<h3 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy LTBR Stock</h3>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Lightbridge &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy &#8220;fractional shares,&#8221; which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share. In the case of Lightbridge, which is trading at $9.9 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 10.1 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to &#8220;go short&#8221; a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
LTBR Price Action: Lightbridge shares were up 40.4% at $10.14 at the time of publication Thursday, according to <a href="http://www.benzinga.com/pro/register/?utm_source=BZprocontent072924&amp;t=be2bearmibe3na1">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Lightbridge Stock Is Surging Today: What's Going On?

The fintech ecosystem is accelerating at such a rapid pace that only the ongoing artificial intelligence boom has been capable of stealing investor attention away from the sprawling financial technology space.&nbsp;
According to McKinsey research, the fintech industry's revenues are expected to grow <a href="https://www.mckinsey.com/industries/financial-services/our-insights/fintechs-a-new-paradigm-of-growth" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">nearly three times faster</a> than the traditional banking sector between 2022 and 2028. Additionally, the potential 15% revenue growth of the fintech industry over the next five years could significantly outpace the 6% anticipated for the traditional banking sector. 
These figures suggest that fintech is on course to become a dominant player throughout the world of finance over the coming years, and we can already see evidence of wholesale changes occurring in real time.&nbsp;
2025 is set to be a key year in the growth of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/fintech/25/01/42818294/how-fintech-must-evolve-to-meet-the-needs-of-techs-new-wealth">fintech landscape</a>. According to Capgemini's World Payment Report 2025, digital wallets are not only the fastest-growing alternative to card payments today, but they're forecasted to <a href="https://www.thebanker.com/Digital-wallet-transactions-set-to-grow-while-card-payments-shrink-1726151109" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">handle 61% of total eCommerce payments</a> and 46% of in-store payments by 2027. 
Digital transactions rallied from a total of $802 billion in 2023 to an <a href="https://www.eposnow.com/us/resources/payment-trends/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">estimated $929.8 billion</a> in 2024, making 2025 a prime candidate to surpass $1 trillion for the first time. 
These fintech trends are set to resonate strongly on Wall Street, and we could see some of the sector's most innovative stocks rally off the back of market growth throughout the year ahead. With this in mind, let's take a look at three high-potential fintech stocks for investors to pick up in 2025:&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">1. PayPal (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PYPL#NASDAQ">PYPL</a>)</h2>
<ol>
<li></li>
</ol>
It's impossible to consider the brightest fintech stocks on Wall Street without looking to PayPal (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PYPL#NASDAQ">PYPL</a>). The market leader has more than 25 years of experience in the sector and operates a leading payments platform that benefits both merchants and consumers.&nbsp;
With around 432 million users, PayPal's market share makes the stock a formidable player in an industry that's populated by so many startups vying for attention.&nbsp;
In 2024, PayPal's stock rallied more than 44%, and its innovation pipeline and strong usage figures are set to push the company higher amid a wider fintech market rally.&nbsp;
Crucially, last year saw PayPal launch Ad Business, an innovative new service that empowers advertisers to tap into the firm's <a href="https://www.exchangewire.com/blog/2024/10/14/paypal-launches-ad-business-meta-expands-ad-placement-controls-and-brings-ai-chatbot-to-uk-privacy-certification-for-ad-tech-in-the-works/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">masses of data</a> on user payment transaction data across its platforms. 
This extra revenue stream plus PayPal's <a href="https://www.infoq.com/news/2024/10/paypal-cosmosai-llm-genai/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">utility of generative AI tools</a> in recent months to boost support for the creation of large-language models (LLMs) within its growing Cosmos.AI platform highlights a firm that's focused on growth. 
Of course, the rise of rivals like Apple Pay, Cash App, Square, and Adyen can all threaten PayPal's dominance in the future, but if it continues to protect its market share, PYPL will be a stock that deserves attention in 2025.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">2. SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOFI#NASDAQ">SOFI</a>)</h2>
<ol start="2">
<li></li>
</ol>
SoFi's (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SOFI#NASDAQ">SOFI</a>) rapid growth has propelled the firm into a high-potential prospect for the fintech industry.&nbsp;
With growth of 94.4% in 2024, SoFi emerged as one of the stars of Wall Street last year, and looking at the open banking firm's acquisition rates, it's easy to see why.&nbsp;
In 2020, the lending, investing, saving, loan refinancing, and real estate planning platform had over 1 million members. Today, SoFi has more than 10 million, representing an astonishing rate of growth in a relatively short period.&nbsp;
For the third quarter of 2024, SoFi reported record adjusted <a href="https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20241029800153/en/SoFi-Technologies-Reports-Net-Revenue-of-697-Million-and-Net-Income-of-61-Million-for-Q3-2024-Demonstrating-Durable-Growth-and-Strong-Returns" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">net revenue growth of 30%</a> to $697.1 million and a 64% combined growth in financial services and tech platform segments. 
SoFi Technologies has also shown a strong pedigree in its commitment to embracing artificial intelligence, and the implementation of AI features like transactional fraud detection and improved payment efficiency point to a company that's ready to scale further in 2025.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">3. Sezzle (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SEZL#NASDAQ">SEZL</a>)</h2>
<ol start="3">
<li></li>
</ol>
With a market capitalization of around $1.5 billion, Sezzle (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SEZL#NASDAQ">SEZL</a>) is a fintech platform that's ripe for growth in the year ahead.&nbsp;
Launched in 2016 as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/bnpl">buy now pay later (BNPL)</a> startup, the digital payment platform has excelled in providing consumers with flexible payment options for their purchases.&nbsp;
Achieving its first quarter of profitability in November 2022, Sezzle has an <a href="https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/top-5-nasdaq-fintech-stocks-updated-january-2025">estimated 529,000 active subscribers</a> and has generated $8.1 billion in merchant sales since its launch alongside 15 million completed sign-ups.&nbsp;
The stock went public in August 2023, and in its first calendar year of public trading in 2024 SEZL rallied more than 1,250%.&nbsp;
Sezzle's Q3 2024 earnings showed impressive revenue growth of <a href="https://www.stocktitan.net/news/SEZL/sezzle-reports-third-quarter-2024-46m3beg7flpr.html">71.3% year-over-year</a> to $70.0 million, underlining 2024's role as a breakout year for the stock. If it can nurture its increasing flows of custom, last year's performance could be a springboard for future outperformance as the cost-of-living could see more US consumers turning to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/fintech/24/10/41385123/apple-pay-expands-buy-now-pay-later-with-affirm-adds-support-for-third-party-browsers-and-more">BNPL</a> to manage their finances.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Future-Proofing Your Portfolio</h2>
The sustained rise of fintech stocks is showing no signs of slowing and could be an excellent option for investors seeking to support their portfolios with strong growth stocks from the finance technology sector.&nbsp;
As an industry that's rapidly embracing new innovations, the fintech landscape can change at a rapid pace, so it's important to constantly audit your holdings to ensure that your chosen stocks still possess the fundamentals to ride the sector's boom period without any nasty surprises in the future.

It has the biggest television entertainment subscriber base in both the United States and the collective international market, with more than 300 million subscribers globally.

'EV Maker Nikola Explores Sale, Partnerships With Cash Dwindling' - Bloomberg News

General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) shares are trading higher Thursday on reports the company and Hyundai are forging an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/43155095/gm-recalls-nearly-3000-chevrolet-equinox-evs-over-adaptive-cruise-control-glitch">EV partnership for North America</a>.
What To Know: Hyundai has confirmed ongoing talks to supply commercial electric vehicles to GM as part of a broader collaboration that includes parts procurement and passenger vehicle cooperation, according to Reuters. The companies reportedly aim to finalize binding agreements by the end of the first quarter of 2025.
&#8220;We are considering re-badging our commercial EVs and supplying GM&#8230; The deal will pave the way for our entry into the North American commercial vehicle market,&#8221; Hyundai CFO Lee Seung Jo reportedly said on an analyst call.
The planned partnership comes as both automakers navigate uncertainties in U.S. trade policy under U.S. President Donald Trump, who has proposed potential tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico starting Feb. 1.
Separately, GM announced a recall of 2,890 all-wheel-drive Chevrolet Equinox EVs from the 2025 model year this week due to a software calibration issue in the brake control module. 
The malfunction affects the adaptive cruise control feature, preventing the vehicle from braking as designed, which increases the risk of crashes. GM dealerships will address the issue by updating the software to restore proper functionality.
The Equinox EV, introduced in 2024, accounted for 41% of GM's electric vehicle sales in the fourth quarter, with 18,089 units delivered during the period. It was the 8th best-selling EV in the U.S. last year, with 28,874 units sold.
GM Price Action: General Motors shares were up 2.49% at $54.07 at the time of publication, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard?new_user=False&amp;backend=google-oauth2">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Behind the Scenes of NIO's Latest Options Trends

We all know that comparing ourselves to others can be a slippery slope, but when it comes to retirement savings, it's hard not to wonder: Am I doing better or worse than the average saver? Checking <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/02/37402311/the-median-401-k-balance-for-any-age-is-much-lower-than-expected-many-over-50-year-olds-have-bar">where your 401(k) balance sits</a> can give you some insight, but remember – your retirement is your own journey and no two paths are the same.
What's the Average 401(k) Balance?
According to Business Insider, Vanguard reported the median 401(k) balance across their accounts was $35,286 as of September 2024.&nbsp;
On the other hand, the average balance sits much higher at $134,128, according to the same report. Before you start celebrating – or panicking – remember that averages can be skewed by those with particularly large or small balances.
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>The average 401(k) balance soars to a record-breaking high – <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/average-401k-balances-soars-to-record-high">Here's how to know if your nest egg is keeping pace.</a></li>
<li>The average American couple has saved this much money for retirement —<a href="http://www.benzinga.com/money/smartasset"> How do you compare</a>?</li>
</ul>
The difference between the median and average is simple: The median shows the middle saver, while a few million-dollar accounts might pull the average up. So if you're sitting somewhere between these numbers, you're likely in line with many other savers.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Here's a breakdown by age, as reported by Nerdwallet:</h2>
20s (Under 25):
Median: $2,816 &#x7C; Average: $7,351
30s (25-34):
Median: $14,933 &#x7C; Average: $37,557
40s (35-44):
Median: $35,537 &#x7C; Average: $91,281
50s (45-54):
Median: $60,763 &#x7C; Average: $168,646
60s (55-64):
Median: $87,571 &#x7C; Average: $244,750
65 and older:
Median: $88,488 &#x7C; Average: $272,588
If you're behind these numbers, don't sweat it too much – there's still time to catch up.

How to Boost Your Retirement Savings
Saving for retirement isn't a sprint; it's more of a marathon. Even if you're not exactly where you'd like to be, there are steps you can take to increase your savings and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/09/40753320/new-report-the-u-s-has-more-401-k-millionaires-than-ever-even-though-people-feel-the-economy-isn">feel more secure about your future</a>.
1. Automate Contributions
The easiest way to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/07/40079097/41-of-people-dont-realize-theyre-paying-fees-on-their-401-k-heres-some-other-common-misconceptio">ensure you're saving consistently</a> is to automate it. Set up direct contributions from your paycheck into your retirement account. This way, you won't even have to think about it. Automating helps you stick to your retirement savings goals by making saving part of your normal routine.&nbsp;
2. Increase Your Contributions
Try bumping it up yearly as you get comfortable with your current contribution rate. Even a small 1% increase can make a big difference over time. Automatically escalating contributions ensures your savings rate grows with your income without manual adjustments.
3. Max Out Employer Match
If your company offers a 401(k) match, ensure you contribute enough to get the full benefit. This is free money – essentially a 100% return on the portion your employer matches. It's one of the best ways to boost your retirement savings.

What to Avoid: Taking on Too Much Risk

Retirement savings are best treated with patience.
Whether your balance is above or below the average, it&#8217;s important to consider your financial goals. Retirement savings aren't a competition – they're about ensuring you're set up for your desired lifestyle.
It might be worth <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">talking to a financial advisor</a> if you're not quite where you want to be with your savings or just want reassurance that you're on the right track.
