U.S. equities have continued their incredible rally in 2024. Last year, despite major swings in performance, Nasdaq and the S&P 500 soared 43.2% and 24.2%, respectively. In 2024, excitement around artificial intelligence (AI) and recent economic data pointing to slowing inflation and a cooling job market have lifted the indices 22.6% and 16.8% for the
I strongly believe that investors need to have a dynamic approach when it comes to the world of modern investing. For sure, long-term investment delivers the best results. However, it makes sense to capitalize on all good opportunities. Be it the meme frenzy, penny stock investing or considering exposure to short-term profit stocks. I personally
Utility stocks have underperformed over the past few years. Investors shunned the sector due to worries about higher interest rates, which often magnify the impact on debt-laden utility firms. In addition, investors have placed less value on lower-risk dividend companies as the yields on risk-free government bonds increased. But now, the narrative is changing. The
With growth stocks under $5, the focal point is rather obvious: putting woodwork on the ball as aggressively as possible. Of course, swinging for the fences comes with significant risks. You can end up missing slightly and ruining a perfectly good opportunity to add in a run or two. Still, the rewards for getting it
The 2020s have been a rollercoaster so far, and who knows what the next ten years could hold for us. However, if we narrow the lens down to just the stock market, it’s been nothing but stellar for the past year and a half. Also, the coming years look rosy, at least according to the
To use a sports analogy, innovative small-cap stocks are akin to drafting college football players or picking out compelling prospects in baseball. While these players may have performed exceptionally well in the amateur leagues, there’s no guarantee that said performance will translate into the top tier of competition. However, when you do find the next
This summer is set to be a record breaker – with multiple heatwaves already impacting millions of people across the U.S. – even though we are still at the start of July. The weather has been so extreme that, tragically, people have passed away due to the heat this year. The heat will naturally cause
If you can count, you may find healthcare stocks focused on the aging population to be a compelling opportunity. What do I mean? When it comes to the senior care sector, the fundamental argument comes down to one word repeated three times: demographics, demographics, demographics. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the “U.S. population age
Boxing is a dangerous sport. Bare-knuckled fighting is even worse. Along with the long-term risks associated with repeated blows to the head, going no holds barred can potentially lead to catastrophic acute injuries, even the very risk of being “unalived,” to use the algorithm-friendly term. What does this have to do with hypergrowth stocks? In
Let’s cut straight to the chase. Thanks to this morning’s shocking inflation report, the market is experiencing a massive shift right now. And if you want to make money over the next 12 months, you’ve got to buy the stocks on the right side of this transition. Indeed, as it turns out, June’s Consumer Price
The U.S. stock market has been on quite the run over the past 12 months, fueled by potential interest rate cuts and economic optimism. Moreover, the generative AI craze and meme stock trading frenzy have been two major needle-movers turbocharging the market. Hence, many in the Wall Street punditry believe the market’s overheated, making it
The benchmark S&P 500 index is at a record high, having just closed above the 5,600 level for the very first time. So far, in 2024, the index is up 18%, marking one of the best starts in its history and the best start ever to a presidential election year. While the run has been
What goes up must come down, and there are a lot of stocks that look vulnerable to a plunge right now. With the market at an all-time high, many stocks have seen their share price double or even triple in the last 12 months. Yet more than a few of these high-fliers look as if
On Wall Street, the allure of high-growth small-cap stocks is undeniable. The potential for explosive returns can be a powerful motivator for investors seeking to outperform the market. These smaller companies, typically valued under $2 billion, have the ability to disrupt established markets. However, with this potential comes greater risk. Unlike their large-cap counterparts, small-cap
One of the best ways to multiply your wealth every summer is by picking up some of the top hurricane stocks to buy. With Hurricane Beryl, we were again reminded of how powerful and destructive hurricanes can be. We’re also reminded of how important it is to get out of their way and safeguard property,
I believe that many chip makers may very well be about to embark on a huge, multi-decade boom. While there’s a great deal of focus on the large extent to which the advent of artificial intelligence is boosting chip makers’ financial results, the chip space has other extremely powerful, positive catalysts that are getting much
In an era where stock prices often reach dizzying heights driven by optimism and investor enthusiasm, the risk of market bubbles remains ever-present. While soaring stock valuations can tempt investors with the promise of substantial returns, they frequently become unsustainable, leading to significant corrections. Recognizing when a stock is overpriced and poised for a potential
As the stock market navigates through 2024, certain stocks are showing signs that they might not be the best holdings for your portfolio. Here are three “ticking time bombs” that investors might consider as stocks to sell, to preserve capital and improve one’s overall risk-adjusted returns. Some stocks on this list have high valuations that
The S&P 500 has continued to receive bullish forecasts from market analysts, including recent analyst upgrades. Some suggest the index could reach a target of 6,100 by the end of the year. The optimism is grounded in the index’s foundation of earnings growth, with additional support from favorable inflation news and expectations of a Federal
Airlines are seeing record numbers of travelers this year. All of which could provide a good deal of lift for currently undervalued airline stocks. Better yet, according to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), flight cancellations in the first half of the year were at 1.4%, the lowest in over a decade. “This year’s record-breaking air travel
