Individuals are forced to avail poor credit car loans when their credit status is not up to the mark due to various reasons – the primary reason being not complying with the terms and conditions of existing loans and credit facilities. it is important to know that if one engages with a debt relief program, or files for bankruptcy, the credit scores will indicate the fact for as long as ten years. People can miss out on the monthly payments, and when that happens, the worst thing a person can do is “Do Nothing”. Ignoring the monthly payments would not solve the issue and worsen an already bad financial situation.Delinquency can lead to:* Big monthly late payment charges.* An increase in the rate of interest while availing credit facilities in the future.* The creditor sending the late or missed payment report to the credit bureau, which lowers the credit scores.* The creditor losing the borrower is confidence, which could result into litigations and lawsuits.Correcting DelinquencyIt is important not to panic if you have missed out on your monthly payment. The following suggestions may help you deal with your missed payment situation:* Call your car loan company offering auto loans for people with bad credit, and explain the financial hardship that has resulted into the default. Explain what is happened is a “One time happening” and it would not be repeated in the future, but it is difficult to pay right now, and you need some more time to redeem.* In case your loan provider would not allow you the “extra” time to repay, you could get in touch with your employer and ask for a cash advance against the monthly salary. Employers generally help out their employees, especially if they have been working for some time.* Alternately; one can also borrow partial amounts of the missed payment from friends and relatives, and pay off the creditor. People do not usually hesitate lending out small amounts of money, but are wary when approached for a bigger amount in the form of a “monthly” loan.* Check out if you have a couple of other bills whose payment can be delayed for some time. If that is possible, adjust the bill amount in paying off the missed payment, and the next month compensate by topping up the bill amount.Refinancing your Existing Car Loan or LeaseThe existing financial crisis can make it difficult for people to repay their bad credit auto loan monthly installments, and when faced with delinquency, individuals often feel if the monthly amounts are low and affordable, it is easier to make regular payments. One way of making this possible is by refinancing your existing car loan. One can refinance an existing mortgage loan, and refinancing an auto loan is not much different since the basics remain the same – the loan amount needs to be secured by some guarantee or collateral. In case of auto refinance, the car acts as a collateral. However it is important to have the exact depreciation suffered by the car and up to what amount the creditors evaluate the car. Availing an auto refinance can make loan repayment very easy, since the net payable rate of interest gets reduced, and the installment amount too is reduced to suit the borrower is monthly income or paycheck.Buying a Cheaper or a Used CarThere is another way of dealing with the situation if you feel you are likely to be delinquent, and it is not avoidable. New car loans involve larger monthly repayment amounts. If your car is current monthly installments are high, it is possible to sell of your car and buy a cheaper one, or even go in for a used car. In many ways it makes sense to sell the car, since it can help you to either repay the bulk of the total auto loan amount and thereby decrease your total outstanding amount, or else the person buying your car ends up redeeming the car loan. A good car loan lender can help you with this.
Finance & Banking Sectors Still the Major Players in IT Recruitment
A leading UK recruitment agency in the IT jobs sector has released data from their Q1 2009 records which indicates a strong resilience in the financial and banking sectors regarding their Information Technology recruiting power.The recruitment agency in question is well placed to provide a litmus test for the UK IT jobs industry having nationwide coverage and a wealth of experience in sourcing and placing vacancies and candidates in the IT sector. The strength of these sectors spans both temporary/contractual positions as well as permanent vacancies. The figures used are all based on actual client requirements that were received over the given period; as such they show national averages and consequently do not reflect specific regional differences.Contractual positions: 1. Finance; 2. Banking; 3. Investment Banking; 4. Government; 5. Telecoms.Permanent positions: 1. Finance; 2. Banking; 3. Pensions; 4. Telecoms; 5. E-Commerce.Given the well documented problems in these sectors in the second half of 2008 and the mixed results coming from the large financial institutions in 2009 so far, it is encouraging to note that these major players in IT recruitment are still topping the list for demand for IT talent. This helps to show the resilience of the IT sector, especially in organisations such as those in banking and finance which heavily rely on high tech systems and computerised data collection and distribution.Although in the back end of 2008 there were numerous redundancies across all job and industry sectors, including IT, the strength and importance of IT workers is borne out by the strong showing from these sectors which were most badly hit in the UK recession. Highly skilled technical staff in the demanding fields of IT programming, analytics and system architecture will always be in demand and are still able to command excellent salaries. Forming the lynchpins of virtually innumerable financial related institutions, the IT systems experts are finding that their skills are once again becoming increasingly in demand as the large organisations start to plan for the upturn that can be expected in the wider economy over the coming months.There may be more of a tendency in the short term for some companies to favour offering shorter term contracts, but as the economy stabilises and begins to show signs of growth we can expect to see a slight shift towards long-term and permanent contracts being offered to the most skilled IT staff, because the need for such professionals will be increasing all the time and companies will be keen to hold onto the top talent.Indeed some companies may already be rueing releasing IT workers last year only to find that they are now urgently in need of the very same skills even now as the first signs of recovery are being felt.The agency continues to closely the monitor the entire IT sector and as the year progresses will be making further informed observations about the UK IT jobs sector. On this evidence, the IT industry certainly remains a strong career path for relative stability and demand for skills.

Pfizer Rallies After Announcing A Huge Price Hike For Its COVID-19 Vaccines
S&P 500 is currently trying to settle above 3730 as traders’ appetite for risk is growing. The U.S. dollar has recently gained strong downside momentum as the BoJ intervened to stop the rally in USD/JPY. Weaker U.S. dollar is bullish for stocks as it increases profits of multinational companies and makes U.S. equities cheaper for foreign investors.
The leading oil services company Schlumberger is up by 9% after beating analyst estimates on both earnings and revenue. Schlumberger’s peers Baker Hughes and Halliburton have also enjoyed strong support today.
Vaccine makers Pfizer and Moderna gained strong upside momentum after Pfizer announced that it will raise the price of its coronavirus vaccine to $110 – $130 per shot.
Biggest losers today include Verizon and Twitter. Verizon is down by 5% despite beating analyst estimates on both earnings and revenue. Subscriber numbers missed estimates, and traders pushed the stock to multi-year lows.
Twitter stock moved towards the $50 level as the U.S. may conduct a security review of Musk’s purchase of the company.
From a big picture point of view, today’s rebound is broad, and most market segments are moving higher. Treasury yields have started to move lower after testing new highs, providing additional support to S&P 500.

S&P 500 Tests Resistance At 3730
S&P 500 has recently managed to get above the 20 EMA and is trying to settle above the resistance at 3730. RSI is in the moderate territory, and there is plenty of room to gain additional upside momentum in case the right catalysts emerge.
If S&P 500 manages to settle above 3730, it will head towards the next resistance level at 3760. A successful test of this level will push S&P 500 towards the next resistance at October highs at 3805. The 50 EMA is located in the nearby, so S&P 500 will likely face strong resistance above the 3800 level.
On the support side, the previous resistance at 3700 will likely serve as the first support level for S&P 500. In case S&P 500 declines below this level, it will move towards the next support level at 3675. A move below 3675 will push S&P 500 towards the support at 3640.
