Amid the search for growth in the EV sector, there are plenty of angles investors are focusing in on. Whether it’s renewable energy to power these vehicles, battery companies supplying the technology used in EVs, or the electric vehicle manufacturers themselves, there are plenty of ways to play this space. Personally, I think battery suppliers

Representing some of the biggest names across various industries, the companies listed in the Dow Jones usually facilitate a great starting point for newbie investors. Featuring established track records, Dow stocks typically deliver the goods. And if they don’t, they risk getting the boot. However, the circumstances of the post-pandemic new normal opens doors for contrarian

So far this year, broad markets have declined thanks to high inflation and an uncertain economic outlook. Unfortunately, the situation is unlikely to change soon. In addition, the Federal Reserve continues to be hawkish. JP Morgan Chase (NYSE:JPM) found that between early Jan. and Oct. 18, retail investor portfolios in the U.S. were down 44%.

After a more than three-fold run higher between late 2020 and mid-2022, the market has cooled on Livent (NYSE:LTHM) stock. Shares in this leading provider of lithium compounds has traded sideways lately.

Chinese stocks have been beaten down in recent months. However, the broad group of China-based U.S.-listed stocks has taken another turn downward, reacting poorly to the recently-completed National Chinese Party Congress. Held from Oct. 16 to Oct. 22, 2022, the Party Congress saw many new President Xi Jinping allies added. When this meeting of high-ranking

When it comes to investing, most of us are looking for predictable growth over the long term with minimal effort and some measure of security. That’s what blue-chip stocks typically provide. Most are backed by proven businesses with solid balance sheets, strong cash flows, and often a dividend that steadily increases over time. So, it is

Given the complexities of the post-pandemic economy, investors may be served well seeking out the balanced profiles of the best mid-cap stocks to buy this month. In other circumstances, going through the middle of the road might be considered bland or playing it too safe. However, in the context of the equities sector, middle-capitalization companies

With the economy struggling with the highest inflation numbers seen in decades and rising interest rates, 2022 has been a terrible year. Included among the most damaged have been Reddit stocks. The good news is experts predict that the

There are rumblings that the bear market is coming to an end as the stock market continues to push higher. Unfortunately, there are still too many variables to account for before making a call like that.

With an accelerating electric vehicle boom, we’re looking at some of the top battery stocks to own now. All as Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA), Ford (NYSE:F), BMW (OTCMKTS:BMWYY), General Motors (NYSE:GM), and other major automakers accelerate their push into electric vehicles. General Motors wants to dethrone Tesla and sell only zero-emission vehicles by 2025. Ford wants to sell 600,000 EVs a year by 2023. BMW wants to

We always want to identify hot breakout stocks before they surge higher! Granted, the stock market has always been unpredictable, but it’s about to enter a sweet spot, post midterm elections. Therefore it’s perhaps an ideal time to invest in some breakout stocks that could surge in the coming weeks. Investors who invest money in

Although the concept of stocks to buy at the ‘midterm elections’ bottom seems farfetched considering the broader volatility this year, the calendar might provide a change of heart.

Lithium Americas (NYSE:LAC) stock represents one of the world’s most ambitious lithium miners. The company’s projects in Nevada and Argentina could yield massive quantities of much-needed lithium.

Everyone defines “boring stocks” differently, and everyone has their own ideas about criteria for the best boring stocks.  For example, I consider Mexican cement producer Cemex to be an incredibly dull stock. However, if you are in the construction industry, Cemex’s products aren’t dull; actually, they’re vital to your livelihood and well-being. So rather than

Since making some big moves last month Cassava Sciences (NASDAQ:SAVA) stock has largely traded sideways. Yet while SAVA stock has been acting less wild, don’t blame it on a lack of new developments. As InvestorPlace’s Eddie Pan reported Oct. 13, the biotech firm has announced plans to hold an open-label study for simufilam, its Alzheimer’s treatment

I’m no long-term fan of Big Tech stocks. Just earlier this year, I made the bold claim that Big Tech stocks were dead, calling for the demise of giants like Meta (META), Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL), Nvidia (NVDA), and Amazon (AMZN). Since then, those stocks have all collapsed more than 20%. But that was then –

[Editor’s note: “The Next Great Tech Bull Market Has Begun” was previously published in September 2022. It has since been updated to include the most relevant information available.] The tech sector dropped like a stone this year.

While the digitalization and innovation industries suffered sharp losses this year, the volatility opened doors for the best tech stocks to buy.
