Contemporary Amperex Technology Co. Ltd. reported quarterly net income well short of analyst estimates as the global slowdown in electric vehicle sales starts to bite.
While net income for the third quarter ended Sept. 30 rose 26 percent to 13.1 billion yuan ($1.8 billion) versus the same period last year, that was a lot lower than the 14.7 billion yuan expected. Revenue shrank 12.5 percent to 92.3 billion yuan year-on-year, sharply down on projections for 118.4 billion yuan.
The world's largest maker of EV batteries is being hit as automakers from General Motors to Ford begin to scale back EV production plans and delay model launches.

It's also about the number of Americans who own stocks.
Even though it's not regulated by a government agency, cryptocurrency is becoming mainstream. However, President Biden recently signed an executive order to address cryptocurrency risks with a whole-of-government approach that could make cryptocurrency even more attractive to investors as well as traditional banks and credit unions.

For the near term though, cryptocurrency remains a volatile, speculative asset that will likely continue its gut-wrenching booms and busts. That's not to say that cryptocurrency doesn't belong in a well-diversified portfolio, but I recommend that my clients first educate themselves about cryptocurrency before deciding whether or not to invest.
As Warren Buffet said about investing in cryptocurrency: "I get into enough trouble with the things I think I know something about. Why in the world should I take a long or short position in something I don't know about?"
Here are some important concepts to get comfortable with.
