Natural gas markets are under increasing stress in Europe after the Russian invasion of Ukraine. For now, the American gas market is marginally affected.

Matterport (NASDAQ:MTTR) continues to draw the interest of retail investors. Unfortunately, that’s not being reflected in the stock price, which continues to fall.

In equity markets, there are stocks that can be clearly differentiated as growth or dividend stocks. Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock seems to be an exception.

Novavax’s (NASDAQ:NVAX) Covid-19 shot is reportedly progressing towards an emergency use approval (EUA).

In recent years, artificial intelligence has been a strong force in the business and tech sector. It offers many benefits to large organizations and individuals alike, from enhancing workforce productivity to providing solutions to common problems.

I have a friend named Joey that shares my enthusiasm for Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock. Every time I see him, the subject invariably changes to Tesla’s performance that week.

A couple of years ago, Chinese electric vehicle (EV) maker Nio (NYSE:NIO) was widely considered a long shot, or perhaps an EV-market also-ran. Pessimism was the prevailing sentiment and NIO stock was quite cheap. Source: Andy Feng / Shutterstock.com It has been a veritable roller-coaster ride since that time. From the emergence of multiple Covid-19 variant

Market volatility has stymied a recovery for IBM (NYSE:IBM) stock. As you may recall, back in December, when most tech stocks were trending lower, shares of IBM were soaring. The stock even held up well during the late January selloff. Yet with the big dive driven by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, it pulled back. That brings

Overall, the stock market hasn’t been very rewarding for investors so far in 2022. Amid a wide range of global and economic concerns, many of the go-to mega-cap stocks have not only seen their growth slow this year, but they’ve also been losing ground. That said, the answer to these problems for growth investors is

Recently a number of reports emerged, including a Jan. 5 article in Barron’s magazine, that Charlie Munger has “doubled down” into shares of Alibaba Group Holding (NYSE:BABA).

Nikola (NASDAQ:NKLA) is making great progress in manufacturing and generating orders for its battery-electric and hydrogen heavy-duty commercial trucks.

Consequently,

To put it simply, workforce-management software company Asana (NYSE:ASAN) is in the business of reducing the impact gap in the typical workplace. It’s an important concept in the Covid-19-influenced “new normal,” and prospective ASAN stock investors should understand just how important Asana could be in the coming years.

There seems to be a shift in the market. Speculative growth stocks and cryptocurrency, among other hot 2021 trends, have slumped in recent months. Meanwhile, more defensive stocks such as energy, utilities, industrials and food and beverage companies are rising. Amid these shifting sectoral winds, it’s time to take a look at infrastructure stocks. Infrastructure

Ah, the joys of the content publication stream! During the time that this story about potential entertainment stocks jumping higher due to consumers wanting out of novel coronavirus-related restrictions was initially researched, the omicron variant dominated headlines. But recently, infectious disease experts identified a new variant in France. Are we on the verge of yet

I hypothesize that retail investors don’t spend much time considering country-specific exchange traded funds (ETFs) to buy.  I don’t have empirical data to back up this assertion. However, it seems logical that most smaller investors are looking to get more bang for their buck. For example, why buy three or four country-specific emerging markets ETFs

Solar stocks, for the most part, ended 2021 on a weak note. Many investors decided to take money off the table following significant gains seen in alternative energy names. For instance, the Dow Jones U.S. Renewable Energy Equipment Total Stock Market Index was down 24.0% in 2021. Yet, despite the volatility in shares prices of

Robinhood Markets (NASDAQ:HOOD) has had a rough several months.
