You’ve heard about meme stocks, but have you heard of meme funds? With the Destiny Tech100 (NYSE:DXYZ) fund, you can diversify your portfolio into unusual, high-risk assets. It’s not something you want to allocate too much of your capital towards, but audacious investors might want to give DXYZ stock a try. I’m calling it a

Taiwan Semiconductor (NYSE:TSM) is a chipmaking juggernaut. All companies, including Taiwan Semiconductor, face obstacles and problems. The rest of 2024 will be uncertain for Taiwan Semiconductor stock, so it’s wise to wait for a better price before buying shares. I’ll give Taiwan Semiconductor a lot of credit for demonstrating resilience after Taiwan’s most powerful earthquake in 25 years.

Trump Media & Technology Group (NASDAQ:DJT) is a lightning rod among publicly traded companies. Because of its volatility and risk, Trump Media stock could shoot for the moon or have a crash landing. Therefore, constant vigilance and appropriate position sizing are vitally important. People have strong opinions about Trump Media & Technology Group, which is typically

Investing in uranium and nuclear stocks makes a lot of sense to me from a very long-term perspective. Why? Because the demand for clean, reliable, and efficient energy sources amidst a global push for decarbonization is only going to increase. Nuclear power, with its low-carbon footprint, offers base-load electricity without the intermittency issues of renewable

Knowing must come before owning. Many passive investors (not to be confused with passive-income investors) just own Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT), but they don’t really know what the company is doing. Microsoft is spending billions of dollars on something surprising. With the full story, you may adjust your strategy with Microsoft stock.  Certainly, some people are only invested in

There’s a lot of evidence suggesting that spinoff stocks are generally a good idea to watch. Following a split from their parent company, many such firms do well thanks to their efficiency and newly-found flexibility.  They also tend to be undervalued at first which presents an attractive entry point for value investors. That’s why many

Once mainly a develop of operating systems for desktop computers, Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) is mainly a cloud-computing and artificial intelligence technology company now. Yet, even Microsoft has its weak points, and Microsoft stock gets a “B” grade and investors may choose to hold their current share position. Adding some Microsoft shares to your portfolio is fine, but

“Do one thing and do it well.” Over time, companies forget that sage advice, preferring instead to build mini empires. Whether through acquisitions or internally developed projects, businesses swell with many tangential businesses. Some end up straying away from the company’s original objective, others are too small to make a difference. The result: a bloated

Should you own every single member of the so-called Magnificent Seven in 2024? Not necessarily. Indeed, it may be time to cross Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) off of the Mag-7 list. After we delve into some of Apple’s issues, you’ll have a better understanding of why we’re assigning a “D” grade to Apple stock.   We’d be hard-pressed to give

Curious why a veteran trader believes the market will scream higher by summer? Or why he believes the recent lows from the past few weeks might be the lowest point for the rest of 2024? You’ll find out now because Jeff Remsburg, the editor of the daily InvestorPlace Digest, just finished up an interview with

After its March 21 debut, Reddit (NYSE:RDDT) more than doubled from its IPO price. Early investors benefited from rapid growth and a successful IPO. RDDT stock has since declined significantly. While it still trades roughly $10 higher than its $34 per share offering price, it’s one that’s got some downside momentum investors have to consider.

We’re a little more than halfway through first-quarter earnings season, so now is the time to review this earnings season winners and losers. In general, market results have been encouraging so far. Forty-six percent of companies listed on the S&P 500 have reported their quarterly results. Seventy-seven percent beat forecasts with their earnings or profits,

If any company reflects the state of China’s economy, it would be e-commerce and cloud-computing firm Alibaba (NYSE:BABA). Perhaps Alibaba stock is a bullish bet on China’s economic recovery, just as much as a wager on Alibaba as a company. In that light, there are definite risks to investing in Alibaba, though there are also potential rewards.

The stock market has been on a caffeine high since the Federal Reserve promised to cut interest rates. The damaging economic impact of the Fed’s unprecedented ratcheting of rates could be minimized if rate cuts were to begin. Yet the insatiable spending policies of politicians in Washington are keeping inflation high and growing. Fed president

SoundHound AI (NASDAQ:SOUN) certainly benefited when the artificial intelligence trend swept through Wall Street. You may choose to hold SoundHound AI stock if you’re bullish on AI technology for the long term.

Tesla‘s (NASDAQ:TSLA) announcement of cutting 10% of its global workforce shook the electric vehicle (EV) market and EV stocks. Amid softening demand for electric cars, Tesla suffered an 8% drop in deliveries in the first quarter. That was the first time it shipped fewer cars in over a decade. But it means Tesla can’t justify

You may already be invested in Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL), and perhaps you’re thinking about starting or adding to a share position. Alphabet stock is a Magnificent Seven member, but not without its problems. Overall, we give it a “B” grade and encourage you to consider both the pros and cons. After all, being a full-on

Reddit (NYSE:RDDT) has been quite popular since its launch two decades ago. Indeed, 2023 was a mixed-bag of expectations for Reddit stock, especially when investors saw an $804 million revenue which was accompanied by a $91 million loss. Reddit admitted it was slow to monetize its platform, but expressed optimism about its business potential. The

If you’re only looking for a risk-free, “steady Eddie” financial-sector holding, then you probably don’t want to invest in Robinhood Markets (NASDAQ:HOOD). Bear in mind, Robinhood isn’t a traditional broker and trading platform. Still, risk-tolerant folks may find valid reasons to own Robinhood stock, so we’re assigning it a “B” grade. Robinhood became famous as a
