Stocks to buy

For the past two years, AI stocks have been all the rage on Wall

As we keep on racing toward the new year, most investors are busy looking for the best stocks to buy for 2025.  There has been a lot of talk about AI stocks continuing to lead this market rally higher. Energy stocks seem to be a popular choice with the incoming administration. A lot of investors

In 1990, Tim Berners Lee invented the World Wide Web, but the internet’s true “Day One” arrived five years later when Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN) made its first online sale, catapulting the disruptive technology into global consciousness. Likewise, while the first BlackBerry Ltd. (BB) smartphone was released in 1999, that technology’s Day One came eight years

It looks like the U.S. Federal Reserve decided to play the part of the Grinch today, pouring cold water on the Street’s ongoing holiday rally with a very hawkish update. And we’ve got one word to describe the day’s price action – ouch!  In short, while the Fed did cut interest rates today, its December

November’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) report arrived yesterday – and it was just what stocks needed to continue rallying.  That is, this most recent batch of data showed that inflation continued to run as expected last month. In response, the stock market soared, and odds for a December rate cut popped to 99%. It seems

I don’t know about you, but as someone heavily involved in stock analysis on a regular basis, I often feel like there must be a better way to approach the markets. Just imagine how much time you could save if, instead of poring over the details of each individual stock out there, you had a

In Ancient Rome, military commanders often turned to oracles known as Auspex (also known as augurs) to predict the outcomes of battles. Wars were costly, and failures were even more so. Generals had a strong incentive to win.  These predictions weren’t exactly scientific. Many augurs used chickens to divine the future, while others relied on

Ever since it became clear that Donald Trump won the most recent U.S. presidential election, the stock market has been on an impressive tear higher. Now everyone wants to know what the next four years will look like for stocks in the “Trump 2.0” era. Will this exciting price action last? Well, I have six

November’s sought-after nonfarm payrolls report has officially arrived. And while it may feel inconclusive to some, in our view, it broadly suggests that stocks should keep on rallying into the end of the year.  That is, we think this was the perfect “Goldilocks” jobs report. It wasn’t hot enough to create reinflation fears, nor was

With Thanksgiving now in the rearview mirror – and Black Friday and Cyber Monday all wrapped up with a bow – we are charging into the holiday season with gusto. As a matter of fact, after November’s remarkable stock market performance, investors are now buzzing with excitement.  That is, last month, the S&P 500 delivered

For two years now, the stock market has been ripping higher in one of its strongest bull markets in history. In fact, the S&P 500 is up by more than 50% since early 2023.  But while the gains have been impressive, this has also been a “market of the few,” not “of the many.” That

Tom Yeung here with this week’s Sunday Digest.  Many of you will know that I am a relatively conservative investor. I pay close attention to a company’s long-term profitability, and to me, cash flow is king. There’s nothing wrong with earning 10% dividends from a high-quality stock.  But sometimes, growth is so obvious that it’s

When it comes to long-term investing, there are many ways to find success. For example,

Tom Yeung here with your Sunday Digest.  Last week, I recommended five stocks to buy in 2025 on a Donald Trump election victory. The president-elect is known for his clear intentions, and his second term promises even more of what we saw during his first 2016-2020 go-around. (I realize some of you will love this

Ever since Donald Trump became the 47th U.S. president-elect this past Election Day, the stock market has been on a tear. Clearly, investors believe that his pro-growth policies will benefit both the U.S. economy and stock market over the next few years. Now, thankfully, we don’t have to guess how a Trump presidency will impact

Tom Yeung here with your Sunday Digest.   On November 6, we finally got our answer…  Donald Trump will be the 47th president of the United States of America.  Half of all Americans are delighted. Trump has promised everything from lower taxes to stricter migration rules, and Congress appears in a position to let him

For the past two days, the stock market has benefitted nicely from the so-called “Trump Bump.”  That is, ever since Donald Trump won the 47th U.S. Presidential Election – on the premise that his pro-growth policies will benefit the U.S. economy and stock market – stocks have been taking off.  But how big is the

Well, the election results are in. It seems that, come January, Donald J. Trump will be sworn in as the 47th president of the United States. And thanks to a sweeping ‘red wave,’ he will also receive ample support from a Republican House and Senate to execute his economic plans during the first two years

With a large amount of anxiety and perhaps a touch of dread, the time has finally come – Election Day. And that means that within the next few hours – or possibly days – we will have chosen a new president of the United States.  Now, that’s a big deal for a lot of reasons. 

Tom Yeung here with this week’s Sunday Digest.   Last week, I told you the story about news magnate Charles E. Marsh. The Ohio-born businessman had built an incredible fortune buying up small newspapers across Texas in the 1930s… but knew little about the oil boom happening under his nose.  To invest in the bonanza, he
