Stocks to buy

When the markets crashed due to the pandemic, it seemed like the end of the world. However, dozens of stocks delivered multi-fold returns over the next 12-18 months. The euphoric rally in growth stocks was largely over towards the end of 2021. A key reason being contractionary policies coupled with toned down growth expectations. As

With Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) shares at a new 2022 low last week, there was news that had investors concerned. It wasn’t another lockdown at a Chinese assembly plant, or another delayed product release. This time, it was in the company’s own back yard and something that could impact the profitability of its Apple Stores. For

Finding winning auto stocks to buy is difficult this year. The world is still trying to recover from a pandemic. The global shutdowns wreaked havoc on manufacturing, and the auto sector felt it hard.

2022 has been a brutal year for the stock market. Year to date, the S&P 500 is down more than 22%. And, there doesn’t seem to be a catalyst to turn things around given that the economy is slowing, and the Fed is embarking on its most aggressive hiking campaign in decades. If inflation was

One of the dominant themes of 2022 is the volatility in the stock market.

Rivian (NASDAQ:RIVN) stock cannot find its footing, and keeps setting lower-lows. This has left original investors with a lot of pain from the IPO day.

With its roots tracing back to the late 19th century, the best coal stocks to buy may not seem like a relevant topic today.

In May 2022, Lyft (NASDAQ:LYFT) plunged from $30 to the low $20s. It fell again during the technology wreck sell-off this month. Investors abandoned LYFT stock when Uber’s (NYSE:UBER) Chief Executive Officer said it would cut costs and limit staff hiring. Lyft and Uber are among the 2021 winners when countries lifted the pandemic lockdown.

[“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.

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.

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. If you decide to do so, Google and YouTube parent Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL) should be your first pick.

AMC Entertainment Holdings (NYSE:AMC) is on its knees again. AMC stock is down over 56.6% YTD and off over 80.6% from a year ago when it peaked at $60.73.

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.

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. While Nvidia was hitting new highs in November 2021, the selloff eventually hit this name too. At its recent low, NVDA stock was down 55% from the highs. Does that make

We may be headed for a global recession and that means the best stocks to buy are cynically geared rather than say focused on ESG investing principles. It’s not hard to see why. For instance, evidence indicates that people drink more alcohol during hard economic times. Therefore, what better way to address this dynamic than

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
