Beware of falling for value traps! In today’s challenging market environment, some stocks may look enticingly cheap on the surface. But if you peer a little deeper, you’ll realize many of these companies are just barely staying afloat, waiting out their last days or hoping for a miracle turnaround. While many startups stand little chance

I recently authored a few penny stock articles for InvestorPlace after discovering numerous overlooked investment opportunities. However, my past research was deep value-oriented, leading me to author another piece on growth penny stocks. This article focuses on growth-orientated penny stocks, with a particular emphasis on disruptive companies. I ensured my picks possess portfolio diversification benefits
Dig deep enough and find a story hot enough, and you can uncover potential stock winners up 1,000%. Look at Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD), for example. When I first found AMD, it was trading around $10 a share, severely beaten-down and undervalued. Today, thanks to the artificial intelligence boom, it’s one of the most talked about tech
There are some fantastic top retail stocks to buy for March this year. Despite the real threats it faces from e-commerce and social shopping, nothing can quite replace the retail experience. Thus, big box retail stores continue to stay in demand, especially for products that can’t so easily be shopped online. That would include itens
I often note that the ongoing downturn in the EV market could present a strong buying opportunity for aggressive investors. However, that sentiment doesn’t apply to all EV stocks. Not all EV companies are created equal, and some huge discrepancies make certain EV stocks worth steering clear of. The only position you’d want in these
What can you do when a “Magnificent Seven” company briefly falls out of favor? In the case of Google and YouTube parent company, Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL), the right response may be to buy and/or hold some GOOG stock shares. After all, a misstep doesn’t mean it’s the end of the road for Google and Alphabet. As we’ll
As the election year heats up, the search for 10X stocks for a Biden win intensifies amidst the closely contested race between Joe Biden and Donald Trump. The current political climate injects a level of unpredictability into the markets, which significantly complicates capitalizing on trends and making investment choices. If the Democrats secure another term,
In the stock markets, fortunes rise and fall on the tide of hype and advancements, with the tech sector impacted the most. As the world is in the middle of a decade, the stage is set for the listed tech titans to emerge as veritable champions. They are reshaping entire industries and verticals and leading
Unless you are very wealthy or an institutional investor, the world of hedge funds is closed to the average investor; thus, it’s a good idea to look at the stocks hedge funds are buying. That’s not necessarily a bad thing because these funds operate on a 2-and-20 fee structure. They skim 2% off the top
When looking for tattered stocks to buy for gains, I often cover under-the-radar stocks. However, sometimes the best deals are hiding in plain sight – you just have to be willing to take a contrarian view when others are fearful. We saw this scenario play out in mid-2022. Many investors clung onto expensive defensive stocks,
Analysts are optimistic about the U.S. economy, expecting a 2% GDP expansion this year due to strong growth in late 2023 and a resilient labor market in January. The positive outlook, driven by robust consumer spending and minimal signs of a private sector slowdown, suggests a delay in Federal Reserve interest rate cuts until later
Li Auto (NASDAQ:LI) has become the first electric vehicle (EV) maker in China to turn a profit, sending its stock price higher in recent weeks. This will undoubtedly have LI stock investors feeling bullish. LI stock is up nearly 10% year to date, outpacing nearly every other EV maker in China or the rest of
The semiconductor industry is flourishing, making investors eager to discover the top semiconductor stocks to buy. Semiconductor stocks provide a unique potential to generate outsize returns, given the importance of advanced semiconductor chips. They are needed to power data centers, renewable energy, gaming, smartphones and advanced artificial intelligence applications. These companies are at the heart
As I talk about the penny stocks for the next decade, the following point is worth mentioning. In the 1950s, the holding period of stocks was around eight years. There has been a phenomenal change over the decades with the average holding period as of June 2020 declining to 5.5 months. One factor behind this
I recently pointed out that today’s stock market is too good for investors to waste time with poorly rated stocks. A bull market (and that’s what we have right now) is the ideal time to jump on the train and capitalize with the best A-rated stocks to buy. While electric vehicles are trailing the pack,
In the world of China-based EV producers, Nio (NYSE:NIO) remains a top option many growth investors continue to pay close attention to. Unfortunately, NIO stock has continued to trade in a rather bearish fashion, now hovering just above its 52-week lows. Of course, the overall EV sector has been hit by growth concerns, as competitive
As of this writing, Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock has broken through the latest price level milestone: $900 per share. It may reach $1000. Concerns about a potential stock bubble grow, as shares soar. Despite the company’s success in AI chip demand and profitability, doubts about its sustainability arise. Yet while some sort of price correction is
Fintech companies are spearheading a revolutionary shift in their niche, employing advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence to redefine security and efficiency. Businesses in the fintech space are becoming the go-to over traditional banking methods, with their innovative approaches to investing, borrowing, saving, and trading. This is the backdrop for this article on the top
If there’s one thing I’ve learned about retail do-it-yourself investors, they love to hear about Wall Street whispers. These are upgrades or new coverage of stocks by analysts with a buy rating. Nothing moves the markets quite like the prognostications of sell-side analysts. The challenge in tracking analysts’ moves is that they are human, which
Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) has pulled back slightly since January, but at around $45.29 per share today, INTC stock remains at price levels well above its 52-week low ($25.97 per share). It’s not surprising that the chip maker’s shares have held onto the lion’s share of these recent gains. The market remains somewhat bullish about Intel’s AI
