Stocks to buy

Let’s be honest here. Facebook changed its name to Meta (NASDAQ:FB) and is betting everything on metaverse development because it has no other choice. Meta’s social media platforms are dying, especially the core Facebook app (which, for the first time ever, lost users last quarter). Its digital advertising business is disappearing, thanks to privacy law

The performance of Palantir (NYSE:PLTR) stock was unimpressive for most of 2021. After a strong listing in September 2020, the stock gained almost 250% by January 2021. However, PLTR stock subsequently retreated on both macro and micro factors. It’s now down nearly 60% over the past 12 months. But is all hope lost for this

The housing market is on fire — and I believe the single best growth stock to buy for 10X potential gains in the 2020s is a disruptive housing stock. But more on that later. For now, just look at these housing numbers. Existing home sales hit 6.1 million homes sold last year, the highest mark

Social media stocks have taken a beating lately, and they have had a rocky start to 2022. Pinterest (NYSE:PINS) was once a pandemic darling, but the stock has been declining for the past few months. We spent hours on the social media app while in lockdown, but interest soon started to fade. PINS stock made

After the market’s latest round of volatility, it may not seem like the right time to get into Robinhood (NASDAQ:HOOD) stocks. As inflation, rate hikes and other factors point to more rocky times ahead, some of the most popular stocks out there (many of which are great for first-time investors) could continue to make moves lower.

Web 3.0 — also referred to as the decentralized web or Web3 —  is getting plenty of attention on Wall Street. Some regard it as a paradigm shift that will make the internet immersive for the masses. Others highlight, “Web3 is about ownership. It’s about the direct connection between creators and consumers, obfuscating the gatekeepers.”

Sin stocks refer to shares of vice-related public companies. Traditionally, the term has been used for stocks in gambling, tobacco, alcohol, defense, cannabis and adult entertainment industries. As a result, most companies in these sectors usually do not qualify as environmental, social, and governance (ESG) investments. Academic research highlights that, “carbon-intensive sectors … have newly

Micron’s (NASDAQ:MU) near-term and longer-term prospects remain very strong, and the company is extremely profitable. But despite all of that, MU stock is still trading at a tiny valuation.

January had been a difficult month for stock investors, but the troubles with Upstart (NASDAQ:UPST) stock started well before technology stocks fell off a cliff.

Upstart handily

There have already been some big movements in stocks in 2022. Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:FB) lost $232 billion in value after weaker-than-expected first quarter revenue. Meanwhile, Snap (NYSE:SNAP) soared by some 60% after its quarterly numbers beat estimates despite a prior downward trend. Now, the story looks similar for DraftKings (NASDAQ:DKNG) in terms of correction. In

Electric vehicle companies have had a difficult start to the year. With the tech sell-off and the overall investor sentiment, EV stocks have seen a decline.

DocuSign (NASDAQ:DOCU) was one of the major benefactors of the pandemic. The cloud-based e-signature provider was a major hit with people looking to conduct business while being socially distanced. DOCU stock, however, has performed dismally in the past year, losing more than 50% of its value. Moreover, investors are worried about how it will fare

If any company is emblematic of the “recovery trade,” it would be cruise operator Carnival Corporation (NYSE:CCL). Indeed, you could actually use CCL stock as a gauge of how both Wall Street and Main Street are faring nearly two years after the onset of Covid-19.

It wasn’t too long ago that I was riding high on my recommendation of Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID). I initially wrote an article on LCID stock in September of last year.

Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) is on the right track towards its more long-term objectives despite recent declines in LCID stock triggered by near-term macro challenges.

Some commentators, including InvestorPlace columnist Will Ashworth,  have stated unequivocally that buying shares of special-purpose acquisition company Digital World Acquisition (NASDAQ:DWAC) at its current levels is stupid. DWAC stock soared from around $10 a share to a high of $175 in October when it was announced the blank-check company would merge with Trump Media &

Back when the coronavirus pandemic first capsized our economy, a combination of fear and lack of consistent, verifiable information had millions of Americans sheltering in place. One of the consequences was a complete (albeit temporary) lockdown of food-and-drinks establishments. Unsurprisingly, government data indicates that retail food sales spiked sharply early in the crisis, boding poorly

Investing is a high-risk, high-reward activity that requires a lot of research and time. But what if you could invest in the best new stocks with just a few clicks?

The recent volatility in the markets appears to be easing a bit. That’s not to say the main driver of it, the Federal Reserve’s plans to raise interest rates, won’t continue to have an impact. But with stocks, electric vehicle (EV) and tech plays in particular knocked down so much, so fast? It may be

In the 16 months that FuboTV (NYSE:FUBO) has been trading publicly, FUBO stock has posted a small gain.

It didn’t take long for the euphoric rally in cannabis stocks following President Joe Biden’s election to fizzle out. You can thank a renewed focus on valuations and regulatory headwinds for that. Among the stocks to crash and burn was Canadian cannabis producer Sundial Growers (NASDAQ:SNDL). SNDL stock is down nearly 90% since its post-election

The argument that the market overhyped Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN) stock for the first week after its initial public offering (IPO) is valid. It got too hot too quick. There was little to substantiate it running to $172 within a week of its $100 IPO. That is well above target prices and it seems that Rivian

When McDonald’s (NYSE:MCD) reported fourth-quarter earnings before the market opened on Jan. 27, it missed on both the top and bottom lines due to rising labor and commodity costs.

The Robinhood (NASDAQ:HOOD) platform has been controversial since its inception, but in the last few years has spawned the term Robinhood stocks. The name suggests stocks that are popular with retail investors who use the platform bypassing brokers and with less market savvy than professional investors.
