After a war-driven sell-off sent the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) cratering nearly 10% in March, the index has come roaring back in April. The rally has been driven by the usual suspects: Semiconductor and other artificial intelligence stocks more prevalent in the Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC), some of which were hardest hit in the first

For the last three years, Nvidia (NVDA +4.30%) has been the most dominant force in the artificial intelligence (AI) data center boom. Some recent moves by the company, however, signal a calculated expansion into another pocket of AI infrastructure: wireless networks. According to 13F filings, Nvidia holds roughly 8% of its investment portfolio in Nokia
The S&P 500 index (^GSPC +0.80%) continues to prove the bears wrong. The benchmark’s level has risen 8% in April (as of April 22). And it has produced a total return of 300% in the past decade. After such a phenomenal performance that’s significantly better than its average historical return of 10%, investors might consider
Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) is up a mind-numbing 21,840% over the last decade. At first glance, it might seem like a stock that was a generational buy rather than one that can still deliver incredible returns. The same goes for its “Magnificent Seven” peers. Here’s why Nvidia still has a long runway for growth and why

For as much good as the ETF industry has done in offering hundreds of ultra-cheap investment products targeting almost every market, sector, and theme, they’re not perfect. We often hear the phrase “set it and forget it” when it comes to investing. I’ve used it several times myself. While that theory works at a high
The rumors are true: SpaceX is officially looking to go public. Recent filings suggest that the company is targeting an IPO sometime in June.

The stock market looks like it’s headed for a 1999 moment, BCA Research says. Loading audio narration… The investment research firm said it sees the potential for an AI-fueled “melt-up” in the stock market— a sharp rally in stocks that other forecasters have predicted could be followed by a brutal meltdown.

There’s no doubt that the tech sector had a rough first few months of 2026. Over the first three months, the tech sector was the worst-performing S&P 500 sector by a considerable margin. However, things have reversed course for the better in April. From April 1 to April 21, tech has been the best-performing S&P
The stock market has already taken investors for a ride in 2026. After a relatively calm first two months of the year, the S&P 500 fell 9% only to turn around and bounce 12% higher off the lows. The uncertain direction of the Iran war, inflation, and economic growth has most people focused on what
Nvidia (NVDA +4.30%) became the world’s most valuable company because it is a critical part of the AI build-out. Companies need Nvidia chips for computational power, but it turns out Nvidia needs another company to manufacture its chips. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.
