This was followed by major buying interest in electric vehicles and other energy transition themes. When money flows out from one sector, it generally translates into undervaluation. This seems to be the case with
We’re still not prepared for cyberattacks. That includes the U.S. government, hospitals, corporations and millions of people all over the world.

The EV sector continues to undergo a period of extreme difficulty. EV sales growth is slowing, adoption rates are not as high as they once were, and global demand has weakened severely.

It’s been a month since Boeing (NYSE:BA) CEO Dave Calhoun announced that he would step down at the end of 2024. While his departure wasn’t termed a “firing,” there is no question Calhoun’s name would have been on a list, if there were one, of CEOs that need to be fired. The embattled company was

I’d argue that investing in the Dow in April is a particularly smart move. Dow Jones stocks represent 30 of the most prominent U.S. firms. Stocks listed in the Dow tend to be more defensive than the Nasdaq and other indices. The reason that matters is that investors are currently seeking safety. Rate cut expectations
I have been down on Palantir stock (NASDAQ:PLTR) for some time. It is, at its heart, a government contractor. Calling it an AI stock doesn’t change that. Military contracting is a profitable but slow-growth business. Palantir brought almost 10% of last year’s $2.25 billion in revenue to the bottom line. The question is always whether
Finding stocks to buy in today’s relatively overvalued and volatile market isn’t as easy as it was when initial rate cuts dropped top stocks to bottom-barrel pricing.

The electric vehicle (EV) has been continuously growing as we transition into sustainable energy and resources. Due to increased environmental awareness and consideration, consumers and governments are favoring EVs over traditional gas-fueled cars. As a result, this represents a high-growth potential market for EV producers. In 2023, the global sales for EVs surpassed 13.6 million,
Trade wars are always destructive. The current escalation in the chip wars will be no different. The Biden administration banned the use of equipment from China’s Huawei and ZTE over alleged national security concerns. Semiconductor stocks like Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) were prohibited from selling their high-end chips to China. Now Beijing is retaliating. It is barring
To borrow from an old Benjamin Graham/Warren Buffett concept, the market is a weighing machine in the long term. Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN) certainly has value as an exchange for popular cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC-USD). However, the market’s weighing machine is likely to send Coinbase stock lower as its valuation is too hefty right now. The market’s short-term voting
