Most mega-cap stocks are household names. These are the corporations that have market caps above $250 billion and are the leaders within their industries.

Defense stocks have been on a tear in recent months, with many names hitting new all-time highs. The ongoing highly volatile geopolitical environment is primarily driving this surge. This includes the ongoing war in Ukraine and the increasingly unstable situation in the Middle East, particularly the conflict between Israel and Hamas, along with the involvement
Virtual reality (VR) stocks ride on the coattails of trends seen in the market, such as the metaverse, cloud gaming and immersive entertainment experiences. Virtual reality draws them together, and I think we have only just started to witness its full potential. The VR market, already valued at $22.81 billion in 2024, is projected to
Markets have yet to recover from the sudden dip they experienced at the start of the month, revealing how poor economic data can spook investors and impact stocks. The drop and rather slow recovery suggest investors remain cautious and may consider which stocks to sell now ahead of a potential trend resumption. The substantial rise
Initially a graphics card company, Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) has become a leader in AI chips under CEO Jensen Huang. Despite recent declines, Nvidia stock surged 116% in 2024 and 130% over the past 12 months. With a 629% increase in earnings per share but correspondingly high valuation multiples, there are questions about where this stock is
The anticipated interest rate cuts at the Federal Reserve’s September meeting have put several stocks to buy in the limelight. With interest rates above 5% for over a year and an economic slowdown, investors anticipate a potential rate cut at September’s meeting. This comes after Federal Reserve Chairman Jeremy Powell indicated that a potential rate
It’s good to have friends in high places. That is certainly what Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) thinks. The Saudi Arabian government’s sovereign wealth fund Public Investment Fund (PIF) just injected the luxury electric vehicle maker with another $1.5 billion in cash, which gives it enough money to survive through the fourth quarter of 2025. Yet, it’s
How many times did we warn investors about Intel (NASDAQ:INTC)? Sometimes, buying dips can sink ships. Today, we’ll be generous and give Intel stock a “D” grade instead of an outright “F,” since Intel’s chip-foundry business could be highly valuable someday. For the time being, though, there’s no need to sit on a toxic asset and
Citi (NYSE:C) price target cuts often get outsized attention, especially considering the recent $6.4 trillion global stock market meltdown. The bank expects global GDP growth to drop to 2.2% in 2024 and then increase to 2.8% in 2025 under its “Slow Then Grow” thesis for 2024; Citi predicts the U.S. will lead the worldwide resurgence
Palantir (NYSE:PLTR) stock is a company to watch as it heads into its earnings season for the third quarter. My recommendation for investors to hold this stock. Palantir stock continues to show strong revenue growth. I have concerns about the firm’s valuation and its ability to improve profitability. The third quarter will be an important
Electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) might be the least loved Magnificent Seven member. Oddly enough, Tesla is either a pioneer or a pariah, depending on whom you ask about it. The best way to sum up Tesla’s current situation is: “It’s complicated.” Therefore, if you intend to buy Tesla stock, only purchase a few shares and have
The tech sector has offered many opportunities to multiply money. Artificial intelligence (AI), e-commerce and online advertising are some of the tech avenues that have propelled corporations and indices to all-time highs. However, every sector is filled with bad apples that can hurt shareholders and leave them trailing the S&P 500. Some tech stocks look promising
Is there an artificial intelligence (AI) stock bubble that’s only starting to burst, or is the latest sell-off nothing more than a healthy, much-needed correction? That’s the big question on investors’ minds as they contemplate buying the dip in previously heated growth plays that are starting to show signs of bottoming out. Of course, only
The U.S. Commerce Department reported that retail sales in June remained unchanged, countering concerns about the economy entering a recession. The stability in retail sales –and, by extension, retail stocks — was primarily due to a balance between a decline in auto dealership receipts and robustness in other sectors, suggesting a resilient consumer base and
Like other electric vehicle stocks, Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN) has been pulling back over the past month. The electric van and truck maker’s latest quarterly earnings release has done little to drive a positive sentiment shift for Rivian stock. That’s not surprising. As seen from Rivian’s results and guidance, the auto sector’s current slump is likely
Everything looked like it was coming undone last week. As recession fears gripped the market, the S&P 500 tumbled 3% in a single day. The Nasdaq 100 lost more than 1,000 points at one point, its worst loss ever, before regaining some of the lost ground. Although the situation turned markedly better by Tuesday and
