Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) established itself as a powerhouse for software companies looking to tap into the exponential growth potential of AI and other high-growth technologies. Even better, year to date, the Nvidia stock has surged this year on strong earnings. In addition, Nvidia’s chips continue to hold a strong market share relative to competitors like Intel (NASDAQ:INTC)

Li Auto (NASDAQ:LI) stock just got a little more complicated. It has won a reputation in China as its best producer of luxury electric vehicles, but its latest model is a hybrid. The company announced the Li 7, a five-seat SUV, February. Li delivered over 10,000 Li 7s in its first month of production. Its

Today, I have potentially good news and bad news concerning SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI). SOFI stock investors can certainly celebrate the U.S. government’s passage of the debt ceiling deal. On the other hand, an upcoming decision from the Federal Reserve might be problematic for SoFi Technologies and its stakeholders. Don’t get the wrong idea here. Overall,

Owning Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) stock was one of the biggest mistakes of 2022. It tossed tens of billions of dollars in developing something it couldn’t even define, “the metaverse.” It’s one of the best deals of 2023, because all that effort is being redirected and called “artificial intelligence.” Shares that were worth nearly $380 each

Since its last earnings release last month, there has been little news out of Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN). With this, there is plenty of speculation regarding what happens next for the company, and for RIVN stock. Based on how the early-stage electric vehicle maker’s shares are performing right now, it’s clear that the market overall holds

If you feel that 2023’s financial-sector crisis has passed, you might be tempted to load up on Goldman Sachs (NYSE:GS) stock. Yet, a top executive at Goldman Sachs recently issued a warning that investors should pay attention to. Along with that, Goldman Sachs’s planned staff reduction suggests that the company’s management might anticipate near-term challenges. Don’t

I was wrong about Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock. I called it overpriced. While it’s a long-term winner, I thought paying 23 times revenue was too much. Nvidia’s first quarter earnings of $2.04 billion, 82 cents per share, and revenue of $7.19 billion, were well ahead of expectations. But what sent NVDA stock up nearly 25% was

Not long ago, I issued a bullish call on Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock. I still like Nvidia’s long-term prospects as a company. However, I don’t recommend investing at any price. My concern is that artificial intelligence (AI) hype has distorted Nvidia’s valuation, so a share price pullback may be due. There are growth stocks in 2023, and

While uncertainty looms large, long-term investors have an opportunity within some high-growth sectors in the stock market. The headlines are dominated by the impact of inflation and interest rates, which will likely cause some volatility in the near term. But zooming out further, there are plenty of opportunities for growth. In some cases, outsized growth.

Electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) certainly uses artificial intelligence (AI) to its advantage. However, this doesn’t automatically mean TSLA stock should be classified as an AI stock. Nevertheless, Tesla’s loyal investors can remain optimistic about the future prospects of the company and the stock. On May 12, I declared, “It’s definitely not too late to

Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) has seen incredible growth following its earnings report on May 24, with Nvidia stock surging around 30% in roughly one week. However, prior to this announcement, Nvidia has remained on a tear. On a year-to-date basis, this is a stock that’s surged approximately 175%, nearly tripling in short order. What’s truly incredible about

The term “magnificent 7 stocks” refers to leading tech firms that are propping up the market as AI mania holds strong. The group of ultra-high market capitalization companies continues to receive strong capital investment on those AI tailwinds and forward hopes.  Bullish investors are likely to continue to pile money into those shares. The overarching

Following the trades of highly respected investors can be not only fun but also profitable. In the case of Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) stock, a living legend in the world of finance reportedly took a stake in the e-commerce giant. I’d say this was a smart move, and there are reasons to consider starting your own share

After a powerful rally in 2023 so far, Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) stock could be due for a pullback. The shares appear to be over-valued, and conflict with regulators in multiple regions of the world will likely be problematic for Meta Platforms. Meta Platforms CEO Mark Zuckerberg declared that 2023 will be a “year of efficiency” for

When it comes to stock investing, learning should come before buying, not the other way around. Unfortunately, some financial traders are jumping headlong into C3.ai (NYSE:AI) stock because they’ve been told that artificial intelligence is a red-hot trend now. It’s fine to own a moderately sized share position in C3.ai if that’s what you want to

Rivian (NASDAQ:RIVN) stock has been on a relatively wacky ride of late. Amid a bolstered production outlook, investors bid up RIVN stock to fresh monthly highs last week.

There are a couple of ways to invest in global movie-theater chain AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC). You could buy AMC stock, or you could own AMC Preferred Equity Units (NYSE:APE).

Rivian (NASDAQ:RIVN), a major competitor to Tesla, has struggled to share positive updates for the past year and a half. Like many other aspiring automakers, its biggest challenge has been increasing production rates. This hurdle is crucial for transitioning from a startup to a mass car producer, and it is a crucial step for the

It’s not difficult to find worrisome news about electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Nikola (NASDAQ:NKLA). The real challenge would be to identify reasons to buy NKLA stock. Yet, it’s actually possible to build a bull case — and if you have a strong tolerance for risk, you might even end up investing in Nikola today. Suffice

Even though Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) stock is up sharply year-to-date, investors need to be careful now. Meta Platforms’ latest layoffs could be a sign of trouble. Also, Meta Platforms will have to pay a high price for failing to abide by data-privacy rules in the United Kingdom. Meta Platforms is involved in multiple different technology fields

AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC) stock is among the meme stocks investors continue to home in on. Like many beaten-down retail names, AMC faced financial hardship due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, it was saved from bankruptcy by individual investors who turned its shares into meme stocks. To improve its financial situation, AMC has pursued various fundraising

No matter how you slice it, Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) stock has been a winner in 2023 so far. Some financial traders might have valuation-related concerns about Microsoft. However, the share-price rally could persist as Microsoft will undoubtedly benefit from its practically inevitable acquisition of Activision Blizzard (NASDAQ:ATVI). Microsoft assuredly will continue making waves in generative artificial intelligence.

It’s safe to say that Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) really crushed it with its latest earnings release. That’s the immediate takeaway, following the nearly 25% post-earnings spike in the price of NVDA stock.

Recently, news with one of Meta Platforms’ (NASDAQ:META) competitors has been discussed as a catalyst for META stock. That would be the potential for a full U.S. ban of TikTok. But given what has transpired since Montana became the first U.S. state to ban the China-owned video-sharing app, that’s a tough sell. I am doubtful

There’s a bad news, good news situation happening with global movie-theater chain AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC). The bad news is that a highly respected investment fund reportedly liquidated its full position in AMC stock.

Plug Power (NASDAQ:PLUG) has demonstrated impressive top-line growth, and the PLUG stock perma-bulls will be sure to point this out. Yet, that’s not the full story. Even as Plug Power reports strong revenue and issues an ambitious outlook, the hydrogen and fuel cell producer seems to have trouble converting its sales into profits. It’s no secret

With the Scion Asset Management hedge-fund manager rocketing to fame thanks to the film “The Big Short,” seemingly everyone wants to talk about Michael Burry stock picks. Recently, CNBC featured the contrarian and often-enigmatic investor, disclosing Scion’s top 10 holdings as of the first quarter’s end. True to form, these Michael Burry stocks offer an

As the saying goes, “nothing ventured, nothing gained.” That’s the trade-off with high-risk stocks. In exchange for the risk of sustaining large losses, investors in risky equities receive the potential for massive gains. During the 2020/2021 runaway bull market, risk-hungry investors crushed it, as speculative growth stocks soared to lofty prices.
