Stocks to buy

In 2023, the landscape of high-growth investments is being reshaped by artificial intelligence. As a transformative business force, AI is catalyzing innovation. It’s making the top AI stocks a magnet for savvy investors. Trailblazers like OpenAI and Anthropic are leading this revolution, witnessing a revenue explosion that mirrors the sector’s dynamic evolution. Moreover, Statista forecasts

I appreciate any investor who’s wise enough to hedge their bets. While jumping into the fray with tech stocks, artificial intelligence and the latest fad can be a smart way to make money, it’s also important to diversify your portfolio with some safer, income-generating plays like utilities stocks. Utilities stocks may not give you the

After a November rally, December is off to a slow start. With earnings season winding down and investors engaging in tax-loss harvesting and profit-taking, the next opportunity for stocks will likely be a January effect. But will that rally broaden out to include Russell 2000 stocks? Certainly, that would be welcome news to many small-cap

Like other “Magnificent Seven” stocks, Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) shares rallied during November. During the month, AAPL stock rose from $171 to around $190 per share, representing around an 11% increase in the span of a few weeks. Since late last month, however, AAPL’s latest rally has petered out. Shares are now holding steady near the $190

Bitcoin (BTC-USD) and Ethereum (ETH-USD) are staples for investors, but potential millionaires may find small-cap altcoins intriguing. These tokens carry higher risks and limited regulatory protection, offering a speculative yet thrilling opportunity. However, anticipated events, including significant halvings and potential interest rate decreases, set the stage for substantial crypto value surges.  As Bitcoin soared, investors

It’s been a rough few months for lithium stocks. Albemarle (NYSE:ALB) slipped from about $250 to $126.16. Lithium Americas (NYSE:LAC) fell from about $22 to $6.52. The Global X Lithium ETF (NYSEARCA:LIT) dropped from $68 to $48.30. Livent Corp. (NYSE:LTHM) dropped from about $29 to $14.32. Piedmont Lithium (NASDAQ:PLL) fell from $62.50 to $27.18. All thanks to oversupply issues, and slower global adoption of

The holiday shopping season is off to a rip-roaring start. Industry data shows that consumers spent a record $9.8 billion shopping for Black Friday deals this year, and a record $12.4 billion shopping during Cyber Monday. On average, consumers spent $321.41 on holiday-related purchases over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, with toys, electronics, and gift cards

Do you remember how Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) was the object of scorn in 2022 and early 2023? Now, Intel is finally getting its due respect. Consequently, INTC stock has rallied, but this is a time to let your winners run, not take your chips off the table. Don’t get the wrong idea. Intel will have to face

When many investors often think of growth stocks, it’s the mega-cap tech giants that dominate the discussion. That’s for good reason. Many top tech stocks have outperformed the market for a long time. So, investors are loading up on market cap weighted index funds to capture these returns. However, plenty of high-growth opportunities extend beyond

Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock is within spitting distance of its all-time high. Given the stock’s recent momentum and strong analyst ratings, it’s entirely possible that a share price of more than $200 could be in the cards in short order. But is this stock one worth buying for its momentum, or will its relatively high valuation

As 2023 nears its end, it’s become increasingly clear that it has been a critical year. Sustainable transport stocks have reached new heights. They are now prime investment opportunities. Electric vehicle (EV) sales are skyrocketing, almost doubling each year. This surge is a financial boon. Every increase in market share sparks investor enthusiasm. BloombergNEF’s latest

The top tech stocks are more just the “Magnificent Seven” list or the next big thing in artificial intelligence. Today, in a higher interest rate environment, you can’t afford to gamble on companies with limited long-term prospects or poor financials. Markets aren’t rewarding bad financial management, nor are they throwing cash at losers with limited

With one month left in the year, it’s time for investors to consider buying stocks from the United Kingdom (U.K.). Recently, Vanguard highlighted that it expects U.S. stocks to generate annualized returns of 5.2% over the next decade, 280 basis points less than non-U.S. developed markets. Small- and mid-cap stocks make up a major chunk of

Even though Block (NYSE:SQ) is a premier player in the digital payments space, its 2023 performance is disappointing. A turnaround is likely imminent for SQ stock, however, as Block will soon be a leaner business and the company expects to earn substantial operating income this year. It’s understandable if some investors are concerned about Block’s future. Alyssa

In 2023 it’s safe to say that the biggest investing trends were artificial intelligence (AI) stocks and the “Magnificent Seven.” You could probably retire if you bet on all seven tech stocks in the past year. But now it’s time to look ahead to what the top investing trends in 2024 will be. There’s no

If you’re like millions of other retail investors, you’ve got whiplash from the past few months. Markets fluctuated as traders assessed economic news, consumer sentiment and stock prices. While that’s brought many undervalued stocks back to where they arguably belong, just as many losers are spiking back into overvalued territory.  If you want to capture

Starting out as an investor can be intimidating. As legendary investor Warren Buffett put it, there are two important rules to follow: One, don’t lose money. And two, remember rule number one. Of course, this is easier said than done, especially with hundreds of stocks to choose from. Often times, one can be left with

The top tech stocks are always a point of contention among investors. Some prefer sticking with reliable companies like the Magnificent 7, while others decry the same for being grossly overvalued. Others point to micro and small-cap stocks as the best moves to capture long-term upside. Others call that gambling.  Ultimately, a well-rounded portfolio of

As the cryptocurrency market continues to evolve and mature, many investors are looking for long-term opportunities to invest in digital assets. While the crypto market is still relatively new and volatile, there are several promising projects with the potential to grow significantly over the next decade. The breakout of Bitcoin (BTC-USD) and the anticipation of

EV stocks are one of the hottest investing trends of the decade. But that doesn’t mean investing in the sector won’t come with its ups and downs. So far in 2023, global demand for electric vehicles (EVs) has softened. While the long term outlook remains bullish, investors should be aware that most EV companies will
