When Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL) stock rolled out its AI-generative search feature named Search Generative Experience (SGE), it was perhaps the biggest change to its Google product ever. On top of being perhaps the biggest change, it is certainly the most controversial. One might wonder what extra usefulness is being added to the user experience (aside

Before investing in Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) stock, it is essential to analyze varying viewpoints in order to soundly decide. Oracle is one of the major companies in the cloud computing and software for enterprise markets.  The financial performance of Oracle has been good with strong revenues and earnings. It has also paid great attention to the

Walmart (NYSE:WMT) reported strong financial results for the first quarter, and the giant retailer is extremely profitable and has several highly promising initiatives at this point. Moreover, the firm has clearly become adept at attracting a large percentage of American consumers while generating high profits in the process. Given these points, I believe that Walmart

Disney (NYSE:DIS) is in a place it is not very familiar with. While its theme parks have long been the mortar that held the Magic Kingdom together, its linear television business is in a difficult spot and until only very recently, its movies and streaming shows were a disaster. There is no telling if the House

Electric vehicle manufacturer Polestar Automotive (NASDAQ:PSNY) produces cars that are stylish and powerful. Yet, this doesn’t ensure that Polestar’s shareholders will succeed in the long run. Sure, there’s some positive news to report, but there’s also a major issue that should make anyone think twice about buying Polestar stock. Don’t get the wrong idea. I’ve expressed optimism

SoundHound AI stock (NASDAQ:SOUN) has courted controversy since the company went public in the year 2022. SOUN has not been without some troubles, with some short sellers claiming the business has “fake revenue, fake bookings, and fake AI”.  Furthermore, being one of the first companies that offered purely voice AI solutions, SoundHound is now among

Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) stock is finally in the grip of the AI fever. The iPhone maker traded at 52-week lows of $164 mid-April. In three months, Apple stock surged by 35% and trades at a forward price-to-earnings ratio of 30.3. I believe that valuations are stretched, considering the company’s revenue and earnings growth trajectory. A correction

With many expecting Trump to win the election in November, his economic policies could significantly impact stock prices. For one, Trump’s proposed corporate tax rate cut from 21% to 15% would immediately increase Amazon’s (NASDAQ:AMZN) earnings. There are, however, a few negatives including tariffs, immigration policies and the already weakened consumer demand that bode poorly

For a while now, AI has been taking the world by storm. It’s become the hottest sector on Wall Street, consumed most media headlines and dominated as the topic of conversation.  And after reporting the results of its quarterly executive survey on artificial intelligence, Bain & Company – one of the world’s largest consulting firms

Software-as-a-service (SaaS) stocks are gaining traction as the cloud computing revolution reshapes the way businesses operate. Leading this transformative wave, SaaS companies offer subscription-based access to essential applications and services. This model provides numerous advantages for businesses, including scalability, cost-efficiency, and automatic updates. As more companies migrate their operations to the cloud, the demand for

CrowdStrike Holdings (NASDAQ:CRWD) stock was cratering after being discovered responsible for a disastrous technology outage that grounded flights and disrupted financial systems around the world. The extent of the damage from the worldwide information technology outage on July 19 is still being assessed. However, the hit to CrowdStrike’s reputation and stock have been immediate. On

Congress has an uncanny knack for making remarkably well-timed stock trades. They pinky swear they are not buying and selling stock based on insider information culled from their regulation of the companies. Yet the politicians tend to dramatically outperform the S&P 500. One of the best at this is former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Her

Palantir (NYSE:PLTR) investors are pretty happy these days. The Peter Thiel-founded data analytics firm has seen its share price rally nearly 68% since the start of the current year. There are multiple catalysts keeping Palantir’s shares surging. However, investors should tread carefully going forward. Not only is PLTR’s valuation way too high, but people may

The S&P 500 has continues to edge higher. A softer-than-expected inflation report for June fueled hopes that the Federal Reserve will start cutting rates in September. Several major investment advisory firms sifted their forecasts for Fed rate cuts and stock downgrades. The CPI report showed only a slight 0.06% increase in core inflation, excluding food

Over the last few trading sessions, SoundHound AI (NASDAQ:SOUN) fell by more than 12% from $6.20 a share to $5.49. For those who don’t follow SoundHound AI stock, the company makes AI voice assistants that can be used on everything from the phone in your hotel room to the drive-through at a fast-food restaurant. Its

Contrarian investing is hard. It is difficult to go against the crowd. Stocks at 52-week lows are companies the stock market harshly rejects. By diving into the shallow end of the pool, it requires fortitude to believe conventional wisdom is wrong about a company. The market is saying the business is failing and has little

Investors are always on the hunt for the next big thing. Much like the internet revolution and the current AI boom, savvy investors look to get in early on the ground floor of the next world-changing trend. I believe a few under-the-radar companies have the ambition and growth potential to possibly be those next breakout

While the Magnificent 7 stocks were seemingly all that anyone talked about last year, they have been pretty quiet in 2024. And yet, they still impact the performance of the S&P 500 even more so than they did last year. According to a CNBC analysis, the group of stocks comprising the Magnificent 7 makes up

With the announcement of Apple’s (NASDAQ:AAPL) new approach to artificial intelligence (AI) called Apple Intelligence, three of the biggest cloud computing stocks are about to reach the next level of consumer exposure. That’s because Apple is now moving toward offering on-device, artificial intelligence through a partnership with OpenAI for its ChatGPT platform. While the AI

The stock market is surging to record highs, and despite skeptics calling it a “bubble,” one clear catalyst has emerged that will likely send stocks even higher in the coming months: strong earnings. As go earnings, so go stocks. Going back to 1990, the correlation is as clear as day … When earnings are rising,
