Semiconductor stocks have had an interesting 2023. There have been some major bright spots for the industry, such as the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) applications requiring massive amounts of computing power. On the other hand, there’s been a lot of negatives for semiconductor stocks. Consumer electronics demand has slumped following the 2021 and 2022
InvestorPlace published an article last December about the seven hottest biotech stocks to own in 2023 and beyond. One of the seven was the SPDR S&P Biotech ETF (NYSEARCA:XBI). XBI tracks the performance of the S&P Biotechnology Select Industry Index which represents the biotechnology sub-sector of the S&P Total Market Index. XBI currently has 133
Although the equities sector has enjoyed a strong run recently, it might not be bad idea to consider wide-moat stocks. Sure, they’re not the sexiest investment category to target. However, the concept of a continued rise in the capital market might be stretching credulity. For one thing, we must consider the technical dynamic. Indeed, the
Without question, one of the ugliest topics in the equities space involves the concept of stocks to sell. You mention that and you’re bound to receive flak. It’s understandable. Akin to a sports editorialist criticizing a particular club, fans of that organization naturally take offense. Given that tribalistic sentiments only accelerate when money is involved,
Large-cap growth stocks continue to lead the market higher. Yes, technology stocks are the main drivers of the market this year. However, several other non-tech names have also enjoyed big rallies and rewarded stockholders with gains.

The hydrocarbon industry has slowed amid concerns about the climate crisis and the transition to electric and hydrogen-powered vehicles. Still, oil stocks continue to generate massive free cash flow and commodity prices continue to surge in volatile swings. Oil stocks will continue to have a place in the world despite the radical transformation of our
Lithium stocks still have plenty of gas in the tank amid the world’s transition to electric vehicles. But despite this apparent tailwind, there is good reason to believe that these developments have not yet been fully priced into the valuations of these companies. The stocks discussed in this article have company-specific catalysts and positive developments
Many investors are experiencing the impact of high inflation and high interest rates for the first time. It’s a time when following the daily market news can drive you crazy. First, good news is bad news, then good news is good news. That’s not just true of the meme stocks; it’s true of many long-term
With oil prices dipping below the $80 mark this month, it’s plausible to think that the energy stock rally has hit its peak. Yet, this could be a premature assumption. Energy stocks remain ripe for growth, especially with 2024 forecasts hinting at significant supply constraints, potentially reaching a shortfall of one million barrels daily. Interestingly,
In 2024, UBS expects disinflation and rising unemployment to impact economic output, prompting the Federal Open Market Committee to implement proactive rate cuts. The FEderal Open Market Committee designed the initial cut to prevent the nominal funds rate from becoming overly restrictive amid falling inflation, with subsequent cuts later in the year to counteract economic
For much of 2022 and 2023, investors could take shelter in dividend stocks. They were, as the saying goes, the best houses in a bad neighborhood (the equity markets). It’s not that the analysts loved these stocks, but they hated them less. That sentiment is changing which makes it a good time to look for
Editor’s note: This story was previously published early this month. It has since been updated to include the most relevant information on Dojo and other custom AI.

Investors are loading up on small-cap stocks and other growth stocks as the light at the end of the tunnel brightens. The Federal Reserve is signaling that peak rates may already have arrived. In fact, if inflation continues to subside and the worst is over, now is the time to act. Interest-rate sensitive equities are

Amidst the uncertainty, savvy investors recognize that market downturns potentially pave the way for future prosperity. However, the quest for long-term stocks to buy soon remains fraught with challenges. The fleeting allure of meme stocks, the snares of value traps and the troubling macroeconomic situation remain formidable tasks for the average investor. Yet, patience and
Knowing the AI stocks to avoid is just as important as identifying winners in artificial intelligence. AI stocks largely represent companies seen as innovative and disruptive, creating new markets and generating huge returns. But not every stock can be a winner. The Portfolio Grader evaluates all stocks in the market based on growth potential, debt
I should pay more attention when I sign up to write about specific companies. In Nvidia’s (NASDAQ:NVDA) case, I could write a bullish or a bearish take on NVDA stock. For some strange reason, I took the bearish stance. Excuse me? Anyone who’s followed me over the years knows that CEO Jensen Huang is my
As I’ve noted in past columns, many investors may want to emulate the stock picks of billionaires because they have obviously been successful at selecting good stocks and often have access to better experts and more information than retail stock pickers. This has led to this list of stocks that billionaires love. Moreover, the stock
