Source: Bing AI Turn on the television, and you are likely to find someone discussing the economic recession that never happened. The economy is on the brink of collapse, they say, and stocks are set to crash and burn as they did in 2008… If you have not already, you need to stop listening to
Stock Market
Healthcare stocks trudged through what was a terrible 2023 for the sector. While the S&P 500 rose by 24% during 2023, the healthcare sector managed paltry returns of 0.3%. Yet, hope springs eternal, particularly within the stock market, and investors are increasingly vocalizing their expectations for a 2024 rebound. Share prices throughout the sector remain
Let your winners run. That’s the advice shared by the world’s most successful investors. Investing legend Peter Lynch famously said: “Selling your winners and holding your losers is like cutting the flowers and watering the weeds.” If a stock is running ahead, the best move investors can make is sit back and enjoy the ride.
The so-called “Magnificent 7” are a group of mega-cap tech stocks that have absolutely dominated the markets in recent years. Investors who remained loyal to these stocks through thick and thin have beaten the market by a wide margin. Unsurprisingly, many investors are willing to let this trade ride. However, large-cap stocks can see their
Stocks were rallying again Thursday, despite Tesla’s (NASDAQ:TSLA) stinker of a quarter. Even prominent Tesla bull Dan Ives of Wedbush Securities said it was a “train wreck” and criticized Elon Musk and his team for failing to “step up like adults in the room.” Tesla plummeted more than 10% in midday trading, pushing its market
Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR) is a well-known player in the U.S. cyber-defense industry. The company won’t easily dominate the global cybersecurity market. Despite the high price, we still rate PLTR stock a “B” for its potential rally in 2024. Palantir Technologies is a favorite among momentum-focused technology stock investors. For instance, Cathie Wood’s Ark Invest purchased over 1.5 million shares of Palantir
Electric vehicle battery startup QuantumScape (NYSE:QS) stock is heading into the new year in fine style, up 25% for the year. QuantumScape is shipping prototype batteries to customers, with one customer surpassing design targets. Yet there are clouds around all those silver livings. QuantumScape has sufficient funds for the next few years but will require
For now, Nvidia’s (NASDAQ:NVDA) chips, which other companies use to create AI, are considered vastly superior to those of NVDA’s competitors. As a result, Nvidia can charge exorbitant amounts for those chips. But the AI chips of one of Nvidia’s major competitors, Intel (NASDAQ:INTC), appears to be starting to gain great respect in the marketplace,
The outsized returns of the S&P 500 this year were driven by the returns of just a handful of stocks. Remove the so-called Magnificent 7 from the equation and the benchmark index’s performance was relatively flat. The Dow Jones Industrial Average, on the other hand, enjoyed a much more broad-based movement higher. This is what
Among AI stocks, both high-profile and more under-the-radar, Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR) continues to be one of the top choices. Those bearish on PLTR stock chalk up its strong 2023 performance to “AI hype.” Yet while it’s easy to see why they jump to this conclusion, a substantive bull case can still be made. The use
How can SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) stock go from hated in 2022 to loved in 2023? It’s all about central bank policy and the market’s expectations. In the end, SoFi Technologies will likely benefit from more accommodative monetary policy. However, the ultra-efficient market already knows this, and many of SoFi Technologies’ investors may have jumped the gun. It’s
For Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock, 2023 has been a year of inflating expectations. Shares are up 241% this year. The company’s market cap is now $1.23 trillion. That of the “Magnificent 7″ have replaced the reign of the “Cloud Czars”,” with Nvidia and Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) added to the mix. But every technology, and every tech hype
Chinese electric vehicle (EV) maker Nio (NYSE:NIO) seems like it should be doing better than it is. Sales are growing, it’s developing new, specialized chips for its cars and it has an innovative battery-swap business that it might just spin off into a stand-alone company. In China’s fast-growing EV market, that should spell success —
Everybody and his uncle wants to invest in artificial intelligence (AI) nowadays. Yet, many stock traders are unaware of the huge opportunity with an AI-adjacent technology, quantum computing. IonQ (NYSE:IONQ) IONQ stock offers pure-play exposure to quantum computing, but this stock isn’t appropriate for every investor. IonQ is headquartered in Maryland, and the company develops
The trillion-dollar market cap club is currently dominated by the tech sector. But will two traditional retail giants eventually find themselves among this rarefied crowd? Walmart (NYSE:WMT) and Costco (NASDAQ:COST) still have a ways to go before they approach a trillion dollars. And they remain dwarfed by e-commerce leader Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), which has a $1.6
It’s been an interesting year for enterprise artificial intelligence (AI) company C3.ai (NYSE:AI), to say the least. Even though the market was obsessed with machine learning in 2023, AI stock made big moves in both directions. This is likely to persist in 2024, but if you can handle the ups and downs, then feel free to take
On Dec. 1, I argued that SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) stock was a buy. Mainly, because the market’s near-term concerns about SOFI stock had resulted in shares falling to a price that was more-than-reasonable compared to this neobank’s long-term prospects. Soon after laying out the bull case, sentiment for SOFI shifted rapidly. Within weeks, shares surged
Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) stock has been on a tear thus far in December. After making a relatively big move during November it continues its assent. As a result, this AI chip contender has hit a new 52-week high. To many, it may seem as if shares could keep rallying, with the stock re-hitting its
The past 12 months were a rocket ride for Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock. Shares doubled in value as the Magnificent 7 component helped set the pace for the gains realized by the entire S&P 500 index. Unfortunately, next year isn’t shaping up to be quite as magnificent. Instead, it’s going to be more like 2022 for
To borrow an old but pertinent Benjamin Graham/Warren Buffett concept, investors should be fearful when others are greedy. That’s a tough principle to apply with Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock because it’s a good, solid company. Yet, even this stock can’t just keep going up without a downward retracement, so caution is advised. This will have important implications
