Key Points Rivian's R2 SUV will compete directly with Tesla's Model Y. Both companies could ultimately win long-term. These 10 stocks could mint the next wave of millionaires › For years, Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) has had much of the U.S. EV market to itself. There's a reason why Tesla's market cap is well above $1 trillion, while most other EV stocks are valued at less than $20 billion. Tesla controls more than half of the U.S. EV market, a commanding market position fueled by its most popular vehicle: the Model Y. The Model Y represents more than 70% of Tesla's vehicle sales. But next month, the Model Y will have a new competitor: Rivian's (NASDAQ: RIVN) R2 SUV. How scared should Tesla investors be? And how bullish should Rivian investors be? The answer is more surprising than you'd expect. Will AI create the world's first trillionaire? Our team just released a report on the one little-known company, called an "Indispensable Monopoly" providing the critical technology Nvidia and Intel both need. Continue » Expect Rivian to eat into Tesla's market share Tesla's Model Y, a crossover design, was the top-selling EV in 2025. An estimated 317,800 units were sold last year. The next top-selling model was Tesla's Model S, a sedan. The rest of the top-selling EVs of 2025 have something in common: Most are SUVs. Tesla's Model S is the only sedan to crack the top 10. Tesla's Model Y is the only crossover. There are two full-sized trucks, too. But the rest of the list -- a total of six out of 10 -- are SUVs. Notably, Tesla does have an SUV on the market: its luxury Model X vehicle. But that vehicle's starting price of $90,000 is a non-starter for most vehicle buyers. Plus, CEO Elon Musk revealed earlier this year that Tesla will likely discontinue all production of that model. In total, we can glean two things from this information. First, car buyers love buying Teslas. Second, car buyers love buying SUVs. And yet Tesla doesn't have an affordable SUV in its lineup. The Model Y -- ...

With markets trending lower, this is an excellent time to find some good stocks at lower valuations and entry points. The financial sector is a particularly good place to look, as the sector has been hit the hardest so far this year, down almost 10% on average. Within financials, fintechs have been hammered, as the KBW Nasdaq Financial Technology Index is off about 11% year to date. Few fintech stocks have been walloped like SoFi Technologies (SOFI 0.85%) and Upstart (UPST 2.86%). SoFi is down about 33% year to date to about $17.50 per share, while Upstart has fallen about 36% to around $27.75 per share. Investors may want to kick the tires on these two popular fintechs because they could easily double their value within the next few years. 1.

There were other claims as well, that it mistated unrecorded debt and underreported its charge-off rate. SoFi officials shot back, putting out a statement saying the report was inaccurate and misleading and demonstrates "a fundamental lack of understanding of our financial statements and business."

Six oil ships bound for Australia have been cancelled in recent days but the federal government is not yet considering any drastic measures, the energy minister, Chris Bowen, says. Bowen said on Sunday that six ships from Malaysia, Singapore and South Korea, that had been expected to arrive next month, were cancelled or deferred. The federal government was working to replace the ships, with some already substituted, the minister told ABC TV. Australia receives about 80 shipments of oil each month, on average, predominantly from Asia. On Friday, Reuters reported record amounts of US fuel were being exported to Australia amid supply chain disruptions. “The flow of oil to Asian refineries has slowed, and that has downward impacts on us,” Bowen said on Sunday. “We’re in an uncertain environment, so that’s why we’re doing … all the preparatory work. “People think ‘Well, all the ships are coming now, and one day they’ll all stop in one go’. [But] that is highly unlikely to be the case. It’s much more likely that there’ll be bumps in supply, but that governments will work with the refiners and the importers to manage those and minimise impacts.” Bowen said fuel supplies within Australia were slightly higher than before the crisis began, with 38 days of petrol. There was 30 days supply of diesel and jet fuel. The weeks ahead could be more challenging with disruptions expected to occur for shipments arriving in late April and May, the minister conceded. Energy analysts have warned that major producers in Asia, such as Malaysia and South Korea, could cut exports to Australia to prioritise domestic fuel needs. Kevin Morrison, an energy finance analyst at the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis, said on Friday that a warning from Malaysian officials that the crude oil supplier would “prioritise” its own needs was “really significant”. “South Korea, Japan and India are all very vulnerable. They hardly produce any oil so they are all very dependent on oil import...

White House says talks ‘constructive’ but Russian negotiators not present; more civilians killed in country’s south-east by Moscow attacks. What we know on day 1,488 Ukrainian and US negotiators trying to secure a peace settlement of Russia’s invasion opened their latest round of talks in Florida on Saturday, with more discussions planned through the weekend. Russian representatives did not attend the meeting. “We continued discussing key issues and the next steps within the negotiation track,” the chief Ukrainian negotiator, Rustem Umerov, posted on X. Russian and Ukrainian negotiators met at two sets of US-brokered talks in the United Arab Emirates this year and a round in Geneva last month. Moscow and Kyiv agreed on prisoner exchanges, but no breakthroughs were achieved. The White House described the latest meeting as “constructive” , with discussions “focused on narrowing and resolving remaining items to move closer to a comprehensive peace agreement”. Russian attacks killed four people in south-eastern Ukraine and left much of the northern region of Chernihiv without power on Saturday, officials said. Zaporizhzhia governor, Ivan Fedorov, said the morning attack on the city killed a man and a woman, and injured six others, including two children. In the adjacent Dnipropetrovsk region, officials said two people died in an area south-east of the main regional centre, Dnipro. Five people were injured in attacks at multiple places. In his nightly video address, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said power had been cut to parts of Chernihiv region, where efforts were under way to fix damage after a drone strike on an energy facility. Power and water supplies have also been cut to parts of Kyiv. Ukrainian forces shelled a public building in Russia’s border region of Belgorod on Saturday, killing four people, the regional governor said. Vyacheslav Gladkov, writing on Telegram, said the attack hit a “social site” in the village of Smorodino, without giving further details. ...

The Oscars Died Last Weekend...Did Anyone Even Notice? Submitted by QTR's Fringe Finance “Oh, the Oscars was yesterday,” my friend said to me while walking through town. She noticed that a nearby bar had the TV tuned to a replay of the ceremony. What surprised me was who said it. This is a person who is deeply, spiritually committed to things like what movies are in theaters and new fictional television shows. She loves the arts. She listens to jazz. She goes to see Broadway plays. She watches every prestige movie she can and regularly comments about what media has won what award. She follows celebrity gossip with the focus of a Vatican archivist. Her interests sit precisely at the intersection of everything the Oscars supposedly celebrates and is entrenched in. And yet she missed the award show entirely. That, in a nutshell, is the problem. Over the last several years, the Oscars have quietly drifted from being the cultural event, the night when the entire entertainment world stopped to watch, into something closer to an industry banquet that occasionally spills onto television. The ceremony still arrives with the same self-importance it had in the 1990s, but the culture around it has moved on. What used to feel like a shared national moment now feels more like political rally fused with fashion show and a desperate attempt to take 120 second acceptance speeches to prove one’s IQ is not in double digits. Part of the issue is that the movies the Academy rewards are increasingly invisible to the people watching at home. The ceremony still talks as if the audience has seen every nominee, debated every performance, and formed passionate opinions about the cinematography categories. In reality, most viewers have maybe heard of one of the films, vaguely recognize a second, and accidentally streamed a third while half-watching it on their phone during laundry. When the biggest award of the year goes to a movie the average viewer hasn’t encountered in any meaningful way, t...

Cuba’s electricity grid suffered another blackout on Saturday, the second major hit to its energy system this week, amid the US administration fuel embargo and pressure on the Havana government. Cuba’s electric system suffered a nation-wide collapse late Saturday, state-run news outlet CubaDebate reported, with work ongoing to restart power “as soon as possible.” A failure in a power unit in Nuevitas caused the outages, according to preliminary findings. Saturday’s blackout followed Monday’s , amid an intensifying US push to deprive the Cuban government of fuel and financing. The island’s 10 million residents have been subject to chronic rolling outages for years, now under an intensified embargo led by the Trump administration. The country’s thermoelectric power plants require about 100,000 barrels of oil a day to meet demand and domestic production accounts for just two fifths of that. The situation worsened as Venezuela’s years-long fuel lifeline was cut after the US took control over the South American country’s oil sales. A Russian fuel cargo on its way this week to the island veered away after Washington clarified that the country remains ineligible to receive Russian fuel. Cuba authorities have responded to the US push to open its economy by allowing private companies to partner with the state in a tentative step to help bring more fuel to the country.

Donald Trump threatened to deploy Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to US airports on Monday if congressional Democrats do not immediately agree to fund airport safety. Transportation Security Administration personnel are set to miss a second full paycheck on 27 March amid a partial government shutdown in its 36th day as lawmakers clash over funding for the Department of Homeland Security, the parent agency for TSA and ICE. “I will move our brilliant and patriotic ICE Agents to the Airports where they will do Security like no one has ever seen before,” Trump wrote on Truth Social on Saturday, in response to the airport staff shortages which have disrupted travel. More than 400 TSA workers have quit since the partial shutdown began on 14 February, DHS said. ICE agents are not specifically trained for airport security, which is TSA’s domain. Catching up? Here’s what happened on 20 March 2026.
