      An Overview of the Market

      The past week proved to be a roller-coaster ride as the indices moved up and down on the Fed’s steps for curbing inflation. Wednesday proved to be very fruitful as investors cheered the chair Jerome Powell’s statement. Word of a 75-basis-point rate hike not being considered had investors rally big on Wednesday to mark it as the best day since 2020. Alas, the rally could not last and it had the U.S. stocks nosedive the day after with the industrial average sinking 1,063 points. Thus, it was another week on the losing line for the stocks.

      SIDU’s Analysis

      Among the industrial stocks, SIDU has been active the past week with its past five days’ gain standing at 36.53%. After making its debut last year, the company had made some nice progress so far. The company has established many key partnerships with well-known and significant companies like Aitech, Red Canyon Software, KSAT as well as NASA. Based on its developments and plans, SIDU expected significant customer and partnership growth in 2022.
