameworkThe U.S. and China have reached an agreement on trade, representatives from both sides said Tuesday after a second day of high-level talks in London. The deal now awaits a nod from the leaders of the two countries. U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick indicated U.S. restrictions on sales of advanced tech to China in recent weeks would be rolled back as Beijing approves rare-earth exports. S&P 500 notches three-day win streakU.S. stocks rose Wednesday. The S&P 500 advanced 0.55% and the Nasdaq Composite climbed 0.63%, the third day of gains for both indexes. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.25%. Asia-Pacific markets climbed Wednesday on optimism surrounding U.S.-China trade talks. Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index added 0.92% and mainland China's CSI 300 rose 0.77% at 1:30 p.m. Singapore time. Meanwhile, South Korea's Kospi was up 1%, hitting its highest level since January 2022. Musk announces robotaxi launchElon Musk said Tuesday Tesla's robotaxi service is "tentatively" set to launch in Austin, Texas, on June 22. Earlier in the day, Tesla shares rose 5.7% to close at $326.09, leaving the stock about $6 short of where it was trading last Wednesday, when it sank 14% after CEO Musk publicly feuded with Trump. The jump came after Musk shared a video on X showing that Tesla was testing driverless vehicles on the roads of Austin. Bond market in focus The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics releases data on May's consumer prices on Wednesday, then producer prices on Thursday. At the same time, the government will hold sales of long-duration Treasurys on the same days. Together, those results could have important implications for the direction of the economy and the reaction of the Federal Reserve and its approach to interest rate policy, reported CNBC's Jeff Cox. Meta to invest $14 billion in Scale AIMark Zuckerberg is so frustrated with Meta's standing in artificial intelligence that he's finalizing a deal to invest $14 billion into Scale AI, which would bring its CEO Alexandr Wang into Meta's fold, people familiar with the matter told CNBC. Scale AI helps major tech companies like OpenAI, Google and Microsoft prepare data they use to train cutting-edge AI models. Google offers buyoutsGoogle on Tuesday offered buyouts to employees in several divisions. Affected units include knowledge and information — which houses the company's search, ads and commerce divisions — and central engineering units as well as marketing, research and communications teams, CNBC has learned. Google has done multiple buyout offers in a few units this year, making it a preferred strategy to reduce headcount. [PRO] Tesla shares to drop 60%: Wells FargoEven though investors were enthused by the prospect of Tesla rolling out its robotaxi service in the future, Wells Fargo analysts think that feature won't be able to offset the company's weak sales that will trend "meaningfully weaker." The bank expects Tesla's shares to plunge around 63% from Tuesday's close. AI hits an already weak jobs market in China China's eagerness to adopt artificial intelligence comes just as economic growth is slowing, putting millions of routine jobs at risk. "I'm planning to get rid of 360 [Security Technology's] entire marketing department. This way the company can save tens of millions a year," founder and chair Zhou Hongyi said in a Chinese-language video on Friday night, translated by CNBC. It's since been viewed more than 191,000 times on popular Chinese platform Weibo alone. Whether or not it's just another sales ploy by Zhou, who goes by the moniker "Red Shirt Big Uncle Zhou Hongyi," the video captures an emerging reality: Companies pressured to cut costs may increasingly replace jobs with AI.

Asian shares climb after China and the US say they have a framework for seeking a trade deal
TOKYO (AP) — Asian shares mostly rose Wednesday after China and the U.S. said they had agreed on a framework for following up on the trade truce reached last month in Geneva. U.S. futures fell while oil prices edged higher. Japan's benchmark Nikkei 225 surged 0.6% in afternoon trading to 38,450.76. Data from the Bank of Japan data showed wholesale inflation slowed in May, meaning there might be less pressure for the central bank to raise interest rates in its next policy board meeting. Hong Kong's Hang Seng gained 0.9% to 24,381.39, while the Shanghai Composite rose 0.5% to 3,402.97. Australia's S&P/ASX 200 edged up 0.2% to 8,603.70. South Korea's Kospi added 1.0% to 2,900.05. Tuesday on Wall Street, the S&P 500 rose 0.5% to 6,038.81 as the trade talks between the world's two largest economies carried into a second day. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.2% to 42,866.87, and the Nasdaq composite gained 0.6% to 19,714.99. Stocks have roared higher since dropping roughly 20% below their record two months ago, when President Donald Trump shocked financial markets with his announcement of tariffs that were so stiff that they raised worries about a possible recession. Much of the rally has been due to hopes that Trump would lower his tariffs after reaching trade deals with countries around the world, and the S&P 500 is back within 1.7% of its record set in February. Analysts said that after two days of discussion in London, the late-night agreement reached appeared to be a consensus on what was already agreed upon before. Even so, Trump's approval is still needed. 'So what did 48 hours of talks actually produce? Apparently, a reaffirmation to eventually do what they had already said they would do. If markets were expecting substance, they got process instead,' said Stephen Innes, managing partner at SPI Asset Management. U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick said Tuesday evening in London that talks with China were going 'really, really well.' Both the United States and China have put many of their tariffs on each other's exports on pause as talks continue. Still, uncertainty over what is to come is still affecting companies and their ability to make profits. Designer Brands, the company behind the DSW shoe store chain, became the latest U.S. company to yank its financial forecasts for 2025 because of 'uncertainty stemming primarily from global trade policies.' The company, which also owns the Keds, Jessica Simpson and other shoe brands, reported a larger loss for the start of the year than analysts were expecting, and its revenue also fell short of forecasts. CEO Doug Howe pointed to 'persistent instability and pressure on consumer discretionary' spending, and the company's stock tumbled 18.2%. The uncertainty is moving in both directions, to be sure. A survey released Tuesday of optimism among small U.S. businesses improved a bit in May. 'While the economy will continue to stumble along until the major sources of uncertainty are resolved, owners reported more positive expectations on business conditions and sales growth,' according to Bill Dunkelberg, chief economist at the National Federation of Independent Business. Tesla helped to make up for such losses by rising 5.7%. The electric vehicle company has been recovering since tumbling last week as Elon Musk's relationship with Trump imploded. That raised fear about possible retaliation by the U.S. government against Tesla. Shares that trade in the United States of chipmaking giant Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. rose 2.6% after the company known as TSMC said its revenue in May jumped nearly 40% from the year earlier.
