The cannabis sector has been relatively quiet lately. With federal legalization in the U.S. likely still years away, many investors have turned their attention elsewhere, leaving cannabis stocks to collect dust. However, just because the hype around cannabis stocks has faded, doesn’t mean there aren’t still some strong buying opportunities in this space. In fact,

If timing entries are not your forte, having a shortlist of growth stocks to buy may be for you. Growth stocks offer some of the best returns in the market. For example, last year’s “Magnificent 7”, including Google, Meta, and Amazon, pushed the S&P500 to all-time highs. While that’s impressive, some investors might not want
Blockchain stocks stand on the cusp of a revolutionary leap, leading the digital era forward. Beyond Bitcoin’s (BTC-USD) 94% surge in the last six months, blockchain is reshaping industries with unparalleled transparency and efficiency. With its market value expected to soar from $4.8 billion in 2022 to $2.3 trillion by 2032, blockchain presents a compelling
Though it may not seem so, this year’s stock market trends have yet to materialize fully. Artificial intelligence drove 2023’s stock market trends; in years past, electric vehicles, meme stocks, and even blockchain tech drove market movements. And, of course, macroeconomic cycles and monetary policy shoulder their share of the burden when it comes to
In an age of analytics, analyst reports are sort of like a baseball player’s slash line. Knowing about stock upgrades and stock downgrades is an essential part of your research, but ultimately, they only tell you so much. That’s particularly true in volatile times such as investors have been living through for the last four
Some stocks have complicated bull cases, but that’s not really the story here with Marathon Digital (NASDAQ:MARA). In a nutshell, a continued Bitcoin (BTC-USD), coupled with the company’s efforts to produce more BTC at greater efficiency, bodes very well for the MARA stock outlook. I have laid out this bull case for Marathon in past
Al Jazeera has called 2023 “the year of the layoffs.” As the news organization pointed out recently, it started badly in 2023, when Salesforce (NYSE:CRM) cut 10% of its global staff. CEO Marc Benioff might be a big believer in stakeholder capitalism, but 2023 proved that even he wouldn’t stand for an excessive work force.
The electric vehicle (EV) market is likely headed toward a slump in 2024. Interest rates remain elevated, and the Federal Reserve does not want to be hasty about cutting them either. Moreover, despite the economy performing better than many had predicted, consumer sentiment remains below where it was before the pandemic. Despite this, there are good reasons to invest in
Battery stocks play a critical role in the burgeoning EV revolution. Moreover, McKinsey’s’ forecast shows the battery market is expected to grow to a whopping $400 billion by 2030. This represents a hefty 30% bump from 2022, outpacing estimates and electrifying investor prospects. Amid a robust U.S. economy, the Federal Reserve’s current hold on rate
Artificial intelligence (AI) stocks are a shining example of potential. They exist in the fast-paced world of finance. Here, data and insight are the driving forces behind the future. Today, we explore this possibility via AI stock forecasts. There is a particular emphasis on one of the most powerful AI models. This journey started with
Some once great companies have fallen on hard times, causing their stock to sink. While surprising, the long-term decline of powerful brands is nothing new. Business history is littered with discarded companies that were once dominant but became irrelevant value traps over time. Many great companies cease to exist and become top blue-chip stocks to
Analyst upgrades consistently offer valuable insights, deftly guiding investors through market dynamics. 2024 unfolds a promising economic landscape, diverging from past apprehensions. Contrary to previous fears, the U.S. economy is poised for a staggering $7 trillion growth over the next decade. Moreover, this positive outlook is reinforced by widespread analyst upgrades across various sectors, reflecting
The AdvisorShares Pure US Cannabis ETF (NYSEARCA:MSOS) has surged by nearly 30% year-to-date, showcasing the rejuvenated demand for cannabis stocks. Salient to the ETF’s year-to-date performance has been the increased popularity of high-beta securities. Moreover, many anticipate that marijuana will soon be downgraded to a Schedule II category substance from its current Schedule I status,
Not every touchdown during Super Bowl 58 happened on the field. Advertising slots are very competitive during the big game and cost companies millions of dollars to run. These corporations only have 30 seconds to make a lasting impression on viewers as they wait for the game to resume. Commercials can bring awareness to new
You want speculative stocks with upside potential up to 3X returns? I’m going to give them to you. But you have to accept the risk. There’s (usually) no such thing as a free lunch and that especially applies on Wall Street. No one’s just going to give you stocks with upside potential to 200% or
The stock markets have been on a hot run for many months on the back of renewed enthusiasm due to rates and the continued run in artificial intelligence (AI). Undoubtedly, last week’s consumer price index number was a bit of a setback. But, markets managed to move on from the disappointing (and a tad overheated)
Buying call options is a lot like (American) football. Sometimes, you run the ball up the middle. And sometimes, you do a misdirection and run a bootleg. At their core, call options represent a mixture of speculation on time value and intrinsic value. Knowing which one to deploy depends on myriad factors, including confidence in
The stock market’s strong rally in 2023 caused many investors to forget about the tumultuous times in 2022. While the stock market is experiencing strong momentum at the start of the year, thanks to artificial intelligence and other factors, not everything has gone up in bullish markets. A few stocks missed out on the 2023
There are a few flying car stocks on the market today I believe could lead to substantial gains for investors. These companies are known for high growth potential as well as relatively low valuations for what investors get for their money. Although these companies are in the very early stages of development and are risky,
It makes sense that enterprise artificial intelligence company C3.ai (NYSE:AI) and its investors would benefit from the machine-learning boom. However, “AI fever” seems to have reached a dangerous tipping point. If your AI stock outlook is too optimistic, you might overlook the major downside risks. Plus, the stock is susceptible to a sharp pullback because there’s a crucial
