3 Stocks to Benefit from Improving Auto Sales

2 Little-Known Electric Vehicle Stocks with Buy Ratings

The ongoing electric vehicle (EV) boom, fueled somewhat by government incentives, has delivered substantial returns to investors so far.

3 Buy-Rated Value Stocks in the Technology Sector

The technology industry’s rapid growth is expected to continue this year and beyond, owing to continued structural changes in service-sector operations. However, the continuing tech rally amid a slowly recovering economy indicates a potential asset bubble—many stocks are trading significantly higher than their earnings potential warrants. So, to capitalize on the growth of the technology sector without assuming significant risk, relatively undervalued stocks such as Intel Corporation (INTC), Dell Technologies (DELL) and ASE Technology (ASX) could be appropriate bets now. Let’s review these names more closely.

3 Electric Vehicle Stocks to Avoid in March

The electric vehicle (EV) industry has been unstoppable over the past year. The industry’s attractive growth prospects have lured in several new industry participants. But absent adequate fundamental strength and/or products in the market, the stocks of many of these companies have run up in price based solely on investor optimism. Nikola (NKLA), Electrameccanica Vehicles (SOLO), and GreenPower Motor (GP) are three such stocks. They are currently trading at sky-high valuations, though we believe they lack the requisite fundamental strength to justify those valuations. So, these stocks are best avoided now.
