Paysafe (NYSE:PSFE) is a newly merged special purpose acquisition company (SPAC). Until recently, the company traded as Foley Trasimene Acquisition under the BFT stock ticker.

Most Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (SPAC) are trading well below their highs. QuantumScape (NYSE:QS) is the exception.

Naked Brand Group Ltd (NASDAQ:NAKD) is a company that probably shouldn’t have survived 2020. A global operation consisting of multiple intimate apparel and swimsuit brands, Naked Brand spent 2020 losing money, closing down stores and selling off brands.

It’s the news that everyone was anticipating. Nevertheless, the strength of the March 2021 jobs report caught even some optimists by surprise. Hiring surged in the U.S. as employers added 916,000 jobs in March, representing the best gain since August of last year.
