We talk about stocks going “to the Moon” all the time. Sometimes, like with Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock, they do. But all stocks return to fundamental value. Those on the Nvidia rocket, like me, constantly face the question of when to get off. The answer, so far, has been not yet. Since the hype over AI
After coming off a strong year, Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) stock is still a screaming buy in 2024. Last year was the year of artificial intelligence, and this year will be no different.

The “Magnificent 7” stocks experienced a great rally in 2023. These tech giants were also the key reason why the S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite rose 43% and 24% last year, respectively.

Dividend Aristocrats are stocks that have been increasing dividends for the last 25 years. Inherently, these companies have deep stability and for that reason continue to be attractive. A lot has happened over that period: The.com bubble, the 2007 crash, and the pandemic are among the more prominent disruptions. Yet, these Dividend Aristocrats have continued
While investors should probably direct the majority of their market-earmarked funds toward slow-and-steady ideas – à la Warren Buffett – sometimes, we end up with gambling money. And in that case, speculative stocks to double your money might make sense. To be 100% clear, anytime investors venture into high-risk, high-reward stocks, there’s a reason for
Following a much-hyped introduction, space stocks have admittedly stunk up the field. Nevertheless, the underlying sector is only growing in relevance. Recently, Japan’s efforts to land a lunar rover on the moon reflect the heightened global competition in the space race. Fundamentally, this dynamic bodes well for the long haul. Some projections state that the
With electric vehicle sales disappointing against prior forecasts, it’s easy to question the narrative of lithium stocks. However, if you believe in the transformative potential of EVs – and there’s some good evidence for that – you might be attracted with the sector-wide de-risking.

Flying car stocks, now a critical sector to monitor, are evolving into a notable financial opportunity.
