It has been quite the year so far for shareholders in electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA). The Tesla share price is down by 34% since the turn of the year. But it had been doing worse until a 19% jump over the past two weeks. So, might that momentum continue and the Tesla share price keep going up? I have long wanted to add the share to my portfolio if only I could do so at what I see as an attractive price. High volatility for a large company Share prices move around often, but Tesla still seems to…

Image source: Getty Images The Stocks and Shares ISA deadline day for this year is 5 April. This means that an investor can invest money in the ISA up to a £20,000 limit. After the deadline day, the new year starts, meaning that from that point an additional £20,000 can be invested if someone has the money. Here’s my current game plan both for the coming days and for the coming year. Mostly looking beyond this week I’ve not allocated any more money to my ISA in the last few days. I don’t have the spare cash to do so,…
Image source: Getty Images The Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) stock price has been sliding since the start of the year. In March it dropped 13%. And we’re now looking at a 28% decline since a 52-week high set in early January. It’s had one remarkable effect. The forecast Nvidia price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio for the current year has fallen as low as 25. And earnings growth forecasts could drop it even further by 2028, as low as 17. That’s the kind of valuation that wouldn’t be out of place on the FTSE 100. Never mind for a high-flying Nasdaq tech stock. I…
Image source: Getty Images It can be tempting when looking for dividends just to focus on the high yields in the flagship FTSE 100 index. Notable examples here include Phoenix Group’s 9.4% and the 10.2% at M&G. But the FTSE 250 index also contains some high-yield shares of note. One is asset manager aberdeen group (LSE: ABDN), with its 9.8% yield. The dividend history here is not thrilling. Thedividend per share has been held flat for years after the most recent cut. But past performance is not necessarily a guide to what will happen in future. If the FTSE 250…
The U.S. government is set to increase tariff rates on several categories of imported products. Some economists tracking these trade proposals say the higher tariff rates could lead to higher consumer prices.One model constructed by the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston suggests that in an “extreme” scenario, heightened taxes on U.S. imports could result in a 1.4 percentage point to 2.2 percentage point increase to core inflation. This scenario assumes 60% tariff rates on Chinese imports and 10% tariff rates on imports from all other countries.The researchers note that many other tariff proposals have surfaced since they published their findings…
Frontier has signed offtake agreements with Norway’s Hafslund Celsio for the first-ever carbon capture retrofit at their waste-to-energy facility. Such plants recover energy from waste treatment, usually in the form of heat or electricity. Hafslund Celsio is the country’s largest district heating provider and operator of the biggest waste incineration plant near Oslo. The press release revealed that Frontier buyers will invest $31.6 million to remove 100,000 tons of CO₂ between 2029 and 2030.

Image source: Getty Images One FTSE 100 growth share jumps out at me right now. First, for how far and fast it’s crashed. Second, for how far and fast analysts think it will recover. So, what’s this extreme stock? JD Sports Fashion (LSE: JD). For years, JD Sports was one of the UK’s most admired growth stocks, soaring into the blue-chip index as it cashed in on the global boom in trainers and athleisure wear. But over the last couple of years, it’s been absolutely hammered. JD Sports is the worst-performing stock on the entire blue-chip index over two years,…
Lithium prices have been unpredictable due to global tensions and mining difficulties. As reported by S&P Global, in 2023, lithium carbonate prices shot up past $80,000 per metric ton but later dropped as supply increased and demand slowed. By early 2024, prices stabilized out but remained weak. But as of March 21, Platts assessed lithium carbonate (CIF North Asia) at $9,200 to $9,550 per ton. This forced several deals on hold, and some mining giants auctioned lithium for better price discovery. The report highlighted two significant auctions in the first quarter of 2025. On March 5, Albemarle Corp. sold spodumene…
Until a few months ago, the Federal Reserve appeared close to achieving something that many doubted was possible. The economy looked on the cusp of a “soft landing,” a situation where inflation was headed back to the central bank’s 2 percent target without a recession. That put the central bank on track to steadily lower interest rates until borrowing costs reached a level that neither revved up growth nor slowed it down.President Trump’s global trade war has thrown a wrench in those plans. Facing extreme uncertainty about the economic outlook, the central bank has put further interest rate cuts on…
