JD.com's (JD, $49.74) Q1 sales surge more than +20% year-over-year

JD.com  posted first-quarter sales that soared from the year-ago level,  although earnings declined over the same period.

The online retail company’s  sales for the first quarter came in at $120.6 billion, which is +20.7% higher from the same quarter of 2019.

However, net income of 10 cents an American depositary receipt, was far below the 70 cents per ADR that it earned in the first quarter of 2019.

JD.com’s fulfillment expenses (which include procurement, warehousing, delivery, customer service and payment processing expenses) increased by +29% for the first quarter.

JD.com experienced a surge in consumer demand even amidst the coronavirus pandemic, as inactive and infrequent customers returned to the platform, according to the company. Annual active customer accounts climbed almost + 25% year-over-year to 387.4 million as of March 31. Mobile daily active users increased by +46% over the same period.

What's the Difference Between Tokens and Altcoins?

What's the Difference Between Tokens and Altcoins?

Between their inherently technical nature, multiple varieties and sub-varieties, and endless terminology, cryptocurrency (defined here as digital or virtual currencies that are encrypted using cryptography, powered by the immutable digital ledger known as the blockchain) represents a whole, complex world.All altcoins possess their own blockchain, independent from their source code, that records all transactions of their native coins. Many altcoins are variants, or forks, of Bitcoin that leverage that cryptocurrency’s open-source protocol as the basis.

4 Ways to Save for Retirement Without a 401(k)

4 Ways to Save for Retirement Without a 401(k)

401(k) plans are attractive savings options for good reasons: tax breaks, potential employer matching, and access to growth investments.Roth IRA contributions are made in after-tax dollars, and withdrawals for account owners age 59 ½ or older are tax free (if the account is at least five years old). Investors with an individual adjusted gross income below $32,000 can even claim between 10 and 50 percent of contributions as a saver’s tax credit.
