The Trend Remains Supreme: 2 Stocks to Watch

The market is attempting to make a comeback. We’ve endured enough of the market’s gut punches this year, and now, as we – potentially, hopefully – begin to turn the corner and leave the lowest lows behind, it’s time to make pointed, intelligent investments. So, in this article, you’ll find two stocks I have on my watchlist for 2023 – and beyond.

There Really Are Opportunities in Something 100 Million Years in the Making

Can something as old as dirt (and as dirty as dirt) really be an exciting investment opportunity in this age of breakthrough technologies and ongoing innovations? Well, yes. We clearly can’t live without oil. Demand is expected to increase for 30 more years before alternative energy sources finally begin to take over. And now, thanks to yesterday’s big news, supply is set to shrink even as demand continues to rise. That’s where opportunity comes in… and one reason why related stocks have been on the move.

How to Approach the Fourth Quarter after Its Strong Start

"‘Tis the season to be jolly…" I know. It’s only October, but it seems to get earlier every year. It won’t be long before stores start piping in holiday music to spark some good old-fashioned holiday spending. But from the stock market’s perspective, it already is the season to be jolly. Seems like the market got the memo based on the big rally in the first two days of trading. And with Q4 typically boding well for the stock market, we all want to know.. can this trend continue?

Apple’s Big Change Showcases This New Megatrend

The well-established "Made In China" trend is at least slowing, if not reversing. "Assembled in China" appears on fewer Apple products now than it used to, and more of the company’s manufacturing is expected to shift to other countries. Now, this is more than just interesting. It has huge implications for investors…

Don’t Hit “Eject” On Green Hydrogen

Green hydrogen stocks had been making some nice headway during July and August, but the stock market’s summertime progress has been all but wiped out, and speculative stocks like those in the green hydrogen sector have borne the brunt of this decline. But these sorts of speculative stocks have gone on to deliver sizeable gains in the past...

The Trend Is What Matters

It’s been a rough month… in a rough quarter… in a rough year. And the speculation that this week’s Fed’s meeting will deliver another a dramatic rate hike is not helping. As I’ve said before, it’s not that the Fed’s rate hikes are irrelevant; it’s that the market puts too much emphasis on particular one-off meetings or events. The trend is what matters.

When “Fools” Become Wise… Investors Become Rich

“If a fool would persist in his folly, he would be wise,” the British romantic poet William Blake once remarked. Blake’s pithy observation applies equally to technological progress and investment success. In other words, many “foolish” ideas – and investments – become brilliant… eventually. And that time is now.

When Big Money Zigs, It’s Time to Zag

Tuesday’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) rocked the market – the worst day in more than two years – as inflation came in hotter than expected.

This Technology and Sports Look Like a Winning Bet for Investors

We Americans love our sports; sports are fun, entertaining, can teach us valuable lessons, and are a great distraction from the problems of the world – like inflation and stock market selloffs. Anything that popular means money, and when it comes to sports, we’re talking about a LOT of money...

To me, when one of the world’s greatest investors and our own “guiding star” agree, that means we need to pay attention…

Some Things Are Too Cool – and Too Profitable – To End

In the unstoppable electric vehicle megatrend, we may see the end of muscle cars. Then again, cool cars seem to be part of America’s DNA…

“Green” Means Go: A New Megatrend Emerges

There is always a bull market somewhere. Even when the market tanks. Even when Powell fear mongers. Even when the odds seem against us. I said it a few weeks ago, and I’ll say it again: It’s time to get back into the market. While I certainly don’t mean that any stocks are good stocks to buy right now, I do mean that by sitting on the sidelines and waiting for things to calm down, you are missing out on some of the biggest emerging opportunities. And today, I want to share with you my next megatrend…

2 Keys for Investors as Recession Fears Escalate

Amid the current confusion and volatile market action, keep these two things in mind: Recessions are not as bad for stocks as you might think… and it still looks like an opportunistic time to get back to making money.

The Bull Market Is Still Alive

There’s always a bull market somewhere... and there’s one happening right now. In this special guest issue from InvestorPlace's own Luke Lango, Luke dives into how even just days after the U.S. Federal Reserve promised that the U.S. economy would experience “pain” and the Dow Jones dropped 1,000 points, you can find a bull market (and opportunities) anywhere...

These Stocks Are on the Verge of Another Golden Age

The mass economic exodus by Western companies from Russia is a seismic event that will redirect investment flows and reshape global supply chains for years to come. This exodus is the final etching in the gravestone of “globalization.” As we talked about in Thursday’s Smart Money, what comes next will be its alter ego: deglobalization. This is the world’s newest megatrend, and I expect it to be an incredibly powerful one.
