Stocks to buy

Stocks have been surging recently in an ongoing market rally. Over the past month or so, the S&P 500 has popped more than 5%. And, in fact, the Top 10 stocks portfolio in our Innovation Investor research service has risen about 40%. However, lots of folks are calling this a “bear market rally.” They believe

Over the past eighteen months, integrated oil giant ExxonMobil (NYSE:XOM) has made a stunning recovery. During this timeframe, XOM stock has nearly tripled in price. Largely, of course, due to oil’s strong performance. As you know full well, the pandemic recovery, plus the geopolitical chaos in Eastern Europe, has sent oil back to late 2000s

The current short-term recovery has put the stock market at a crucial point. Many stocks have been devastated by recent selloffs and investors are still split on whether or not the market is in oversold territory yet. While some point to the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) planned interest rate hikes and call for a recession, others

Over many years of investing in and writing about stocks, I’ve developed a method that, I believe, can enable many long-term retail investors to beat the market over the long term. Specifically, identifying names that are drastically undervalued because the market is focusing on negative, relatively unimportant data points is a good way to invest

With the market at sixes and sevens, it probably won’t hurt looking at what stocks the rich are buying and adding to their portfolios. The issue is that information on popular big-time investor stocks is often very conflicting and polarized. Thus, I picked four stocks that are currently popular among the whales of Wall Street.

Investing in blue-chip stocks with dividends is a match made in heaven.

A spate of bad retailer earnings reports caused shares across the sector to crash in the middle of last month. Costco (NASDAQ:COST) was no exception.

Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock finished the last full week of May with a 7% gain. That still leaves AAPL stock down 15.3% in 2022. And as I prepare this article, it’s too early to tell whether the market rally signals the start of a real recover or just a temporary bump before stocks fall even further.

With China easing lockdowns after two months, it is time for manufacturers to resume regular production activity and electric vehicle maker Nio (NYSE:NIO) has been waiting for this for a long time.

These six bargain dividend stocks have dividend yields over 3% and low valuations. That makes these stocks good investments for the value investors.

Wall Street is a volatile place these days. But, while it might not be easy to see, there has never been a better time to invest in the stock market than right now due to the long-term stocks that are available. Sure, it’s hard to predict which stocks will do well in the future. However,

As far as top electric vehicle (EV) stocks go, Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) is the undisputed leader. The capital appreciation upside Tesla has provided since its public listing has been remarkable. In many ways, this EV maker provides the gold standard upon which other EV stocks are evaluated. Unfortunately, there isn’t a real competitor to stack up against

Tech stocks to buy is our topic today. A lot of these names are on sale these days, after growth and tech shares have experienced significant declines during the first half of 2022. For instance, the S&P Technology Select Sector Index has declined 19% year-to-date (YTD), wiping out all the gains made in 2021. Meanwhile,

A sharp selloff has wiped billions of dollars off of valuations in the past few weeks. Growth stocks have been unfairly targeted. Many of these companies offer excellent operating models and great growth potential. Many people believe that the market has grown overly conservative and the only way to make money is to invest in

AAPL stock even managed to avoid the November 2021 selloff that took the wind out of so many tech stocks. In fact, through November and December

The bear market has not been fun for anybody and short of investors who are all-in on energy stocks, almost everyone is down on the year. The S&P 500 has touched the down-20% mark, while the Nasdaq composite has fallen more than 30% from peak to trough. Despite the underwhelming performance, it has investors looking
