Fractal Analytics Ltd. shares fell in their Mumbai trading debut on Monday, signaling continued weakness in investor appetite for technology startups amid valuation concerns in an otherwise subdued stock market. Shares of the data analytics company dropped as much as 5% to 855.15 rupees after raising 28.34 billion rupees ($313 million) in an initial public offering at 900 rupees apiece. In a separate listing on Monday, shares of Aye Finance Ltd. fell as much as 3.9% to 124 rupees from their offer price of 129 rupees. India’s stock market is off to a subdued start of the year, which has also slowed the pace of IPOs after two years of fundraising records. Both Fractal and Aye Finance came to the market with downsized offerings after several delays and their stock performance will be another signal to consider for the more than 100 prospective issuers that have received regulatory approvals. Both companies launched their offerings with a view of capitalizing on a stock-market rebound this month following a trade agreement. Fractal’s IPO was 2.7 times oversubscribed after the company cut the size of its offering from 49 billion rupees. Aye Finance failed to secure full subscription for the sale cut to about 10.1 billion rupees from 14.5 billion rupees.
Some shopping centres in Hong Kong display unclear parking discount terms that often lead to disputes, the consumer watchdog has said, citing a case where a driver was billed HK$1,210 (US$155) for a full day, more than seven times the advertised rate.

Some shopping centres in Hong Kong display unclear parking discount terms that often lead to disputes, the consumer watchdog has said, citing a case where a driver was billed HK$1,210 (US$155) for a full day, more than seven times the advertised rate. The Consumer Council said on Monday that complaints about car-park services had remained persistently high in recent years, with 120 cases recorded in 2025, reversing a dip to 96 in 2024 and broadly matching 118 in 2023. In one complaint, a driver...
The stocks in this article have caught Wall Street’s attention in a big way, with price targets implying returns above 20%.

MiniMax Group Inc. shares surged in Hong Kong, buoyed by growing investor confidence in the technology offered by China’s generative AI startups. The stock gained as much as 30%, before closing up 25% in the city’s shortened trading session on Monday. Shares of rival Zhipu — whose official name is Knowledge Atlas Technology JSC Ltd. — advanced as much as 11% before ending the day up 4.7%. Both stocks have risen at least 300% since their Hong Kong listings in January. Shares in the two companies have been rocketing in recent sessions, bolstered by upgrades to their AI models as firms in the sector seek to grab additional user traffic during the approaching Lunar New Year holiday. MiniMax last week released an upgrade to its flagship model dubbed M2.5, which has been measured directly against Anthropic’s Claude Opus 4.6. Read more: ByteDance, Zhipu Jolt China’s AI Race Ahead of New Year “The model performance of MiniMax has improved significantly, particularly with version M2.5,” said Ke Yan , head of research at DZT Research in Singapore. “On several benchmarks, such as the software engineering SWE, M2.5 performs very close to Anthropic’s flagship Claude Opus 4.6 model.”

Over the past nine decades, Social Security has been one of America's premier social programs. Whatever one's opinion about it is, it's hard to deny that keeping retirees financially afloat is a good thing. As of December, over 53.8 million people were receiving retirement benefits.

Over the past nine decades, Social Security has been one of America's premier social programs. Whatever one's opinion about it is, it's hard to deny that keeping retirees financially afloat is a good thing. As of December, over 53.8 million people were receiving retirement benefits. One unfortunate thing about Social Security , though, is how often it changes. There are constant changes, such as the cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) , that you expect each year, and one-off operational changes that seemingly come out of nowhere. The latest Social Security change falls into the latter bucket. Image source: Getty Images. Continue reading

JHVEPhoto/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Readers have contacted me over the past few months, wanting me to start coverage on the company FMC Corporation ( FMC ) . I've never been opposed to it, but my coverage on fertilizers and agrochemicals has been at capacity for some time - though this is at least partially an excuse. The simple fact is, that I've never been a fan of the fundamental weakness that I've been able to see in FMC, even before the crash that we saw in 3Q of 2025. The recent pieces of news have not made this any easier, not in the least. You know me for a fundamental valuation investor, if you follow my work. The importance is in those two concepts. Fundamentals, one, meaning I want strong fundamentals or at least something I can understand. Secondly, valuation. Once I understand it, I want a good price for the relative risk that I am taking. The reason I have been so reticent on FMC is because I believe that the company has either failed to deliver one of those things or both. This article represents my first entry (and possibly last; we'll see what happens) into coverage for the company according to my valuation model, but don't mistake that for a high conviction rating. In fact, I rate it a "SELL". In this case, I believe that Seeking Alpha's valuation and Quant grades very nicely encapsulate what the picture of this company is. Quant has it at 11/12 (in spots in the industry), and 260 out of 280 in the sector. It's not a good ranking. Literally every single factor grade apart from valuation is at a D+ or worse - and the only reason that valuation is at A+ is because you're getting the companies for what in the long term could amount to "pennies on the dollar". Many analysts have been positive on the company, especially since the drop. They see the value in the assets, and the potential for an upside that certainly is here. But given what we're seeing in the fertilizer/agrochemical sector, is it worth it? Is it a risk worth taking here, given wh...
