The artificial intelligence boom is in its early innings, and companies are rushing to capitalize on the technology. The winners in this industry can reward shareholders with generational gains. While Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) has become the center of the AI boom,
Regardless of whether you’re a Wall Street veteran or new to investing, the past four years have been a roller coaster ride. A global pandemic brought a 14-year-long bull market to a screeching halt.

SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) is a leading online platform that provides a range of financial products and services, such as personal loans, mortgages, student loans, investing, banking and insurance.

In the lead-up to the holiday, the stock market witnesses increased activity as traders position their strategies.

Blue-chip companies are very well established, have an excellent reputation and boast a history of providing investors with consistent returns. Blue-chip stocks are a must for investors because they are some of the most stable companies in the market and typically have lower volatility than other companies with not-so-stellar reputations. They also often give patient investors great
Volatility and a souring macroeconomic outlook have created a lot of downward pressure for tech stocks in recent weeks, investors fearing the high valuations many of them boast are unsustainable as growth prospects dim. Despite the broader pressures, this hasn’t tarnished potential of emerging tech stocks. However, as tech stocks begin to emerge from their
I’m tasked with coming up with three stocks to buy that will supercharge your portfolio. These are companies whose stocks will build wealth over time. Call it patient capital. Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK-A, NYSE:BRK-B) makes the grade. But that’s an obvious choice. To come up with the three names, I’ll use three criteria reflecting quality businesses
U.S. equities markets have faced a lot of volatility in the past few months. Both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq have declined consecutively amid sticky inflation and ongoing geopolitical issues in both Ukraine and the Middle East. Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS) strategist Michael Wilson has warned that a year-end stock rally is unlikely, given the weak
If you’re searching for growth stocks for monthly passive income, look no further. If you are a passive income investor, your favorite investments will continue to remain stocks that pay a monthly dividend. These stocks give a chance to enjoy recurring passive income that can help handle the rising cost of living. They make a
Following the rise in interest rates, many stocks, including shares in large, well-known companies, now sport relatively high dividend yields.

When it comes to using artificial intelligence models to pick winning stocks, I think Bard stands head and shoulders above the rest. While other large language models tend to make more generalized stock recommendations, Bard appears to provide real analysis, digging deeper to identify trendy high-growth companies poised for exponential returns.

While the jury’s still out whether the economy and the market is headed for a soft or hard landing, as interest rates remain high, that doesn’t mean you should forget about which stocks to avoid. Even as it’s possible that recent fears of another downturn for stocks may prove to be an overreaction, there are
Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) has undoubtedly been one of the most debated stocks of 2023, if not the most debated one. That’s largely due to its gargantuan market capitalization exceeding $1 trillion, on sales of just over $13.5 billion in its latest reported quarter. Of course, what matters for a growth stock is not current sales but
You wouldn’t know it from the many negative headlines about the lower-than-expected revenue of Alphabet’s (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL) Google Cloud business last quarter, but advertising accounts for most of the firm’s revenue. And, in line with my previous predictions, the growth of the company’s advertising revenue meaningfully accelerated last quarter as fears about a recession in
Tech stocks have had a bad October, as the Nasdaq Index fell by over 3.89%. Several factors were at play. Just recently, the 10-year treasury yield breached 5%. Fundamentally, this reduces the value of tech stocks because investors get a lot of yield for an asset with no risk. This has led to the emergence
Having largely emerged from the global crisis that was COVID-19, investors might now need to consider ag stocks to mitigate the impact of another brewing calamity: the ongoing disruption in the broader food supply chain. With Russia’s invasion of Ukraine showing no signs of abating, the two major food and food-commodities producers are locked into
Though not the most heartwarming topic, investors will likely do well to at least consider the topic of overvalued stocks to sell. Just from the “gravitational” concept, what goes up eventually comes back down. Even the most storied enterprises face corrective cycles. And there’s no reason to hold onto such securities if you genuinely believe
First things first, how does conversational AI differ from generative AI? It’s conversational and used to facilitate human-like discussions between humans and machines. Generative AI, on the other hand, is leveraged for the creation of content. Still, they are effectively AI stocks in practice. As you might imagine, conversational AI applies to businesses that engage
The stock market has gone into quite a fall swoon. Historically, the stock market has generated some of its worst returns in October, and 2023 proved to be no exception to the rule. And given the difficult economic and geopolitical outlook, the negative momentum could continue or even accelerate in November. As such, this is
Disney (NYSE:DIS) once known as the theme-park king, is reimagining itself as a standout streaming service. The company has an upcoming earnings event, and Disney needs to show vigorous growth in that sector. Otherwise, DIS stock could fall sharply.
