Stocks to buy

Coal stocks have been overlooked over the past few years, mostly due to the green energy wave. Consequently, these stocks are also considerably undervalued based on forward sales and cash flow estimates. Moreover, the best coal stocks also pay substantial dividends, which is ideal for investors in this volatile market environment. Geopolitical tensions and unprecedented

Even though the stock market has performed miserably lately, and throughout most of 2022, macroeconomic data shows there is reason to be hopeful equities can rebound meaningfully sooner rather than later. Moreover, unlike in April, May and June, a significant number of non-defensive stocks across numerous sectors are holding their own and even advancing on

After covering market ideas under $10 and later under $20, it’s now time to go up the standalone denomination chain of the Federal Reserve note spectrum and discuss under-$50 sleeper stocks to buy before Wall Street wakes up. The narrative is simple. Your boss likes your work and decides to give you a raise. With

We’re in the midst of a bear market. That’s something investors haven’t seen in quite some time. While many stocks are getting crushed, it does create an opportunity for patient buyers, especially with top blue-chip stocks to buy. While some may say it’s irresponsible to buy in an environment like this, I think it’s irresponsible

The Globe and Mail published an article on Sept. 23 that discussed the terrifying — and highly profitable — journey of a bank stock. The bank in question was Royal Bank of Canada (NYSE:RY), Canada’s largest company and arguably one of North America’s best bank stocks to buy.  Although the article is behind a paywall

Investors, including those who own green energy stocks, have myriad reasons to be bearish currently. Inflation remains high, with the year-over-year CPI registering 8.3% in August. The Fed responded as expected, raising interest rates by 0.75 percentage points, or 75 basis points, on Sept. 21.  That rate increase, the central bank’s third straight 75 basis-point

[Editor’s note: “Even in a Recession, Divergent Stocks Will Prosper” was previously published in May 2022. It has since been updated to include the most relevant information available.] Everyone is concerned about a recession these days. And who can blame them? Inflation’s been running at decade highs. A war is raging on in Europe. We’ve

Two years ago, I wrote about buying on the dip as an investment strategy for those in the FIRE movement. FIRE stands for Financial Independence, Retire Early, and involves a commitment to both cutting your daily expenses and an accelerated investment strategy. Today, FatFIRE is the “in” retirement concept.  FatFIRE takes things a step further.

[Editor’s note: “Prosper From Apple’s Major Upcoming Product Launch” was previously published in September 2022. It has since been updated to include the most relevant information available.] When Apple (AAPL) unveiled the first iPhone back in 2007, the late, great Steve Jobs implied that the iPod-lookalike with Blackberry-level functionality was a revolutionary product that would

It’s up for debate whether the overall stock market has hit a bottom, but many stocks have clearly become  oversold. That’s the case for many unknown and little-known stocks. Consequently, there are now plenty of unknown stocks to invest in that can climb tremendously. These types of stocks, which are mostly small-cap and micro-cap names,

Amid the economic chaos of 2022, investors have all but forgotten about VR and the once-promising metaverse. Since late 2021, Google search interest in the metaverse has collapsed by 88%. And stocks like Roblox (RBLX) and Meta (META) have been absolutely crushed. But maybe investors shouldn’t have forgotten about the metaverse. Maybe there’s something to

[embedded content] One of the best applications of virtual and extended reality (XR) is for work. And I fully expect consumers to interact with VR not with headsets, but with immersive experiences outside of the hardware currently on the market. Think of the iPhone and how it made smartphones ubiquitous – it was convenient. In

Some stocks under $10 are cheap for a reason, but there are other stocks under $10 that are solid long-term investments. There are all sorts of equities from which to choose when building your portfolio. While there are arguably great names at high prices, it’s important that investors don’t overlook quality stocks to buy for

The latest market downturn has created several opportunities for investors to pick up high-quality, little-known stocks. That includes blue-chip stocks that have shed value since the beginning of the year. Granted, companies out of the mainstream spotlight tend to be riskier than larger counterparts. Nevertheless, the value of little-known stocks cannot be ignored as the

Today we will discuss three car stocks to buy as the North American International Auto Show returns to Detroit after a three-year absence. Although it was a smaller event than in previous years, Wall Street was eager to see which automakers were driving in the fast lane. In 2021, car sales metrics in the U.S.

If we look at the past few decades, the S&P 500 has witnessed some big crashes. However, the market has remained in an uptrend. The same holds true for industries that have multiyear tailwinds. Electric vehicle stocks have paused after a big rally. However, this growth story is still in the early stages. Therefore, I’ve

Water stocks help investors focus on one of the most fundamental aspects of life on Earth. All organisms, including humans, need water to stay alive. It is reported that water makes up about 70% of human body weight. Water and power are also critical in keeping the world’s economies growing and producing. But water is

Biotech stocks have performed relatively well compared to the broader market of late. The SPDR S&P Biotech ETF (NYSEARCA:XBI) is up 21% over the past three months compared with a 6% gain for the S&P 500. Biotech stocks have a reputation for being high-risk investments. The underlying firms spend a ton on research and development

Years ago, I  heard Leon Cooperman, widely viewed as a legendary investors, say that there are two types of stock investors: those who like to find stocks to buy that are rising and those who like to buy equities on weakness. Usually, I’m in the latter group. Once in a while, however, I do like

Last week, a tentative deal was announced between unions and the railroad companies averting a national strike that could have seen 125,000 railroad workers go on strike. It also avoided a major economic disruption at a time when a recession remains a real possibility. Since the announcement of the deal on the morning of Sept.
