Our individual footprint on the grand scale of global climate change is almost negligible — to put the blame on yourself and not the multinational and multi generational corporations that would polute in seconds what you might polute in a lifetime is somewhat absurd. While there are many things you can do on a local and individual level, we are ultimately part of a greater society and there are simply aspects of that system we cannot as individuals touch. There is no...

Besides looking at the technicals for entry and exit of a good stock, fundamentals of the company is most important to sustain a long term growth. The value of the stock must ensure good leadership, cash flow and investment into R&D to stay ahead of competition. Many companies do look good on the outside like the PE ratios but fundamentally has loose footings hence watch out for value traps. Don’t invest in meme stocks as hype is not fundamental, it is pure speculation.

Well - $Ford Motor (F.US)$owns or owned about 12% of $Rivian Automotive (RIVN.US)$, so in essence Ford just did tap the equity markets with the Rivian IPO. The F execs made a lot of money in a week. If they were smart they sold some of the stock to beef up their cash. By investing in various JVs, etc, both GM and Ford stand to profit on the markets from the EV craze.
It makes no sense at all for Ford to spin off EVs - their entire EV strategy leverages their pre-existing brand, service/dealer network, and often existing plants. It is remotely conceivable that GM might have better prospects, but I doubt that over the longer run they would find it profitable.
In the autonomous driving space, both companies will of course have independent companies "owning" those systems to limit their own liability. Ford went with Argo AI and GM of course has Cruise. Argo AI also has investment from $VOLKSWAGEN A G (VWAGY.US)$.
Then there are the battery ventures.
The similar strategies followed by the "legacy" cos limit liabilities and cut investment costs, so I am not sure that any short-term gains from trying to create a spin-off to house the actual EVs would offer a longer-term benefit.

The $NASDAQ 100 Index (.NDX.US)$-1.3% falls the most among the three broad stock market indexes at Monday's close, struggling as a rebound in rates hit growth names and megacaps also face selling pressure.
Names like $DoorDash (DASH.US)$and $Peloton Interactive (PTON.US)$and other shares that gained during the pandemic are sliding.
The $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$-0.3% finishes the session lower, while the $Dow Jones Industrial Average (.DJI.US)$+0.1% performs the best thanks to price gains from $Goldman Sachs (GS.US)$and $JPMorgan (JPM.US)$.
Six of the 11 S&P sectors are higher, led by Energy and Financials. Communication Services fall the most.
The megacaps are mostly lower, with $Amazon (AMZN.US)$the worst performer.
"The SPX continues to consolidate within a bullish pennant formation," Craig Johnson, technical market strategist at Piper Sandler says. "A close above 4,705 would validate a topside breakout. While last week’s advance lacked participation, the bullish breakouts and/or improving technical setups among its mega-caps is encouraging."
The $U.S. 10-Year Treasury Notes Yield (US10Y.BD)$yield is up 8 basis points to 1.62%, while the $U.S. 2-Year Treasury Notes Yield (US2Y.BD)$is also up 8 points to 0.59%.
Rates rose after news hit that the White House is renominating Chairman Jerome Powell, while naming Lael Brainard as vice chair.
"This decision also removes uncertainty with Powell’s current term ending in February," ING says. "Had there been any delay in appointing a new Chair due to a lack of political support this could have caused significant financial market nervousness, particularly if we are right and the economy is soaring, inflation is above 6% and the Fed is still stimulating the economy with QE."
October existing home sales rose unexpectedly to 6.34M.
"Another upside surprise relative to both the mortgage applications numbers and the pending sales index, leaving sales at a nine-month high, after reversing about three-fifths of the drop in the first half of the year," Pantheon Macro's Ian Shepherdson writes. "Most of the increase in recent months, and all the October gain, is in the core single-family home component; condo/co-op sales dipped last month."
On the M&A front Monster Beverage is reportedly looking for a deal with Constellation.

Value or Growth Stocks? Lots of investors have long argued the dilemma.
The so-called growth stocks have been through their hard time in recent days. High-flying growth stocks are bordering on correction territory.
Familiar names like $Palantir (PLTR.US)$, $CrowdStrike (CRWD.US)$, $Snowflake (SNOW.US)$ $Salesforce (CRM.US)$ etc.
When talking about disruptive innovation, the name that comes up to investors' mind must be "ARK". And it's been a dismal week for Cathie Wood's flagship fund, $ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK.US)$ , that's left nearly all of her holdings in bear market.
ARKK fell 12.6% this week for its worst week since February. It dropped 5.5% on Friday.
Is this the sign that people are not in favor of growth stocks and disruptive innovation companies? Or maybe it's just because investors need something more solid fundamentally under the risk of Omicron? Would you comment down below and tell mooers about your thoughts?
