While enterprises focused on expanding the top line tend to cater to a short-and-sweet methodology, compelling long-term growth stocks to buy and hold may reward speculators that are not necessarily in a big hurry.

The “Magnificent 7” stocks, or Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META), Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL), Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT), Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA), and Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) have had a great year so far.

Bitcoin (BTC-USD) prices have rocketed past the $40,000 threshold and shares of several companies with ties to the world’s most valuable cryptocurrency are rallying too.

With the S&P 500 index stunningly back to its winning ways, it may be time to get on the bandwagon but with bargain stocks with potential. In other words, these enterprises presently lag the benchmark on a year-to-date basis. However, they could offer better bang for the buck over the intermediate to long term. First,
Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s recent comments signal a lenient approach, making it highly unlikely for interest-rate hikes to occur soon, even in the face of a potentially heating economy.

Archer Aviation (NYSE:ACHR) surged 225% this year. The company recently inked an MOU with Air Chateau, expecting up to 100 Midnight aircraft purchases. Air Chateau paid a $1 million pre-delivery fee, with the potential for an additional $4 million upon a formal agreement. This will have significant implications for ACHR stock. Indeed, the surge in
While Disney (NYSE:DIS) consumers may perceive the company operating as usual, shareholders understand the challenges beneath the surface. There’s plenty to be concerned about from industry strikes to streaming hurdles.

Like other “Magnificent Seven” stocks, Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) shares rallied during November. During the month, AAPL stock rose from $171 to around $190 per share, representing around an 11% increase in the span of a few weeks.

Over the past week, it has appeared QuantumScape (NYSE:QS) shares could end 2023 on a high note. Despite a lack of fresh news, QS stock has climbed from $5.50 to just under $7 per share since late last month.

In a high-interest-rate environment, investors need to be selective when it comes to financial stocks. There are many choices out there, and PayPal (NASDAQ:PYPL) stock simply isn’t the best one.

It was always a matter of time before Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock broke through the trillion-dollar threshold. It was simply when, not if.

Folks who invested in China-based electric vehicle manufacturer Nio (NYSE:NIO) had a great summer this year. Then, the stock had a terrible fall in both senses of the word. Some investors may consider buying NIO stock, but we give it a “D” grade. The risks outweigh the potential rewards as Nio focuses on a specific EV battery
After a year of being hyped as the ultimate AI winner, Palantir (NASDAQ:PLTR) stock is up over 200%, rising from $7 in January to a little more than $18 today. I have long been skeptical of Palantir. Its claims have long been well ahead of its financials. PLTR stock has a market cap of over
