Stocks to buy

Editor’s note: “Quantum Computing Stocks Offer Life-Changing Wealth Potential for Long-Term Investors” was previously published in January 2023. It has since been updated to include the most relevant information available. As a long-term investor during periods of market volatility like we’re seeing today, there’s one thing I always do.  I zoom out to look at

Investing in dividend stocks is a preferred method for those looking to enjoy a passive income stream in retirement. Of course, there’s plenty of market uncertainty right now that could dissuade investors from this group. That said, there’s always pockets of the market with strong fundamentals, and I think certain dividend stocks can still provide

Clean energy stocks are expected to see continued growth. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, U.S. power generation from new renewables (primarily wind and solar) is expected to reduce coal and natural gas-fired energy production through 2024 at least. This pivot away from fossil fuel energy is a strong signal to investors that clean

For investors that have the patience to ride out volatility in exchange for possible long-term upside, value stocks to buy that are discounted against book value may offer considerable intrigue. On paper, book value represents the difference between the company’s total assets and total liabilities. Therefore, if a company trades at a discount to book

With the world trying to reach net zero carbon emissions, carbon capture stocks have taken center stage. Not only that, the Biden Administration has already pledged $3.7 billion to help kickstart the industry and achieve climate objectives. However, in order to achieve those objectives, carbon capture will need to be prove itself profitable. Without profit,

Investors are always looking to tap into lucrative long-term market opportunities to build wealth over time. Perhaps one of the most exciting trends has been the metaverse, which catapulted to fame following Facebook’s much-talked-about name change to Meta in late 2021. Following the announcement, the investing world started scouting the market for some of the

The International Energy Agency (IEA) estimates that by 2025, 35% of the world’s electricity supply will be renewable energy. If that’s not a reason to consider renewable energy stocks to buy, I don’t know what is.  In fact, according to the IEA, most of the increased demand for electricity over the next three years will

While penny stocks almost always attract investors’ attention at some point, they’re also wildly unpredictable and risky. Yes, some people do enjoy lifechanging profitability. But listening to these stories only and not considering the myriad failures that surround this space represents a critical consequence of survivorship bias. Still, the reality is that people will gravitate

After a brutal 2022, we’ve seen a resurgence in tech stocks so far in 2023. Many stocks in this group have climbed 50% or more so far to start the year. While those types of gains in such a short span seem unsustainable, they do have investors looking for growth stocks to buy and hold.

Let’s start by stating the obvious – the recent banking meltdown certainly isn’t a positive for investors. When SVB Financial (NADSAQ:SIVB) and other banks failed, investors confidence in the financial sector has taken a hit. Accordingly, while a buying opportunity has been created in specific companies, serious concerns remain. That said, I’m in the camp that

Financial stocks have tanked in the aftermath of the recent banking crisis, and SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) stock has been among them. When fear, uncertainty, and doubt (or FUD) about bank stocks took hold in early March, following the collapse of SVB Financial’s (NASDAQ:SIVB) Silicon Valley Bank, SOFI stock experienced a sharp slide in price. However,

Many people find investing in the stock market intimidating, given the sheer number of possibilities, and no assurance of return. Of course, there are plenty of money manager out there, willing to help individuals along, for a price. Warren Buffett is among the best investors of all time, providing access to a conglomerate of world-class

Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) is more than a graphics processing unit maker for video game consoles. The company is also deeply involved in the artificial intelligence space. Even if you believe that NVDA stock has gone too high and can’t keep going, think again. A fresh upgrade indicates that Nvidia’s shareholders may enjoy more gains before the year is

CRISPR could revolutionize the way we treat thousands of diseases. Currently, there are about 7,000 caused by genetic disorders, which occur when a mutation affects your genes, or when you have the wrong amount of genetic material, as noted by the Cleveland Clinic. Fortunately, CRISPR, or clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats, can potentially treat all

For this column, I will define “hot gaming stocks” as companies in the gambling and video-game sectors that have positive momentum. In the U.S., gambling stocks are generally poised to generate strong results. That’s because America’s gambling hub — Las Vegas — is thriving in every possible way, while online sports betting is also jumping

The Fourth Industrial Revolution refers to the use of multiple advanced technologies, including “artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, [and] the Internet of Things (IoT).” Also in the mix are “faster computer processing,” “biotechnology,” and “Energy capture, storage, and transmission,” Salesforce reported. I’m upbeat about all of those technologies, and I advise investors to find tech stocks to buy

Demand for electric vehicles. There are plenty of factors driving this demand, which has led to surging valuations among top EV stocks. However, it’s clear that governments and investors are focused on electrification as a key toward creating a greener and cleaner future. While Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) is a leader in the industry and already enjoys a first-mover advantage,

Growing demand for renewable energy, supported by global government initiatives, is creating a potential multi-trillion-dollar opportunity for hydrogen stocks. Or, what many are calling the “fuel of the future.” Remember that analysts at Bank of America (NYSE:BAC) say green hydrogen could be worth more than $11 trillion by 2050. Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) sees a potential $11 trillion hydrogen opportunity, too. The International

All through 2022, turmoil was dominating the stock market. While the bear market engulfed tech stocks (cybersecurity stocks included), business for these firms never really slowed down. In fact, it’s been very steady. That’s got me wondering what cybersecurity stocks to buy right now. The thing about cyber criminals that investors need to keep in mind – they’re

What if there was a “miracle drug” out there that could entirely eradicate mental illness?  I’m talking gut-wrenching and tough-to-treat diseases like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, substance abuse, and more.  Those illnesses are a serious problem. Nearly 1 billion suffer from a mental illness at any given time. That’s over 10% of the
