Big Tech Wins on Earnings, But Poor Guidance Creates Buying Opportunities

Investors are looking for guidance right now, and many companies simply aren’t delivering. That’s a lingering effect of the pandemic that will eventually go away. Until then, even a company that reports great earnings for the prior quarter can see their shares sell off as traders look forward. That’s been the case just this week with major companies reporting such as Microsoft (MSFT) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD). Both companies saw an immediate drop in share price when they reported earnings ...

China, which banned cryptocurrency mining. While the global mining network is reestablishing itself in friendlier jurisdictions, there’s rising concern over how long that will take and if the market will be flooded with used mining equipment. Such equipment is usually in the form of high-end graphics cards, which could ...

This Hated Stock Has Massive Rebound Potential

A number of smaller tech companies exploded at the start of the year on the back of retail interest. Some of that speculation quickly died out.

What’s old can often be new again in tech. Case in point? International Business Machines (IBM). The tech giant is starting to show some signs of life as it pivots away from computer mainframes and more towards software and services. That allowed the company to see a 3 percent rise in revenue compared to a year ago. Compared to its history of losses over the past few years, it looks like a start in the right direction. However, despite those solid headline ...

This Original Silicon Valley Giant Might Jump to New Heights

Wall Street loves nothing more than a good rumor. Rumors about a potential merger often involve multiple companies. That includes the two companies that might merge, as well as any competitors or big institutions that might be investing. Last week, a rumor broke that Intel (INTC) is looking to buy GlobalFoundries, a privately held firm. If that’s the case, shares might end up going on a winning streak once again. That’s because GlobalFoundries is a big player in manufacturing semiconductors, which would ...
