Stocks to buy

If this year’s market volatility has you feeling uneasy, you’re not alone. The overvaluation of many tech stocks has created a challenging environment, but plenty of affordable, undervalued blue-chip stocks can provide the stability your portfolio needs. In the current market rally, stocks have surged, plummeted and surged again, leading investors to favor small-cap, tech

Investors always praise compounder-type stocks, which are known for their proven ability to exponentially grow wealth over time. These companies usually achieve a high return on capital invested (ROCE) and return on equity (ROE). By reinvesting the majority of their earnings to generate further high returns on investment, these enterprises can compound their financials at

The easiest way to build wealth is to start sooner rather than later. If you wait until you accumulate a large amount of money, you could end up waiting forever. Even if you start with just $50, there are several stocks that can double this amount in two years. While there are no guarantees in

The initial public offering activity in the U.S. hit a two-year high in the second quarter of 2024. During the quarter, there were 39 IPOs with $8.9 billion being raised. With the market sentiment remaining positive, companies are looking to take advantage and raise funds for growth. From the perspective of investors, it’s a good

When you’re still years away from retirement, you want to ramp up your portfolio to target growth-oriented enterprises. At the same time, there’s a lot of comfort and confidence in so-called cash cows. These enterprises enjoy a range of attributes, from low volatility, high consistency and dominance in their chosen markets. As a result, blue-chip

I believe investors should consider keeping a good chunk of their portfolios invested in blue-chip cash cow stocks. Companies that have robust margins and a long history of positive cash flow are unlikely to disappoint you in the long-run. Even in the worst-case scenario, these businesses have a huge liquidity buffer and a margin buffer

With the S&P 500 valued at 24.05x its trailing 12-month earnings and 22.27x the 12-month forward estimate, it’s not easy to find bargain blue-chip stocks. Especially, when you consider that its trailing 12-month P/E ratio a year ago was 19.61x, 18% cheaper than it is today.  While most people consider the S&P 500 to be

Buying growth stocks and holding onto them for many years can result in significant gains. Some people reach their financial goals much sooner by investing in the right stocks. Even if a stock experiences modest gains, your portfolio is still moving in the right direction. While the stock market doesn’t offer any guarantees, a few patterns emerge. Corporations with rising

For a while now, AI has been taking the world by storm. It’s become the hottest sector on Wall Street, consumed most media headlines and dominated as the topic of conversation.  And after reporting the results of its quarterly executive survey on artificial intelligence, Bain & Company – one of the world’s largest consulting firms

Savvy investors must own safe haven stocks that provide stability and growth potential in an unstable economic environment. Recognizing which companies can withstand market declines becomes critical as investors brace for possible adjustments. The emphasis is on solid equities expected to perform well even during uncertain times. Every business, from industry titans known for their

Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) has more skin in the AI game than many people would like to think. Of course, the first thing that would spring to mind is the company’s AWS cloud division. But it’s important to also remember that Amazon has invested $4 billion into a company called Anthropic. Anthropic was founded by former members

Low-priced stocks with upside are increasingly hard to find as top-performing mega-caps edge ever closer to overvaluation. As seen with Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) recently, even moderate underperformance can be devastating when much of the wider market hinges on continued momentum. At the same time, many are increasingly nervous as economic conditions don’t seem as rosy as

In less than two weeks, Broadcom (NASDAQ:AVGO) will split its stock by a 10-to-1 ratio. Shares that currently trade for more than $1,600 each will each be worth about $160 a stub.  A stock split changes nothing about a company. An investor could either buy Broadcom stock before or after the division and he would

As far as stocks with turnaround potential are concerned, SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) remains a top option on my watch list right now. Sofi stock looks good from here. The company provides a revolutionary digital finance platform, catering to millions of users seeking seamless banking solutions. Originally a lending specialist focused on student loans, SoFi now

With all the artificial intelligence-related (AI) fervor, several tech stocks were offloaded by both retail and institutional investors. These oversold tech stocks then became somewhat overlooked by the majority of media outlets due to their lack of exciting progress toward an AI-centric goal. However, that does not mean they’re bad investments. Rather, they simply are

The third quarter is shaping into a pivotal period for the stock market. Economic indicators suggest a potential upswing, with inflation slowly coming down to the Fed’s 2% target range.  This makes the case for stocks set to surge as a myriad of companies stand out to emerge as potential winners. Amidst all the uncertainty,

Qualcomm (NASDAQ:QCOM) stock has surged 53% this year as interest in edge AI grew. With a relatively low price-earnings ratio of 27-times, Qualcomm is positioned to continue to move higher. That’s despite a recent 5% drop because of software and gaming issues on Snapdragon-powered AI PCs. Qualcomm remains pivotal in the AI hardware sector. A semiconductor

The growth of artificial intelligence is a rising tide that raises all ships. This is evident when looking at one-year growth of companies such as Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT), Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) and Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA), through a historic AI bull run that we are still in. Technology that helps corporations automate and make day-to-day tasks more efficient

Though Reddit (NYSE:RDDT) may have been the most recent big-name IPO, the initial listings market is still cooking, and undervalued IPO stocks abound. The last undervalued IPO stock I picked at the beginning of June, Nano Nuclear Energy (NASDAQ:NNE), returned over 300% since I first noticed it, further proving that undervalued IPO stocks are out

In March, a CNBC article suggested that the electric vehicle (EV) euphoria is dead. The piece reported facts that indicated that many automotive majors are scaling back their EV plans. I completed agree with the point that the euphoria is dead. However, it’s equally important to understand that the industry is not dead. EV adoption
