Stocks to buy

Prior to 2020, arguably the general political consensus was that former President Donald Trump would easily win reelection. Though he has always had rough edges that made him a polarizing figure, President Trump got things done. In turn, his no-nonsense approach to high-level negotiations represented a narrative boon for infrastructure stocks, what with the America

A pharmaceutical play, Novavax (NASDAQ:NVAX) has been on the move. In fact, NVAX stock has risen nearly three times higher since November of last year.

However, despite the price appreciation, I believe there is still plenty of upside

The bull market on Wall Street has been going on for at least eight years. Late last week equities hit a small snag, and sellers stepped in early everyday and ruined a perfectly strong open. Even before Wednesday’s pop, they were still 2% away from the all time highs. Therefore, investors should be looking for

Sofi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) has been incredibly volatile over the last few months. In May, SOFI stock bottomed along with most other high-growth stocks. That was as the group’s bear market came to an end.  Source: rafapress / Shutterstock.com Soon after, shares erupted, nearly hitting $25 and for a moment climbing more than 75% from the

Backed by billionaire Bill Ackman, Pershing Square Tontine (NYSE:PSTH) may have been one of the hottest special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) earlier this year. However, after what played out last month, that’s certainly no longer the case. As fellow InvestorPlace contributor Ian Bezek recently wrote, this name’s deal to purchase a stake in Universal Music

Just because we hit retirement, doesn’t mean we’re making a total shift to bonds. There are still stocks to buy that are both interesting and profitable. But more times than not, investors at that stage are looking for some income. That involves a lot more than just screening dividend stocks and sorting by yield. Investors

Ride the rising tide is the prevailing theory behind investing in momentum stocks. It’s essentially the polar opposite of buy low, sell high investing. Moreover, one of the advantageous aspects of momentum investing is that it works best in bull markets. Investors tend to herd in to a higher degree in bull markets. Fortunately for

Rejection can be painful, especially if you’re a longtime investor in Canadian cannabis company Sundial Growers (NASDAQ:SNDL). Time and again, SNDL stock has flirted with the key $1 level, but gravity keeps pulling it back down.

Last week was one of the strangest ones I’ve seen in a long while. The mood on Wall Street soured tangibly without any significant evidence of deterioration in price. The indices were still within a half percent of an all-time high, yet the headlines read of corrections. The commentary sounded like we had already dropped

Novavax (NASDAQ:NVAX) released its second-quarter results on Aug. 5 and updated the market on its Covid-19 vaccine progress. Their Covid candidate has performed well in its Phase 3 trials and the company expects to apply for emergency use authorization (EUA) for distribution in the U.S. during Q4. As a result, it looks like NVAX stock

Roku (NASDAQ:ROKU) is still a growth stock, despite the fact that it’s been falling lately. In fact, in my last article on ROKU stock, I wrote that it could end up falling some 20% to 30% from Aug. 11. That was when it was at $369.21. Since then, it has fallen 9%. Source: Michael Vi

Backed against the wall by the rise of Taiwan Semiconductor (NYSE:TSM), Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) is putting all its financial chips (and more) on the line, which has big implications for INTC stock.

While some investors like to manage their portfolios actively, others prefer to buy stocks under $100 for the long term. This means holding onto shares for as long as thirty years, or even forever. However, you can’t hold just any stock indefinitely. Plenty of companies seem like a great bet one year, only to plummet

Casual onlookers may have a hard time digesting the broader implications of the virtual reality sector. Having personally stepped into the realm of digitalized ecosystems, I can tell you the practice takes some getting used to. At the same time, innovation is constantly moving forward, which makes the investment case for virtual reality stocks an

Navigating the markets can be a tough task these days. According to the stock market capitalization to gross domestic product (GDP) ratio, today’s U.S. stock market is 100% overvalued. But even though you can disagree with the extent, most will agree the U.S. stock market is far from cheap at the moment. In these circumstances,

Roku’s (NASDAQ:ROKU) growth outlook remains extremely strong. And that means the recent, unwarranted downturn of ROKU stock has created a great buying opportunity for longer-term investors. Source: Michael Vi / Shutterstock.com Over the last month, the shares have given back 13%. The downturn appears to have been driven by Roku’s weaker-than-expected Q2 user metrics. A

Given the incredible advancements of modern technologies, it’s no surprise that many analysts and investors regard precious metals as barbaric relics that serve little relevance. On some levels, I can appreciate their point. Buying gold stocks might seem like going for a bunt in a baseball game. Let’s face it — people are paying money

After fuboTV (NYSE:FUBO) reported second-quarter earnings this month, I wrote in this space that I continued to have high hopes for FUBO stock.

In this kind of market it’s hard to tell where we’re headed. That’s why sticking with the best large-cap stocks is the best idea for now. Is the economy too hot or is it cooling due to the delta variant? Is there too much money in the system or is there still too much economic

Prior to the meme-trading phenomenon, I supported the contrarian bullish case for cineplex operator AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC). In the many years leading up to the Covid-19 pandemic, streaming companies like Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) had been siphoning market share from the box office. Naturally, this dynamic put intense pressure on AMC stock. Source: QualityHD / Shutterstock.com Nevertheless,
