[“Power Through a Possible Recession With Growth Stocks” was originally published on May 13, 2022. It has since been updated and republished.] Lately, the stock market has been getting crushed.

Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) stock recently hit a new 52-week low as tech stocks have been hit hard due to a gloomy market outlook. Most high-beta technology stocks have plummeted recently due to a fear of yield curve inversion, which is a leading recession indicator. In addition, risk-aversion is causing all kinds of problems, causing many new

San Francisco-based Airbnb (NASDAQ:ABNB) provides the go-to home-sharing and homestay network for many travelers. There’s a lot going on with the company now. Some of what you’ll hear about Airbnb might not sound positive at first, but it’s important to get the full story. In the end, there’s still a compelling argument to buy ABNB stock. Top

These six tech stocks can be counted on to move higher over the next 12 months. This is due to the quality of their earnings, dividends, and free cash flow, pushing their target prices higher.

Following the June 13 stock market rout, FAANG stocks have hit new lows. Many may be cashing out of them, as uncertainty wreaks havoc on the market, but you may be looking to go against the grain.

Many renewable energy stocks are going to take a long time to develop into serious growth plays. With the market as bad as it is, it’s unlikely to find short-duration plays to invest in. In fact, I’d avoid them at all costs and opt to invest in longer-term plays. By investing in renewable energy stocks,

As a stock, Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) may be running on low battery. Market volatility has hammered LCID stock. It’s back down to the mid-teens per share. But as a company, it’s continuing to drive ahead, making progress with partnerships and vehicle order deals. More recently, the early-stage electric vehicle (EV) maker has made another bit

2022 has been a rough ride for bank stocks. Recession fears continue to drag financial shares down, leading to significant buying opportunities. For instance, the Dow Jones U.S. Financial Services index has fallen more than 23% year-to-date (YTD). Similarly, the Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSEARCA:XLF) has declined around 23% in 2022. Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve (Fed)

We’ve seen a chip favorite get demolished, as Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) has not been able to fight off the selling pressure in the stock market.

Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) stock hasn’t had much of a year, giving up nearly 60% of its value.  While many investors think that the company is going nowhere, I believe it has strong potential to grow over the years. The company is expected to make losses until next year but if it manages to ramp up production,

Recently, I discussed how Costco (NASDAQ:COST) has been handling inflation much better than its peers in the retail sector. To a large extent, the market is aware of this. That’s why COST stock has partially bounced back, after plunging during the mid-May retailer stock selloff. Yet shares have still not made their way back to

Investors looking to scoop up undervalued S&P 500 stocks are in a position to see the recent doldrums as an opportunity. The stock market continues to be in free-fall mode after its most recent selloff pushed the S&P 500 roughly 20% below its record highs. Rising inflation and interest rates have unnerved investors, and a

During times of extreme volatility, even the most seasoned investors may struggle to pick safe stocks to buy for the long run. In such periods, it may be inspiring to review the stocks held by the Gates Foundation, which we will refer to as Bill Gates stocks. Established in 2000, the Bill & Melinda Gates

The first few months of 2022 was certainly not the best time to make an entry into growth stocks like Rivian (NASDAQ:RIVN) stock. There are dozens of high-flying names that have plunged by over 50% in the last five months. The correction exposes the companies with weak fundamentals. At the same time, it presents an

In the year thus far, Raytheon Technologies (NYSE:RTX) stock has done very well, bucking the overall bearish trend amongst the broader markets. The company specializes in defense, security, and aerospace. They provide weapons systems, missile systems, precision strike technology solutions, and intelligence to customers worldwide. Raytheon Technologies has been around since 1922, when it was

Nasdaq stocks have undeniably a tough year in 2022. The index is down nearly 25% following a short-lived rally. This sell-off naturally creates investment opportunities, but there is a caveat to finding undervalued stocks — just because a stock declines doesn’t mean it’s undervalued. Finding undervalued Nasdaq stocks to buy first requires to define what

Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) shares have been feeling the full effects of 2022’s impact on the stock market. This includes concerns about macro economic factors like inflation, interest rates, and war.

Undervalued semiconductor stocks have declined sharply in 2022, pushing many stocks to 52-week lows. Supply-chain issues have yet to be ironed out and the 40-year high inflation has only added to suppliers’ woes. Despite these challenges, the demand for semiconductors remains strong worldwide. Recent research highlights that the global semiconductor “market is projected to grow from

Nasdaq stocks have taken a severe beating in 2022. Interest rate hikes have pushed investors toward the safety of blue chip stocks, squeezing their lofty valuations to more reasonable levels. As we write, the Nasdaq 100 index was in bear-market territory, about 22% year-to-date (YTD). However, lower sky-high valuations now mean more attractive buying opportunities

In times of rising economic uncertainty, cash is king. Therefore, today’s article focuses on cash-cow stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that invest in such shares. Businesses require cash to meet their obligations in good times and bad. Thus, free cash flow (FCF) offers a good gauge to measure a company’s ability to navigate headwinds, such
