Last month, I declared Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) stock a must-own artificial intelligence chip play. Now, I’m kicking it up a notch. AMD deserves to be the eighth member of the “Magnificent Seven” group of famous U.S. technology firms. Maybe it’s controversial to say this, but AMD deserves to be on the Mount Rushmore of

Sometimes, even the most promising growth stories can have unfortunate endings. China-based electric vehicle manufacturer Nio (NYSE:NIO) has come a long way during the past several years. Yet, Nio’s recent financial and operational data don’t support a long position in NIO stock right now. Plus, Nio is embarking on a business venture that could turn out
In May, Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) briefly reached a $1 trillion market value, propelled by its success in the AI sector, with its stock tripling in less than eight months thanks to the growing interest in generative AI. Given the stock’s impressive momentum, many are now considering the potential from here. If a stock like Nvidia can
Plenty have thrown in the towel with positions in Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID), but many analysts and investors remain optimistic about the future prospects of LCID stock. While others have headed for the exits, they’ve held on, continuing to argue the consistently-questionable bull case for the struggling electric vehicle maker’s shares. In fact, just recently, the
When it comes to identifying the pulse of contemporary stock market trends, it’s tough to overlook the burgeoning influence of Reddit. Investing subreddits in particular have steered notable stock shifts and even reshaped market narratives. Among the stocks creating a buzz, AI stocks have taken center stage this year, especially with stalwarts such as Nvidia
Artificial intelligence took center stage in late 2022 with the release of ChatGPT and similar apps, sparking a surge in AI-related stocks. AI ETFs have outperformed the Standards and Practices (S&P) 500 this year, with RBOT up 24% while SPY was up 18% by mid-year. Investors seek exposure to this growing sector. Assessing an AI
Weight-loss drugs are taking the U.S. by storm. JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:JPM) is forecasting that the market for weight-loss medications could reach $100 billion in annual sales. The new class of drugs, known as “incretins,” has been shown in clinical trials to suppress appetite and reduce food intake. This, in turn, leads to dramatic weight loss
Where will all of the electric vehicle (EV) batteries go when they die? Fortunately, most won’t end up in landfills. Instead, according to Car and Driver, they’re often sent to firms that break down the battery packs into their different materials. That includes wires, plastics, and circuitry, for example. The cells are also crushed to
Some of the best oil stocks have seen significant price action in the last few years. This has been in sync with the volatility in crude oil since the pandemic. From historic lows during the pandemic, crude oil surged well above $100 per barrel. However, as growth concerns increased on the back of tightening monetary
Buying stocks on weakness is a natural extension of the “buy low, sell high” philosophy at the heart of successful investing. That’s because one of the easiest ways to buy low and sell high is to purchase stocks that unjustly and/or excessively dropped. Such declines happen often, primarily because the Street tends to overly focus
In the global push for clean energy, it seems increasingly likely that hydrogen will play a big role. Last year, more than 20 countries agreed to “boost output of low-emission hydrogen to at least 90 million tonnes a year by 2030” from current levels of one million tonnes annually. That is an indicator of the
It’s been a tough few years for the bears. It feels like decades ago, but 2019’s flash crash had doomsayers predicting another 2008-style financial crisis. Likewise, the pandemic’s early days seemed like an economic disaster – until it wasn’t, as monetary policy pushed stocks to record highs. Now many of them have become some of
Some penny stocks go on to deliver huge returns for their owners. Most, however, do not. After all, companies usually end up in penny stock territory because something dramatic has gone wrong with their business model. At times, these issues can be resolved. In others, however, little chance of a revival exists due to a
Generally, onlookers dismiss large-cap stocks to buy as the arena for ultra-conservative investors; you know, the type that mimics Warren Buffett’s every move. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. However, if you want a little spice in your portfolio, you can still find it among the industry stalwarts. At first, the concept of high-potential large-cap
As the digital era transforms, fifth-generation (5G) wireless technology emerges as the linchpin of tomorrow’s connectivity. That represents a colossal shift. It promises to revolutionize sectors such as machine learning, cloud computing, and the Internet of Things (IoT). The clamor for 5G is clear, particularly in sectors such as autonomous driving and the burgeoning metaverse.
While the small-capitalization sector provides ample opportunities to find diamonds in the rough, astute investors can occasionally find undervalued large-cap stocks. It sounds completely counterintuitive. Why would a giant publicly traded corporation be undervalued? All I can say is, strange things can happen. Consider the movie Moneyball, where the protagonists of the film helped drive
In Hollywood, there’s no such thing as bad publicity. And this adage just might apply to these buzzworthy stocks. For various reasons, the below enterprises have caught the attention of the media landscape. And it’s possible that the spotlight could help drive these names even higher. To identify the most talked about stocks, I used
While investors typically acquire dividend stocks because of their passive income, certain enterprises also bring compelling growth opportunities. Put another way, the companies on this list allow you to have your cake and eat it, too. One of the top attributes of dividend stocks for capital gains is that you’re getting a multi-pronged deal. First,
The saying “it takes money to make money” isn’t always correct when it comes to investing. Small amounts of money invested over time can add up to a lifetime of riches. Even if you only have $500 to invest you can still find stocks to buy. The stock market’s history proves there are few better
Like a scene out of The Jetsons, we may soon see cars taking to the skies and plenty of headline news on flying car stocks. And if you want, you can actually pre-order a flying car from Alef Aeronautics for about $299,999. Not only is it a clean energy vehicle, but it’s also expected to
