Stocks to buy

Anytime you bring up the concept of “forever stocks,” you’re running the risk of incurring a serious tail risk. Obviously, forever is a long time – long enough for something to go wrong. Still, certain entities stand out because they basically command permanent relevance. To be sure, my ideas for forever stocks are boring –

Despite the sell-offs in the broader indices like the S&P 500, the potential of aerial car stocks holds steady. These companies are pioneering a new era of aerial transportation. There are numerous possible applications of this technology, ranging from warehouse operations to search and rescue missions. An appealing fact about these flying car stocks is

In my last article on SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) stock, I discussed renewed bullishness following the release of the fintech/neobank’s latest fiscal results on Oct. 30. So far, a round of post-earnings bullishness has taken shape, albeit moderately. On Oct. 31, the first trading day after Q3 results hit the street, shares rallied by around 8.79%.

It’s never too late for a comeback. Some stocks have languished and underperformed for years only to bounce back on evidence that business is back on track and financial results are improving. As Q3 earnings have poured in, several companies that had largely been written off or ignored by investors have surprised to the upside.

The holiday has always been a time for reflection, celebration and gratitude for Americans. This is also a time when investors can buy restaurant stocks that can potentially rise in value during this holiday season as consumers take advantage of deals like Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

After a sharp sell-off since mid-summer, many investors are looking for the safety of quality, blue-chip stocks. That’s if they haven’t moved over to the relative safety of U.S. Treasury notes. However, more aggressive, risk-tolerant investors may still want to consider penny stocks. If that’s you, there are some options to consider.  One thing you’ll

It’s easy to understand the allure of penny stocks, particularly for those new to the market. For relatively little money, an investor can control hundreds if not thousands of shares of a company. And if the stock moves up by literally just pennies, you can make huge profits. The problem is that penny stocks are

In the ever-evolving financial landscape, 2023 has marked a triumphant return for tech stocks. Bouncing back from notable downturns last year, these stocks are now outpacing the broader market. Even as economic momentum slows, investors are flocking to industries flashing long-term growth potential. Moreover, while the allure of innovation tempts many, there’s a hidden gem

The outlook for 2024 may be a bit uncertain due to current macroeconomic and geopolitical events, not to mention the whole issue of monetary policy currently being implemented by the United States with the desired inflation targets. Even so, the current market cycle is presenting very good opportunities to position yourself and take the best

The online gambling market is booming. In fact, the market is projected to hit $95 billion in revenue this year. By 2027, it could hit $131.9 billion, as noted by Statista. Better, the number of online gamblers could rally to 233.7 million by 2027, too. All of that should create a massive opportunity for the online gambling

It might not be obvious looking at the stock market’s performance lately, but the third-quarter earnings season has been very strong. Despite indices sliding lower throughout October, financial results from corporate America have continued to recover from the sharp downturn seen in 2022. With nearly half of all publicly traded companies having reported their Q3

The future of the U.S. economy appears to be at a pivotal juncture as the Federal Reserve maintains interest rates at a 22-year high, with the possibility of further tightening on the horizon. Despite strong economic indicators, including a robust labor market and faster-than-expected GDP growth, the central bank remains cautious about achieving its 2%

Lithium stocks are facing a challenging 2023, as the global metal supply exceeds the demand from electric vehicle and battery manufacturers. This surplus is leading to a sharp decline in lithium prices, which has hurt the profitability and growth prospects of many lithium producers. However, some companies are managing to maintain their competitive edge. They

It’s interesting how news about one company can affect a range of other businesses. A perfect example happened not long ago, when PayPal (NASDAQ:PYPL) stock dropped even though there wasn’t any terrible news about the company. This is fine, though, as it just opened up a window of opportunity for value seekers to invest in PayPal. Granted,

DividendChannel.com has a list of 25 SAFE dividend stocks.  By the site’s definition, these stocks have a reasonably high yield; the quarterly dividend is accelerating, they’ve never missed or lowered dividends and they have paid dividends for at least 20 years.  Twenty years seems like a long time.

Every day, more and more technology companies are starting to dive into the world of artificial intelligence. Most people may indeed know and summarize artificial intelligence as something like ChatGPT, but it goes much deeper than that. This is just one example of the technologies these generative AI stocks are developing. Companies can participate in

For conservative investors, including those in and nearing retirement, highly reliable dividend stocks with a growth component are an excellent tool. That’s because these equities produce regular income and are likely to generate significant returns for investors through increases in their stock prices. They make for excellent top dividend stock picks. Investors can use the

At first, the idea of environmental, social and governance or ESG stocks to buy and hold doesn’t seem particularly lucrative. Generally, an understanding exists that people don’t become wildly successful because they’re truly philanthropic. So, the same applies to big corporations, right? Well, when it comes to sustainable stocks, it’s a nuanced picture. Of course,

I asked Google’s Bard to give me 7 AI stock picks it believes will double in value in 2024. The results weren’t far off from what I would expect. There’s a good representation of technology firms and a few firms that benefit from secular trends as well.  Alphabet isn’t on the list so Bard is

Looking ahead to the coming year, now may be the time to consider what are the top energy stocks to watch. Sure, crude oil prices at present are falling back. Concerns about slowing demand are once again outweighing geopolitical developments that have led to brief spikes in crude prices over the past few months. But
