Hey Scoopers,

Although going through a selloff on Monday, the markets closed the week with strong gains. — More on that in the “Overall Market” section.

Beyond the overall market, a semiconductor manufacturer received good news from analysts. Meanwhile, a hydrogen cell fuel company is not doing so well. — More on that in the “What’s Up?” and “What’s Down?” sections.

By the way, are you ready for in-person dating? — More on that in the “Water Cooler” section.

But, first, here is a recap of what happened in the market yesterday:

Finishing the Week

The stock market ended in the green zone on Friday.

After sinking at the beginning of the week, the three major U.S. stock indexes sealed all-time highs. Although the markets went through a sell-off on Monday under news about COVID-19 cases increasing, investors put aside the concern as the increase happened only among the unvaccinated and hospitalizations stayed stable.

Widening the Lead

So, what happened?

Shares of Nvidia (Ticker: NVDA) were up by more than 8% this week. The semiconductor manufacturer’s stock benefited from Morningstar’s comments about the company. Morningstar’s analyst Abhinav Davuluri is raising his moat rating to wide from narrow, thanks to intangible assets related to Nvidia’s GPU. The researcher believes Nvidia is widening its lead in the market.

Down Again

So what happened?

Shares of Plug Power (Ticker: PLUG) were down by more than 2% on Thursday. Although the hydrogen fuel cell company announced a new executive, investors didn’t feel excited about the news. The company hired David Mindnich, an ex-Tesla executive. Plug expects Mindnich to replicate its prior manufacturing success at the electric vehicle maker. The bearish sentiment toward alternative energy stocks might have affected the news’ impact.

Bumble Is Not Hot

So what happened?

Bumble (Ticker: BMBL) announced its first restaurant. “Bumble Brew” will be the dating app’s first restaurant to focus on a date-friendly approach. Although the company had plans to start the restaurant project before, the pandemic forced a postponement in its debut. Bumble expects the restaurant to be a perfect place for connections of all kinds, not limiting the experience just for lovely couples. According to the company, 90% of its US users are ready to date in real life again.

If the project works out, it could help Bumble recover its stock value that has been 24% lower since the company went public.
