5 apps I recommend to every savvy investor

Rita El Khoury recommends several investment apps based on her extensive experience in finance: - Koyfin: Her favorite for comprehensive market data, including financial records and analyst projections. It is user-friendly and free, with a subscription for additional features. - Yahoo Finance: A widely used app known for its extensive financial data and robust news section, crucial for timely market reactions. It offers a free version and an ad-free premium plan. - TradingView: Best for technical analysis, featuring superior charting capabilities and a community for sharing insights. While Rita focuses on a buy-and-hold strategy, it is valuable for active traders. - Investing.com: Covers a wide range of assets and includes features like watchlists, fundamental data, and alert notifications. It offers a free version and a premium option. - MarketWatch: Provides timely news and analysis, particularly on earnings announcements. It combines news, financial data, and charting but is less robust than Koyfin. It is free, with a premium subscription for more articles. Rita has also tried other services like FinViz and TIKR but found them limited due to the lack of dedicated mobile apps.

PlayStation PC Games Are Now On Xbox, Sort Of

Microsoft has introduced a feature in its Xbox PC app that allows users to access a gaming library from various PC storefronts, including Epic and Steam, enabling players to view popular PlayStation games available on PC, such as Spider-Man: Miles Morales. While these games can be viewed in the Xbox app, they will not include Xbox achievements or enhanced functionalities. Microsoft is pursuing a strategy to transform Xbox into a platform similar to Steam, focusing on collaboration rather than direct competition. Xbox president Sarah Bond has indicated a vision for a more interconnected gaming ecosystem with the next generation of Xbox consoles. Microsoft has canceled plans for a dedicated Xbox handheld device and is instead supporting third-party devices like the ROG Xbox Ally and collaborating with Meta on the Meta Quest 3S Xbox Edition.

Will Death Stranding 2 be released on PC, Xbox, or Game Pass? Everything we know about Kojima’s new game

Death Stranding 2: On the Beach has launched as a PlayStation 5 exclusive, with no current plans for a PC or Xbox version, nor availability on Game Pass. A PC port may be possible several months after launch, similar to the original game's release timeline. An Xbox release at launch is not feasible, and while a future release on Xbox is possible, it is unlikely soon. Any potential inclusion on Game Pass would depend on third-party publishing agreements after the exclusivity period. Future licensing agreements, market demand, and technical adaptations could influence broader availability.
