Top 5 Clean Energy Stocks To Invest In 2019

Leave a reply

The global market for alternative energy soared to $1.35 trillion last year, and that’s just the beginning of this explosive industry growth.

For savvy investors, right now is the perfect time to get in early on alternative energy investments as renewable energy begins overtaking the energy market.

You see, the need for energy is a constant across the globe. And demand for energy is only going up. In fact, the EIA forecasts the demand for energy worldwide will rise another 25% by 2040.

That sort of growth alone makes investing in energy a profitable strategy. But the source of the world’s energy is rapidly changing.

The EIA forecasts clean energy investments like solar, wind, and hydro could pass coal and natural gas as the top source for electrical power in the United States by 2040.

    Financial services companies rely on the health of the markets to bring them business from the large institutions that are their best customers.

Top 10 Low Price Stocks To Invest In 2019

Leave a reply

Retirement investors want sure things. There isn’t enough time to make up for stocks that just fall into the ground, never to return. So considering how awful energy has been for the past couple of years, it’s probably surprising to see “energy stocks” and “retirement” mentioned in the same vicinity.

Sustained low oil and natural gas prices have negatively impacted energy stocks. OK, that’s putting it mildly. Low prices have outright strangled some companies right out of business, and has made life miserable for the vast majority of the sector.

And considering many retirement investors were sucked in by the plentiful dividends in the energy sector, they know the pain. And they’re probably not too forgiving.

Top 10 Low Price Stocks To Invest In 2019: Foot Locker, Inc.(FL)

Advisors’ Opinion:

  • [By JJ Kinahan]

    With retail earnings season pretty much over, one key takeaway is how many so-called “brick-and-mortar” stores have found ways to keep customers coming in the doors rather than simply pointing and clicking. Many retailers had very good same-store sales, and what that shows is the traffic is still there for them. The challenge for retailers now is converting traffic to buyers, and retailers appear to have gotten much more creative and much better at helping their clients. About 70 percent of specialty retailers—which are smaller, niche-type stores—beat Wall Street’s forecasts for the quarter, according to Bloomberg research, and the S&P 500 Specialty Retail Index has actually outperformed the S&P 500 Internet Index since mid-March. Strong results reported by specialty retailers like Foot Locker, Inc. (NYSE: FL) and Tiffany & Co. (NYSE: TIF) last week have helped buttress the sector.

Advisors’ Opinion:

    Cirrus announced that the first product containing its new ANC chip last spring. In the most recent conference call, the company mentioned that it was in a new headset with a major OEM. A search looking for design breakdowns for Cirrus revealed two new products with Cirrus ANC inside. ABI Research reported finding the Cirrus ANC chip, 47L50C, inside replacing a chip from “Maxim MAX98730” The rest of the parts in the Studio 3 were the same as its predecessor Solo3. Beats increased the price on the Studio 3 by $50. ABI also found the 47L50C inside one of the new Samsung (OTC:SSNLF) products adding this statement, “Cirrus seems to be doing quite well in the ANC (Active noise cancellation) market as this is the second win we have seen (47L51b found in the Samsung ANC earbuds) in blooming ANC market.” There appear to be two new sets of earbuds from Samsung, a wired and a wireless. It is unclear to us which or perhaps both could have the new Cirrus chip inside. We know of at least three major brands with Cirrus ANC inside. The list continues to grow. We note we have yet to find a product with both parts, mics and codec. The four freshly washed E9s (ABBA) have eased the consist across the aligned switch onto the main with the semaphore straight up green-lighting the ANC Express and for those aboard, sensing the QUIET of the early morn.

    That would be South Korean memory giants Samsung (NASDAQOTH:SSNLF) and SK Hynix.

One way that we Fools generate investment ideas is by poring through SEC filings of billionaire investors. These filings track the recent buy and sell decisions of some of the smartest money managers in the world, so keeping an eye on what these investors are up to makes a lot of sense.

With that in mind, we asked a team of Fools each to highlight a stock that a billionaire investor has been selling recently. Read on to see why they chose Cheniere Energy (NYSEMKT:LNG), Activision Blizzard (NASDAQ:ATVI), Suncor Energy (NYSE:SU), MGIC Investment Corporation (NYSE:MTG), and Extended Stay America (NYSE:STAY).

Over the past couple of years, he has assembled a very large position in LNG (liquefied natural gas) exporter Cheniere Energy, but that position was reduced this past quarter.

    Wall Street had its Cinco de Mayo celebration a day early, as the Dow Jones Industrial Average finished the session with a gain of more than 330 points. Investors were excited about what they saw as a Goldilocks-like reading on the U.S. economy in the April employment report, which featured modest job growth, rock-bottom unemployment rates, and slow enough wage growth to quell inflation fears and give the Federal Reserve latitude to raise interest rates more slowly going forward. Yet some companies still suffered at least perceived setbacks that sent their shares lower. Fluor (NYSE:FLR), Arista Networks (NYSE:ANET), and Appian (NASDAQ:APPN) were among the worst performers on the day. Here’s why they did so poorly.

    Some reasons for my bearishness on retail stocks:

    Higher Energy Prices. Oil prices have rallied dramatically and back to 2014 levels, rising from about $35 a barrel in early 2016 to around $67 Thursday. That’s bad news for U.S. retailers, as rising oil prices historically squeeze consumer disposable incomes. That’s one reason why I’ve been consistently raising my short exposure to retail and plan to continue doing so. Shaky Same-Store Sales Growth. Recent improvements to same-store sales at Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF) , Urban Outfitters (URBN) , Dillard’s (DDS) , Gap Inc. (GPS) and Macy’s (M) come against downgraded expectations, and might not be sustainable anyway. No Deal for Nordstrom (JWN) . The Nordstrom family has apparently abandoned plans to take its namesake company private. I had expressed concerns that this would happen. Higher Interest Rates. A rise in the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR) has recently accelerated. That’s bad news for retailers, as many variable-rate consumer debts (particularly mortgages) key off of the LIBOR. This will likely put a damper on mortgage refinancings — something that many see as an important ingredient for personal-consumption expenditures.
