Recently a number of reports emerged, including a Jan. 5 article in Barron’s magazine, that Charlie Munger has “doubled down” into shares of Alibaba Group Holding (NYSE:BABA). In the past, I have written why BABA stock looks cheap. But I wanted to write about why he might see Alibaba as a worthwhile investment to buy

Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) emerged as one of the biggest stock market winners last year. NVDA stock generated over 120% returns for its investors in the past 12-months. Though its share price has gotten slightly ahead of itself, the chipmakers glowing reports justify its lofty valuation. Moreover, there’s still plenty of upside remaining with Nvidia, with it

Nikola (NASDAQ:NKLA) is making great progress in manufacturing and generating orders for its battery-electric and hydrogen heavy-duty commercial trucks. With businesses and governments seeking to reduce carbon emissions in the U.S. and Europe, Nikola’s status as a first-mover in environmentally friendly semi-trucks should enable it to post great financial results over the longer term. Consequently,

Initially, the coronavirus pandemic sparked fear and uncertainty, with various agencies scrambling to address the mysterious threat. But over the ensuing months turned years, people became acclimated to the new normal. Additionally, the early lockdown and mitigation protocols gave plenty of folks extra time to which they normally wouldn’t be accustomed. That transitioned to speculation,

There seems to be a shift in the market. Speculative growth stocks and cryptocurrency, among other hot 2021 trends, have slumped in recent months. Meanwhile, more defensive stocks such as energy, utilities, industrials and food and beverage companies are rising. Amid these shifting sectoral winds, it’s time to take a look at infrastructure stocks. Infrastructure

Ah, the joys of the content publication stream! During the time that this story about potential entertainment stocks jumping higher due to consumers wanting out of novel coronavirus-related restrictions was initially researched, the omicron variant dominated headlines. But recently, infectious disease experts identified a new variant in France. Are we on the verge of yet

I hypothesize that retail investors don’t spend much time considering country-specific exchange traded funds (ETFs) to buy.  I don’t have empirical data to back up this assertion. However, it seems logical that most smaller investors are looking to get more bang for their buck. For example, why buy three or four country-specific emerging markets ETFs

Solar stocks, for the most part, ended 2021 on a weak note. Many investors decided to take money off the table following significant gains seen in alternative energy names. For instance, the Dow Jones U.S. Renewable Energy Equipment Total Stock Market Index was down 24.0% in 2021. Yet, despite the volatility in shares prices of

Robinhood Markets (NASDAQ:HOOD) has had a rough several months. Since Oct. 26, when the company released its third quarter results, HOOD stock has fallen from $39.57 to, as of Jan. 7, $15.75. That represents a decline of just over 60%.

It hasn’t been easy for investors holding Novavax (NASDAQ:NVAX) over the past year. While other coronavirus vaccine contenders have performed very well, NVAX stock has by-and-large traded sideways.

Advanced Micro Devices’ (NASDAQ:AMD) chief executive officer Dr. Lisa Su recently told CNBC that AMD sees “extremely strong” demand for PCs and its semiconductor chips.

Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK-A, NYSE:BRK-B) undoubtedly owns one of the most-followed equity portfolios. People love to watch Warren Buffett stocks.  Don’t believe me? Just wait 45 days after the end of a quarter. The avalanche of media stories revolving around what billionaires buy and sell is legendary. I searched the words “Buffet Nov. 15, 2021” and

Cloudflare (NYSE:NET) proves there’s a price that’s too high, even for a good company in a hot niche. I will admit that I was caught off guard. After watching NET stock continue to rise despite selling at 50 times revenue, I took a small position in December and am down double digits. Source: IgorGolovniov /

Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) had another killer year in 2021. In November, the company reported Q3 earnings that set new records and offered guidance for the fourth quarter that was well above what Wall Street had been expecting.

Last year was a mixed one for Chinese electric vehicle (EV) companies. Even with strong financial performances, stock upsides were capped with regulatory concerns. Additionally, chip shortages broadly impacted EV stock sentiments. However, I believe that Li Auto (NASDAQ:LI) stock is among the top EV stocks to consider for 2022 and beyond. Source: Robert Way

It’s no secret that Palantir (NYSE:PLTR) stock had a tough year in the markets. When the dust finally settled, PLTR shares had fallen by 20% over the course of 2021.

Semiconductor firms remain as important as ever. Investors have come to realize that names like Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) and AMD stock represent a vitally important industry. Throughout the pandemic, we’ve learned the importance of semiconductors — and how their supply can have serious effects on the economy. Source: flowgraph / Shutterstock.com That aside, though,

Upstart (NASDAQ:UPST) has tumbled over the last few weeks. Meanwhile, as UPST stock has fallen, the macro picture for growth stocks has improved.

Consequently, I recommend that long-term investors buy shares of Upstart

Facebook Inc. did more than a simple name change when it took on the Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:FB) moniker. It also put an emerging trend (the metaverse) on the map. Doing so didn’t give FB stock much of a boost. Source: Blue Planet Studio / Shutterstock.com It did help spark enthusiasm for several more speculative cryptos and stocks, as

If the opinion of the analyst community means anything, then SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) is a strong buy for 2022.
