Shares of Tesla, Inc. increased to a record high. Tesla joins the S&P 500 today and funds that model the S&P 500 purchased 1.7 billion shares just before the markets closed on Friday, according to an article in The Wall Street Journal. Tesla's share price increased $39.10 to $695, which boosted its market capitalization to over $628 billion, the highest in the automotive industry.

I like the way Higher Rock makes economics understandable by providing clear written text, entertaining videos, and instructive interactive exercises.
I love the Scripture lessons!
The Higher Rock lessons have been presented in an easy-to-understand format, with the information in each lesson being very relevant and extremely helpful in furthering my knowledge of economics. I appreciate that the lessons are straightforward and are explained in terms that are accessible for people with varying levels of exposure to economics.
