Investing in growing businesses can be an excellent way to turn a $1,000 investment into much more in the long term. Now, however, may be a tricky time to invest given that valuations for many stocks are through the roof. Finding a good deal out there can be challenging. However, three stocks that I think are among the best all-around buys right now are Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) , American Express (NYSE: AXP) , and PDD Holdings (NASDAQ: PDD) . They can be great stocks to invest $1,000 in today. Although they've been struggling this year, here's why I'm confident they can and will bounce back. Image source: Getty Images. Continue reading
Eli Lilly (NYSE: LLY) became the first $1 trillion pharmaceutical company late last year, built on the strength of its GLP-1 empire used for diabetes and weight loss.

Eli Lilly (NYSE: LLY) became the first $1 trillion pharmaceutical company late last year, built on the strength of its GLP-1 empire used for diabetes and weight loss. Pharmaceutical stocks have struggled in 2026, but Eli Lilly's shares are up more than 45% over the past year. And over the past three months, its pedestrian 2% rise has outpaced its competitors. The Indianapolis-based healthcare company has several catalysts that should continue to drive its share growth, led by its expanded GLP-1 earnings, its willingness to invest its cash to improve its pipeline through acquisitions, and the continued rise of its high-margin specialty drugs. Here's more on all three. Image source: Getty Images. Continue reading

Sandwish/iStock via Getty Images As we enter the second half of 2026, I expect the stock market to be much rockier and more volatile than in the first half of the year. Valuations are stretched to extremes, especially among the AI-linked semiconductor and hardware stocks that have driven the large majority of this year's gains. There is an opportunity to buy beaten-down software stocks that have over-corrected downward, but in this industry we have to be very selective and ensure that we aren't buying into value traps. Sprinklr ( CXM ), a customer experience management software platform, is one of those value traps. The company continues to showcase declining growth rates alongside poorer overall fundamentals, which has contributed to the stock's ~25% decline since January. Unfortunately, I don't see a light at the end of this tunnel, especially after the company's poor Q1 earnings release, which also featured a slight cut to full-year guidance expectations. Data by YCharts I last wrote a sell article on Sprinklr in March, when the stock was trading just shy of $6 per share. Since then, Sprinklr has continued to bleed value, drastically underperforming the S&P 500, which has rallied to new highs. There are obvious performance gaps here in Sprinklr vis-a-vis other companies in the software sector, which is what drives me to reiterate my sell rating on this stock. There are two core drivers of the bear narrative for Sprinklr that investors need to be aware of that clearly delineate Sprinklr as a net loser in the AI race. The first, of course, is that revenue growth is slowing down to a near-standstill. One of the core proof points that software companies are not at risk of any near-term AI disruption is a buildup in backlog. Long-term customer commitments, in particular, help to demonstrate that customers aren't planning on replacing software products anytime soon. Sprinklr has seen very weak backlog growth. In the most recent quarter, RPO of $1.04 billion grew 10% y/...
Kathrin Ziegler/DigitalVision via Getty Images I confess. So far, I have not covered myself with glory regarding my coverage of HEICO Corporation ( HEI ). My initial rating on 9/9/24 was “Sell.” I never had anything against HEI's business. I like it a lot. The company makes and sells spare parts for aerospace. On paper, that sounds monotonously ordinary. But this is no ordinary parts business. As ...
Kathrin Ziegler/DigitalVision via Getty Images I confess. So far, I have not covered myself with glory regarding my coverage of HEICO Corporation ( HEI ). My initial rating on 9/9/24 was “Sell.” I never had anything against HEI's business. I like it a lot. The company makes and sells spare parts for aerospace. On paper, that sounds monotonously ordinary. But this is no ordinary parts business. As I’ll explain below, I think we can say HEI has a competitive moat. My concern is and always has been about the stock’s valuation. On 12/21/25 , after reviewing my work for the umpteenth time, I changed my view. I recognized that in assessing P/E, I overemphasized growth and did not adequately consider company quality, which is an essential (but often underappreciated) element of P/E. That write-up contained a detailed discussion on the theoretical foundations underlying P/E. And after a deep dive into HEI’s company quality, I decided that my prior view was too harsh. So I upgraded its stock to “Hold.” Then, on 5/27/26, the company reported April quarter (fiscal year's end October 31) results that blew past estimates. You can see in the quarterly Seeking Alpha EPS Surprise chart below that HEI was much stronger than it usually has been. Seeking Alpha The stock jumped 11.33% on May 28, the first trading day after the news. It added a pittance, 0.90%, the next day. Then, the next trading day, it fell 4.29%. Trading since then has been uneventful. But let’s put things in perspective. Here's a visual picture of HEI’s performance since my first write-up. Seeking Alpha Notice the stock has moved more or less in line with the S&P 500 until 2026. My earlier “Sell” ratings (which, in my relative-to-the-market approach), imply below-average performance. I know HEI trailed the S&P 500, but we can't be overly precise. Had I anticipated the performance we got, I would not have said, “Sell.” My earlier bearishness was, indeed, an overreaction to the P/E. Then, the stock struggled, likely ...

Getty Images Explore why rare earths and copper are critical to AI, defense and electrification, how supply vulnerabilities are reshaping commodity markets, and what investors should watch in resource equities. Rare earths and copper are no longer niche commodity stories. They sit at the center of several of the world’s most urgent structural themes: AI infrastructure, defense modernization, grid expansion and supply chain security. Recent price action reflects more than short-term geopolitical volatility. Copper has rallied near all-time highs, while rare earth prices remain elevated as export controls, national security concerns and underinvestment expose the limits of today’s supply chains. In rare earths especially, the challenge is not simply mining more material. It is building an integrated, ex-China supply chain that can span mining, separation, alloying, magnet production and recycling. Highlights from the conversation: Supply chain vulnerabilities are being exposed — Recent geopolitical events have again highlighted how fragile commodity supply chains can be. While energy markets often receive the most attention, the impact has extended into metals, mining inputs and critical materials. The result may be continued pressure on both volumes and production costs, creating a more supportive environment for select commodities. Rare earth prices reflect geopolitical scarcity — Neodymium-praseodymium, often used as a proxy for rare earth pricing, has experienced significant volatility driven by export controls and geopolitical tension. China controls the dominant share of rare earth supply and has restricted exports of both rare earth materials and magnet-making equipment. With limited near-term relief, rare earth prices may remain supported. Rare earths have an outsized economic impact — Rare earths represent a small physical market, but they play an essential role in aerospace, defense, electronics, communications and transportation. Substitution is difficult i...
