The electric vehicle (EV) charging market happens to be one of the fastest-growing segments in the transportation sector. The increasing adoption of EVs, supportive government policies, and technological advances all drive the transformation of the space. As consumers continue to choose EVs over normal combustion engine cars, these vehicles will require a vast charging network

Growth stocks are back on the menu. The past year saw investors cycle portfolios through fixed-income offerings, dividend stocks, and value stocks in rapid succession. But renewed bullish sentiment, boosted by better-than-expected economic conditions, means investors are looking forward to a rate hike pause (if not outright cut) which bodes well for growth stocks in
Selecting growth stocks presents a challenge when considering factors like disruptive business models and leadership. So, instead of extensive financial analysis, observing the choices of millionaire investors and hedge fund managers offers insights into potential market-beating options. Indeed, these professionals possess substantial research resources and unique insights, making their stock selections noteworthy. And, exploring the
As with every new technological paradigm shift, the AI Boom will evolve in distinct “profit waves.” Though each tech boom is different, they all follow a similar pattern. And it usually goes something like this: First, there’s a rush to build new tech. Then, there’s a rush for new devices that are built with that
High-performing growth stocks, known for substantial year-over-year revenue growth and potential profits, can experience significant declines during market contractions, as witnessed in 2022. Investors aim to construct resilient portfolios that endure economic fluctuations. Amid the current emphasis on high-growth stocks, the significance of defensive dividend stocks for consistent income and stability remains crucial, especially during
Investors look at blue-chip stocks for dividends and capital preservation. However, dividend stocks do not always trend higher. There are years or phases of price or time correction due to temporary industry or company-specific headwinds. For value investors, I see a correction in quality blue-chip stocks as a golden opportunity to accumulate. I am reminded of Charlie Munger’s idea
After stuffing your portfolio with safe, stable stocks, prudent investors should also allocate a small portion to higher-risk, ultra-speculative names. Why? Because while they’re risky, these stocks boast huge upside potential if things break right. I’m not advocating recklessness here, but rather calculated speculation. We all hope to one day pick the next Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN)
Ocean tech stocks are seeing a resurgence recently, as ongoing sustainability concerns shift investor attention towards the open seas. Companies as diverse as wind farming, desalination, shipping, and more all leverage the deep blue sea to improve our global climate impact. But not all ocean tech stocks are created equally. Unfortunately, many small companies exist
In the world of technology, 2023 marks a pivotal year with the rise of artificial intelligence. Particularly, generative AI stands out. It’s revolutionizing industries by enhancing efficiency and reducing costs. Consequently, companies at the forefront of AI are gaining an unparalleled advantage. This shift underscores the appeal of long-term AI stocks as a strategic investment
The explosive rally seen in November shows signs of faltering. As of this writing, the major stock indices have declined for three consecutive days at the start of December and there is no sign of a year-end Santa Claus rally. Could investors end up with a lump of coal in their stockings this year? It’s
Whether you are a bull on the world’s transition to electric vehicles or not, lithium stocks are expected to rise in value significantly over the next few decades. These companies produce crucial elements to keep our electronics powered; thus, lithium’s spot price is expected to rise in step. I’ve researched three lesser-known companies for investors
Investors don’t have to hit a home run with every stock they own. One or two multibaggers can be enough to set one up for life or at least a comfortable retirement. It’s been difficult to find stocks that offer runaway growth since the meme stock rally faded. The days of a stock rising 100%
The best flying car stocks today are air taxi companies driving aggressive strategies. With promises to bring taxis to our cities in the next two or three years, these flying car stocks are set to revolutionize the industry if they can meet their timelines. Not every company will make it, but even one hit could pay dividends
Sustainable stocks continue to get a bad rap from investors. The standard argument against sustainable investing is that it’s not profitable, even when done correctly using all the appropriate screens to exclude companies not adhering to the stringent criteria for sustainable stocks. What are these criteria? It helps first to identify what sustainable investing is
The nationwide rollout of the 5G mobile network three years ago marked a critical moment in telecommunications, ushering in a new era of investment in 5G stocks. This upgrade from 4G LTE to 5G represented a quantum leap in technology, promising download speeds up to 100 times faster. Beyond the buzz of lightning-fast internet, 5G
Quantum computing is an emerging field of computer science that leverages classical physics and mathematics. The field’s promise is simple: to increase the speed with which computers can do calculations. Thus, stocks in the field are highly attractive to investors in this increasingly digitized world. The most important thing to understand here is the idea
As I’ve noted in past columns, data shows that, despite the recent skepticism of the American media towards electric vehicles, EV ownership is continuing to grow rapidly in the U.S. Specifically, U.S. EV sales rose 50% last quarter versus the same period a year earlier, while the sales of Ford’s (NYSE:F) Lightning EV truck soared
Penny stocks are names that are trading under $5 per share. As a result, they’ve typically dropped a great deal over the last year or two. But on the Street, what goes down can easily reoccur. Short sellers often pounce mercilessly on companies with tremendous potential but have hit the proverbial “bump in the road.”
Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) continues to be considered the creme-de-le-creme of AI stocks. The company’s business model, focused on supplying high-performance chips powering the AI revolution, makes this stock one of the pure-play options that’s a no-brainer for growth investors right now. Indeed, while competitors like Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) and other chip makers may challenge Nvidia in this
It’s an understatement to say that Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock knocked it out of the park in 2023. With rising uncertainty, more investors are taking profits, causing this “Magnificent Seven” component to pull back in recent weeks. This price trend could carry on into 2024. Cashing out of Nvidia is trendy, but going against the grain
