Forever stocks are growth stocks that can make you rich over time. And one forever stock I like right now is Autohome (ATHM).

Hyperbole, partisanship, borrowed interest, and other BS aren’t a basis for identifying trusted investing research or choosing an investment newsletter.

The market and many stocks had a bad last week, no doubt about it—instead of slowly fading, the selling pressures have increased of late as earnings season begins in earnest. We can’t say we’re seeing a rash of breakdowns, but enough selling has occurred that we’re moving our Market Monitor into the neutral camp. A shift back in a week or two is possible if earnings season unfolds bullishly, but for now, we recommend limiting your new buying to smaller positions (maybe half or two-thirds of what you’d usually buy) and consider some names that could trend on their own (like precious metals names, for instance). You should, however, still try to hold onto shares of your most resilient performers, giving them a chance to re-emerge.

This week’s list has a few tempting growth stocks, as well as some turnaround plays that are doing well. But we’ll stick with the precious metals group, which has consolidated nicely after bolting higher last month. Allied Nevada Gold (ANV) is one of many that looks like it wants to head higher, bolstered by the price of gold and higher output.

Twilio (TWLO) has acquired SendGrid (SEND) for $2 billion, a 19% premium to its share price. What does it mean for small cap SaaS stocks moving forward?

Want a low-risk investing idea? There are probably plenty that show up at your doorstep every week. Let’s talk about cardboard stocks.

A broad-based Republican victory in the election is spurring a sharp rally on Wall Street as investors bank on investor-friendly policies.


Bitcoin, the U.S. dollar, and gold also rose. It was reported that the gold reserves of Italy and France have risen in value by about $100 billion in the last two years. It is unusual historically for gold and the U.S. dollar to rise in tandem. Gold’s steady rise is also unusual given that traders would normally take profits along the way. U.S. economic sanctions have encouraged many to move into gold beyond the long reach of the U.S. government.



It is amazing how much money is being spent on politics. More than 11,000 political groups spent almost $15 billion to influence the election. Of course, this amount seems small weighed against a global economy of about $100 trillion, with the U.S. accounting for about $23 trillion (and about 35% of global debt).



It will be very interesting who gets the top economic policy posts and the GOP strategy going forward.

The great rebalancing is unfolding as we expected with the S&P 500 struggling while other global markets are gaining traction. The performance gap between U.S. and international equities so far this year is the largest since 2017.

With that in mind, today we add a new recommendation outside U.S. borders - albeit a company whose bread and butter is the U.S. market. It’s the best of both worlds.

With the launch of Disney Plus and Apple TV Plus, the streaming wars are officially in hyperdrive. Who wins the battle of Apple vs. Disney vs. Netflix?

After a serious drought in 2023, the IPO market started picking up steam in 2024 and looks ready to heat up in 2025. Here are two upcoming IPOs to watch.

The bull market rolls on, and our portfolio continues to deliver, so I continue to recommend that you be heavily invested in stocks that help achieve your investing goals.

Today’s featured stock is making a repeat appearance, because we lost it on a shakeout earlier this year and I think it’s worth trying again.



As for the current portfolio, Tesla (TSLA) and Trulieve (TCNNF) are upgraded to buy, but we’re selling Coca Cola (KO), mainly because something’s got to go.

Crista has rating changes for three portfolio stocks and reports an earnings miss for a fourth.

AMZN stock has been the toast of Wall Street. But it’s starting to slide, and there are reasons to believe the sell-off might continue for some time.

Many are surprised to learn that the concept of telehealth wasn’t a direct result of the Covid pandemic in 2020. Indeed, the practice of online consultations between patients and medical personnel has been practiced for over 20 years, and this month’s featured company is arguably the first one to bring it to global prominence.

Inflation stays high, infrastructure week arrives, and Rivian stock surges while markets sold off a bit yesterday. The weakness yesterday halted some good rallies among Explorer stocks. We continue to explore new ideas and for this week’s recommendation, we go into the Cloud for a familiar name.

Here are highlights of this week’s earnings as reported by companies within the Cabot Undervalued Stocks Advisor portfolios. In addition, Boise Cascade (BCC) moves from Buy to Hold, and Federated Investors (FII) declared a special dividend.

This month we are changing things up a little and featuring a small company I suspect you’ve never heard of. It’s an up-and-coming Canadian media production and distribution company.

The company’s content has increasingly shown up on Netflix, AppleTV+, HBO Max, Amazon and Peacock. Much of the programming is for kids and families, which is where the growth and more significant deal flow is. But the company has also had many years of success in reality TV.



It is a speculative investment and trading liquidity is thin, so treat it appropriately and space out share purchases. Part of the strategy here is that we’re following a micro-cap fund that I respect into this trade, and their successful track record, philosophy and long-term holding strategy lends credibility beyond the increasingly visible presence of the company’s programming.

Current Market Outlook


The market put together another constructive week, with the major indexes recovering following some early weakness and more stocks setting up in constructive launching pads. That said, the rubber will likely meet the road during the next three weeks as earnings season revs up—a bunch of powerful breakouts would dramatically raise the odds that the market is beginning a sustained rally, but if the sellers feast on stocks following their reports, it’ll be best to take things slowly. For now, we remain neutral—buying a stock here or there is fine, but booking some partial profits on the way up and holding a chunk of cash on the sideline also makes sense.

This week’s list contains a mix of stocks already out to new highs, many that are setting up, and a few that are recovering well from huge declines. Our Top Pick is Restoration Hardware (RH), which is near the top of its launching pad and doesn’t report earnings until December.

Markets and especially the tech-heavy Nasdaq index led by semiconductor stocks sold off yesterday. Reasons include perceived rising protectionist and isolationist pressures in both Europe and America. Meanwhile, small-cap stocks continue to rally, and some overseas markets were also up.

As one would expect, our tech stocks pulled back somewhat while all three of our dominator stocks gained ground this week.
