In 2024, we have seen Meta Platforms, Salesforce.com, Booking Holdings and Alphabet initiating dividend payments. Many technology companies have accumulated significant amounts of cash, with more calls to return this cash to shareholders by initiating dividends.
The race to develop new, increasingly high-performance artificial intelligence software does not stop and involves further large American companies, such as Meta, but also new Chinese start-ups. Meta and open source artificial intelligence software Meta, the company founded under the name Facebook by Mark Zuckerberg, plans to spend USD 40 billion on its artificial intelligence projects in 2024. As Pier Luigi Pisa explains in the ‘Affari&Finanza’ insert of the daily newspaper ‘La Repubblica’, this is a figure comparable to that put up by Google and Microsoft. Meta, however, has decided to present itself on the market with a novelty: it will make its artificial intelligence software available to users free of charge. Why provide software for free? The strategy of Zuckerberg's company,' explains Pisa, ’is twofold: a) to attract more users of the platforms controlled by Meta (Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram, etc.), where it will be possible to ta ...
One of the most famous ‘meme stocks’ of recent years is back in the news, with a sharp rise that caused huge losses for ‘short’ investors. GameStop's sudden rise knocks out short sellers GameStop is back in the news in the financial markets. The video game and entertainment merchandise company recorded a sudden rise in its value on the stock exchange, much like it did in 2021. This rise of 74% in a few hours caused huge losses among short sellers. According to data made available by S3 Partners, these investors, i.e. hedge funds, lost around $838 million. The return of the "meme stock" As Yun Li of ‘CNBC’ writes, again, it seems that the rise was triggered by ‘Roaring Kitty’, a kind of influencer among the investor community (a post on ‘X’ is said to have triggered the run-up in the stock). The script was very similar to the one that was staged in 2021: investors bought the stock en masse, forcin ...
Xiaomi, primarily known for its consumer electronics, recently made headlines with its foray into the electric vehicle (EV) market by launching its first EV, Xiaomi Su7. Remarkably, the Xiaomi SU7 received nearly 90,000 preorders within 24 hours of its launch, and production for its first year on the market has sold out. This move not only marks Xiaomi’s ambitious entry into the automotive industry but also signals the burgeoning growth and potential of the EV market.
Equity markets have been upbeat at the start of May following a dip in April. The VIX Index, also referred to as the fear index, spiked in the first half of April signifying elevated uncertainty regarding actions of the Federal Reserve (Fed) and earnings for US corporates for the first quarter of the year.
Many investors would have the intention to invest in sustainability. However, the criteria for defining what is sustainable (e.g. ESG) and what is not are not unambiguous and create confusion within this market. Difficult to draw the boundaries of sustainability One of the biggest problems concerning sustainable investments concerns the definition of sustainability. In other words, apart from the very serious problem of greenwashing, the point is this: it is difficult to clearly draw the contours of products that are sustainable and products that are not. Jörg Arnold, CEO for Germany of Swiss Life, discussed this with ‘Das Investment’ magazine in an interview conducted by Christian Hilmes. Although dealing with insurance products, the considerations of the CEO of Swiss Life Deutschland are interesting for the sustainable finance sector as a whole. Two examples of the difficulty in labelling a sustainable product One of the most relevant problems that emerges from A ...
Although interest rates remain high and the economy (especially in the US) slows down its growth, some stock indices have broken further new records in recent weeks. But what explains this growth in the stock markets? The prospect of a rate cut in the US recedes Some economic data, such as GDP in the US, point to a slowdown in economic growth. Meanwhile, also in the US, inflation makes a cut in interest rates in the coming months less and less likely (by the Fed). A stronger dollar and, therefore, a weaker euro could cause inflationary pressures to rise again in Europe as well. Despite all this, as Vito Lops points out in the newspaper ‘Il Sole 24 Ore’, nine stock indices have broken all records in recent days: how was this possible? The role of share buybacks Lops identifies buybacks as a key reason. Buybacks consist of share repurchases made by issuing companies. They bring with them a number of advantages, among which - Lops goes on to explain - an increase in one in ...
There are 118 different known elements commonly illustrated in the periodic table and around 93 of them are metals. Everything we use in our daily lives either contains metals or has gone through a process involving metals to reach us. In clean technology, one common property makes metals particularly important – that they are very good conductors of heat and electricity.
It is possible that the European Central Bank will make its first interest rate cut in June, while it seems less and less likely that Jerome Powell's Fed will cut rates before the November elections or even before the end of this year. US economic data make a rate cut in the coming months less and less likely US economic data make more and more analysts and observers think that a rate cut by the Federal Reserve could occur after the November elections or even not until early 2025. The latest data signalled a slowdown in the economy, with GDP growth (below expectations) at 1.6% and an increase in the unemployment rate from 3.8% in March to 3.9% in April (a year ago, the unemployment rate was 3.4%). Meanwhile, inflation accelerated again: the Consumer Price Index rose by 0.4 % in March. European inflation is not that far from the ECB's target Looking at core inflation, in the US the figure is 3.8%, in Europe 2.9%. As Jumana Saleheen, Chief Economist of Vanguard Europe, whose ...
