Stocks to buy

There are plenty of reasons why investors believe a major recession could be on the horizon. Sticky and persistent inflation has continued to put pressure on low- and middle-income workers. The impressive rate-hiking cycles by the Federal Reserve and other global central banks have attempted to tamp down economic activity to constrain rising prices. These

The search for top growth stocks to buy in 2023 is on. In my case, this list is relatively short, and it includes three names I’m already invested in. When valuations drop as they did in 2022, investors need to ask some pertinent questions. Does this decline suggest poor performance is likely to continue? Can a

If you’re looking for undervalued tech stocks, you’re certainly in luck. The market is saturated with these names. Even with a recovery this year, many tech stocks are still trading at discounted levels. However, things are starting to look up. There is some pressure in the banking sector, but it seems to be contained within regional

Stock market investors have been on a rollercoaster ride over the past year. The Federal Reserve continues to be hawkish in controlling inflation. All while the global economic backdrop is marred by China and the Russia/Ukraine War. Therefore, investing in defensive investment options, such as the best healthcare stocks to buy, is perhaps a more

After many years of being cast aside, oil stocks came roaring back in a world rocked by inflation and geopolitical uncertainty. Unfortunately, those same oil stocks started off 2023 on the wrong foot. All with oil prices slumping on fears of a potential recession and ensuing slowdown in global demand. In addition, recent problems in the

Although it’s typically a good thing to be an optimist, having a realistic framework may allow you to think clearly about the best stocks to buy after the market crashes. Of course, it’s impossible to tell if the market will really crash or not. However, with the recent failures of two major financial institutions, it

Although passive income has always been a strong component of a well-balanced portfolio, investors may want to pay particular attention to high-yield dividend stocks to buy. Should the Federal Reserve continue to move forward with its interest rate hikes, bond yields will rise. In turn, securities that can’t keep pace with a higher dividend yield

Editor’s note: “Breakthrough Tech’s Kickstarting the $11 Trillion Hydrogen Revolution” was previously published in May 2022. It has since been updated to include the most relevant information available. The world’s energy industry needs to change. And frankly, whatever firm figures out how to best execute this change will become the world’s most valuable company. I

Investors tend to seek growth when allocating capital, particularly when considering what bonds yield right now. Accordingly, many emerging markets stocks are seeing an uptick in investor interest, given the growth rates of these markets relative to the developed world. Accordingly, influential institutions, including BlackRock, agree that there are legitimate reasons to invest in emerging markets

If you are looking to tap into a new source of funds for retirement, then real estate investment trusts (REITs) are a popular way to build a reliable passive income stream. REITs generate cash flow through rent or sales, and legally must pass on the majority of their profits to shareholders as dividends. The difficult

This year the National Institutes of Health is set to request its biggest budget yet for 2024, on the heels of its previous biggest budget in 2023. As the COVID-19 pandemic fades from view, labs will switch back to other avenues of research, often funded by the NIH. This higher level of funding, coming on

The wavering market is setting up potential breakout stocks for savvy investors. The S&P 500 exchange-traded fund (NYSE:SPY) retreated from its Feb. 2023 peak to gain only 1.98% for the year-to-date. The lack of direction sent the less followed stocks to close near a 52-week low. Cautious investors may take a while before they realize

The headlines are still buzzing about the implosion of SVB Financial (NASDAQ:SIVB) and its subsidiary, Silicon Valley Bank. Does this mean investors should steer clear of app-based bank SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) stock? Despite the market’s anxiety about the banking sector, at least one insider is buying SOFI stock. You can choose to keep SoFi on your radar

While it’s always a good idea to balance your portfolio with defensive stocks, the present chaos dramatically incentivizes this subsegment. As you’ve no doubt heard, the U.S. and the rest of the world presently reel from two major banks failing. Moreover, the main concern centers on the contagion spreading to other components of the global

McKinsey estimates that the cloud adoption by Forbes Global 2000 companies could generate $3 trillion in EBITDA by 2030. That’s a big reason investors should consider the best cloud computing ETFs to buy.  Sure, you could bet on Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) to win the cloud computing race, and you’d probably do just fine. However, you’re exposing

With rising fears of a market meltdown stemming from the fallout in the banking sector, boring stocks to buy make plenty of sense. By boring, we’re not necessarily talking about the adjective in the literal sense. Rather, the focus centers on the resilience and most importantly predictability of the underlying businesses. Think about the everyday

With market anxieties rising to the forefront, investors inherently seek protection, which bodes well for gold stocks to buy. To be fair, the yellow metal historically garnered criticism because, at the end of the day, it’s just a commodity. Gold doesn’t hire workers, it doesn’t generate earnings and most importantly, it has a yield (passive

In the ever-evolving equities market landscape, it’s fascinating to witness the fickle nature of investor sentiment. This is evidenced by the fact that some of the best-performing growth stocks in 2021 plummeted last year to multi-year lows. Moreover, the earnings revision added further fuel to the fire. Nevertheless, it offers a unique opportunity for savvy

The emergence of generative AI platforms like ChatGPT already has far-reaching implications for society and the economy. But this sector is already crowded. In addition to all the publicly traded companies in this sector, thousands of private companies are in the business of AI. That gives investors a lot to think about when they look

According to JPMorgan, “Value investing is about picking stocks based on their potential long-term value,” and “Value investors are looking to buy stocks that are overlooked by other investors.” With concerns about the economy being way overdone at this point and fears on the Street, in general, running relatively high, there are many value stocks
