Drones have been becoming more and more useful these days, though perhaps the most world-altering use case recently has been in warfare. Even if you don’t keep up with the news, it is very likely that you have heard of drones multiple times in just the past year alone.

I think it is a good idea to sit on these discounted dividend stocks and let them compound rather than putting your money into some of the more overvalued

The U.S. stock market has been quite volatile this year. For certain sectors including AI stocks and other high-growth industries, it has been quite a stellar few months. However, for other sectors, including the likes of EV and lithium stocks, it has been anything but. The thing is, companies operating in these sectors have benefited

Last week, I read something online about the Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (NYSEARCA:SCHD). It’s considered to be one of the better U.S.-listed dividend equity ETFs. It got me wondering about high-yield dividend stocks.  I’m not sure if I’ll find dividend stocks  in SCHD’s portfolio that yield over 7%. The ETF’s 3o-day SEC yield is

Stock trading influencer Roaring Kitty — real name Keith Gill — made a sudden return on social media after a three-year silence. Gill dropped from social media in the aftermath of 2021’s GameStop (NYSE:GME) event, where institutional investors who shorted GME suffered major losses after retail investors bought it in droves. GME and other stocks

Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) has not exactly gone “to the moon,” but Oracle stock has certainly racked up some solid gains since the start of the year.

It’s not an easy time for U.S.-based electric vehicle manufacturers like Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN). Government policy could boost U.S. demand for clean-energy vehicles.

The “magnificent seven” tech titans contributed $182 billion in market value, led by Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) with $65 billion, to boost the Nasdaq Composite by 1% to a record high on Friday, but loading up on growth stocks is technical due to rising costs, global political instability, and the 2024 presidential contest are all concerns.
