Stocks to buy

Tom Yeung here with this week’s Sunday Digest.   In 2022, commodity stocks were in trouble.   The U.S. had just posted two quarterly GDP declines — a first since the COVID-19 recession — and people were forecasting even more trouble. Shares of economically sensitive companies like copper miner Freeport–McMoRan Inc. (FCX) fell as much as 50%.  Yet,

This past week was a very important one for the stock market. With the arrival of several different economic reports, investors learned how inflation is trending in the U.S. economy.  Those reports were largely soft, suggesting inflation is on a much better path than expected. In response, the market is having a fantastic week, with

For the past few months, quantum computing stocks have been on a wild roller coaster ride. We have seen top investments like IonQ (IONQ), Quantum Computing (QUBT), D-Wave Quantum (QBTS), and Rigetti (RGTI) gain hundreds of percent within a few months only to plummet 50%-plus in a matter of days. In fact, they’ve been known

Phew! After a near-agonizing wait, December’s all-important Consumer Price Index (CPI) report hit the tape this morning – and it was softer than expected. With that data pointing toward easing inflation pressures, stocks got the fuel they needed to begin ripping higher.  Of course, some market pundits will call this rally a “head fake” or

Welcome to “make-or-break” week for the stock market, where we will learn whether stocks are going to soar over the next month … or crash. Fortunately, this should be a good week for stocks, kicking off the market’s huge rebound rally. That means the next few days could present us with some great buying opportunities.

As the artificial intelligence boom has picked up steam over the past few years, firms like Nvidia (NVDA), Microsoft (MSFT), and Meta (META) have notched some astronomical gains. And many investors are left kicking themselves for ‘missing out’ on the AI revolution.  But did you know that the biggest gains in this boom are likely

Tom Yeung here with your Sunday Digest.  When I started my career years ago in corporate finance, I quickly realized that December was always a time of big spending for us.   Departments at my employer rushed to buy what they needed because our comptroller had an old-fashioned “use it or lose it” mentality. Department

After December’s red-hot jobs report reignited inflation fears – and suggested that the Federal Reserve may not cut rates again for a while – the stock market has been left reeling. In our view, this latest data is an unequivocal warning sign for market bulls. It seems stocks are not going to have a smooth

I am bullish on stocks for 2025. In fact, I recently issued my 10 big market predictions for this new year. And one of those projections is that the S&P 500 will rise more than 20% in ‘25 to notch its third consecutive year of 20%-plus gains.  But, even as a bull, I recognize that

When it comes to winning in the stock market, we’ve found that a particular tried-and-true process yields the strongest results: Identify unstoppable investment megatrends that will redefine how the world works. Within those megatrends, find the most relentlessly innovative companies that will dominate at scale.  Of those innovative leaders, identify those with the most hyperscalable

Tom Yeung here with your Sunday Digest.  In 1909, a young physics graduate student proposed building a magnetically levitated train inside a vacuum tube.   Not only would magnetic forces propel the train forward… but the lack of friction between car and rail meant momentum would be enough to keep a “maglev” train in near-perpetual

It’s that time of year again where stock market forecasters like myself dust off their crystal balls and make predictions about the year ahead.  Last year, I made 10 big predictions about the stock market for 2024 – and, pretty amazingly, most of them ended up being spot-on! I said the S&P 500 would rally

As we keep on racing toward the new year, most investors are busy looking for the best stocks to buy for 2025.  There has been a lot of talk about AI stocks continuing to lead this market rally higher. Energy stocks seem to be a popular choice with the incoming administration. A lot of investors

In 1990, Tim Berners Lee invented the World Wide Web, but the internet’s true “Day One” arrived five years later when Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN) made its first online sale, catapulting the disruptive technology into global consciousness. Likewise, while the first BlackBerry Ltd. (BB) smartphone was released in 1999, that technology’s Day One came eight years

It looks like the U.S. Federal Reserve decided to play the part of the Grinch today, pouring cold water on the Street’s ongoing holiday rally with a very hawkish update. And we’ve got one word to describe the day’s price action – ouch!  In short, while the Fed did cut interest rates today, its December

November’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) report arrived yesterday – and it was just what stocks needed to continue rallying.  That is, this most recent batch of data showed that inflation continued to run as expected last month. In response, the stock market soared, and odds for a December rate cut popped to 99%. It seems

I don’t know about you, but as someone heavily involved in stock analysis on a regular basis, I often feel like there must be a better way to approach the markets. Just imagine how much time you could save if, instead of poring over the details of each individual stock out there, you had a
