Immediate-term news, like the Bitcoin (BTC-USD) halving or the SEC’s approval of spot ETFs, is important, but that’s not the only think to consider before investing in Marathon Digital (NASDAQ:MARA). Instead, think about the long term and prepare to hold Marathon Digital stock throughout the ups and downs of the crypto market. Yes, we will discuss

I have been down on Palantir stock (NASDAQ:PLTR) for some time. It is, at its heart, a government contractor. Calling it an AI stock doesn’t change that. Military contracting is a profitable but slow-growth business. Palantir brought almost 10% of last year’s $2.25 billion in revenue to the bottom line. The question is always whether

Investors circling newly public social media company Reddit (NYSE:RDDT) should hold off on taking a position in the company.Now that the hype surrounding Reddit’s initial public offering (IPO) has died down, Reddit stock has fallen substantially since its market debut in March. After peaking at $74.90 per share, the stock has dropped 45% to now

Trade wars are always destructive. The current escalation in the chip wars will be no different. The Biden administration banned the use of equipment from China’s Huawei and ZTE over alleged national security concerns.

It’s been a month since Boeing (NYSE:BA) CEO Dave Calhoun announced that he would step down at the end of 2024.

Let’s examine Trump Media to clear up confusion and reach a reasonable conclusion. First and foremost, don’t get sidetracked

Reddit (NYSE:RDDT) has been quite popular since its launch two decades ago. Indeed, 2023 was a mixed-bag of expectations for Reddit stock, especially when investors saw an $804 million revenue which was accompanied by a $91 million loss. Reddit admitted it was slow to monetize its platform, but expressed optimism about its business potential. The

If you’re only looking for a risk-free, “steady Eddie” financial-sector holding, then you probably don’t want to invest in Robinhood Markets (NASDAQ:HOOD). Bear in mind, Robinhood isn’t a traditional broker and trading platform. Still, risk-tolerant folks may find valid reasons to own Robinhood stock, so we’re assigning it a “B” grade. Robinhood became famous as a

​​​Inflation is here to stay. While down from the historically high levels hit over the past year or so, inflation rates remain elevated and are wearing on the economy. U.S. business activity slowed to a four-month low this month, which has worried the Federal Reserve. It was looking to cut interest rates at least three

Surely, it’s tempting for investors to place huge bets on Taiwan Semiconductor (NYSE:TSM). The company is a chipmaking giant with expectation-beating earnings results. Overeager traders should pay attention to TSM’s outlook for the global chip market. With that in mind, it’s not an ideal time to buy Taiwan Semiconductor stock. It’s been an interesting year

InvestorPlace.com contributor Rich Duprey recently suggested that Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) stock is a better buy than Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA).  Counterintuitively, the fact that Nvidia stock has outperformed AMD threefold over the past year does help make the argument that the former is ready to cool off while the latter has plenty of momentum left in

The U.S. Department of Justice and 16 state attorneys general are suing Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock for violating antitrust laws, causing the value of AAPL stock to drop by $115 billion on March 21.  Bloomberg reported, “The US lawsuit alleges that Apple has used its power over app distribution on the iPhone to thwart innovations that

In case you hadn’t noticed, the U.S. government is the most powerful governing body on the planet. Right or wrong, our government’s influence reaches far and wide, touching nearly every aspect of our lives. As citizens in this country, we have to live with these decisions, for better or worse. While politicians often get it

Electric vehicle maker Nio (NYSE:NIO) successfully established itself as a premium brand within the China market. It differentiated itself from rival EV companies by creating a battery-swap business to serve as an alternative to charging. Yet vehicle margins are narrowing and NIO stock remains a loss-generating company. It is looking to sell its EVs in

I always get nervous when Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock falls because it’s such a big component of Elon Musk’s wealth. And given I have such a large following on X, I certainly don’t want to see risks to the platform I have the most reach on. Objectively though, it seems possible that Tesla could roundtrip all

Dividend investors seek stocks with the highest yields, solid earnings and cash flow to support them. However, not all stocks that offer high dividends have the financial performance to sustain them, and they may have to cut the return. These three stocks offer higher-than-average yields but have warranted caution over the last quarter and coming

Indicating that growth stocks are in the initial stages of a hot comeback, the iShares Russell 2000 (NYSEARCA:IWM), whose movements are largely determined by growth stocks, is up nearly 5% year-to-date. Moreover, on March 20, the U.S. Federal Reserve’s Summary of Economic projections indicated that the central bank still intends to cut its benchmark rate

If the AI boom is real, it must go beyond Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA), and there logically should be multi-baggers yet to come. And it could be the case that Micron Technology (NASDAQ:MU) becomes the next major beneficiary. Micron crushed earnings as apparent from its beat yesterday. Memory and storage solutions critical for AI applications are the
