The stock market has probably shaken out some investors with its recent swings in the S&P 500 index. This new volatility period has been born of President Trump's implemented trade tariffs on most of the United States' trading partners. As clear as these swings are, the effects of this uncertainty on the technology sector, specifically, have left most investors confused and worried about where their capital could be best invested moving forward.
With this in mind, most participants are concentrated in the market's semiconductor and artificial intelligence sectors, potentially leaving behind other worthy companies that could bring even more attractive upside potential. This is where shares of Upstart Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: UPST) come into play in this current environment, not only due to its potential catch-up to the rest of the technology sector but also due to its business model itself.
