While Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) dominates headlines in the semiconductor space, many view this sector as a one-horse race. Of course, that’s not the case. Companies like Nvidia and its mega-cap semiconductor peers are certainly among the most-watched stocks in the market right now. The question for many investors is whether the valuations of these pricey chip

Investors and analysts often debate whether Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) should be viewed as an auto company or a tech company. The reality is that it is both. The company’s innovative electric vehicles and renewable energy products underscore its role in the auto industry, while its cutting-edge technologies, such as self-driving capabilities and AI-driven software initiatives, underscore

Blue-chip stocks represent ownership in established, financially sound businesses, but are the blue-chips you’re taking a look at today in the “Green Zone stocks” category? TradeSmith offers investors valuable tools for determining which stocks to watch. A good example is its Health Indicator feature. This comprehensive indicator provides an overall rating of a stock’s current

The thing about bear markets is they are so short-lived. Since 1928, the average bear market lasted just 15 months. A bull market, on the other hand, would go on for years. They last for three years on average. Even better, since 1970, the typical bull market has raged for six years! The one that

On Monday, Mullen Automotive (NASDAQ:MULN) announced it had acquired assets from Romeo Power for $3.5 million. From a fundamental standpoint, this means… well… not much. The $3.5 million purchase represents less than 2% of Mullen’s reported cash, and the assets appear to be a part of a fire sale that Mullen probably didn’t need. Nevertheless,

C3.ai (NYSE:AI) stock has had an interesting run. Previously known as C3 IoT, the company has evolved to tap into AI technology trends, shifting its focus from energy-emissions tracking and IoT to meet the rising demand for AI solutions. A higher-risk option for investors looking to ride the secular tailwinds AI and automation provide, C3.ai

It’s official. One of the hot IPOs of 2023 has priced its initial public offering.  On Wednesday, Sept. 13, Arm Holdings (NASDAQ:ARM) got the last laugh. The U.K.-based chip designer originally sold itself to Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) in 2022 for $40 billion, but regulators nixed the deal. Its shares were priced at $52 for a market

“Social media is the ultimate equalizer. It gives a voice and a platform to anyone willing to engage.” –Amy Jo Martin This has not been a healthy market by any means. As I’ve noted numerous times, the vast majority of stocks have performed sub-par in what is otherwise supposed to be a strong year given

The Standards and Practices (S&P) 500 has surged since the pandemic lows in March 2020, driven by monetary and fiscal stimulus, but growth might slow when the Federal Reserve tightens policies. This has led me to come up with my total return picks for September 2023.  The era of high returns may become more challenging.

Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) stock is one I’ve had mixed opinions of in the past. On the one hand, this is a company with some clear speculative upside, particularly as a vehicle for investors to bet on the overall electric vehicle space. However, it’s also clear that Lucid Group is one that has been plagued by

Towards the end of 2021, Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock was trading at $300. NVDA stock corrected to lows of $108 by October 2022 before skyrocketing by more than 200% for year-to-date. The point I want to make is that the rally in blue-chip stock can be stellar from oversold levels. It does not take time for

Plenty have thrown in the towel with positions in Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID), but many analysts and investors remain optimistic about the future prospects of LCID stock. While others have headed for the exits, they’ve held on, continuing to argue the consistently-questionable bull case for the struggling electric vehicle maker’s shares. In fact, just recently, the

In early August, I wrote about how shares of T2 Biosciences (NASDAQ:TTOO) could rise to $1 or more in a short-term frenzy. Meme investors had singled out the stock, and heavy options trading meant shares were at risk of getting squeezed. Retail investors delivered. Within two weeks, TTOO’s stock had risen from 30 cents to

Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) is a member of the “Magnificent Seven” group of tech firms. However, don’t assume that MSFT stock will deliver magnificent returns like it did in 2023’s first half. Sure, Microsoft’s investors will get exposure to the artificial intelligence market. Yet, current and prospective shareholders should be aware of a significant competitor that Microsoft will

Some financial traders might dream of multi-bagger returns when they invest in electric vehicle battery technology company QuantumScape (NYSE:QS). I’ve warned people about QS stock before, and I’m still pessimistic. However, taking a share position could make sense if the price is right. Even a low-confidence stock can rally sharply in certain circumstances. For example, a

For the long term, I like the growth prospects of electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA). However, financial traders need to time their entry points carefully with TSLA stock. That’s a challenging task when Tesla’s chief executive is unpredictable. Some questions remain unanswered in 2023, it seems. Is Tesla’s strategy to lower its EV prices, or

Last week, I mentioned in my article how C3.ai (NYSE:AI) is a significant player in AI, but its high valuation draws investor scrutiny despite its potential. This is a company that’s certainly polarizing, and for good reason. As far as companies viewed as battlegrounds in the artificial intelligence discussion, AI stock certainly makes the list

Unlike some other artificial intelligence stocks that have zoomed higher in 2023, there’s far more substance than hype with Nvidia’s (NASDAQ:NVDA) AI catalyst. In turn, there’s been some justification for the triple-digit run-up in the price of NVDA stock this year. However, the keyword here is “some justification,” Why? This stock’s more than threefold increase

If GameStop (NYSE:GME) were an ordinary company, its second-quarter results released on Thursday should have been a triumph. Net sales of $1.16 billion represented a 2.5% increase from the previous year, and net losses were cut to a mere $2.8 million — a rounding error for a company that lost $50.5 million the quarter before.
