Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock remains the world’s most valuable auto company, and by a wide margin. With a market cap of $558 billion, it’s worth $230 billion more than Toyota Motor (NYSE:TM), which is second at $329 billion. But the lead is narrowing. Toyota stock is up 75% over the last year. Tesla’s is flat. No
Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR) stock has had a very strong price performance over the past year. Shares have more than tripled. However, to attribute this solely to “AI hype” is a short-sighted take. Any supposed “hype” is far outweighed by this AI software company’s bona fide growth catalysts stemming from this trend. The company is already
Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) CEO Jeff Bezon just became the world’s richest person, and people who bought AMZN stock a year ago are also doing quite well now. However, this doesn’t mean Amazon’s shareholders are guaranteed a continued rally. Furthermore, cautious investors should think about Amazon’s valuation. Besides, Amazon’s new artificial intelligence chatbot isn’t perfect, and the company’s
Up 20% in the last month, and 50% year-to-date, the stock of Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) stock is a great choice in this bull market that is being driven by artificial intelligence technologies. AMD, as the company is commonly known, is a leading microchip and semiconductor company and a fantastic way to play the hype
Blue-chip stocks are established firms that offer revenue and earnings growth. Some of these companies are more mature and don’t go through as much volatility. Other blue-chip stocks can still grow and generate solid long-term returns but may be more prone to a market correction. These types of stocks are optimal for investors who can
The stock market has been performing remarkably well within the last year due to several factors, including reduced inflation, which has caused the Federal Reserve to change its tone when it comes to interest rate hikes. Between March 2022 and July 2023, the Fed raised interest rates 11 times. But, they predict that interest rate cuts
Your investing journey has to begin somewhere. For those of us who aren’t trust fund babies, we need to start with more modest sums. Putting $1,000 into the market at the beginning simply means it will take us longer to achieve our goals. It doesn’t mean we don’t invest in the stock market for annual
Based on my experience, I believe that young people often are early adopters of products and companies that end up being wildly successful. Two of the best examples of millennial stocks skyrocketing thanks to attention from the younger generations are Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) and Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA). Apple became one of the most successful stories in the
With another strong jobs report in the bag, the concept of targeting consumer staples stocks might seem overly cautious. Here’s the thing: nothing lasts forever. Last year, an alarming statistic pointed out that 93% of homebuyers have regrets about purchasing a home in 2023. That’s the real issue that investors need to be aware of.
At first glance, another gangbusters jobs report seems to imply that dividend stocks are irrelevant. It’s all about growth, baby! Well, maybe not. According to The Wall Street Journal, labor market growth continues – that’s the good news. However, the not-so-great news is that there are signs of a cooling employment arena. One of the
After closing out 2023 with a 15.1% gain, the Russell 2000 looks even better this year in the new year. In fact, since Jan. 2, the index is up about 4% year to date, and could push even higher, taking some of the most undervalued Russell 2000 stocks along for the ride. According to Goldman
With artificial-intelligence-related semiconductor stocks flying into low-earth orbit, you may be left wondering if there are alternative opportunities in the space. There are – and they enjoy the highest level of endorsement among Wall Street analysts. We must start, though, with a word of caution. Thanks to the stratospheric rise of companies like Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA),
Alcohol stocks fall into the consumer staples sector for their defensive attributes. It’s not that people “need” their products, but they tend to buy them no matter the state of the economy. Not surprisingly, brewers delivered outsized earnings growth of 32.4 when compared to the earnings growth of the overall consumer staples sector. However,
Looking at gold and Bitcoin (BTC-USD), multiple rate cuts might be on the cards in the next 12 to 18 months. It’s also good news for equities, so many look at fresh exposure to potential multibagger stocks. Notably, funds flow from blue-chip stocks to growth stocks during times of risk-on trade. Easy money policies can
Building a stock investment portfolio isn’t easy. One moment, you are tempted to wait for a dip, and another, you want to give in to the temptation of buying a stock at a premium with the hopes that it will generate strong returns. While it is impossible to time the market, it makes sense to
In 2021, meme stocks, led by GameStop (NYSE:GME), created seismic shifts in the investment landscape. The retail trading frenzy turned a market underdog into a sensation through the power of Reddit’s online communities. While the peak of the meme stock mania may have faded, its essence lingers, keeping the market abuzz with potential volatility and
There are some undervalued artificial intelligence (AI) penny stocks that are a great fit for investor’s portfolios. These companies trade at cheap valuations for a reason: namely, they have limited operating histories and there is a significant amount of speculation involving their future trajectories. However I’m also confident that these AI penny stocks could potentially
Investing for dividend stocks for passive income requires a fundamentally different set of expectations than chasing short-term gains. As such, I want to discuss my investing philosophy when it comes to buying dividend stocks for passive income. For starters, I prefer to position my dividend savings in treasury bonds. However, stocks are equally lucrative, if not
Of all the Cloud Czars, the one with the most potential for growth is Amazon.Com (NASDAQ:AMZN). AMZN stock investors should remember this. The question for investors is whether Amazon will achieve that potential. Amazon is much more than the world’s second-largest retailer after Walmart (NYSE:WMT). It dominates the cloud market with a 30% market share.
