That’s because one of the easiest ways to buy low and sell high is to purchase stocks that unjustly and/or excessively dropped. Such declines happen often, primarily because the Street tends to overly focus
In the global push for clean energy, it seems increasingly likely that hydrogen will play a big role. Last year, more than 20 countries agreed to “boost output of low-emission hydrogen to at least 90 million tonnes a year by 2030” from current levels of one million tonnes annually. That is an indicator of the
It’s been a tough few years for the bears. It feels like decades ago, but 2019’s flash crash had doomsayers predicting another 2008-style financial crisis. Likewise, the pandemic’s early days seemed like an economic disaster – until it wasn’t, as monetary policy pushed stocks to record highs. Now many of them have become some of
Some penny stocks go on to deliver huge returns for their owners. Most, however, do not. After all, companies usually end up in penny stock territory because something dramatic has gone wrong with their business model. At times, these issues can be resolved.

Generally, onlookers dismiss large-cap stocks to buy as the arena for ultra-conservative investors; you know, the type that mimics Warren Buffett’s every move. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. However, if you want a little spice in your portfolio, you can still find it among the industry stalwarts. At first, the concept of high-potential large-cap
As the digital era transforms, fifth-generation (5G) wireless technology emerges as the linchpin of tomorrow’s connectivity. That represents a colossal shift. It promises to revolutionize sectors such as machine learning, cloud computing, and the Internet of Things (IoT).

While the small-capitalization sector provides ample opportunities to find diamonds in the rough, astute investors can occasionally find undervalued large-cap stocks. It sounds completely counterintuitive. Why would a giant publicly traded corporation be undervalued? All I can say is, strange things can happen. Consider the movie Moneyball, where the protagonists of the film helped drive
In Hollywood, there’s no such thing as bad publicity. And this adage just might apply to these buzzworthy stocks. For various reasons, the below enterprises have caught the attention of the media landscape. And it’s possible that the spotlight could help drive these names even higher. To identify the most talked about stocks, I used
While investors typically acquire dividend stocks because of their passive income, certain enterprises also bring compelling growth opportunities. Put another way, the companies on this list allow you to have your cake and eat it, too. One of the top attributes of dividend stocks for capital gains is that you’re getting a multi-pronged deal.

The saying “it takes money to make money” isn’t always correct when it comes to investing. Small amounts of money invested over time can add up to a lifetime of riches. Even if you only have $500 to invest you can still find stocks to buy. The stock market’s history proves there are few better
Like a scene out of The Jetsons, we may soon see cars taking to the skies and plenty of headline news on flying car stocks. And if you want, you can actually pre-order a flying car from Alef Aeronautics for about $299,999. Not only is it a clean energy vehicle, but it’s also expected to
Artificial intelligence has been around for a while, but tools like ChatGPT have brought this innovative technology into the spotlight. A growing number of companies want to create their own AI-powered tools. When many companies and consumers rush toward a technological innovation, it presents an opportunity for investors.

In early August, I wrote about how shares of T2 Biosciences (NASDAQ:TTOO) could rise to $1 or more in a short-term frenzy. Meme investors had singled out the stock, and heavy options trading meant shares were at risk of getting squeezed. Retail investors delivered. Within two weeks, TTOO’s stock had risen from 30 cents to
It’s difficult to underestimate the growing importance of microchips and semiconductors. The consulting firm McKinsey & Co. released a report in April proclaiming we’re currently living in the “semiconductor decade.” Most forecasts predict a $1 trillion industry by 2030. The explosion of both artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud computing has ratcheted up demand for microchips
Countries across the globe are striving to have millions of electric vehicles on the road by the end of this decade.

Last week, yields on short-dated U.S. Treasuries quietly climbed to their highest point in almost 25 years. The effects of that rise, however, have been anything but silent. The average new mortgage rate now sits well over 7%; a home loan that would have cost $2,000 per month in 2021 would now set a new
