Stocks to buy

It’s not all about chasing the red-hot AI trade. Some value investors want solid dividend payouts that have the means to grow at a steady and relatively predictable rate over time. Undoubtedly, momentum investing isn’t going to be for everyone. And though there will be many winners to the artificial intelligence (AI) boom, including those

Sports betting is a huge, rapidly growing business in the U.S. According to Statista, the revenue of the U.S. online sports betting market reached about $19 billion in 2023, up from roughly $15 billion in 2022. And in 2026, the sector’s sales are expected to surge to nearly $40 billion. Moreover, between 2024 and 2029,

The buying of tech stocks for long-term growth has essentially spearheaded the stock market over the past 20 years. In the past year or so, we’ve seen the AI-driven boom send the stock market soaring to unprecedented heights. However, the excitement isn’t just about the AI revolution but the tech industry’s broader, enduring strengths. For

Last week, Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) briefly eclipsed Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) as the world’s most valuable company. The AI chip maker is now worth $3.3 trillion… or roughly the combined value of every residential property in the state of Florida. Shares trade for 50 times forward earnings. That’s caused expected hand-wringing on Wall Street. “We’re not necessarily at

The video game stocks haven’t exactly been on a hot run of late. Undoubtedly, discretionary spending isn’t in the greatest spot these days, with inflation still a huge concern for many. Still, I do see value in some of the sold-off video game plays, even as most others look to dismiss them as dead money.

Analysts on Wall Street continue to pound the table on certain turnaround stocks likely to move higher through the year’s second half. With the quarter closing, analysts up and down the street are busy revising their forecasts and ratings on stocks to determine the securities likely to shine through summer into autumn. While not an

Whatever public perception of nuclear energy may be, Bill Gates has decided it’s a worthy pursuit for his newly formed TerraPower. The former tech billionaire turned philanthropist has been aggressively searching for ways to improve the world in the ways he deems fit. From investing in farming to vaccine development, Gates has a penchant for

If you are an investor like me, you’d agree that investing is a long-term game. Identifying solid companies and holding on to those stocks for the long term can not only generate capital gains, but some stocks also help earn more money through dividend income. Whether you are investing for retirement, want to leave a legacy, or hope to

Keeping track of your portfolio ups and down is hard. Being on top of all the news for each stock, and analyzing its stock price targets and other data, complicates it, particularly if you have a well-diversified portfolio. While you should take stock of your stocks at least once a quarter to make sure they

Dividend stocks are regaining popularity in investment portfolios, a shift prompted by recent years of higher interest rates favoring fixed-income options over dividend yields. However, as investors return to dividend stocks, the criteria for evaluating these investments have evolved—mirroring broader shifts in investment standards. Today’s investors prioritize solid financial fundamentals, a stark contrast to the

If you are looking for stocks with the highest yields, look no further! First, I would make it clear that the stocks in this list are not necessarily the ones with the “highest yields.” For example, if you screen for dividend stocks with only the yield in mind, you will find lots of stocks with

Morningstar.com recently discussed how GE Aerospace (NYSE:GE) stock has skyrocketed over the past 12 months, gaining 86%, with more than half the gains in 2024. Apparently momentum plays like GE have become the stocks to buy entering the second half of the year.  It’s hard to believe that GE’s become a momentum stock after lying

To achieve high returns from the subsequent changes in the market, sharp investors are closely monitoring which top stocks to buy before interest rate cuts as the Federal Reserve considers reducing interest rates.

The trade in technology stocks is growing volatile. The shares of microchip and semiconductor companies, which had led the market higher in this year’s first half, are selling off as we near the end of June. At the same time, several other well-known technology stocks are in the red this year. Whether due to disappointing

Now at the year’s midpoint, some investors may be inclined to address the month-end’s volatility in the tech scene. They may see it as an opportunity to take some profits off the table of their biggest first-half winner. Specifically, recent unpredictability hitting the semiconductor names may be a cause of concern for some. For others,

OpenAI has already changed the tech industry in big ways. Indeed, this technology has even started to impact blue-collar sectors after ChatGPT came out. That said, it has now been more than a year and a half since ChatGPT’s release. And while there have been better and better AI chatbots being released, you’d be forgiven for thinking that the AI magic

The energy sector had an underwhelming month of June. The ongoing market rally, driven by the excitement surrounding artificial intelligence, has propelled tech stocks to new heights. But it has also shifted investor attention away from many high-quality energy stocks now trading at a discount. That said, investors shouldn’t underestimate the potential of energy stocks.

Investing in growth stocks under $10 could prove incredibly lucrative over the long term. However, with mega-cap stocks dominating the market, it’s easy to overlook penny stocks that could become giants in the future. Remember, today’s stock market bellwethers began as humble, low-priced stocks. Taking a page from Warren Buffett’s early playbook, there’s a gold

As we look toward the future, artificial intelligence stands out as a critical driver of innovation and economic growth. AI’s potential to revolutionize industries is immense. It’s not just about automation or efficiency; AI promises to unlock new frontiers of creativity and intelligence that we’re only beginning to explore. AI stocks represent a compelling opportunity

With the equities space continuing to enjoy its blistering recovery from the doldrums of the Covid-19 crisis, fewer and fewer ideas exist that are considered genuine discounts. Nowadays, several of the desirable market ideas just seem overpriced. However, if you look around, there are still some promising enterprises that make up the ranks of oversold
