The switch was up 5.5%. The technology infrastructure company reported a loss for the recent quarter, but a jump in revenue growth. The new seems to be positive for this company.

Coinbase Global fell 2% premarket. The largest U.S. cryptocurrency exchange’s income more than quadrupled as it benefited from a manic quarter that saw bitcoin set a record before dropping sharply. Bitcoin is a volatile asset as long as you don’t need the money you invest in Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency are good long-term investment. Index funds and stock are better for the long-term bulk of your money.

U.S.-traded Farfetch shares went up 31% higher premarket after the British-Portuguese luxury e-commerce platform reported a fourth-quarter loss that was not as severe as Wall Street expected. This is for big money clothing shoppers’ high-end clothes.

Tesla shares inched up 0.6%. The SEC is looking into whether recent stock sales by Elon Musk and his brother, Kimbal Musk, violated insider-trading rules.

Healthcare Realty Trust added 1.1% off hours.

Beyond Meat, shares plummeted 7.9% premarket. The producer of plant-based meat substitutes reported a bigger-than-expected quarterly fall amid a sharp decline in U.S. grocery sales. This in my opinion is because of covid and people don’t understand how killing animals for food harms the environment. We just want what we want and that is sad. As people get smarter about the meat industry these numbers will go up in my opinion we have some time to go. This is a hard sale for meat-eaters.
