Stock Market

Everyone knows that the AI Boom has been producing some major winners — like Nvidia (NVDA) — in the stock market. But did you know that the biggest gains in this AI Boom are probably still to come? As we look toward 2025, the market is primed for a seismic shift, with a new type

Autonomous vehicles, robotics, space, and AI – these are the industries that Elon Musk cares about most. And for that reason, we think the stocks therein could succeed enormously in 2025 and ‘26. That’s because the world’s richest man has allied himself very closely with President-elect Donald Trump. And as a result, he has been

Thanks to immense technological progress, the world is rapidly changing all around us.  Admittedly, some of these changes are

Elon Musk wagered a huge bet on Donald Trump winning the White House – and that bet is already paying off. Musk spent about $130 million on the Trump campaign and related conservative efforts. And ever since it became clear that Trump won a second term in the White House, Tesla (TSLA) stock has surged

Keeping with the theme of the week, stocks’ fast-and-furious rally continued again today. Indeed, it was a really, really good day for the markets.  Sure, at the headline level, the Nasdaq only climbed about 1.5%, while the S&P 500 rose just 0.7%. That’s a pretty normal “good day” for Wall Street; nothing to write home

Let’s skip right to what you came here for: the type of stocks to buy under Trump’s second term. Many investors expect a Trump administration to have significant implications for the stock market and various sectors of the economy. Indeed, the markets are buzzing with certainty for the near-term, but is that accurate? And how

The third-quarter earnings season has officially begun, kicked off today by big-name banks like JPMorgan (JPM), Wells Fargo (WFC), and BlackRock (BLK). All topped earnings expectations.  Now, this is just a taste of the results to come. But despite the market’s uncertainty surrounding inflation and incoming rate cuts, we’re confident this earnings season will help

When a revolutionary new product launches, what’s the best way to invest in its success? By buying that product-maker’s stock… right? Maybe not.  Just consider: ever since Apple (AAPL) launched the first iPhone in June 2007, Apple stock has taken off like a rocket ship. It has risen more than 6,000% in value since that

Self-driving cars – they’ve hogged a large portion of the news cycle lately.  Indeed, earlier this week, Gov. Gavin Newsom made headlines when he vetoed a bill that would have banned autonomous vehicles (AVs) from operating in the state of California. Then, just yesterday, Waymo started offering driverless rides to some folks in Austin, Texas.

About a month ago, I flew home from a work trip into Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. It was late. My wife and kids were asleep. So, I fetched a ride from a ride-hailing app. The car arrived. It took me to my home in the suburbs. Dropped me off.  It was a typical ride-hailing

For the past several months – really, since ChatGPT’s launch in late 2022 – we’ve been laser-focused on all things artificial intelligence. And of course, the AI Boom that’s unfolding right now presents a lot of opportunities as well as risks. I mean, just imagine. This powerful tech could do things like help researchers develop

Today, stocks are rallying to fresh record highs. Though, that’s not necessarily news; it’s been happening all year long. But I’d argue that today is much more than just your average “good day” on Wall Street. In fact, this could be the Street’s best day of 2024.   Now, that’s not because stocks are posting their

AI has taken the world by storm, becoming the hottest sector on Wall Street, dominating media headlines, and leading conversations. Bain & Company, one of the world’s largest

Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock has long been the gold standard in tech – the most valuable company in the world, with a fanatically loyal customer base and an unmatched track record of innovation. For years, investors flocked to AAPL as a safe haven, a stock you could count on for steady, reliable returns in both good

Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) has been living in the shadow of its larger rival, Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA), for quite some time now. In less than a year, AMD has gone from being seen as a peer to Nvidia to more of a “Nvidia-lite” in the eyes of many investors. The stock tends to move in tandem

Palantir (NYSE:PLTR) stock is a company to watch as it heads into its earnings season for the third quarter. My recommendation for investors to hold this stock. Palantir stock continues to show strong revenue growth. I have concerns about the firm’s valuation and its ability to improve profitability. The third quarter will be an important

Wall Street loves artificial intelligence no matter what flavor it comes in. After intelligent voice leader SoundHound AI (NASDAQ:SOUN) reported second-quarter earnings on August 8, analysts engaged in a round of raising their price targets on SOUN stock.  They now have a $7.08 per share consensus view for the stock, which implies a 42% upside

Electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) might be the least loved Magnificent Seven member. Oddly enough, Tesla is either a pioneer or a pariah, depending on whom you ask about it. The best way to sum up Tesla’s current situation is: “It’s complicated.” Therefore, if you intend to buy Tesla stock, only purchase a few shares and have

Is there an artificial intelligence (AI) stock bubble that’s only starting to burst, or is the latest sell-off nothing more than a healthy, much-needed correction? That’s the big question on investors’ minds as they contemplate buying the dip in previously heated growth plays that are starting to show signs of bottoming out. Of course, only

A lot of analysts have been discussing the potential of Apple’s (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock from the lens of the company’s slowly declining innovative edge. After all, 2023 marked the first year that Apple’s sales for devices like the Mac and iPad dipped substantially from the year prior. Whether it was a lack of innovation or declining
