Financial markets are always uncertain, but sometimes they are more uncertain. Right now, geopolitical concerns have investors on edge, with the market whipsawing, sometimes within the same day, between large losses and large gains. High-yield dividend stocks like Realty Income (O 0.77%) and Federal Realty (FRT 0.34%) let you focus on something other than stock prices. Boring is beautiful in turbulent times Realty Income is one of the most boring real estate investment trusts (REITs) you'll come across. That is by design, as the company's core goal is to provide investors with a reliable and growing dividend. It has achieved that aim, noting it has three decades of annual dividend increases. The company's portfolio is focused on single-tenant retail properties leased on a net basis. A net lease requires the tenant to pay most property-level operating costs. With more than 15,500 properties across the United States and Europe, Realty Income is by far the largest player in the net lease space. It is a tortoise, given its large size, but slow and steady is pretty attractive in turbulent times. And so is the stock's lofty 4.8% dividend yield.

Unlike Realty Income, Federal Realty takes a quality-over-quantity approach, owning a portfolio of only about 100 properties. That said, the properties are much larger, and management ensures they are in high-population areas with wealthy residents and high barriers to entry.

Key Points Unlike too many other behemoth companies, Microsoft’s sheer size isn’t a liability or hurdle to overcome. It’s a tool to leverage. Use the stock’s recent weakness to step into a stake in Coca-Cola. It won’t remain “on sale” forever. Shares of credit card middleman Visa are undervalued because the company’s potential is being underestimated. 10 stocks we like better than Microsoft › When investors have some idle cash to put to work, most of the time, they'll look for stocks they don't already own. And for good reason. More diversification is a good thing. It's not always easy to do, though. Sometimes the best stocks for a particular investor are already in their portfolio. In these instances, it's not wrong to buy more of a great name you're already holding. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now, when you join Stock Advisor. See the stocks » With that as the backdrop, here's a rundown of three fantastic stocks you may well already own, but can safely double up on, especially following each ticker's recent weakness. 1. Microsoft Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) may be an aging name contending with the downside of its sheer size. But this old dog's still got plenty of fight left in it. Last quarter's top line of $77.7 billion was up 18% year over year, with $30.8 billion of that being turned into net income. If the software giant is supposed to be past its prime, somebody clearly forget to give Microsoft the message. This continued growth is rooted in two factors that aren't apt to unravel anytime soon... if ever. The first of these is its sheer dominance. Not only does the company remain a powerhouse within the personal productivity software space, its Windows operating system is installed on roughly two-thirds of the world's computers, according to numbers from Statcounter. This degree of resilient market penetration suggests Microsoft has become a permanent fixture within the per...

Benjamin Nygren’s 19th goal of the season sent Celtic into second place in the Scottish Premiership as the champions won at Aberdeen. Nygren combined with his fellow substitute James Forrest to put the visitors back in front midway through the second half with a deft finish. The Swede faced a lengthy wait for confirmation as the offside lines were drawn but Gavin Molloy’s outstretched foot was ultimately judged to have played the midfielder on. Kieran Tierney had followed up his goal against Rangers on Sunday with an early opener but Kevin Nisbet soon levelled from the spot for Aberdeen, who were being watched by managerial candidate Sandro Schwarz. Celtic held out to record a first win in three league games, which put them a point above Rangers and five behind leaders Hearts. The former Mainz, Hertha Berlin, Dynamo Moscow and New York Red Bulls manager Schwarz was in the main stand at Pittodrie after emerging as a candidate in Aberdeen’s two-month search for a replacement for the sacked Jimmy Thelin. The Dons had gone five league games without a win and the interim manager, Peter Leven, made four changes with the captain Graeme Shinnie dropping to the bench. The former Celtic midfielder Stuart Armstrong was among those coming in. The Celtic manager, Martin O’Neill, handed starts to Reo Hatate, Sebastian Tounekti and Luke McCowan after they helped the champions fight back for a draw at Ibrox after coming off the bench. Tomas Cvancara started upfront with Daizen Maeda on the bench. There was a late change to O’Neill’s team after Dane Murray dropped out during the warm-up. The on-loan Brentford centre-back Benjamin Arthur was drafted in for his first start. View image in fullscreen Celtic’s Benjamin Nygren scores his side’s second at Aberdeen.

Defense names, including Lockheed Martin and Palantir Technologies, stayed elevated after earlier wartime gains, while semiconductor leaders Micron Technology and Intel rebounded from the prior session’s rout, aided by a powerful rally in crypto proxy Coinbase Global . It was an all-around better day for the markets in the U.S., with gains across all three indexes. While Iran is denying earlier reports that it reached out to discuss peace, the U.S.-Israel-Iran conflict may have simmered somewhat for now, stabilizing oil and gas prices after two volatile days. Further helping move U.S. markets higher was a jobs report showing that private-sector employment grew by 63,000 in February, exceeding analysts’ expectations of 48,000. Continue reading

Senate Republicans on Wednesday voted down an attempt to require Donald Trump receive Congress’s permission before continuing the war with Iran, batting aside concerns from Democrats that the campaign is illegal and risks plunging the United States into a prolonged conflict. The 47-53 vote on a war powers resolution introduced by Virginia Democrat Tim Kaine broke largely along party lines. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania was the sole Democrat to vote against the measure, while Rand Paul of Kentucky was the only member of the Republican majority to support the resolution. The measure would have forced an end to the US air and naval campaign against Iran and require the president to go to Congress before re-entering the war. Before the vote, Democratic senator Chris Murphy said the resolution was necessary to prevent Trump from repeating in Iran the follies of previous US presidents in Afghanistan, Libya and elsewhere. “The difference between Democrats and Republicans is that Republicans have learned nothing. Decades of American hubris in the Middle East, believing that US troops, US planes, US guns and US bombs could fundamentally change realities in a far off land. Democrats have learned our lesson,” Murphy said. Trump ordered the military campaign after months of fruitless negotiations with Tehran intended to resolve the question of their nuclear program. While he notified a small group of top lawmakers beforehand, Kaine argued that the president needs permission from Congress to continue a conflict that has already resulted in the deaths of US soldiers. “Here we are in a war that has cost American lives, that is leading to chaos throughout the region, that threatens to go bigger and bigger and bigger. And I’m asking the Senate to do what the framers of the constitution said we should do: debate and vote about matters of war,” Kaine said before the vote. But Republicans countered by arguing that Trump had not broken the law, while focusing on the longstanding enmity...

Shares closed Wednesday at $4.84, up 5.45%. Shares moved higher after the company reported another month of strong delivery growth and said its cumulative deliveries have topped one million vehicles. Investors are closely watching how this delivery momentum translates into upcoming earnings. Trading volume reached 52.5 million shares, coming in nearly 21% above its three-month average of 43.2 million shares. Nio IPO'd in 2018 and has fallen 27% since going public. How the markets moved today The S&P 500 (^GSPC +0.78%) added 0.77% to finish Wednesday at 6,869, while the Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC +1.29%) gained 1.29% to close at 22,807.

What this means for investors Nio had a strong year of deliveries in 2025 and has now passed the million-vehicle milestone. More importantly for investors, the company announced in early February that it expects to report an adjusted operating profit of at least $100 million for Q4. Nio appears to be keeping the sales momentum going. In a note to clients, Deutsche Bank (DB +1.03%) reported the company started March strong with new orders in the first three days of the month representing the highest 2026 weekly rate to date. Nio should report full fourth-quarter results later this month. Investors will listen for more commentary surrounding expectations on profitability, and watch how the stock reacts to that update.

As of this writing, the company's share price is up 645% from market close on the day of its public debut. On the other hand, the stock trades down 64% from its all-time high. With power demand surging in connection with the scaling of artificial intelligence (AI) data centers, Oklo has been garnering interest from investors seeking innovative energy plays. Oklo specializes in small modular reactors (SMRs) that could wind up being great power sources for data centers, but there's still a lot of uncertainty regarding its commercialization timeline -- and whether its tech will secure the necessary regulatory approvals and deliver results in line with the company's forecasts. Will AI create the world's first trillionaire? Our team just released a report on the one little-known company, called an "Indispensable Monopoly" providing the critical technology Nvidia and Intel both need. Continue » Could AI-related demand turn Oklo into a dividend giant? In January, Oklo announced that it had entered into a partnership with Meta Platforms. The deal sees Meta providing funding to develop a nuclear reactor in Ohio that is scheduled to generate at least 1.2 gigawatts (GW) of power for the tech giant. The first part of the reactor project is projected to come online by 2030. Oklo currently has a market capitalization of roughly $9.8 billion. Meanwhile, the company has yet to record any revenue from actual power-generating activities -- let alone profits. The deal with Meta represents a meaningful vote of confidence from o...

Chee Siong Teh/iStock via Getty Images ET Stock: Topline Growth Amid Mixed Q4 I last analyzed Energy Transfer LP Common Units stock ( ET ) on Jan 27 with an article titled “Energy Transfer: Why Super Investors Like It At $17.” The article focused on the latest disclosures filed by professional fund managers and concluded with a hold rating for ET stock. Since then, there have been a few new developments worth noting. In this article, I will focus on the top 3 on my list: the updates provided in its FQ4 2025 earnings report (ER), its latest dividend declaration, and also the changes in oil prices due to the evolving geopolitical conflicts, especially those involving Iran . These developments have led me to see the potential of 2025 Q4 as a turning point for the stock. Despite the various uncertainties and growth pressures facing the company, I see some encouraging signs that help to counterbalance the risks and make the stock a solid hold. The first encouraging sign is the growth of topline reported in Q4 2025. To wit, the chart below summarizes the financial performance of Energy Transfer in recent quarters. As seen, the company has been facing revenue declines in recent quarters and often missed both consensus estimates on both lines. In 2025 alone, ET reported three consecutive quarters of declining revenue on a YOY basis: a -2.82% drop in FQ1 2025, a -7.17% drop in FQ2, and a -3.94% dip in FQ3. However, in Q4, the company reported revenue of $25.32B, marking a sharp 29.57% YOY increase that beat expectations by $1.28B. Seeking Alpha ET Stock: Dividend Growth In Focus The picture is not all rosy, though. Earnings still underperformed, with EPS dialing in at $0.25, compared to $0.29 a year ago, and falling below consensus by a large gap of $0.11. In tandem, the latest dividend declaration continues to show growth pressure. More specifically, the table below displays the dividend declarations from ET in recent quarters. On the positive side, the company kept maintai...

Warren Buffett is no longer the CEO of Berkshire Hathaway (BRKA +1.34%)(BRKB +1.22%). That makes Berkshire's last reporting period -- which reflects the company's full-year results from 2025 -- our last chance to see directly which stocks Buffett gave the green light to buy, and which stocks he approved for sale. Last quarter, Berkshire's portfolio didn't change much. But there were some massive stock sales, as well as a few notable buys. In fact, one energy stock saw a sizable increase in weighting. Previously, Berkshire owned around 122 million shares of this global oil producer. But after an 8 million share purchase last quarter, this company now comprises 7.24% of Berkshire's entire portfolio. If you take a closer look, it's no surprise why Buffett is so bullish on this well-known stock that has been in Berkshire's portfolio since 2020. Chevron stock offers compelling diversification benefits The oil stock that Berkshire Hathaway added to last quarter is none other than Chevron (CVX 1.45%), one of the largest energy companies in the world. Buffett isn't new to energy investing. He has purchased stocks of other oil companies in the past with mixed success. But his bet on Chevron is one of the largest in Berkshire's history. And it's not hard to speculate why.

This record production allowed the company to return $26 billion to shareholders in the form of dividends and share buybacks -- an 18% increase over the year prior. But here's the thing: Chevron stock rose just 1.5% in 2025. And while the 3.8% dividend yield added to that total return, the stock's performance simply didn't match record production levels. Why? The simplest answer is low oil prices. Competitor E...

Tinpixels Payment processing firms Visa ( V ) and Mastercard ( MA ) snapped six straight sessions of gains on Wednesday. The former lost 0.11% to end at $320.47, while the latter closed 0.27% lower at $522.92. Since February 24, Visa has gained 4.43%, while Mastercard added 5.29%. The rise came after stocks of both companies declined heavily in the previous session on the back of a research report that revived fears that stablecoin-based technology will obviate the need for traditional card networks. V registered a 4.50% fall, while MA plunged 5.77% Specific to credit card payment stocks, the Citrini Research note theorized that agentic AI turned to stablecoin-based systems to execute transactions more cheaply. However, Seeking Alpha analyst Secret Compounders defended Mastercard, arguing that the article ignores deeply ingrained consumer habits and Mastercard's core value proposition. "Consumers actively prefer credit cards because they view the friction as a benefit, not a problem. They love being able to easily dispute charges at the end of the month while earning cash back on every swipe. The 2-3% interchange fee is certainly a complaint for the merchants who pay it. Today, many alternative payment systems are formed because of merchant pushback,” it said. MA’s value-added services segment, which includes cybersecurity and data monetization, is a key and often overlooked growth driver, the analyst additionally noted. Meanwhile, Ray Merola was bullish on Visa with a Buy rating on the back of record outstanding financial and operational results. Both companies have been rated as Buy by Seeking Alpha analysts, while Wall Street analysts have issued a Strong Buy call. As per Seeking Alpha’s quant rating, both V and MA have been rated Hold.
