Editor’s note: “AI Offers an Epic Make-or-Break Moment for Investors” was previously published in June 2023. It has since been updated to include the most relevant information available.

Google the word “greedflation,” and you get more than 1.1 million results. Greedy stocks have become a favorite topic for investors.    In Canada, where I live, the citizens are furious with the large grocery store chains — they’ve been growing their profits over the past few years, including before the pandemic, due to a lack

Multiple signs show that, in-line with my previous predictions, e-commerce is bouncing back. One such indicator is when JPMorgan recently predicted that Amazon’s (NASDAQ:AMZN) gross merchandise volume (GMV) would surge 11.6% this year. They also cited that the e-commerce giant would become America’s largest retailer in 2024. Analysts expect multiple e-commerce players to grow by

There is no question that large-cap stocks are the winners in 2023 thus far.  The S&P 500 is up more than 14% year-to-date. This compares with a 6.4% gain for mid-cap stocks via the S&P MidCap 400 and 3.4% for small-cap stocks and the S&P SmallCap 600. Of the 503 stocks in the S&P 500,

Last year was terrible for growth stocks. All thanks to optimistic estimates being revised and policy tightening by the central bank. However, going by the trend in the first six months of 2023, things appear to be far better. My focus is therefore on the high-quality growth stories of 2023, which have strong financial or business

Today’s tech stock investors want exposure to the artificial intelligence market. Does The Trade Desk (NASDAQ:TTD) stock meet that requirement? Indeed it does. The Trade Desk’s management clearly understands the significance of machine learning tech in 2023. All in all, TTD stock gets a solid “B” rating and has the potential to move higher in the

The iShares Micro-Cap ETF (NYSEARCA:IWC) is the crème de la crème for finding the top micro-cap stocks to buy. The ETF tracks the performance of the Russell Microcap Index, a collection of the smallest securities in the small-cap Russell 2000 index. Currently, IWC has 1,655 holdings with market caps ranging from $4 million to $4.9 billion.  The

While swinging for the fences brings excitement to the art of investing, slow and steady usually wins the race, which brings us to the best investments for 40-year-olds. Around this time frame, the emphasis centers on balance. You still want growth because you have time on your side. Nevertheless, you don’t want to take too

In general, when we talk about a quick doubling time, it’s associated with growth stocks or penny stocks. Blue-chip stocks are known for steady upside and robust dividends. However, markets present opportunities where blue-chip dividend stocks can skyrocket from a meaningful valuation gap. A recent example is Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA). The stock has surged by 192%

With investors looking for growth wherever they can find it, it’s a good time to look at penny stocks to watch in 2023. Granted, penny stocks carry a higher risk than blue-chip stocks, but they also carry the potential for outsized returns. These stocks can move quickly on little to no news. And to be

Year-to-date, market indices have rallied significantly, led by the magnificent seven. As of this writing, the Nasdaq 100 is up 36%, whereas the S&P 500 is up 13%. Despite the rally in the indices, not all stocks have participated. 2022’s winning sectors have been laggards and are reasonable hunting grounds for bargain stocks for 2023. In the first half, market

In recent years, several U.S stocks reached market capitalizations near, at, or above $1 trillion. Now the question is – what will it take for these top valued stocks to reach $10 trillion? The answer to this $10 trillion question varies from company to company. For starters, some members of the “trillion dollar club” have

New CEOs can breathe new life into a company by launching new initiatives, hiring more effective managers, and/or entering new markets. One great example is General Electric. (NYSE:GE). When Larry Culp took the helm of that storied firm in 2018,  it was losing billions of dollars. However, after cutting GE’s costs and making it far

There’s no denying that Shopify (NYSE:SHOP) stock ran too far, too fast in 2020 and 2021. After a sharp-share price decline, Shopify is showing signs of life in 2023. Follow-through isn’t guaranteed, but a small share position in Shopify could yield decent returns. For years, Shopify made it easy for merchants to sell their products

It is imperative when scouting the financial landscape for high-potential penny stocks to tread with both excitement and caution. Trading at a fraction of a dollar, these low-priced securities can generate robust percentage gains even with minor upward price movements.

Cloud computing is more than just using someone else’s computer. The ability for large teams to collaborate, create and publish together seamlessly has upended business workflows in a way few technologies have ever before. No modern large company can even exist without cloud capabilities, and the largest companies are buying ever more cloud space for

This year’s price action in the markets has been dominated by the performance of a handful of stocks including Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA). Notably, the company has provided significant gains for index investors with their stock absolutely skyrocketing higher on the back of surging interest in artificial intelligence and the company’s high-performance chips that power the sector.

As electric vehicles (EVs) gain popularity, several EV stocks have emerged as successful investments. While Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) has been a standout performer, the market has matured, offering numerous opportunities beyond the well-known EV pioneer. Additionally, the EV sector has become increasingly competitive, presenting a range of options for investors seeking the “next Tesla.” It’s important

With the latest Consumer Price Index (or CPI) figures suggesting is easy, now may be a great time to consider DeSPAC stocks to buy. With year-over-year inflation (as measured by the CPI) now running at around 4%, the Federal Reserve’s hiking of interest rates to curb inflation seems to be working. While the Fed merely skipped
