Stocks to buy

As we come closer to the end of the year, investors are hoping for a respite from the bear market. With the economy struggling with the highest inflation numbers seen in decades and rising interest rates, 2022 has been a terrible year. Included among the most damaged have been Reddit stocks. The good news is experts predict that the

There are rumblings that the bear market is coming to an end as the stock market continues to push higher. Unfortunately, there are still too many variables to account for before making a call like that. Whether we’re in a bull or bear market though, investors should be looking for blue-chip stocks to buy. That’s

With an accelerating electric vehicle boom, we’re looking at some of the top battery stocks to own now. All as Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA), Ford (NYSE:F), BMW (OTCMKTS:BMWYY), General Motors (NYSE:GM), and other major automakers accelerate their push into electric vehicles. General Motors wants to dethrone Tesla and sell only zero-emission vehicles by 2025. Ford wants to sell 600,000 EVs a year by 2023. BMW wants to

We always want to identify hot breakout stocks before they surge higher! Granted, the stock market has always been unpredictable, but it’s about to enter a sweet spot, post midterm elections. Therefore it’s perhaps an ideal time to invest in some breakout stocks that could surge in the coming weeks. Investors who invest money in

Although the concept of stocks to buy at the ‘midterm elections’ bottom seems farfetched considering the broader volatility this year, the calendar might provide a change of heart. According to The New York Times, the U.S. equities sector generally follows election-related patterns. “The months leading up to midterm elections have generally been the worst in

Lithium Americas (NYSE:LAC) stock represents one of the world’s most ambitious lithium miners. The company’s projects in Nevada and Argentina could yield massive quantities of much-needed lithium. Plus, LAC stock could be ready to run as Lithium Americas collaborates with a fellow Canadian metals company to develop a lithium supply chain in North America. If

Everyone defines “boring stocks” differently, and everyone has their own ideas about criteria for the best boring stocks.  For example, I consider Mexican cement producer Cemex to be an incredibly dull stock. However, if you are in the construction industry, Cemex’s products aren’t dull; actually, they’re vital to your livelihood and well-being. So rather than

Since making some big moves last month Cassava Sciences (NASDAQ:SAVA) stock has largely traded sideways. Yet while SAVA stock has been acting less wild, don’t blame it on a lack of new developments. As InvestorPlace’s Eddie Pan reported Oct. 13, the biotech firm has announced plans to hold an open-label study for simufilam, its Alzheimer’s treatment

I’m no long-term fan of Big Tech stocks. Just earlier this year, I made the bold claim that Big Tech stocks were dead, calling for the demise of giants like Meta (META), Alphabet (GOOG, GOOGL), Nvidia (NVDA), and Amazon (AMZN). Since then, those stocks have all collapsed more than 20%. But that was then –

[Editor’s note: “The Next Great Tech Bull Market Has Begun” was previously published in September 2022. It has since been updated to include the most relevant information available.] The tech sector dropped like a stone this year. So, it’s easy to forget the cardinal rule that marks many a bull market: Tech still rules the

While the digitalization and innovation industries suffered sharp losses this year, the volatility opened doors for the best tech stocks to buy. For this exercise, though, we’re going to explore the speculative side of the spectrum. Each of these names trades hands (at the time of writing) for no more than $5. While a treacherous

Before discussing stocks that will make you a millionaire, there is an important observation to discuss. One of the biggest changes in investing style over the decades is the average holding period. Back in the 1950s, the average holding period for stocks was eight years. Data from June 2020 indicates that the average holding period has

Any discussion regarding the best dividend stocks of all time begins and ends with the Dividend Aristocrats. They are S&P 500 companies that have increased their annual dividend payment for at least 25 consecutive years. There are currently 65 names on this prestigious list. While there is no question the 65 Dividend Aristocrats have staying power,

As Halloween approaches, investors’ minds may be on finding treats rather than picking stocks. That said, as we head into November, compiling a list of top stock picks to consider is certainly a good move, as many tech stocks have gotten hit very hard. This earnings season hasn’t been kind to many tech stocks. Accordingly,

The S&P 500 has been in bear-market territory for more than a month, but it is breaking higher this week. We think there is reason to hope the trend will continue. The first sign of hope is traders have reduced their leverage and margin debt has returned to a more sustainable level. Traders (you included)

Not everyone, it seems, is massively bullish about China-based electric vehicle manufacturer Nio (NYSE:NIO). For instance, Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) CEO Elon Musk and some analysts with Morgan Stanley might feel cautious about China’s economy and its impact on future automotive sales. But regardless of what they say, it’s not too late to buy NIO stock. The company could

It’s true that the troika of Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT), Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL), and Meta (NASDAQ:META), much loved by the Street for the decade that ended in mid-2021, reported disappointing third-quarter results. Once viewed as beyond reproach by most, those three stocks are now being shunned and scorned by the “smart money.” But the Street is finally

Safe stocks for retirement are those that are less inclined to suffer in times of turmoil or represent a sector that is more recession-proof than others. That’s not to say that a safe stock will never see a decline – but safe stocks for retirement are more likely to withstand the negative pressures in a

An income-rich retirement requires a lot of planning. There are many things that retirees must do in order to ensure that their golden years will be financially comfortable. IRAs, a 401k, HSAs, annuities, pensions, current earnings, and expected age at retirement are just a few of the items to consider. However, it all comes down

Companies that just went public aren’t the most popular option for investors looking to buy stocks this year. With the S&P500 shedding almost 20% of its value, and economists warning investors of an impending recession, most people have retreated to safer stocks. Moreover, the coronavirus pandemic and the market downturn combined with high-interest rates have
