Everyone might be talking about the stock performance of Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) last year but Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ:SMCI) stock blew away the chipmaker. SMCI stock is up 1,200% compared to the measly tripling in value by Nvidia.  The manufacturer of servers, networks, storage solutions, workstations and more optimized for artificial intelligence (AI) has gotten an

Google and YouTube parent company Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL) is a Magnificent Seven or “Mag-7″ member, but GOOG stock hasn’t been the most magnificent performer lately. We’re still assigning the stock a “B” grade, however, as Alphabet can still offer good value to its shareholders. Alphabet’s Google is, of course, a dominator in the U.S. search-engine market. Plus, the

The travel industry has been in a post-pandemic boom, but the wind may be going out of its sails. Online travel agent (OTA) Expedia (NASDAQ:EXPE) surprised the market by announcing it was firing 1,500 employees, or 9% of its workforce, because of sagging demand. The cuts will hit its bottom line by $80 million to

Rivian (NASDAQ:RIVN) stock has fallen more than 40% this year and could easily slide further. It has made only about 100,000 electric vehicles so far. Though the company is based in Irvine, California, it has plans to build a $5 billion production facility east of Atlanta. The Atlanta plant aims to produce the R3, a

The cryptocurrency market has taken the world by storm, with the industry bellwether Bitcoin (BTC-USD) soaring by over 157% last year alone. This bullish trend has seamlessly spread to crypto stocks, encompassing businesses dealing in crypto exchanges, mining, and other related areas. These stocks are ticking in the green, mirroring the positive sentiment in the

The market has shown extreme volatility for months due to inflation and recession concerns. Thus, it’s only prudent for investors to look into resilient stocks during any economic situation. One of the stocks to buy and hold that show resilience is Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock. Although AAPL stock saw some volatility to kick off 2024 due

Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) CEO Jeff Bezon just became the world’s richest person, and people who bought AMZN stock a year ago are also doing quite well now. However, this doesn’t mean Amazon’s shareholders are guaranteed a continued rally. Furthermore, cautious investors should think about Amazon’s valuation. Besides, Amazon’s new artificial intelligence chatbot isn’t perfect, and the company’s

The AI Boom already arrived. That was made abundantly clear last month when the world’s leading maker of AI chips – Nvidia (NVDA) – reported that its revenues grew more than 260% in the last quarter of 2023 and management said that revenues are set to rise another 230% during this quarter.  But, while the

Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) has emerged as a dominant force in AI chip technology. With a myriad of new technologies requiring ever-more computing power, Nvidia’s high-performance chips stand ready to meet this demand. The dominant player in the high-performance chip space, NVDA stock has received outsized attention. And as its recent results show, the company is certainly

Year-to-date, Nivida (NASDAQ:NVDA) has risen almost 80%. It has helped the Nasdaq and S&P 500 reach new highs, and data shows that NVDA stock has dethroned Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) as the most popular stock traded by retail investors. With AI being the new buzzword thrown around and Nvidia stock price launching like a rocket, many are

The Magnificent 7 stocks have captivated investors over the past few months with their meteoric rise. These heavyweight tech names have propelled much of the market’s gains in recent years. But not all of the Magnificent 7 have delivered equally magnificent returns. While titans like Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) and Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) continue charging ahead, stocks like

AMD (NASDAQ:AMD) stock is likely to continue to climb over the short-to-medium term as investors become more excited about the chip maker’s considerable opportunities in the artificial intelligence space. Over the longer term, however, threats to the firm’s other businesses, along with the high valuation of AMD stock, are likely to drag down the shares

You’re not alone in thinking you missed the Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) rally. The stock just seems to keep going higher with no end in sight. And as shares attain new heights, it is only reasonable to think at some point NVDA stock has to return to earth. And yet every day the never-ending rally never ends.

Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR) initially focused on serving the defense and intelligence sectors but has since expanded its customer base to include various industries such as healthcare, energy, and finance. PLTR stock provides AI and ML-based data analytics tool for a number of businesses. While Peter Thiel’s company has certainly made impressive strides to improve profitability and

If QuantumScape (NYSE:QS), a solid-state battery producer, successfully brings these batteries to the market, investors might be in for some significant profits. Indeed, solid-state batteries have been touted as the future. These alternatives to traditional lithium-ion batteries are safer, can charge faster, and hold more charge (leading to more range). Thus, for those banking on

Once space was no longer the sole province of government but was opened to private enterprise the possibility for real entrepreneurship was born. It is impossible to not be awed by watching a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket returning to the launch pad for reuse.  The possibility of real space travel and space tourism has never

Nio (NYSE:NIO) recently delivered solid 2023 delivery numbers and January performance. However, the market appears to remain relatively cold for this high-potential, high-risk Chinese EV maker. Geopolitical risks remain, and the fact that NIO stock is a U.S.-listed ADR provides its own set of headwinds. That said, the company is growing, and growing fast. And

More of the world’s nations are going into rising conflict. This is why stocks in the defense sector are catching more of the market’s attention, and where Wall Street goes, money tends to follow. Tensions between the United States and China, and even the Red Sea today, serve as a potential for new government contracts.

The AI stock rally has continued at a torrid pace. Many companies in this sector have cruised to new all-time highs almost daily in recent months. As an investor, it’s natural to feel some skepticism and ask how much longer this momentum can last. We’ve seen bubbles inflate and pop across various sectors over the

I’ll be the first to admit that I’m an Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) fan. My wife and I own at least 10 Apple products, with more to come, I’m sure. However, regarding AAPL stock, I’m afraid the company’s car debacle is a sign it might be too scared to fail.  This reluctance is not the hallmark of
