    Early Morning Vibes: Top 4 Stocks To Buy Right Now

    The session on February 8, American stock markets ended in the green zone. The S&P 500 index rose 0.74% to 3916 points, the Dow Jones rose 0.76% and the NASDAQ surged 0.57%. All three indices renewed their all-time highs. The growing prospects for a major economic support package in the US remain in focus. The energy sector climbed 4.17% on the back of an ongoing rally in oil. Increased risk appetite triggered a 0.78% correction in the defensive utility sector.

    Company news

    Children’s goods maker Hasbro (HAS: -4.3%) beat expectations, but management noted weak holiday sales.

    Palantir (PLTR: + 5.9%) announced a partnership with IBM (IBM: + 1.5%) to develop technology products.

    Tesla (TSLA: + 1.3%) invested $ 1.5 billion in bitcoin and announced that it will accept cryptocurrency as payment for electric cars.

    Today, global stock markets are showing mixed dynamics. Discussions on the fiscal stimulus package remain in the spotlight. The passage of a bill on public spending in the amount of about $ 1.9 trillion threatens to accelerate inflation. Some experts warn about this, in particular, former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers. Investors in the debt market are reacting to this risk, so the day before, the rate on 30-year Treasuries rose above 2% for the first time in a year. Rising bond rates could put pressure on the attractiveness of the stock market, primarily on growth stocks, of which tech companies are prime examples.

    The epidemiological situation in the United States continues to improve rapidly, despite the circulation of new strains of coronavirus. The number of hospitalized people dropped to 80 thousand, more than 10% of Americans have already received the first dose of the vaccine. However, the risk of another jump in the incidence remains, so the CDC is not yet recommending state authorities to remove the antiquated restrictions.

    Technical picture

    Technically, the S&P 500 is still in a medium-term uptrend. The session ended the day before at the upper trend line, which is still a significant obstacle. The S & P500 index recorded growth for the sixth session in a row, so short-term consolidation is likely.

  • Early Morning Vibes: Check Out These 4 hot Stocks Right Now

    Early Morning Vibes: Check Out These 4 hot Stocks Right Now

    Stock markets recovered strongly from the price dip at the end of January last week. In New York, the indices even managed to set new all-time highs on the boards. On Friday, the S&P 500 closed 0.39% higher at 3,886 points and the Nasdaq celebrated the weekend with a gain of 0.57% on 13,856 points.

    The unemployment figures on Friday showed that the labor market is slowly but surely going to recover somewhat. In January, 49,000 jobs were added in the private sector and the unemployment rate fell to 6.3%. Wall Street had previously expected more jobs, but economists assumed an unchanged unemployment rate at 6.7%. Still, the numbers were not very positive. Unemployment fell mainly because 406,000 people gave up their job search. The participation rate thus fell to 61.4%. This is a bad sign and indicates that the US job market is in bad shape.

    To support the US economy, Joe Biden is currently preparing a $ 1,900 billion corona support package. The package includes $ 1,400 in incentive vouchers, supplemental unemployment benefits, and Covid-19 vaccination and testing funds. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said on Sunday that if Biden’s stimulus plan is passed, the US could return to full employment by 2022.

    The S&P 500 nevertheless managed to close in the green for five days in a row and appears to continue this series today. Futures are up approximately 0.4% and there is little on the agenda to change that. Figures from Twitter, Uber, Walt Disney, and Coca-Cola will follow later this week. Furthermore, inflation figures from the US, China, and Germany are on the agenda.

    On February 4, American stock indices closed in the green. The S&P 500 Index climbed 1.09% to 3872 points, reaching a new all-time high. Dow Jones rose 1.08%, NASDAQ – 1.23%. The news background remained mostly calm. High investor risk appetite may be associated with positive macroeconomic statistics. The finance sector was the top gainer, rallying 2.27% on the back of a rally in payments stocks following a PayPal report. The tech sector added 1.55% on positive performance in Apple shares.

    Company news

    PayPal (PYPL: + 7.4%) successfully reported for the fourth quarter amid a boom in online trading and an increase in cryptocurrency transactions.

    Qualcomm’s revenue (QCOM: -8.8%) was in line with expectations, which did not allow the company to distinguish itself from the unexpectedly strong results of competitors.

    EBay (EBAY: + 5.3%) results beat consensus due to explosive growth in eCommerce during the reporting period.

    Today, global stock exchanges are showing positive dynamics. The optimism remains mainly related to the prospects for the adoption of the fiscal stimulus package. President Biden said yesterday that he was not ready to reduce the volume of direct payments to the population and insisted that they remain at $ 1400. Nevertheless, the head of the White House will probably consider the idea of ​​limiting the circle of citizens who are entitled to subsidies. This item of the program is of increased interest due to the extremely high activity of private investors, which caused a wave of short squeezes last week. It is expected that part of the funds received from the state will be invested by the population in the stock market but estimates of the potential inflow of liquidity are still very different.

    The focus of attention of market participants today will be focused on makrostatistiki. Strong data on the labor market is expected, which may serve as a fresh driver for the continuation of the upward movement. The companies’ quarterly reports continue to support risk appetite, with a positive initial investor reaction to the reports prevailing.

    Sentiment Index

    The Freedom Finance Sentiment Index remains at 68 out of 100. The index reflects market participants’ hope for a global economic recovery in 2021. Concerns about the negative impact of the coronavirus pandemic are gradually diminishing thanks to the prospect of mass vaccinations.

    Technical picture

    Technically, the S&P 500 is still in a medium-term uptrend. The day before, the broad market index reached a new high, which signals the continued activity of buyers. The short-term outlook will depend on whether the bulls can hold the S&P 500 above 3870 points. The next resistance is at 3900 points, where the upper trend line lies.

  • What Software Application Sector can offer?

    What Software Application Sector can offer?

    In the stock market this year, software stocks show strong development. The software has ‎become a ‎fundamental part of how many things function, so logically, it has become a ‎fundamental part of how a ‎lot of things work. This is why companies have boosted corporate ‎investments in digital acceleration as ‎a result of the coronavirus pandemic. The stock ‎market is seeing a record year for many of the top ‎software stocks. Enterprise software-as-‎a-service (SaaS), cloud computing, and cybersecurity are key ‎areas of interest. All of them ‎improve our way of working in the digital space.

 ‎
    ‎ ‎
    There were plenty of headline-grabbing buyouts and massive new funds for the US private ‎equity ‎industry this year. It was a year of a lot of unusual and unprecedented events, as we ‎all know. ‎Following March’s coronavirus outbreak, buyout investors spent the rest of 2020 ‎dealing with the ‎shockwaves.

 ‎
    ‎ ‎
    Over the past few years or so, private equity companies have demonstrated an increasing ‎acceptance ‎of the software sector, trailing in industry leaders’ footsteps. That persisted in ‎‎2020, with the ‎percentage of US PE investments hitting an all-time high in the information ‎technology industry. ‎Buyers migrated to all types of tech companies this year, with the ‎public market’s surprising resilience ‎during the pandemic being partly attributed to a surge ‎in tech stocks.
