He certainly put EV stocks at risk.Biden is quadrupling the tariffs on Chinese EV imports from 25% to 100%, supposedly to protect the U.S. EV industry “from unfairly priced Chinese imports.” Cut through the word salad the president offered in defense of his actions, and it means U.S. consumer ...

PM Images A Brand Of Personality And A Future-Oriented Ecosystem Block, Inc. (NYSE:SQ) has many attractive features as a company, which, in my opinion, includes Jay-Z on the board of directors after Block acquired the majority of TIDAL from him.
