Recovering from a three-day sell-off, shares of Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE: BABA) stock bounced back on Thursday and are up 7.2% as of 11:11 a.m. ET. Alibaba's bounce back appears tied to a Bloomberg report yesterday that the company is "weighing options" to dispose of its 30% stake in Weibo (NASDAQ: WB), the "Chinese Twitter," and may sell its Weibo shares to "a state-owned firm." There are at least a couple of reasons why such a move could be good for Alibaba.

Pinterest (NYSE: PINS) had a rough go of it in 2021. Let's look closer at its prospects and determine if Pinterest's stock has a chance to hit $100 in 2022. Topmost of the reasons for Pinterest's stock decline has been the downward trend in monthly active users (MAU) as economies reopened.

The need of a robust charging infrastructure to support the growth of electric vehicles (EVs) is undisputed. What isn't as clear is which players will be instrumental in developing this infrastructure and, more importantly, whether can they do this profitably.

Let’s talk about losses. Specifically, let’s talk about individual stock losses during a time of generally rising markets. While these situations can define stocks that are fundamentally unsound, they can also highlight stocks that are primed for rapid gains. To start with, we’re still in a long-term bullish trend. It got started back in March of 2020, when the economy hit bottom during the initial stage of the pandemic crisis. Since then, that first bounce back up has turned into a strong and s

The explosive price action on meme stocks like AMC (NYSE: AMC) and Gamestop (NYSE: GME) in 2021 put the idea of a "short squeeze" on the minds of retail investors, who are now looking for the next potential stock that might vault higher. While these meme stocks ended up being extreme squeezes, to a lesser extent short-sellers have beaten down insurance tech company Lemonade (NYSE: LMND) as well. What is a short squeeze?

History and multiple data points suggest that a stock market crash or a steep correction could be on the horizon. If you're an investor who grimaces at the thought of market volatility, buying safe stocks is a good way to ensure you'll sleep well at night.

The year is winding down, and it’s time for Wall Street’s analysts to flag their top picks for the coming year. It’s a time-honored tradition, in most walks of life, to take a sometimes tongue-in-cheek look at what lies ahead, and to start giving advice on the say-so of a metaphorical crystal ball. Analysts have been analyzing each stock carefully, looking at its past and current performance, its trends on a variety of time frames, management’s plans – the analysts take everything into account.

Analyst Itay Michaeli's new price target for Tesla is $262, which is well below Wall Street's mean consensus.

The data don’t lie: Since 1871, according to data from Yale University’s Robert Shiller, the S&P 500’s (SPX) dividends per share (DPS) have grown at a 3.7% annualized pace. Don’t try to dismiss dividends’ robust growth rate on the grounds that it traces largely to the early years in Shiller’s 150-year database. A similar story is told by the volatility of DPS’ and EPS’ growth rates.

The English physicist Isaac Newton's first law of motion can also indirectly be applied to dividend investing. Newton's physics standard, which says an object in motion tends to stay in motion, applies to how management at most companies tends to view dividends. To paraphrase, a dividend that is growing each year tends to stay growing with each passing year.

These three stocks are core holdings in my portfolio, and new investors should consider doing the same.
