While the new year generally delivered a sense of optimism, it’s important for investors not to ignore overlooked tech stocks to buy. Of course, the broader technology space inherently commands significant attention. After all, the underlying enterprises form the backbone of various innovations that spark myriad conveniences and improved productivity. Still, not all entities will

Despite the sharp slide in biotech stocks during 2022, the industry is still poised for mega growth.  Pandemic preparedness needs better vaccines and disease detection methods.  An aging population needs new drugs and new ways to use them. Plus, new technologies like CRISPR have given scientists the tools they need to make this all happen. The

Even as market commentators debate whether the stock market can continue making a comeback this year, it’s best not to sit on the sidelines. Although uncertainty remains high, there are many strong investing opportunities out there, particularly in areas such as overlooked small-cap stocks. Overlooked, under-the-radar, whatever you want to call it, these are the stocks

Investors are always searching for opportunities to yield handsome returns. As virtual reality technology evolves, it’s perhaps the best time to park your capital in some of the most promising virtual reality stocks. With the release of cheaper headsets and accessories, VR looks set to become part of our everyday lives within the next few years.

Although the implosion of the equities sector in 2022 particularly impacted the technology sphere – and thus caused mass layoffs – certain tech stocks to buy may offer compelling discounts. With the Federal Reserve determined to control inflation through ever-rising interest rates if necessary, the sector needs to downsize. Actually, check that: it’s called “right-sizing”

But if you want to stand out from the crowd and find some bargains with some penny stocks, then this one’s for you. Penny stocks don’t necessarily

Considering an addition to your clean energy holdings? If so, you might want to take a look at Sunrun (NASDAQ:RUN) stock. There are concerns about the near-term trajectory of the U.S. residential solar market, which Sunrun specializes in serving. So, RUN stock gets a “B” instead of an “A” rating.

I’m writing about Toast (NYSE:TOST) on the day after the provider of cloud-based restaurant-management software reported mixed fourth-quarter earnings. Toast stock lost more than 22% of its value on the news.  I intended to write this piece before Humpty Dumpty had a big fall. However, nothing in the firm’s results changes my investment thesis on

AI stocks are booming, providing exposure to what could be a potential $1.81 trillion opportunity, according to Grand View Research. Even more impressive, according to Accenture, “Artificial intelligence could double annual economic growth rates by 2035 by changing the nature of work and spawning a new relationship between man and machine.

When many investors think about clean water stocks, the first thing that comes to mind for many investors is utility stocks. And hey, in today’s volatile market, the relative safety and security that comes from owning utilities is not a bad idea.   But if you’re an investor looking for growth, you’ll be looking for

Cannabis hasn’t been legalized at the federal level just yet. But give it time. With more U.S. states and countries worldwide legalizing its use, it’s only a matter of time. Accordingly, I think it’s also only a matter of time before cannabis stocks begin to see higher highs. According to a Pew Research poll, 88% of U.S. adults support

There’s little doubt that electric vehicles will be dominant in the future. In California last quarter, plug-in vehicles accounted for 24% of all light vehicles sold, and 21% of all light vehicles sold were pure EVs. With the federal government heavily incentivizing the purchase of EVs through the tax code, and spearheading the development of

When it comes to growth stocks, the gold investment opportunity is still not lost. Buying quality and overlooked growth stocks at attractive valuations will likely deliver returns that comfortably outperform the markets.

American industry is back. Accordingly, investors are increasingly looking at U.S. industrial stocks as a place to invest in this difficult market. The 2022 Inflation Reduction Act is one of the key drivers of industrial stocks investors are focusing on. Most of this Act’s $370 billion in aid is aimed at building supply chains, which start

Holding shares of IBM (NYSE:IBM) isn’t the most obvious way to invest in artificial intelligence (AI).

As an investor, you can get some amazing deals in the stock market. You can even fund some great stocks under $10 to buy if you know where to look. What’s the attraction to buying a stock under $10? Well, not everyone likes to spend $100 or more on a large-cap stock that carries a

Streaming media stocks gained tremendously in value during the pandemic years. For instance, shares of streaming giant Netflix saw an 85.6% bump in price from 2020 to 2021, comfortably outperforming the broader market. Though the pandemic-led tailwinds are unlikely to factor into content consumption, the industry will continue growing at a robust pace which is

Since the biotech bonanza of the pandemic era, many biotech stocks have rocketed up and then down in price. Ginkgo Bioworks (NYSE:DNA), Twist Bioscience (NASDAQ:TWST), and Amyris (NASDAQ:AMRS) all fell more than 75% from peak to trough, and may still have farther to fall. Still, improving monetary outlook and bold new ideas means these are

Since at least 2020, I have recognized the tremendous power of artificial intelligence to change our world in general and companies’ financial results in particular. My belief in the power of AI led me to recommend and, in some cases, buy the shares of Intel (NASDAQ:INTC), International Business Machines (NYSE:IBM), Stem (NYSE:STEM), iCAD (NASDAQ:ICAD), Micron (NASDAQ:MU),

Smart homes stocks took a beating last year in the stock market. The Smart Home Stock Index witnessed a 32% drop in price, mirroring the broader market.
