What comes after a disappointing quarter – a spectacular comeback, or more disappointment? That’s the billion-dollar question that Snap’s (NYSE:SNAP) shareholders are asking. Snap will soon face a crucial moment, so keep your position in Snap stock small. You don’t have to sell all your Snap shares. Be ready for unexpected adventures. I believe Snap

Visa (NYSE:V) and Mastercard (NYSE:MA) just reached what many are calling a landmark agreement. In response to a class-action lawsuit, the two payments processors agreed to lower the swipe fees they charge merchants for credit card transactions and they’ll limit the charges for five years. The lower fees will save nearly $30 billion over the
The 2024 presidential election is shaping up to be just as exciting and contentious the 2020 contest. That’s because it looks to be a rematch between President Biden and former President Trump. There’s a wildcard thrown in this time with Robert Kennedy Jr. running an independent campaign that could pull voters from both sides. The
With strong market performance in recent periods, finding stocks priced at a discount can be challenging. However, examining stocks at 52-week lows may identify equities valued below their potential. While exercising caution is prudent, given valid underperformance reasons exist, comparing current metrics to historical peaks could reveal bargain stocks at 52-week lows. Understanding the drivers
The U.S. housing market looks to be on shaky ground. Lofty mortgage rates have set a high bar for first-time buyers to enter the housing market, with many consumers finding it difficult to qualify for a mortgage as rates are currently near 7%. At the same time, a lack of housing supply across America has
In February, JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:JPM) CEO Jamie Dimon unloaded $150 million of his company’s stock – his first-ever sale. Shares of the bank had risen 70% since 2022, and valuations were beginning to look rich. He’s not the only one who seems worried. Last month, Morningstar analyst Sarah Hansen noted that banks no longer traded
Artificial intelligence and data centers go hand-in-hand these days. As companies generate more data and rely on complex algorithms, they need robust infrastructure to store and process all that information efficiently. However, pure-play data center stocks with AI exposure are tricky to find. The data center industry has seen tremendous consolidation lately. Many promising players
Many high-growth companies have been trading sideways for months or even years at depressed valuations. But as the old adage goes, the stock market is a weighing machine in the long-run. And right now, I see a prime opportunity to load up on many high-quality stocks trading at bargain-basement prices before they inevitably soar. With
If you’re looking for investments that could generate more-than-satisfactory total returns, consider undervalued dividend stocks. With these types of stocks, you may have the potential to get the best of both worlds. First, there are numerous undervalued stocks that sport above-average dividend yields. These payouts can provide a steady baseline of positive returns. Second, besides
There are crowded trades, and then there are really crowded trades. The sentiment surrounding Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) has been ultra-bullish for a year and a half now. This story could have a very unhappy ending, so now’s not the time to be greedy with AMD stock. Note that I didn’t say AMD is a bad
The stock market seems to win even when it loses. Even as a strong jobs market report Friday hints that interest rate cuts are not coming in the next few months, both the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 gained several hundred points or about 1%. After last year’s big comeback, many expected
If you’re looking for upside potential, you’ve come to the right place with tech stocks to buy. And if you’re looking for significant returns, you should consider the innovation sector’s discount bin. I don’t consider the last phrase to be a pejorative term. Rather, I look at it as receiving a 50% off coupon for
The artificial intelligence (AI) industry has captivated investors. Corporations have been rushing to incorporate the technology into their operations to increase efficiency and revenue. AI was the big buzzword of 2023, and that momentum has carried over into 2024. Many of the top AI stocks have continued to rack up gains. The sector is attracting
In December 2021, the World Economic Forum reported on an investigation regarding the reasons for the decline in long-term investing. Some key reasons included the emergence of high-frequency machine trading, low fees & commissions, focus on short-term results and shorter company lifespans. It seems to be an era of stock trades rather than value investing.
Many highly successful stock pickers, including Warren Buffett, often buy stocks on weakness. That’s largely because companies that are great or are on their way to greatness often sink for reasons that are not at all justified. For example, on Feb. 21, Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ:SMCI) dropped to as low as $817.08 per share. Many
Last week I put a spotlight on gold mining company Agnico Eagle Mines (NYSE:AEM). Savvy investors should also consider cashing in on the red-hot rally in silver now. Like gold, silver prices are rising on inflation and geopolitical concerns. I know there’s a ton of hardcore silver bugs out there who have been waiting patiently
It’s hard to believe we’re already a quarter of the way through 2024. So far, it’s been a solid year for equities, but the first week in April was the worst performance since October 2023. You’ve probably heard a lot of conversation about this being a “stock picker’s market.” That simply means you may have
This article examines some of the most shorted financial stocks on the market. More specifically, we’re looking at financial stocks short sellers are targeting that you may want to sell before it’s too late. The uncertain economic environment warrants analyzing financial stocks sold short by market participants, as a divergence is likely to occur. Significant
The technology sector is generally responsible for innovation and growth. Thus, it’s no surprise that it often produces highly valued stocks. Companies like Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) and Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) are great examples of the sector. Yet, there are plenty of underestimated tech stocks poised for a breakout. Once these bargain stocks break out they tend to
Most investors probably think of Walmart (NYSE:WMT) as a famous big-box retail store chain. Yet, I encourage you to think of Walmart differently in 2024. You can buy Walmart stock because you like to buy defensive names and collect dividends, but don’t overlook the company’s artificial intelligence connections. That’s right: I’m proposing that WMT stock
