Stocks to buy

With rise in trading activity coupled with interest in penny and meme stocks, investors, in general, are looking for quick gains. It makes sense to allocate some funds for short-term trading. However, there is little doubt on the point that best returns come from long-term stocks. Talking about investing and the patience to hold quality

Wall Street investors are very fickle these days. They are showing no commitment in either direction for longer than a few hours at a time. This makes it very difficult to commit capital with great conviction. This dynamic is part of what has impacted Teladoc (NYSE:TDOC) stock. TDOC has given up the entire relief rally

Investors in Robinhood Markets (NASDAQ:HOOD) stock have not had much to celebrate since the company went public in July 2021. In fact, shares are down nearly 60% over the past six months. Yet, most market participants pay more attention to what users of the Robinhood app buy and sell more than price swings in HOOD

Novavax (NASDAQ:NVAX), the Gaithersburg, Maryland-based biotech company, still has not submitted its Covid-19 vaccine for emergency use approval (EUA) to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The company says it will do so by the end of January. But the market is skeptical and is still waiting to see when the EUA will happen. As

Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) stock has been in a sort of free fall for the past several months. I suspect that it may be at a point where investors can begin accumulating it. One reason is that I foresee that AMZN stock will stage a rebound sometime this quarter or in the spring. Source: BigTunaOnline / Shutterstock.com

Chinese premium electric vehicle (EV) maker Nio (NYSE:NIO) hasn’t had a smooth 2021. NIO stock was once trading at the highs of $60 and is down to $30 today. Nothing has gone wrong with the company but the overall investor sentiment has led to the sell-off. There are also several concerns associated with Chinese regulations and

I now jokingly refer the small cap sector to as the small crap sector. This is not to insult the companies within it, but rather to describe the price action plaguing their stocks. The sellers have been punishing the cohort for months while the S&P 500 and the DOW recently broke records. Among these small-cap picks

I’ve had my eye on Nio (NYSE:NIO) for a while now. I first bought NIO stock in June 2020 when it was less than $8 per share. I sold a little more than a year later when it was close to $50. Source: xiaorui / Shutterstock.com Sure, Nio was already off its all-time high at

We had another mixed day on Wall Street on Wednesday, suggesting a lack of commitment. The Nasdaq rose 0.4%, while the small caps fell twice as much. Meanwhile, the CBOE Volatility index (VIX) fell 4%, which suggests that sentiment is normalizing. Meanwhile, investors are flip-flopping with the slightest of headlines. Therefore, finding stocks to buy

Upstart Holdings (NASDAQ:UPST) was one of the big investment growth stories of 2021. At least, until last October. At that point, UPST stock crashed and it also became a cautionary tale about the downside of meme stocks. Upstart shares are now trading at around $120, which is right about where they were last June. They’re

It’s the start of a new year, and what better time to consider adding to your investment portfolio? After the holiday shopping season, big purchases may not be in the cards, though. So I’ve put together a list of stocks to buy that come in under $10 a share. One of the advantages of stocks

Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) emerged as one of the biggest stock market winners last year. NVDA stock generated over 120% returns for its investors in the past 12-months. Though its share price has gotten slightly ahead of itself, the chipmakers glowing reports justify its lofty valuation. Moreover, there’s still plenty of upside remaining with Nvidia, with it

AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC) has been falling for the past several months. This might make it appealing to value seekers. AMC stock is now down $22.78 per share as of Jan. 10. But this is down from its recent peak of $51.69 on Sept. 13. That gives it a tumble of 55% from the peak. Source: QualityHD

Nikola (NASDAQ:NKLA) is making great progress in manufacturing and generating orders for its battery-electric and hydrogen heavy-duty commercial trucks. With businesses and governments seeking to reduce carbon emissions in the U.S. and Europe, Nikola’s status as a first-mover in environmentally friendly semi-trucks should enable it to post great financial results over the longer term. Consequently,

Remember the days when Ford (NYSE:F) was the poster child of relatively safe, but ultra-slow investments? Those days are long gone, as F stock has provided jaw-dropping returns over the past year and a half.

There seems to be a shift in the market. Speculative growth stocks and cryptocurrency, among other hot 2021 trends, have slumped in recent months. Meanwhile, more defensive stocks such as energy, utilities, industrials and food and beverage companies are rising. Amid these shifting sectoral winds, it’s time to take a look at infrastructure stocks. Infrastructure

Ah, the joys of the content publication stream! During the time that this story about potential entertainment stocks jumping higher due to consumers wanting out of novel coronavirus-related restrictions was initially researched, the omicron variant dominated headlines. But recently, infectious disease experts identified a new variant in France. Are we on the verge of yet

I hypothesize that retail investors don’t spend much time considering country-specific exchange traded funds (ETFs) to buy.  I don’t have empirical data to back up this assertion. However, it seems logical that most smaller investors are looking to get more bang for their buck. For example, why buy three or four country-specific emerging markets ETFs

Solar stocks, for the most part, ended 2021 on a weak note. Many investors decided to take money off the table following significant gains seen in alternative energy names. For instance, the Dow Jones U.S. Renewable Energy Equipment Total Stock Market Index was down 24.0% in 2021. Yet, despite the volatility in shares prices of

Robinhood Markets (NASDAQ:HOOD) has had a rough several months. Since Oct. 26, when the company released its third quarter results, HOOD stock has fallen from $39.57 to, as of Jan. 7, $15.75. That represents a decline of just over 60%.
