Anyone else notice that Gap (NYSE:GPS) stock has been on an absolute tear since May 2023? Since May, GPS stock has made a big move from $7 to $27. Much of it is justified, as it’s coming from strategic initiatives starting to pay off. Gap seems to have turned the corner across all its brands

Heading into 2024, many analysts believed Chipotle (NYSE:CMG) was on the verge of splitting its stock. But many weren’t prepared for the company’s 50-for-1 split, one of the recent most extensive stock splits.   Stock splits are generally seen as being bullish signs for a stock. This is even though a split doesn’t change the

Without a doubt, SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) stock is a lightning rod on Wall Street. You can love or hate the company, but you can’t just ignore SoFi Technologies. If you’re thinking about dumping your SOFI stock now, though, consider why the share price is down. After considering the facts and the big picture, you might choose to

When shares of Trump Media (NASDAQ:DJT) began trading under its new ticker on Tuesday, traditional media outlets could hardly understand the stock’s 50% rise.

Last year was the year of the Magnificent 7 stocks, the seven tech companies that powered the S&P 500 to a 24% gain. So dominant were those seven companies that if you removed them from the equation, the benchmark index would have generated only 8% for the year. That’s because the S&P 500 is a

Last year I interviewed several thought leaders about uranium, and I have to say that I’m a fan from a long-term perspective as the quest for cleaner fuel alternatives intensifies. A single uranium pellet outperforms traditional energy sources in electricity generation. We simply can’t move toward a green future without uranium. Now of course, I

In fact, I’d go so far as to say that

Stocks leaving analysts speechless are companies that most of those on Wall Street rate as strong buy. While there isn’t an S&P 500 company that gets all strong buys across the board, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence, a number of them have nearly perfect consensus among analysts’ opinions.  Of the index’s members, only seven have

The generative artificial intelligence (AI) frenzy has created a massive demand for advanced chips, which are required to support large language models and build AI applications.

For the past few issues of Hypergrowth Investing, we’ve talked about how both the U.S. Federal Reserve’s and Congress’ decision-making could ignite a huge boom in a tiny subsector of stocks. And today, we’ll dig into another factor – unrelated to the government – that should supercharge these stocks: artificial intelligence (AI). Now, if you’re

The Boeing (NYSE:BA) 737 MAX, an upgrade to the 737 with larger engines, first took to the skies in January 2016, setting the stage for a new chapter in aviation. As the saying goes, it can take years to build a strong reputation, but in the case of Boeing, a few short weeks to destroy

InvestorPlace.com contributor Rich Duprey recently suggested that Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) stock is a better buy than Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA).  Counterintuitively, the fact that Nvidia stock has outperformed AMD threefold over the past year does help make the argument that the former is ready to cool off while the latter has plenty of momentum left in

The U.S. Department of Justice and 16 state attorneys general are suing Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock for violating antitrust laws, causing the value of AAPL stock to drop by $115 billion on March 21.  Bloomberg reported, “The US lawsuit alleges that Apple has used its power over app distribution on the iPhone to thwart innovations that

While politicians often get it

Electric vehicle maker Nio (NYSE:NIO) successfully established itself as a premium brand within the China market. It differentiated itself from rival EV companies by creating a battery-swap business to serve as an alternative to charging.

I always get nervous when Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock falls because it’s such a big component of Elon Musk’s wealth. And given I have such a large following on X, I certainly don’t want to see risks to the platform I have the most reach on. Objectively though, it seems possible that Tesla could roundtrip all

Dividend investors seek stocks with the highest yields, solid earnings and cash flow to support them. However, not all stocks that offer high dividends have the financial performance to sustain them, and they may have to cut the return. These three stocks offer higher-than-average yields but have warranted caution over the last quarter and coming

Indicating that growth stocks are in the initial stages of a hot comeback, the iShares Russell 2000 (NYSEARCA:IWM), whose movements are largely determined by growth stocks, is up nearly 5% year-to-date. Moreover, on March 20, the U.S. Federal Reserve’s Summary of Economic projections indicated that the central bank still intends to cut its benchmark rate

If the AI boom is real, it must go beyond Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA), and there logically should be multi-baggers yet to come.

Memory and storage solutions critical for AI applications are the
