Many of the hedge fund favorites are technology companies, my analysis of the most popular stocks among the 40 largest hedge funds shows. Additionally,  the top five hedge funds in 2022 hold widely followed names like Coca-Cola (NYSE:KO). The media tends to  closely cover the stocks that are most widely owned by hedge funds, making

Inflation may have finally peaked, and if so, then this could greatly benefit Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock and its stakeholders. Also, AAPL stock might get a lift soon as Apple prepares to introduce exciting new tech products. Everybody wants to hop on the latest trend in the market, it seems. From penny stocks to meme stocks, the

For investors looking for true value stocks, few options have been available until this year. Indeed, the number of undervalued bargain stocks in the market now is astounding, with the valuations of many stocks crumbling from their peak levels.

So far in August, Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock has been making some whipsaw moves. Following its announcement of preliminary results for the preceding quarter, investors bailed out of the chip maker’s shares, sending the stock lower by double-digits over two trading days. But not too long after that, the stock bounced back to levels seen just

Monkeypox stocks, our topic for today, have had a mostly mixed performance so far in 2022. It is likely, however, that they could benefit from the similar tailwinds enjoyed by companies, such as Pfizer (NYSE:PFE), BioNTech (NASDAQ:BNTX), and Moderna (NASDAQ:MRNA), which have developed the Covid-19 vaccines that have now become household names. Monkeypox is a

We can account for regular market corrections and even the occasional bear market like we’re seeing now. However, a black swan market crash is impossible to predict and can have a devastating impact on one’s portfolio. Black swan events are not fun and they do not simply look like a “sale” in the stock market.

With the risk-off trade dominating amid economic uncertainty, investors’ enthusiasm for penny stocks has dwindled. The focus has instead been on blue chips and deeply undervalued growth stocks. In any market conditions, though, there are penny stocks that will outperform. Allocating a small portion of your portfolio to select penny stocks could boost your overall

The bear market of 2022 has many investors down. Not only have many lost money, but there are also fears that a recession is imminent. That would lead to further losses and an overall souring across society.  That said, there’s certainly money to be made. It was Warren Buffett who famously said, “Be fearful when

The beaten-down stock market has created an opportunity for contrarian investors in short-squeeze stocks. Essentially, bearish traders must borrow the underlying securities which they are pessimistic about. However, bullish traders en masse can deliberately bid up heavily shorted names, forcing the bears to buy back borrowed equities. Experts refer to the resulting upside panic as

As a nearly trillion-dollar company by market capitalization, everyday there’s news about Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock. However, one of the news items making the most headlines now about the electric vehicle (EV) maker is the potential upside from forthcoming changes to the U.S.’s EV tax credit. U.S. Congress has passed the Inflation Reduction Act, and President

Do you think I’d be writing for InvestorPlace if I knew the three top stocks to invest in right now? Of course not.  Then again, no one knows the three best stocks to invest in at any given time. That’s why hedge fund investors like Jim Simons are so successful. His firm, Renaissance Technologies, uses

The climate and energy provisions within the budget recently passed by Congress have the electric vehicle (EV) sector buzzing. Clearly, some EV makers will gain from the legislation and some will lose, so investors must have their due diligence in place when investing in EV stocks. The two obvious goals of the bill are to make

Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock hasn’t looked this good in a while. Not long ago, the company revealed that the electric vehicle (or EV) manufacturer plans to enact a three-for-one share split on Aug. 17. Furthermore, CEO Elon Musk tweeted a hint that two new EV models will be shipped out. For these reasons, or just because Tesla

While the biggest analyst calls garner the most attention, “buy,” “sell” and “hold” ratings from analysts are not always a good source for investors. The reason is simple. The biggest analyst calls are often late in warning investors to sell a stock. For example, after a company reported a weak quarter, analysts rush in, after

Semiconductor stocks have been in focus ever since President Joe Biden signed the bipartisan CHIPS and Science Act into law on Aug. 9. The PHLX Semiconductor index is up around 5% since then. Of course, not all chip companies will benefit equally. Before we get to which semiconductor stocks are likely to benefit most, it’s

When you think of penny stocks, you’re probably not thinking of them as potential cheap dividend stocks under $5. Instead, you’re contemplating the speculative nature of these investments and whether they have moonshot potential. When investors buy penny stocks, earning dividend income is probably the last thing on their minds. Yet there are a few

As the U.S. Dollar strengthens, now may not seem like the right time to buy gold stocks. Especially as the Federal Reserve appears likely to continue raising interest rates to combat inflation. Further rate hikes could send the U.S. Dollar Index, already at multi-year highs, even higher. The Fed’s interest rate hike has already put

Plug Power (NASDAQ:PLUG) stock has been very volatile since 2021. After zooming from penny stock to large-cap stock during the late 2020/early 2021 boom in “green wave” plays, this particular “future of energy” play has experienced wild swings. With this in mind, you may be skeptical that the stock’s latest rally, which has sent it

In a bull market, it’s easy to identify some of the best stocks to make money fast. This task becomes challenging during bear markets or uncertain market conditions. There are, however, short-term money-making opportunities in the latter situations. As an example, Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN) has surged by 54% in the last month. Similarly, Coupang (NYSE:CPNG) stock
