For the near-term minded, QS may seem like a buy on weakness, ahead of
Archer Aviation (NYSE:ACHR) is a speculative aviation stock that holds a $1.78 billion market cap, ranking 70th in the Aerospace & Defense sector.

There’s no foolproof method for making money in the stock market, and, in my view, no one should rely on any one technique for picking stocks.

Warren Buffett likes to say that you only need to be right about one or two stocks to succeed as an investor. This helps to explain why the Oracle of Omaha’s portfolio is concentrated in only a handful of stocks. Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), Buffett’s biggest position, accounts for nearly half (46%) of his $354 billion investment
There’s increasing talk about a potential market crash. Several commentators have drawn parallels between 2023 and 1987 in that both years began with a massive run-up in stocks even while underlying fundamentals were fairly flimsy. The run in 1987 culminated in a historic market crash on October 19th of that year. Will history repeat? Maybe
