EV industry stocks should be on your watchlist for 2024. If you are interested in the idea of a cleaner future while also growing your portfolio, these companies can help you achieve both goals.

Real estate stocks, including REITs, open doorways to stable profits, tax benefits, and allows access to the housing sector. Housing alone comprises around 15% of U.S. GDP.

The luxury market has been incredibly resilient, even amid the past few years of subtle macro headwinds and the bruising wave of inflation that hit consumers right in the wallet. Undoubtedly, the discretionary consumer goods scene isn’t thriving right now. The entire discretionary scene has been about haves and have-nots. Though the so-called “revenge spending”

The positive outlook for the U.S. economy is underlined by robust growth, with a 3.3% increase last year, outpacing the average pre-pandemic growth. Despite interest rates reaching their highest levels in over two decades, the economy remains resilient, boasting a historically low unemployment rate of 3.7%.

Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) is well known as the reigning king among EV stocks. The company has blazed a path forward in an industry that really didn’t exist in the same way a decade ago. Accordingly, for most investors, Tesla is the EV sector, and it’s the only stock that matters. The market appears to be disagreeing

Many companies have tax shields and can benefit from them during a tax reporting period, but not only do they benefit, they can also offer excellent benefits to their users and thus generate a great loyalty to their products and services, which eventually would translate into financial growth for the company and good returns for

I last wrote about dividend stocks yielding 5% and included it in the headline in August 2019. Interest rates were considerably lower then, so 5% was considered a high-yield dividend stock.  Fast forward to January 2024. While it’s still a high yield, income investors have more options.

Constructing a portfolio takes a lot of time and effort.

Finding dividend stocks to buy and hold isn’t a matter of chasing yield alone— far too many companies facing limited growth potential instead elect to throw cash to shareholders in an attempt at appeasement. Worse yet, some companies even borrow money to juice dividend yield. While that practice has largely gone out of favor in

The Federal Reserve is expected to announce lower rates during its March meeting.
