Student loan repayments resume on Oct. 1 after a three-year hiatus due to Covid-19. The repayments on the $1.6 trillion in student loan debt are bound to affect retail spending and, in turn, retail stocks.

The fintech industry has been booming in the past few years, as more people have begun relying on digital platforms for banking, payments, investing, and other financial services.

Blink Charging (NASDAQ:BLNK) stock has declined by more than 73% since the start of the year. With this big drop, those among the risk-hungry may be curious whether BLNK stock, at today’s super-low prices, has become a “bottom-fisher’s buy.” This is especially the case, given this stock’s high short interest. According to Fintel, 27.6% of
AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC) stock has had a wilde ride these last few years. As you probably recall, global movie-theater chain became a target of meme stock traders in 2021.

The energy market in 2023 is facing a paradoxical situation. On one hand, oil and gas prices have largely rebounded from their historic lows in 2020 and 2021, thanks to geopolitics around the Russian-Ukrainian war and the supply constraints imposed by OPEC and its allies. On the other hand, not all oil and gas companies
Biotech companies can offer some of the most explosive returns for an investor. Small-cap biotech companies are known to shoot up 100% overnight and also to dump 50% in an instant as well. Why is this the case? Well, these companies are highly innovative but have an extremely risky business model. They are highly dependent
Selling cryptocurrencies as a contrarian strategy can yield short-term profits amid a market filled with dubious tokens and scams. A significant disparity exists in the crypto market, with top cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC-USD) and Ethereum (ETH-USD) thriving while many lesser-known ones struggle in a fragmented and unpredictable market. But knowing how quickly the market can
Student loan repayments are rearing their ugly heads as borrowers prepare to start paying them back next week. After three years of blissful reprieve, borrowers are set to begin dedicating cash towards their burdensome debt loads.

While the allure of cryptocurrency investments has undoubtedly captivated the market’s attention, it’s perhaps wise for investors to consider blockchain stocks to sell.

The United Auto Workers (UAW) strike is expanding in a move that will surely hurt the U.S. economy and auto stocks as a whole. Investment bank Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) recently estimated that a full month of lost automotive production would cost General Motors (NYSE:GM), Ford Motor (NYSE:F) and Stellantis (NYSE:STLA) combined $7 billion to $8 billion

It’s been a tough month for S&P 500 stocks. September slumps are common, and this month is historically the worst for the index.

Consumer confidence is falling.
Homebuilding stocks, traditionally seen as indicators of economic health and consumer confidence, may currently be sending cautionary signals to discerning investors. The once-vibrant real estate market seems to be on a tenuous footing, with recent data suggesting potential headwinds. The National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo homebuilder sentiment index has provided a clearer picture, witnessing
Cloud computing is the backbone of digital transformation in modern enterprises. It enables businesses to access, store and process data and applications over the internet, rather than on-premises servers. Cloud computing offers many benefits, such as scalability, flexibility, cost-efficiency and security. However, not all cloud computing businesses have been successful in 2023. Not only is
The solar market in 2023 is facing a tough challenge from the relatively lower oil and natural gas prices that have made fossil fuels more attractive for power generation.
