Read MoreHide Full Article
After observing the New Year’s Day holiday on Monday, the stock market had a solid first day of trading this year on Tuesday, as all three of the major indexes were up on the day. Once again, news involving Donald Trump grabbed headlines; this time, it was thanks to Ford announcing the cancellation of its proposed Mexico plant as a “vote of confidence” in the president-elect.
Also, investors are focusing in on the IPO market after a relatively sluggish 2016. With volatility over the U.S. Presidential election and Fed’s interest rate hike subsiding, we could be in store for a busier year in the IPO market.
Shares of Ford Motor Company (F - Free Report) jumped more than 2.5% in morning trading Tuesday following the automaker’s announcement that it is cancelling plans to build a new manufacturing plant in Mexico and instead will invest $700 million in its home state of Michigan.
The IPO market is anticipated to revive in 2017 as volatility over the U.S. Presidential election and Fed’s interest rate hike subsides. President-elect Donald Trump’s promised policies to stimulate the U.S. economy through infrastructure spending as well as regulatory and tax reforms is expected to encourage investors on IPOs.
Today we’ve highlighted five stocks that are currently trading for under $10 per share. These stocks are also showing signs for solid growth in 2017, and all of them currently hold a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).
