Stocks have cooled off quite a bit this year, with most broader market indexes declining about 10% from their peaks. The silver lining amid this sell-off is that dividend yields move in the opposite direction as stock prices. Because of that, many stocks now offer even higher yields. Here are five high-quality dividend stocks that currently yield more than 5%, which you can confidently buy right now for a lucrative income stream. Brookfield Renewable (NYSE: BEPC)(NYSE: BEP) currently yields 5.2%. The leading global renewable energy producer’s payout is on a very sustainable foundation. The company generates very stable cash flow…
The Nasdaq Composite has had a dream run in the past two years, buoyed by declining inflation, interest rate cuts, and a solid artificial intelligence (AI) boom. However, that momentum seems lost now, considering the tech-heavy index has declined about 10% in 2025. The U.S. market is now concerned about a potential U.S. recession and the impact of new trade policies — fears that the Trump administration has failed to calm. In the face of heightened market volatility and low investor confidence, some prominent analysts expect the Nasdaq to see even more selling in the coming days. While this pullback is…
With the Nasdaq index in correction territory, many investors are trying to decide if it’s a buying opportunity or if they should run for the hills. A correction is marked by an index declining 10% from its all-time high, which isn’t quite as severe as a bear market. Additionally, stocks aren’t necessarily a blanket buy or sell right now. Instead, I think there are certain ones that look like great bargains and others that still seem overvalued. Two stocks that I’m still not buying even after the sell-off are Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) and Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ: PLTR). These are both…
It’s difficult to buy great growth stocks at a discount. That’s especially true when the market already expects rapid growth to occur in the near future. But Lucid Group (NASDAQ: LCID) shares could be an exception to the rule. Over the next 12 months, analysts expect Lucid’s revenue to grow by nearly 100%. Yet due to some short-term challenges, shares have lost nearly 30% of their value since the year began, pushing the stock to its lowest levels in years according to many valuation metrics. Could this be the giant buying opportunity you’ve been waiting for? The answer is likely…
Andy Jassy, CEO of Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN), in a recent shareholder letter wrote, “Generative AI may be the largest technology transformation since the cloud (which itself is still in the early stages), and perhaps since the internet.” That puts investors in front of a rare opportunity. Evercore and Morgan Stanley recently selected Amazon as a top pick due in part to its strong positioning in artificial intelligence. Specifically, Mark Mahaney at Evercore says cloud revenue growth could accelerate as Amazon monetizes AI, and Brian Nowak at Morgan Stanley sees the company as an underappreciated leader in AI across cloud and…

Occasionally, Wall Street reminds investors that stocks don’t move higher in a straight line. Over the last three weeks and change, this message has been received, loud and clear. Since Feb. 19, the iconic Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI), broad-based S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC), and growth stock-dominated Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC) have respectively lost 8.6%, 10.1%, and 13.7% of their value. You’ll note the double-digit percentage declines for the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite officially places these two indexes in correction territory. More often than not, market corrections are driven by fear, uncertainty, and investors’ emotions, which is what…
It might seem risky to chase the hottest hypergrowth stocks as the Trump administration’s unpredictable tariffs, elevated interest rates, and geopolitical tensions rattle the markets and drive many investors toward more conservative investments. But if you can look beyond those daunting near-term challenges, it might still be a good time to buy a few of those volatile growth stocks as long-term investments. Here are three hypergrowth plays that have enough momentum to head higher in a rough market this year: IonQ (NYSE: IONQ), Nu (NYSE: NU), and PDD (NASDAQ: PDD). Image source: Getty Images. IonQ is one of the few…
