More than 4 in 10 shift workers say they do not earn enough money to save.

We all know that the cost of living pressures are biting hard, but that seems to be hitting shift workers particularly badly.

Over four in ten shift workers say that they are not earning enough money to put any away to save after covering daily expenses with inflation remaining stubbornly high.

That’s according to a new survey by Shift management platform, Deputy.

The survey also found that a fifth of respondents do not believe they are being paid fairly for their jobs, and 35 per cent want their employers to offer better pay.

Gen Z was the most likely to change jobs if they were offered more pay at 70 per cent.

That dropped off as respondents aged, with 52 per cent millennials, 50 per cent of Gen X and just under 40 per cent of baby boomers saying the same.

U.S. stocks rose Monday, driven by Oracle gains, as investors overlooked recent silver and bitcoin losses ahead of earnings week.

U.S. equities climbed on Monday as Wall Street kicked off a new month of trading. Investors looked past recent losses in silver and bitcoin, with optimism returning to major indices. The S&P 500 rose 0.7%, led by gains in Oracle shares following the company’s announcement to raise up to £50 billion for cloud capacity.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average surged 501 points, while the Nasdaq Composite increased 0.9%. Analysts note that the broader market is showing resilience despite mixed signals from tech and commodities.

More than 100 S&P 500 companies are expected to report earnings this week. Strong growth is predicted, even as some high-profile sell-offs continue to make headlines.
