From a report: The root of the issue is the inability of lawmakers to extend a key tax provision that had bipartisan support at the end of last year that allows for the full expensing of research and…
2 Best Software Stocks to Buy in 2023 and Beyond
So far, 2023 has been an excellent year for those investing in software stocks. Most companies operating in the technology sector have seen their valuations surge, as investor confidence returns to higher-growth segments of the market. Of course, whether this trend continues for the remainder of the year, or if a sell-off awaits, remains the key question on the minds of most investors.

Tax Challenges Of The Software-Powered Economy
Cloud computing concept getty “Software is eating the world,” wrote Marc Andreessen in The Wall Street Journal in 2011. Eight years later, in a Forbes article, Peter Bender-Samuel observed that software may be eating the world, but services are now eating software. The “as-a-service” model has proven to be more efficient and productive than owning the software. Companies are increasingly opting to use software delivered in the cloud rather than building their own data centers. Initially, we had software as a service (SaaS), infrastructure as a service (IaaS), and platforms as a service (PaaS). Gradually, these concepts evolved into a…

Ukraine is using Palantir’s software for ‘targeting,’ the CEO says
By Jeffrey Dastin PALO ALTO, Calif (Reuters) – Data analytics company Palantir is “responsible for most of the targeting in Ukraine,” Chief Executive Alex Karp said Wednesday, elaborating on the US company’s work with Kyiv since Russia’s invasion last year. Its software helps Ukraine target, for instance, tanks and artillery, a Palantir spokesperson said. The remarks are some of Karp’s most direct yet on how Palantir, which got its start two decades ago supporting US intelligence services, is aiding Ukraine’s war efforts.
