Answer: He can get a doctor’s note telling you everything is wonderful.

But investors? They’re left on their own, left trying to forecast when a stimulus bill will land, left watching every vaccine trial to spot a winner, left waiting up at night for earnings reports, and left tracking technical indicators for clues about what’s churning underneath the surface.

LONDON, Oct 12 (Reuters) – A push by big technology firms into financial services in developing countries will improve access to them, but might also make traditional lenders more vulnerable, the Financial Stability Board (FSB) said.

The expansion in emerging markets has generally been more rapid and broad-based than that in advanced economies, the FSB, which coordinates financial regulation for the Group of 20 Economies (G20), said in the report released on Monday.

Lower levels of access to traditional banking and financial services developing economies had created demand for services now offered by big tech firms, the report found, particularly among low-income populations and in rural areas.

An increasing availability of mobile phones and internet access supported this trend, the FSB said.

“However the expansion of BigTech activity also gives rise to risks and vulnerabilities,” it said, pointing to lower financial literacy and firms using other data gathered.

Residential sales will experience a massive lift during the pandemic, according to Charles Nathanson, an associate professor of finance at the Kellogg School of Management.
More homeowners are looking to use their savings from limited vacation and entertainment spending for larger homes and spaces, especially as working remotely continues.
However, Nathanson predicts that commercial and rental real estate will be unstable, due to an uptick in moves, evictions, and unemployment.

The COVID crisis has thoroughly upended how people live, work, and shop. And this, in turn, has upended real estate markets.

Whether it’s tech workers abandoning dense urban cores for more space in the countryside, restaurateurs converting from dine-in to takeout, or companies suddenly going virtual while locked into an office lease, it’s clear that the ways we are using space — and the amount we’re willing to pay for it — are

These UK shares are set to release fresh financial details over the next couple of weeks. Is now the time to buy in? Or should you give them a very wide berth?

Barclays

Imminent third-quarter financials from FTSE 100 banking colossus Barclays are bound to attract plenty of attention. This is a reflection of the blue chip’s standing in its own right as well as its role as a barometer of the health of the British economy. And I have to tell you that I’m not too optimistic over what they’ll show.

UK banks have already been forced to suck up gigantic impairments resulting from the Covid-19 crisis. Barclays itself announced it had booked £3.7bn worth of credit impairments in its half-year trading update in July.

Twice over the past two weeks, ExxonMobil
XOM
has made headlines for all the wrong reasons.

Last week the utility NextEra Energy
NEE
surpassed the market capitalization of ExxonMobil to replace it as the largest U.S. energy company.

This week, there was another milestone. At some points over the past decade, ExxonMobil — the biggest of “Big Oil” in the U.S. — was worth as much as $225 billion more than Chevron
CVX
. That size advantage totally disappeared on October 8, 2020, when Chevron’s value closed the day higher than ExxonMobil’s.
