The S&P 500 is one of the most recognized benchmarks in the stock market. In fact, an ETF that tracks the S&P 500, the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (NYSEARCA:SPY) is regularly one of the top ETFs by trading volume. It’s also one of the few stocks that has options expiring every day of the
Over the past month, Plug Power (NASDAQ:PLUG) shares have experienced roller coaster price action. In mid-July, Plug Power stock briefly entered rebound mode. At the time, renewed hopes for a possible “Fed pivot” on interest rates later this year sent PLUG and other renewable energy stocks higher. However, not too long after this short-lived rally,
Many cheap stocks under $10 are cheap for a good reason. Cash-burning biotechs, sketchy shell companies and overhyped fads with more sizzle than substance. But amidst the minefield of duds, there are always a few diamonds in the rough with legitimate 10-bagger potential. I’ve sifted through the bargain bin to bring you seven of the
After the mass IT outage caused by a CrowdStrike (NASDAQ:CRWD) update earlier this month, the cybersecurity company is facing major risks on multiple fronts. Moreover, the valuation of CrowdStrike stock remains very high. Also importantly, the firm does have multiple, strong competitors. While CrowdStrike stock could very well recover in the long term, I believe
Understanding the fundamentals of companies is crucial when evaluating stocks to buy. These stocks remain undervalued and are industry leaders with strong growth potential, positioning them to significantly drive the market higher post-earnings season. To begin with, the first company excels in cybersecurity with an AI-driven, modular platform that offers significant cost savings and rapid
Although a controversial sector, the concept of top defense stocks will likely become an increasingly important one. Primarily, circumstances in the geopolitical realm will likely worsen. At the same time, a critical election cycle could mean significant changes. Therefore, emotionally agnostic investors may consider the potential viability of this ecosystem. Several worrying catalysts come to
Sometimes, the best deals on the market offer real growth potential and a decent dividend yield. That’s because these types of securities offer a dual-factor approach to appreciating by providing returns in stock growth and a compounding dividend. Yet, finding these types of dividend stocks under $10 can be challenging as the media often underreport
Software stocks are some of the best investment options available for 2024 after a 28.2% gain in the technology sector drove them to excellent returns in the first half of the year. In the first half of 2024 the Nasdaq Composite Index, which is mostly weighted with technology and software stocks, rose by 18.6%. Over the
As the world accelerates its transition towards renewable energy, battery stocks remain at the forefront of this global shift. Heading into the summer of 2024, the demand for high-performance, sustainable battery solutions is more critical than ever. As per McKinsey & Company, the lithium-ion battery market is expected to grow to more than $400 billion
Investing in innovative companies can yield substantial returns, and Salesforce (NYSE:CRM) stock exemplifies this potential. As the world’s leading provider of customer relationship management (CRM) solutions, Salesforce has established itself as a dominant force in the enterprise software and cloud computing sectors. However, despite this impressive growth, the stock has experienced significant fluctuations this year,
The Nasdaq Composite has been a solid benchmark for many years. It’s up by 16% year-to-date and has logged a 114% gain over the past five years. The index consists of numerous holdings but has a large focus on tech companies. The Magnificent Seven stocks, in particular, carry a lot of weight within the Nasdaq
Lithium prices are struggling at multi-year lows, forcing some miners to consider closing down mines and delaying projects. But I’d use that as a reason to buy beaten-down lithium stocks for the long term. After all, we’ve seen this play out before. In 2018, prices peaked due to oversupply, which led to a massive 60%
Dividend stocks are a must-own component for any investor looking to establish serious wealth. We all know the statistic that the S&P 500 has returned 10.5% annually on average since its creation in 1957. It is one of the reasons the index is considered the benchmark against which we should compare our portfolios. What’s not
Semiconductors are the lifeline of the modern digital age. They help our smartphones, laptops and cars to function properly. Moreover, the rise of generative artificial intelligence (AI) has made semiconductors even more critical to the invention of new technologies. Software programmers train new generative AIs with complex large language models, and this process requires an
If you want to do well with biotech stocks, trade the anticipation of news. Look at Structure Therapeutics (NASDAQ:GPCR), for example. On March 8, I learned that GPCR would report Phase 2a 12-week obesity drug data in the second quarter of the year. Knowing that Phase 1 trials had positive results, I anticipated that Phase
The lower-than-expected revenue generated by Alphabet’s (NASDAQ:GOOG, GOOGL) YouTube website could be a warning sign regarding its advertising business in general. Meanwhile, the firm continues to face strong challenges on the regulatory front, and it is going to spend a great deal of money on AI going forward. Given all of these points, I advise
Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) has been one of the brightest stars in the Magnificent Seven rally, with the stock delivering incredible multibagger returns from its 2022 selloff lows. I was pounding the table on META back then, seeing immense value in the company’s core business despite the market’s pessimism. And so far, that bullish thesis has
No matter how you slice it, Donald Trump has the more straightforward path to the White House. Republican voters overwhelmingly chose him over other candidates. It was telegraphed that he would run for years and it happened. On the other end, Vice President Kamala Harris wasn’t even on the top of the ticket just a
The Dow Jones Industrial Average is a laggard in 2024. While other indices roared higher over the first half of the year, the venerable Dow gained only about half of its peers. Even though Magnificent Seven components Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) and Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) are part of the index because it is price-weighted and not market cap-weighted
As a rule of thumb, investors should avoid targeting companies that have suffered steep losses. You might think that circumstances can’t get any worse. Unfortunately, such a concept isn’t written into law. Public enterprises that have hemorrhaged red ink can hemorrhage even more. Still, focusing on select stocks with largest 52-week losses could lead to
