Top 5 Steel Stocks of 2019

Despite the widespread use and global demand, the benchmark index that tracks the steel sector, the NYSE Arca Steel Index, declined by more than 21 percent in 2018. Starting the year at a value of 1,285, the steel index ended the year at a value of 1,013.

Here's what smart rich people really do with their nest egg

Most people think they're above average in intelligence, relationship status and professional achievement.

Lyft's Fast-Slumping Stock Quickly Leads to Investor Lawsuits

For Lyft Inc., whose stock has tumbled sharply since its March 28 launch, it took less than three weeks for disillusioned shareholders to sue the company over claims they were taken for a ride. Such lawsuits are a rite of passage for newly public companies, and have become even more common after the 2008 financial crisis, according to Cornerstone Research. Lyft was accused in two nearly identical complaints filed April 16 of exaggerating in its prospectus when it said its U.S. market share was 39 percent.

U.S. homebuilding near two-year low; permits extend decline

U.S. homebuilding dropped to a near two-year low in March, pulled down by persistent weakness in the single-family unit segment, suggesting the housing market continued to struggle despite falling mortgage rates. The second straight monthly decline in homebuilding reported by the Commerce Department on Friday probably reflected in part massive flooding in the Midwest, with housing starts in the region plunging to levels last seen in early 2015.
