1 In 5 Americans Are Still Working From Home The COVID-19 pandemic marked a dramatic shift in workplace dynamics, as working from home suddenly became the norm for millions of workers in the United States and across the globe. As Statista's Felix Richter notes, this transformation offered employees newfound flexibility, enabling them to manage their time more effectively, eliminate commutes, facilitate childcare and often achieve a better work-life balance. Remote work also allowed for a customized work environment, fostering comfort and productivity for many. However, traditional office settings continue to hold unique advantages, which is why, six years later, more and more employers have called their workers back to the office for most days of the week. Offices facilitate in-person collaboration, spontaneous brainstorming and social interaction, all of which are challenging to replicate virtually. Additionally, the structured environment of an office can provide clearer boundaries between work and personal life, reducing distractions and helping employees switch off when at home. According to Statista Consumer Insights , 1 in 5 American employees still worked from home regularly in 2025 , while 43 percent of respondents regularly worked in a company office. You will find more infographics at Statista In many cases, hybrid models combining the benefits of both setups have emerged, catering to diverse employee preferences and living situations and striking a balance between the benefits and disadvantages of both working from home and in the office.

Despite the rhetoric suggesting otherwise, a bunch of people are going to remain in New York when they retire. A handful of individuals will even move to New York in their golden years. And this begs the question... What does it cost to afford a comfortable retirement in the state of New York? Take any such estimate with a grain of salt -- it's usually a sweeping calculation using a wide range of input that may or may not work for you. Also bear in mind that living in a more metropolitan area like New York City will cost considerably more than retiring in a rural area like Hamilton County, in the north-central part of the state.

Maskot/DigitalVision via Getty Images Introduction It’s been fun hunting potential investment ideas in the software space. Since the start of the year, the iShares Expanded Tech-Software Sector ETF ( IGV ) has fallen 20% on the back of AI fears and investors questioning how AI might disrupt software business models. Data by YCharts One such company I think has slid quite far is Q2 Holdings ( QTWO ), a digital banking software company that’s fallen 27% year to date. In my view, the competitive advantages, a margin expansion story that is playing out in the numbers, and a management team that is allocating capital intelligently make this a story worth diving into. After reporting Q1'26 results this week, my hesitation about the business is more around what you’re paying for it. In the low $50 range, this is a stock where the quality of the business isn't really in question; the price is. A look at Q1'26 results Q2 Holdings provides digital banking software to banks, credit unions, and fintechs. Essentially, the platform sits between a financial institution and its end users. Chances are you’ve interacted with their technology without realizing it. Q2 Holdings builds the apps where you check your balance, deposit checks via your camera, and move money between accounts. They also handle data for hundreds of banks as it relates to security and fraud detection by using AI to spot unusual patterns (like a login from a different country) and block hackers. Finally, Q2 also provides a software for when a small business applies for a loan; they help banks digitize the paperwork to make decisions faster. As shown below, the business is predominantly subscription-based, with subscription revenue making up 83% of total revenue. Company Filings That context matters because when looking at what drove Q1'26 , the headline 14% revenue growth actually understates the momentum in the core business. Subscription revenue grew 16% year over year to $179.9 million , while transactional re...
