After rallying 20% higher over the first seven months of 2023, the S&P 500 is poised to enter correction territory. The broad-based index is down over 8% from those recent highs and it faces tough headwinds going forward. Investors often wonder what stocks to buy on the dip or whether they should be buyers at
The third quarter earnings season has revealed that some companies are in trouble. Several high-profile names have reported disappointing financial results that missed Wall Street forecasts by a lot. Many companies issued forward guidance that indicated a slowdown in the economy. The corporate results, combined with rising bond yields and escalating geopolitical risks, are conspiring to push
Nio (NYSE:NIO) has been on a rollercoaster ride in 2023, with massive price fluctuations seen in recent months. Naturally, investors may wonder whether Nio could generate exceptional returns like Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) or BYD (OTCMKTS:BYDDF) over the long-run. In my opinion, Nio certainly has considerable upside potential over the next 5-10 years. However, it also faces
Speculative stocks are a risky proposition in today’s market. With even the Standard and Practices (S&P) 500’s stablest giants dropping, small-cap risky stocks don’t stand a chance. Unless you’re willing to dig a little to find high-risk, high-reward stocks appropriate for today’s conditions. One of my favorite strategies is learning as much as possible about
Investors may want to start clearing out the junk as we head into New Year 2024. In fact, if the stocks listed below are held, consider selling them. If not, be warned.

PayPal Holdings (NASDAQ:PYPL) may tempt contrarian investors. Right now, PYPL stock trades for only 10.8 times earnings. A very low valuation, when compared to their competitors’ valuations. Square and Cash App parent Block (NYSE:SQ), for example, trades at a relatively lofty 25.2 times forward earnings. Other popular fintech names, like SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI), have yet
Expectations are extremely bullish for Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) stock as it prepares to issue its latest earnings today. Third-quarter financial results from technology companies have been hit-and-miss. Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) knocked it out of the park with its Q3 print, Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG/NASDAQ:GOOGL) not so much. Seaport Research Partners issued a “buy” rating on AMZN stock along with
High dividend yields don’t always make stocks attractive for investors. Often, stocks with high dividend yields can represent some of the worst investments available. There are two main reasons for this counterintuitive situation. This has led to the emergence of dividend stocks to avoid. First, dividend yields can be high because the stocks that pay
A few weeks back, I wrote an (admittedly early) earnings preview for QuantumScape (NYSE:QS). I argued that while a post-earnings surge for QS stock was possible in theory, shares would not spike. It’s too late to lay out another prediction for how the stock could perform in response to earnings, much less place a pre-earnings

Buying the dip is an effective way to lower your cost basis for long-term positions. This strategy helps people realize a great upside when stocks recover, but not every stock is a buy the dip candidate. Some dips keep on dipping, and stocks that look like bargains are like that for a reason. However, other
The EV landscape continues to take shape. That’s great for leading sector stocks like Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) that benefit from strong market share, growing sales, and established brand power. At the same time, as the market begins to solidify, early aspirants are beginning to fade fast. The field of EV manufacturers is quickly separating the wheat from the
Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) stock hasn’t benefited even after it announced it would pursue a series of layoffs, would be cutting 12,000 jobs or 6% of the total workforce. Job cuts are not new for the tech industry. Earlier in the year, competitors Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) and Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) laid off a combined 28,000 workers, as they predicted
Several of Wall Street’s biggest names convened in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, for the kingdom’s annual Future Investment Initiative, during which they weighed in on risks and opportunities for investors and the global economy. Bankers speaking on panel discussions notably stressed headwinds — particularly in the short term — from multiple wars, an economic slowdown and
The U.S. Federal Reserve Building in Washington, D.C. Win Mcnamee | Reuters Forecasters have been really wrong on the economy recently, but it’s nothing new: They’ve always been wrong. I was amused yesterday to hear that JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon was shocked — shocked! — that the economic forecasts of the major Wall Street
Investors tend to buy gold stocks as a hedge against broad economic fear. Markets remain volatile and fears of a recession or worse remain elevated. Those are the exact conditions that have historically made gold shares a good investment. Gold tends to underperform the broader stock market in the long term but outperforms in conditions
Bankruptcy filings are on the rise. As the economic good times of the past few years are seemingly drawing to a close, it’s creating trouble for many publicly traded companies. This has led to the rise of bankruptcy predictions in this article. Retail companies have been particularly hard hit. Firms such as Bed Bath &
SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) is well known for being among the leading student loan financing companies in the market. However, as I’ve pointed out in recent pieces, SoFi stock is evolving into more than a one-dimensional player. This company is now a one-stop financial solution provider, with a strong focus on student loan refinancing. There’s a
Back in 2020, Wharton finance professor Jeremy Siegel opined that dividend stocks represent the only protection against inflation. Even with tight monetary policies, inflation has remained stubbornly high. To maintain purchasing power of money, it’s important to remain invested in some of the best dividend stocks. Ahead are three dividend growth stocks to buy at
As geopolitical and broad market instabilities heat up, we’ve seen a flight to safety of risk-free assets. The REIT sector has been one of the worst-performing sectors within the S&P 500 in 2023, with higher rates playing a significant role. Certain REITs should be sold in the present market environment of high-interest rates, surging bond
