Competition among electric vehicle manufacturers is never-ending, not only in the U.S. but worldwide. Some data points might lead investors to believe that China-based EV maker Nio (NYSE:NIO) is thriving amid the fierce competition. However, prospective NIO stock buyers need to be careful now as the recent news it’s all positive for Nio. Ultimately, there’s a lesson to be
In the dynamic world of technology, discerning investors are consistently looking for the next revolutionary trend. Currently, quantum computing stocks stand out as the frontier of tech innovation, given their critical role in reshaping sectors from finance to healthcare. Amid this tech evolution, the best quantum computing stocks are not just speculative plays but are
I recently saw an article in The New York Times about the rising costs of elder care. These reports of financial ruin have become all too common in the U.S. The same goes for Canada, where I live. Only the very wealthiest are growing old with dignity. The rest of us are left to cope
Warren Buffett is sitting on a stack of cash, leaving investors wondering where he’ll deploy his capital to next. Over the previous quarter, Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK-A, NYSE:BRK-B) sold $5 billion worth of stock, totaling $44 billion over the past four quarters. He’s now holding $157 billion in cash, collecting interest, and waiting for the right
Everyone’s definition of a must-buy stock is different. I remember writing about Church & Dwight (NYSE:CHD) in 2016 when it was on one heck of a heater, as they say in sports—up 9% year to date (YTD) through April, working on its 11th consecutive year of market gains. I suggested it was still a buy
Soaring from the pages of science fiction into reality, flying cars are igniting the skies of innovation. Moreover, amidst the choppiness in the stock market, the valuations of top flying car stocks have become more attractive, presenting a long-term opportunity for forward-thinking investors. Currently, a handful of trailblazing companies are steering the development of these
In a tech-driven era, the ascent of AI continues to reshape industries. Here are three top AI stocks poised to redefine market dominance by 2025. Each firm showcases distinctive approaches and groundbreaking strategies within cybersecurity, technological innovation, and semiconductor advancements. Fundamentally, it is signaling an imminent transformation in their respective sectors. The first one’s revolutionary
The earnings season started in full swing and hasn’t disappointed. But it’s almost coming to an end and this means it’s time to look forward to another impressive quarter. While not all companies managed to beat expectations and impress investors, there are a few which stood out. For investors who were waiting for the most
Recently, it’s become clear that nearly every Big Tech firm is working toward manufacturing their own AI chips. That’s why we’ve been worried about the world’s most dominant AI chipmaker, Nvidia (NVDA), for a few weeks now. But this past weekend – amidst the drama at OpenAI – we realized the true reason why investors
When looking at the broader innovation space, it’s the usual suspects that helped drive sentiment forward, which may provide an “air bubble” opportunity for under-the-radar tech stocks. Basically, with so much attention paid to a select few enterprises, investors can pivot toward the path less traveled. From a pure commons sense perspective, targeting hidden gem
Following in the footsteps of esteemed investing juggernauts, the ideal of chasing even the best global stocks should generally come second to targeting enterprises in the U.S. It’s going to ruffle some feathers but the harsh reality is that the U.S. represents the greatest economic power in the world. And it’s hard to believe that
Before starting the discussion on eco-friendly stocks, we’ve got to discuss the giant pink gorilla in the room. This sector stinks, badly. According to a recent report by The Globe and Mail, many investors doubt the pace of the broader green energy transition. Because of the ambiguities, many if not most market participants decided that
Penny stocks are usually small-cap stocks, and small-cap stocks typically tend to perform the best during the early stages of the business cycle when the economy is recovering and growing fairly rapidly. Multi-billionaire investor Ken Fisher has indicated that we are in the early stages of the business cycle, and I agree with him. I
Disney’s (NYSE:DIS) cost-cutting and a strong rebound in its International Parks business made its third-quarter results look decent. However, over the longer term, the profits of the company’s TV networks will probably sink sharply, and the firm still has not devised viable ways to offset those likely declines. Given those points, I believe that DIS
Talking about penny stocks with a 12-month return potential of 100% seems too conservative. In the euphoric rally of 2021, some of the hot penny stocks skyrocketed by 100% in a matter of days. It’s better to have toned-down expectations than to tend toward an unrealistic zone in challenging macroeconomic conditions. It’s also important to
Recession-resistant stocks are crucial for maintaining stable, long-term portfolio returns. Economic cycles, marked by expansions and contractions, influence market performance. Diversifying across multiple assets is key to navigating emerging risks. Indeed, while specific sectors like consumer staples, healthcare, and utilities are considered recession-proof, success is not guaranteed by simply choosing companies within these sectors. However,
Archer Aviation (NYSE:ACHR) has seen a remarkable 230% year-to-date surge in its stock. Indeed, ACHR stock is among the top growth stocks on many investors’ radar, with a strong business development focus and intriguing product launches. Ending Q3 2023 with a $600 million liquidity buffer, Archer is well-positioned for commercialization in 2025. The company is expanding
Despite being unprofitable, C3.ai (NYSE:AI) stock has been on an absolute tear this year. There are few true pure-play options for investors looking to ride the wave of momentum higher in the artificial intelligence space. Accordingly, as a company focused on providing enterprise AI solutions, AI stock continues to be among the top choices for
In prior coverage of QuantumScape (NYSE:QS), I have laid out a cut-and-dry bear case for the EV battery developer’s shares. QS stock is not worth the risk due to uncertainty in executing its business plan, high cash burn, shareholder dilution, and competition from other battery developers. That said, I agree that there is validity to
Wall Street analysts have a bullish view on PayPal (NASDAQ:PYPL) stock right now, with 48 sell-side analysts covering it, according to the Wall Street Journal. Among them 30 rate it either “Buy” or the equivalent to buy (“Overweight”), 17 out of the remaining 18 rate shares a “Hold,” with one sole analyst assigning a “Sell”
