The future of the U.S. economy looks promising. Recent data indicates a significant increase in productivity, reminiscent of the economic boom experienced in the mid-1990s. Technology advances and the widespread adoption of hybrid work models contribute to this positive trend. If sustained, this surge in productivity could lead to higher wages, improved company profitability and
Though small-cap stocks tend to outperform large-caps as a collective investment class, that truism hides a key risk when investing in small-cap stocks. There’s little barrier to entry, practically speaking, to public listing (and the few barriers are easily avoided, as in the case of SPAC mergers). This means that companies with limited prospects or

Those who can find bullish sleeper stocks among shares plagued by bearish sentiment stand to make a lot of money. Two of the stocks discussed below are plagued by bullish sentiment. Each of those
Social media stocks can come and go just as fast as the memes their platforms support.

While the rest of the stock market endured a bear mauling in 2022, energy sectors became the best-performing asset class that year. My how things have changed. Today, oil prices are hovering around $80 a barrel and energy producers are marking down their profits. At the same time, concerns about slumping demand and the global
With stocks up 200%, you face a dilemma. While you don’t want to fight momentum, you also don’t want to buy into excessive exuberance and jump into a stock at its top, forced to hold until break-even or sell for a loss down the road. These three companies represent solid picks among the handful of
Just a year ago, most people were skeptical about AI. It seemed the general consensus was that this emerging technology was just the latest overhyped fad. Many figured its popularity would pass with time and prove to have little real-world, lasting value. So much for that. According to its latest earnings, Nvidia (NVDA) – the
Electric vehicle (EV) stocks took a hit in Q4 of 2023 as the long-term outlook for EV demand decreased. Many stocks that surged over the past three years now face price corrections as consumer values change. Despite the environmental benefits of EVs, most consumers lack access to robust charging networks that would make owning an
The battles within the semiconductor sector are always fierce. Even now, when the demand for AI chips is extremely high, multiple firms are competing to become the top rival to Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA), and NVDA is fighting to remain the undisputed champion in the space. Similarly, in autos, smartphones, servers, and PCs, competition within the sector
The stock market has seen a remarkable surge in recent months, climbing 21% since the end of October. Rallies as strong as this one tend to yield several stock winners, which in this case are primarily GenAI-focused companies. Some analysts believe this rally could extend through 2024, contingent on several key factors. One of the key
Once people are done fawning over generative AI, investors might think, “what will be the next big thing?” The field of quantum computing may be just that.

Microsoft’s (NASDAQ:MSFT) recent investment in OpenAI has positioned the company as a top AI-related stock to buy, with plenty of near-term momentum. The company has adopted a well-rounded focus on its core business segments, with software and cloud operations providing the sort of cash flow to fund various high-growth endeavors.

As far as recent earnings are concerned, Q4 2023 looked impressive for the advertising giant Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL). The company reported strong 13% revenue growth, with advertising revenues expected to climb further in 2024, driven by events like the Olympics and Elections.

As you may recall from my past coverage of Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN), I’ve been bearish about this early-stage electric vehicle stock. However, following the EV maker’s latest quarterly earnings release, my RIVN stock analysis has become even more downbeat. Why? Admittedly, Rivian remains in a much better position than other high-profile EV upstarts. For instance,
Since the late 1970s, when the former options trader and arbitrageur moved into activist investing (then called “corporate raiding”), Carl Icahn has built a multi-billion dollar fortune investing in (and pushing for profitable changes at) undervalued companies.
