Battery stocks fuel the green tech revolution, heralding an investment gold rush. They serve as the energy backbone for everything from vehicles to homes and offices while playing a critical in advancing the fast-growing electric vehicle (EV) sector. Consequently, battery technology has become a crucial element in modern investment strategy, positioning itself as a critical

The robotaxi industry looks like it has more legs than the electric vehicle (EV) market at this point. Where EV sales are falling and the companies producing them are in decline or failing, the electric vertical take and landing (eVTOL) industry is ramping up. Joby Aviation (NYSE:JOBY) looks every bit the industry leader it is.

There’s no question Warren Buffett has a love affair with Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL). The billionaire investor built up a position in the tech giant that allowed AAPL stock to account for almost half of Berkshire Hathaway‘s (NYSE:BRK-A)(NYSE:BRK-B) portfolio value. And then Buffett did this. He sold about 10 million shares worth some $2 billion last quarter.

Don’t look now, but Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) CEO and co-founder Jensen Huang is the 20th wealthiest person in the world with a net worth of $69.7 billion, up $25.7 billion in 2024 due to the 64% year-to-date return of NVDA stock. Except for Mark Zuckerberg, Huang’s increase in 2024 is the second highest, $4.5 billion ahead

Global sales of fully electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs) rose as much as 31% in 2023, although this growth rate marked a slowdown compared to the robust 60% surge witnessed in 2022, according to Reuters, citing the data from Rho Motion. Hence, many investors still consider EV stocks as a compelling investment opportunity, especially

Earnings season for the fourth quarter of calendar 2023 is coming to a close. Clear winners and losers are emerging from the reports. The stocks behind them react dramatically to the results and investor portfolios get violently jostled by the prints. While Wall Street and Main Street were surprised by many of the reports, overall

There are lots of overextended stocks out there falling short thanks to dividend payments that are too good to be true. The internationally known pharmaceutical company Bayer (OTCMKTS:BAYRY) is a great example of this as the company recently announced a 95% dividend cut on Feb. 20. It plans to pay the legal minimum of 0.11

Most small-cap stocks are still in a bear market. When a rising tide does not lift all boats, everybody drowns. We have never seen anything like this “new bull market” before in history, where the top names in the S&P 500 are so disproportionately driving total returns, while most stocks are nowhere near their 2021

BlackRock (NYSE:BLK) stocks stand as a towering testament to market influence and financial prowess. Leading the financial stage as the largest asset manager on a global scale, BlackRock boasts a whopping $10 trillion in assets under management at the end of the fourth quarter (Q4) last year. The financial behemoth serves various clients, from institutional

Some people like to copy the portfolio of legendary investor and Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK-A) (NYSE:BRK-B). However, I encourage everyone to think for themselves. Buffett’s portfolio may include shares of Mastercard (NYSE:MA). Nevertheless, a thorough MA stock analysis will reveal that the shares aren’t necessarily a great value right now. And by the way, Mastercard isn’t ideal

Investors have been waiting for renewable energy stocks to live up to their potential. After being beaten down in 2023, many investors are hopeful that 2024 will be a better year. No matter where you stand on the viability of renewable energy sources, they will be part of the mix going forward. And with the

You don’t need a deep Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock analysis to tell you it’s the worst-performing stock of the Magnificent Seven in 2024 so far. The EV maker has different issues than those confronting rival Rivian (NASDAQ:RIVN), which just reported terrible earnings that sent its stock careening lower. But the general EV market malaise is heavy

Romantic comedies seem to be a dying breed of film. Last year, rom-coms, as the movies are known, grossed a total of $86 million at the global box office. That was down from $310 million in 2018 and $835 million in 1999. Studios appear to making fewer rom-coms these days, opting instead for low-budget horror

I like tracking Home Depot (NYSE:HD) stock given just how important housing is to the broader economy (and I like that they sell lumber!). That’s why its fourth-quarter earnings report is particularly interesting. Home Depot reported a decline in same-store sales of 3.5% in the fourth quarter of 2023, with a notable 4% decrease observed

Earnings season for the fourth and final quarter of 2023 is drawing to a close, with many big names having already reported. Earnings season has been strong so far. In fact Q4 has proven to be the strongest quarter of 2023. With 79% of companies in the S&P 500 index having reported their financial results,

Since the late 1970s, when the former options trader and arbitrageur moved into activist investing (then called “corporate raiding”), Carl Icahn has built a multi-billion dollar fortune investing in (and pushing for profitable changes at) undervalued companies. With this track record, it’s no surprise that Wall Street and Main Street investors alike are always curious

Stanley Druckenmiller is a former hedge fund manager and famed investor whose moves are carefully watched on Wall Street. From 1981 to 2010, he ran Duquesne Capital, a hedge fund that had more than $12 billion in assets at the time it was closed. Druckenmiller also managed money for George Soros as the lead portfolio

Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR) initially focused on serving the defense and intelligence sectors but has since expanded its customer base to include various industries such as healthcare, energy, and finance. The company has made impressive strides to improve profitability, and the new AI platform rolled out last year is accelerating top-line growth. As a result, there are

Warren Buffett stocks always spark immense curiosity in the investing world. The Oracle of Omaha’s investment moves are closely watched, with his quarterly filings offering valuable insights. In the latest update, Berkshire Hathaway’s (NYSE:BRK.A,NYSE:BRK.B) 13F filing reveals a quiet fourth quarter marked by more selling than buying. Berkshire Hathaway, known for its wide-moat investment approach, reported

Snowflake (NYSE:SNOW) specializes in software for cloud-based data warehousing. Sure, there’s an artificial intelligence connection with Snowflake, but it’s not really an AI company like OpenAI and C3.ai (NYSE:AI) are. My SNOW stock analysis indicates that the shares may be overvalued because of AI-market hype. There’s a critical event coming up for Snowflake which investors need
