EV Stocks Weekly Wrap: Canada Opens Door to Chinese EVs as Tesla Faces Fresh U.S. Scrutiny

New York, Jan 16, 2026, 19:20 ET Canada’s choice to slash tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles thrust trade policy back into the spotlight for EV stocks on Friday.

Verizon stock slides after FCC loosens phone-unlocking rule as fraud fight takes center stage

NEW YORK, January 13, 2026, 15:19 ET — Regular session Shares of Verizon Communications Inc dropped roughly 2.5% to $38.86 in Tuesday’s afternoon session after U.S. regulators scrapped a rule requiring the carrier to unlock phones 60 days post-activation. Verizon told the Federal Communications Commission that the policy drove significant fraud and cost the company hundreds of millions, with about 784,703 devices falling victim to fraud in 2023.

InterGlobe Aviation (IndiGo) stock: CCI antitrust review, DGCA scrutiny, and fresh analyst targets on Dec 20, 2025
