Nio (NYSE:NIO) stock is in a slump. It’s not anywhere near the extent of punishment it suffered in 2019 when NIO stock plummeted 85% in 8 months. However, NIO is down 29% from the end of June when it was trading just over the $53 mark. And it’s down about 30% since the start of the

However, despite the price appreciation, I believe there is still plenty of upside

The Nasdaq 100 Index has more than doubled from its pandemic lows in the past year.

Backed by billionaire Bill Ackman, Pershing Square Tontine (NYSE:PSTH) may have been one of the hottest special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) earlier this year.

Just because we hit retirement, doesn’t mean we’re making a total shift to bonds. There are still stocks to buy that are both interesting and profitable.

Luminar (NASDAQ:LAZR) has fallen on tough times as of late, but LAZR stock will be shining in the lidar spotlight soon enough.

Rejection can be painful, especially if you’re a longtime investor in Canadian cannabis company Sundial Growers (NASDAQ:SNDL).

While some investors like to manage their portfolios actively, others prefer to buy stocks under $100 for the long term. This means holding onto shares for as long as thirty years, or even forever.

While the term “technology” often brings to mind the broader digitalization movement, tech actually has the most potential in healthcare.

Roku’s (NASDAQ:ROKU) growth outlook remains extremely strong. And that means the recent, unwarranted downturn of ROKU stock has created a great buying opportunity for longer-term investors.

The global economy is moving toward several exciting trends that lead to new and interesting investment areas like self-driving truck stocks.

Prior to the meme-trading phenomenon, I supported the contrarian bullish case for cineplex operator AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC).
