Many companies have witnessed a tremendous increase in their share prices over the past couple of years thanks to the growing adoption of artificial intelligence (AI), which is not surprising as this technology has created massive demand for both hardware and software.The good part is that AI is currently in its early phases of growth. IDC estimates that global AI spending could increase at an annual rate of 29% over the next five years, hitting $632 billion in value in 2028.This robust increase in the adoption of AI could help make companies like Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) and Snowflake (NYSE: SNOW)…
The Hyundai Venue, a subcompact crossover SUV, stands out in the affordable automotive market. Priced competitively at $19,900 for the 2024 model year, it offers a compelling blend of features and value. Despite its lower price point, the Venue doesn’t compromise on personality or performance.

Image source: Getty Images On 23 September, the deputy chairman of Dunelm Group (LSE:DNLM), the FTSE 250 home furnishings retailer, and his wife sold stock in the company worth £114m (4.9%). Due to the large number of shares involved, Sir Will Adderley had to offload them at 1,140p each — a discount of 7.7% to the prevailing market price. Although the family still retains a 32.8% interest, in my opinion, selling such a large slice of the company sends out the wrong message. In fact, it goes against the advice of two brokers who, in September, issued guidance notes to…
Ford’s recent initiative to boost EV sales involves offering home charging stations to all buyers of its Mustang Mach-E, F-150 Lightning, or E-Transit van. This move is strategically designed to address a major concern among potential EV buyers: the ability to charge their vehicles conveniently and efficiently at home. A study conducted by Mercury Analytics revealed that nearly 90% of respondents were more likely to purchase an EV if they could charge it at home, highlighting the significance of this feature. In addition to the home charging stations, Ford has established a partnership with Tesla, allowing Ford EV owners to…
FRANKFURT (Reuters) -Germany’s Fresenius said it was checking options to speed up the start of new production lines of medical equipment at a North Carolina facility to help mitigate potential shortages from hurricane damage to rival Baxter (NYSE:)’s site in the same state. “We are working with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Drug Shortage Staff, which is actively engaged with Baxter and other manufacturers” to assess whether and by how much capacity has to be increased, Fresenius said in a statement. The Germany-based healthcare group said its generic hospital drugs unit Fresenius Kabi had recently started manufacturing intravenous (IV)…
Image source: M&S Group plc The FTSE 100 has a reputation for being a bit of a plodder. Given that it’s up just 30% in 10 years, that’s understandable. However, if we also include reinvested dividends, the total return would be 82% over the same period, according to Vanguard. That’s a much more respectable return. So far in 2024, the index is up around 6.4%, meaning it’s on course (with dividends) to slightly outperform its 8% historical average. But a handful of FTSE 100 shares certainly aren’t following this single-digit return script. Here are two that are up way more…
