Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) is set to report second-quarter fiscal 2024 earnings on July 30th. I expect the chipmaker to post strong results. Wall Street has rewarded the stock due to the explosive growth in artificial intelligence applications and a recovery in the PC market. However, while AMD’s long-term prospects remain bright, I’m taking a

There’s a good-news, bad-news situation happening now with Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT). It’s getting a lot of coverage in the financial press, but it’s not positive coverage. Still, long-term shareholders should adopt a “This, too, shall pass” perspective and not panic-sell Microsoft stock. Microsoft isn’t to blame for the negative news, unless you fault them for relying

When Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG, NASDAQ:GOOGL) stock rolled out its AI-generative search feature named Search Generative Experience (SGE), it was perhaps the biggest change to its Google product ever. On top of being perhaps the biggest change, it is certainly the most controversial. One might wonder what extra usefulness is being added to the user experience (aside

Leading contract chip manufacturer Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (NYSE:TSM) has undeniably been a market darling so far in 2024. The stock’s ascent to an all-time high of $193.47 on July 11 shows its dominant position in the global chipmaking landscape. TSM stock has surged over 50% year-to-date (YTD). It has significantly outperformed the Philadelphia Stock Exchange

The extended bull market we are in has not been one where a rising tide lifts all boats. The S&P 500 is up 15% year-to-date and is 52% higher since October 2022 when the latest run-up began. While a lot of the gains for the benchmark index can be tied to how well the Magnificent

Before investing in Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) stock, it is essential to analyze varying viewpoints in order to soundly decide. Oracle is one of the major companies in the cloud computing and software for enterprise markets.  The financial performance of Oracle has been good with strong revenues and earnings.

When your reputation is in tatters, being able to pull your company up out of the ashes takes a Herculean effort. Certainlyit is not easy. As Warren Buffett once said, “It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you will do things differently.” Some companies apparently never thought about

Disney (NYSE:DIS) is in a place it is not very familiar with. While its theme parks have long been the mortar that held the Magic Kingdom together, its linear television business is in a difficult spot and until only very recently, its movies and streaming shows were a disaster. There is no telling if the House

Electric vehicle manufacturer Polestar Automotive (NASDAQ:PSNY) produces cars that are stylish and powerful. Yet, this doesn’t ensure that Polestar’s shareholders will succeed in the long run. Sure, there’s some positive news to report, but there’s also a major issue that should make anyone think twice about buying Polestar stock. Don’t get the wrong idea. I’ve expressed optimism

SoundHound AI stock (NASDAQ:SOUN) has courted controversy since the company went public in the year 2022. SOUN has not been without some troubles, with some short sellers claiming the business has “fake revenue, fake bookings, and fake AI”.  Furthermore, being one of the first companies that offered purely voice AI solutions, SoundHound is now among

Occasionally, hot stocks can get that much hotter in a move that can only be described as a “melt-up.” Such extreme share price action can be like the reverse of a stock meltdown, whereby a stock crashes rapidly, like in late February 2020. Indeed, stock melt-ups and meltdowns tend to catch many off-guard. And while

Congress has an uncanny knack for making remarkably well-timed stock trades. They pinky swear they are not buying and selling stock based on insider information culled from their regulation of the companies. Yet the politicians tend to dramatically outperform the S&P 500. One of the best at this is former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Her

For a while now, AI has been taking the world by storm. It’s become the hottest sector on Wall Street, consumed most media headlines and dominated as the topic of conversation.  And after reporting the results of its quarterly executive survey on artificial intelligence, Bain & Company – one of the world’s largest consulting firms
