Stocks to buy

I have long been skeptical about Rivian (NASDAQ:RIVN) as a company and Rivian stock. The California-based automaker, with an assembly plant in Illinois, is going through an Electric Vehicle version of Death Valley. It needs to stay afloat long enough to build a new plant in Georgia, which it was forced to delay in March.

Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) is a top stock to buy ahead of its fiscal 2024 Q4 earnings call after markets close on July 30. The company demonstrated solid growth across multiple business segments, specifically based on its expanding cloud services and AI  advancements. The company’s growth trajectory has a solid record of beating earnings per share estimates. 

Electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft manufacturer Joby Aviation (NYSE:JOBY) gained altitude recently after obtaining a new certification from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). It moves the eVTOL leader one step closer to its goal of commercializing its business next year. Although it is helping to create an entirely new industry from the ground

Despite a recent price drop, SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) remains a top fintech stock. The company is expected to report its Q2 earnings on July 30 before market open, with all eyes on how the company’s overall revenue growth will continue. Indeed, the company’s Q1 numbers were stellar, with overall revenue surging 26% amid impressive 54%

Long-term stocks are, by definition, stocks that investors plan to hold for a year or longer. Owning these stocks allows investors to ignore the daily ups and downs of the market. These are known as sleep-at-night stocks, and they never go out of style.   That strategy was put to the test in the last

Social media stocks have been pulled lower by the rotation out of technology securities. However, social media remains a force both in society and the market. Today, nearly five billion people use social media sites — 60% of the world’s population. For many people, social media is not only how they connect with other people

Investors have many reasons for investing in plant-based food stocks. Whether they have a personal penchant for socially responsible investing or are just looking to make some cold hard cash in a burgeoning industry, there are many companies to consider.  But there are also a lot of ups and downs in the vegan-friendly and plant-based

It’s perfectly understandable if you’re champing at the bit to “buy the dip” with Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD). With the company just weeks away from its next quarterly earnings release, well-received results and guidance could lead to a big rebound for AMD stock. However, speculating on a well-received quarterly earnings release for the AI chip

Wall Street has rewarded certain growth stocks handsomely this year. I believe now may be an opportune time to buy some of these high-flyers, even after the recent tech selloff. Most of the stocks I’ll be discussing today are outside the tech sector. I think they have a great chance to continue their upward trajectory.

Restaurant stocks have been hit rather hard in this inflationary climate. Thanks to customers’ resistance to higher prices, the pricing power of various fast-food firms has proven somewhat limited recently. However, I do think waning inflationary pressures and price rollbacks could help the quick-serve restaurant and fast-food firms stage a much-awaited comeback. Sure, some restaurants

The 2024 election is shaping up to be the wildest in recent history. In just one month, the American people have witnessed an assassination attempt on one candidate and the dropping out of the other. Yet, the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump earlier this month and the announcement of President Joe Biden dropping

The Russell 2000 index tracks the performance of small-to-mid capitalization stocks. If anyone has been watching this captivating index, they would have seen a stark divergence between small-to-mid-cap and large-cap returns. As an example, the Russell 2000 rose 5.2% in the first quarter, yet the S&P500 and the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite had rallied 10.2% and

Considering the number of businesses using drone deliveries after successful use cases surfaced during the COVID-19 epidemic, drone delivery stocks are climbing up the ladder of investment choices. In 2022, drones brought around 80% more goods than in 2021, totaling nearly 875,000 deliveries around the globe. Given that the technology behind the idea is improving,

It’s not just big tech stocks that have experienced a pullback lately. Many other highly-followed stocks have as well, including some of blue-chip stocks. Blue-chips may be known for their consistency and perceived lower levels of risks, but many investors have in recent months become fairly cautious about many names in this category. In some

Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) got caught up in the volatility of the hailstorm hitting the semiconductor market these past few weeks. And though this double-digit percent plunge off recent highs will probably end up nothing more than a blip in the one-year chart next summer, investors who are overly anxious about buying on weakness may wish to

As investors rotate out of technology stocks, small-cap stocks may be their destination. The sector has lagged far behind its larger peers and offers up undervalued opportunities. The S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average routinely hit new all-time highs. But the Russell 2000 small-cap stock index still sits 8% below its record set

The Global X Solar ETF (NASDAQ:RAYS) has slumped by more than 40% year-over-year (YOY), illustrating that investors have abandoned solar stocks. However, as an incurable contrarian, I believe the RAYS ETF’s downturn signals a buying opportunity within the solar industry. What’s my premise for the abovementioned claim? Well, the solar industry is forecasted to grow

The stock market appears to be entering a major rotation. Over the past week, the largest tech and momentum stocks have started selling off. In particular, firms related to semiconductors and AI have seen their share prices plunge. This could be normal profit-taking after the massive run-up over the past year. There are also concerns

Betting on the top hidden gem stocks could potentially take your investment portfolio to the next level. In a year dominated by a handful of tech giants, broadening your portfolio to include high-potential stocks becomes imperative. These stocks have flown under-the-radar, but are positioned for substantial gains ahead of a broader market rally expected later

With stock market volatility returning for the hottest days of summer, investors may be pondering whether it’s too late to rotate into some of the still-cheap growth stocks. Especially those that didn’t really participate in the first-half market rally. The mid-cap surge came fast and furiously. Though the cap rotation may still have a ways
