So, take a close look at LI stock and decide if you’re ready to take a buy-and-hold position. Sometimes I give EV stocks a so-so assessment. When it

When pinpointing undervalued auto stocks, many investors’ minds race straight to the iconic giants of the industry. Yet, as electric vehicle (EV) makers charge into the arena, we’re reminded that every automaker, whether a legacy brand or an upstart, can offer genuine investment merits. Moreover, with a staggering 79.4 million units in global auto sales

Some of the most attractive opportunities are the top dividend kings, all of which have raised their payout for 50+ years. Even in times of economic disarray, inflation, booms, busts, rising interest rates, recessions, and crashes, they’ve still raised their dividends.

Earlier this year, I called out three stocks as potential short-squeeze opportunities. Among these picks, Carvana (NYSE:CVNA) and Upstart (NASDAQ:UPST) have delivered multi-bagger gains since. The third stock, Luminar Technologies (NASDAQ:LAZR), hasn’t been as impressive. However, it’s still up 7% since that piece. Will I be able to repeat these gains?

Fed Governor Michelle Bowman, a senior Federal Reserve official, recently warned of multiple additional rate hikes needed to address inflation. Bowman noted in Atlanta that inflation remains above the Fed’s 2% target due to a job market with more openings than available workers.

Recently, C3.ai (NYSE:AI) stock has pulled back. To some, this may look like an opportune time to “buy the dip” with AI stock. After all, couldn’t a renewal of enthusiasm for generative artificial intelligence stocks led to a rapid rebound? It’s possible, but keep in mind that such a turn of events is hardly a

Any investor wanting outsized returns should look at growth stocks. While value stocks are perfectly fine for a long-term portfolio, growth stocks are the ticket for investors with a shorter time horizon and looking for dynamic returns.
