Stocks to buy

The cannabis sector has been relatively quiet lately. With federal legalization in the U.S. likely still years away, many investors have turned their attention elsewhere, leaving cannabis stocks to collect dust. However, just because the hype around cannabis stocks has faded, doesn’t mean there aren’t still some strong buying opportunities in this space. In fact,

Biotech stocks, namely those involved with gene editing, have been explosive.  Just look at CRISPR Therapeutics (NASADQ:CRSP), for example. Since late October, CRSP rocketed from about $40 a share to about $90.18. All thanks to positive US FDA and European Commission rulings on CRISPR’s treatments for sickle cell, and transfusion-dependent beta-thalassemia.  Even shares of Beam Therapeutics (NASDAQ:BEAM) soared from about $17 to

The 0.7% month-over-month increase in Americans’ spending at “restaurants and bars” last month was very encouraging for restaurant stocks. The data suggests that Americans continue to prioritize eating out even nearly two years after the lockdowns were terminated. One factor behind the latter trend may be the large emphasis that millennials and Generation Z tend

Artificial intelligence (AI) stocks are a shining example of potential. They exist in the fast-paced world of finance. Here, data and insight are the driving forces behind the future. Today, we explore this possibility via AI stock forecasts. There is a particular emphasis on one of the most powerful AI models. This journey started with

Analyst upgrades consistently offer valuable insights, deftly guiding investors through market dynamics. 2024 unfolds a promising economic landscape, diverging from past apprehensions. Contrary to previous fears, the U.S. economy is poised for a staggering $7 trillion growth over the next decade. Moreover, this positive outlook is reinforced by widespread analyst upgrades across various sectors, reflecting

While the fear of missing out (FOMO) is a powerful emotion, sometimes the patient approach to stock prices to watch presents a better situation. I learned the hard way. In January of this year, I hastily bought call options in Biomea Fusion (NASDAQ:BMEA) based largely on short-squeeze speculation. I didn’t even bother to understand what

A retirement portfolio isn’t the place to bet on startups and penny stocks. Investing for your Golden Years means seeking out quality stocks that offer a combination of growth, income and safety. Instead of betting the farm on making a killing overnight, you’re better off taking the slow and steady approach. But don’t mistake consistency

Hydrogen is a volatile gas. When mishandled, hydrogen is flammable and can lead to deadly explosions. As an investment, hydrogen stocks have often proven similarly dangerous (metaphorically at least). Several leading pureplay hydrogen companies have seen their share prices implode over the past 24 months. Investors could be forgiven for overlooking the whole sector altogether.

You want speculative stocks with upside potential up to 3X returns? I’m going to give them to you. But you have to accept the risk. There’s (usually) no such thing as a free lunch and that especially applies on Wall Street. No one’s just going to give you stocks with upside potential to 200% or

Warren Buffett stock picks continue to include a secret stock. Speculation was high that Buffett’s mystery holding would be revealed when his company, Berkshire Hathaway’s (NYSE:BRK.A/NYSE:BRK.B) latest 13F regulatory filing was made public. But no such luck. The Oracle of Omaha, as Buffett is known, has continued to ask the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission

A few days ago, we discussed several stocks that could benefit from a Biden economic boom if he wins reelection in 2024. However, today I want to consider an alternative scenario – a triumph from former president Donald Trump. Given Trump’s resurgence in recent polls, I believe this outcome may be more probable than many

There are a few flying car stocks on the market today I believe could lead to substantial gains for investors. These companies are known for high growth potential as well as relatively low valuations for what investors get for their money. Although these companies are in the very early stages of development and are risky,

Investing in high-potential biotech stocks should catapult your portfolio to new heights. Picture this: a global biotech market valued at a whopping $1.55 trillion in 2023 is set to catapult to $3.08 trillion by 2030, with a compound annual growth rate of 14%. Beyond the numbers, the competitive fervor among biotechs adds an intriguing layer

Billionaire investor Bill Ackman became something of a household name a decade ago when he famously declared weight loss and nutrition supplement maker Herbalife (NYSE:HLF) a “pyramid scheme.” His Pershing Square Capital Management hedge fund took a massive $1 billion short position in the stock. He waged war on the company for five years before

While some investors prefer high-flying tech darlings, others seek “fallen angels,” or once-loved robust companies facing temporary challenges. With its shorter days and unpredictable weather, February can mirror the stock market’s volatility. Yet, for some beaten-down stocks, this season can serve as a fertile ground for potential growth. Not all stocks have participated in the

Some hidden-gem 5G stocks are currently being overlooked by investors and are primed to surge in value this year. These stocks belong to companies that are either directly involved in developing and deploying 5G technology or are set to benefit significantly from its widespread adoption. This includes major telecom operators, equipment manufacturers, and smaller firms

Budget semiconductor stocks are set for a boost with Bitcoin’s (BTC-USD) long-anticipated halving event scheduled to take place in April. The halving is a cyclical event in which the scarcity of Bitcoin is increased as the volume of cryptocurrency awarded to miners is halved. Many investors are expecting market-wide rallies that are similar in scale

What will it take to bring Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) back into the market’s favor? It would certainly build confidence if the company’s chief executive is also a shareholder. Even beyond that, the INTC stock outlook indicates improvement, albeit not perfection, so a small-sized allocation isn’t a terrible idea. We’ve caught wind of discussion about whether Intel is the

The Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL,NASDAQ: GOOG) stock outlook suggests the company has solidified itself as one of the market leaders in artificial intelligence. The company is making all the right moves, and AI is already making meaningful contributions to the company’s quarterly financial results. The dawn of artificial intelligence has sparked a new technological revolution. This is

If you’re going to invest, you need to buy the best stocks at the right time and know when you see a bargain price that will help you beat the market. For my money, that means looking for A-rated stocks to buy. A stock gets its well-deserved “A” rating in the Portfolio Grader when it’s
