Nio (NYSE:NIO) recently delivered solid 2023 delivery numbers and January performance. However, the market appears to remain relatively cold for this high-potential, high-risk Chinese EV maker. Geopolitical risks remain, and the fact that NIO stock is a U.S.-listed ADR provides its own set of headwinds. That said, the company is growing, and growing fast. And

TikTok could be banned in the U.S. if China’s ByteDance does not divest it, under proposed legislation unveiled Tuesday.

I’ll be the first to admit that I’m an Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) fan. My wife and I own at least 10 Apple products, with more to come, I’m sure. However, regarding AAPL stock, I’m afraid the company’s car debacle is a sign it might be too scared to fail.  This reluctance is not the hallmark of

Dear Quentin, My dad and his second wife moved to Texas for their golden years.  Unfortunately, he died unexpectedly last September. He had been battling a terminal disease. He was immunocompromised, and a double whammy of pneumonia and COVID-19 was just too much. My stepmother said if I claimed a share of their house, I

Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) continues to deliver stellar financial results as it remains the runaway market leader in providing the chips that are used to produce artificial intelligence.

Earnings season for the fourth quarter of calendar 2023 is coming to a close. Clear winners and losers are emerging from the reports.

A four-month-long U.S. stock market rally, partly fueled by investors’ expectations for interest rate cuts in 2024 by the Federal Reserve, faces a test posed by pair of big events in the week ahead. The first is Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell’s semiannual testimony to Congress on Wednesday and Thursday, followed by Friday’s official jobs

The fourth quarter (Q4) shined bright for hedge funds, marking it a standout period in the investment realm.

My stance on Chinese EV maker Nio (NYSE:NIO) stock has changed, and I now see more relative upside for the company’s competitors, looking at this space more broadly. However, there are reasons investors may consider this stock an excellent long-term play in this market. I was once bullish on Nio, and I can understand the

Dear Quentin, I wanted to share my experience with the current housing market and ask for advice on my next moves in a seemingly impossible situation. Let’s take a trip back to 2017. I was married at the time with three young children, and my then-wife and I were renters. We both worked the best

The robotaxi industry looks like it has more legs than the electric vehicle (EV) market at this point. Where EV sales are falling and the companies producing them are in decline or failing, the electric vertical take and landing (eVTOL) industry is ramping up.

There’s no question Warren Buffett has a love affair with Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL). The billionaire investor built up a position in the tech giant that allowed AAPL stock to account for almost half of Berkshire Hathaway‘s (NYSE:BRK-A)(NYSE:BRK-B) portfolio value.
