Hot Casino Stocks To Watch For 2021

Leave a reply

During the third quarter, we exited China Vanke (SZSE:000002), one of our portfolio’s long-standing property holdings as we believed its boardroom battle for ownership created potential for risk. We also added a new position in an Indian software business that we have researched for many years. Its stock price had come down significantly due to certain challenges that we believe can be corrected. The business holds attractive potential over the medium term. In addition, we bought into an attractive advertising business in China as local companies invest more in building their brands—a trend that should continue to develop going forward. We also added a Chinese health care business to our pool of health care holdings. This is a vertical we are excited about, given Asia’s currently low GDP spending on health care versus that of Western markets, as well as the increasing skill sets of Asian companies.

Hot Clean Energy Stocks For 2019

Leave a reply

Apple does not agree with the Trump Administration on a number of issues, including tariffs and immigration. Now the iPhone maker is speaking out about the dangers of rolling back environmental protections.

Lisa Jackson, Apple’s vice president of environment, policy and social initiatives, gave a speech that covered what the company considers the dangers of the federal government’s environmental policies at the Global Climate Action Summit in San Francisco on Thursday.

“Just a few weeks ago, the administration announced that they plan to roll back nationwide clean energy standards. The new plan risks drastically increasing emissions over the next 20 years,” said Jackson.

It was the latest move by the federal government to roll back environmental protections and safeguards enacted under the Obama administration.

The Trump administration thinks the regulatory costs of the rules stifle businesses.

Jackson, who was the head of the Environmental Protection Agency for four years under President Barack Obama, said those policies were already demonstrating real results.

8 Warnings for Bitcoin Investors

20 Best ETFs From 5 Categories: Morningstar, 2017

Just days after releasing a list of warnings about Bitcoin, Massachusetts Securities Regulator William Galvin said Friday that he’s starting an exam sweep of entities based in the Commonwealth raising money from initial coin offerings.

ICOs are used to raise capital by selling digital coins or tokens that can then be traded, and the digital coins or tokens represent an interest in a company.

ICO issuers are primarily tech companies offering a blockchain-supported technology.

The Massachusetts Securities Division notes that a blockchain is “a continuously growing decentralized public ledger of transactions,” which many say will revolutionize the financial services industry.

“Blockchain may or may not change the way banks transfer money or the way credit payments are made, but there is little question that the offer and sale of the digital coins are securities which need to be registered or exempt from registration in the Commonwealth,” Galvin said in a statement announcing the sweep.

Top 10 Clean Energy Stocks To Own For 2019

What happened

Shares of natural gas fuel supplier Clean Energy Fuels Corp (NASDAQ:CLNE) jumped as much as 12% in trading Tuesday as oil prices continued to help push the stock higher. At 3:30 p.m. EDT shares were near their high for the day, trading 11.6% higher.

So what

The ups and downs of crude oil trading can often drive Clean Energy Fuels’ stock and that appears to be what’s happening today. Midday, oil prices spiked on news that the Trump Administration would ban all oil imports from Iran by Nov. 4, 2018. WTI Crude Oil is trading 3.5% higher at $70.45 per barrel and Brent Crude is currently up 2.2% to $76.34 per barrel.

Since Clean Energy Fuels’ natural gas products are a direct competitor to diesel, which comes from crude oil, when oil prices rise it makes natural gas more competitive. For today, investors are speculating that rising oil prices will eventually help the company’s financials.

    The ongoing trade rift between the United States and China continues to plague international markets. Despite reports that both countries are working behind the scenes to prevent additional detrimental trade policies, both countries recently proposed tens of billions in new tariffs on one another. The United States has accused China of widespread intellectual property theft, while China has accused the United States of unfair trade practices, including price manipulation in the agricultural industry. This morning, it’s worth noting that proposed tariffs on U.S. business jets will likely not provide a competitive advantage to foreign competition. Reuters reports that Chinese aviation executives do not see the layer of protectionism as a way to bolster the nation’s local market.
