2022 so far has been a challenging time to invest. Worries about pending interest rate hikes have put pressure on stocks. More recently, geopolitics has resulted in additional volatility.

It’s a statement that you’ve heard electric vehicles are the future. If that’s the case, why are some of the most-hyped electric vehicle stocks performing so poorly?

It’s hard to find a reasonable argument against investing in Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT).

Aside from the obvious potential for human suffering, I’ve realized why the Russia-Ukraine crisis is so upsetting to me — I hate relying on other people. Maybe it’s the only child in me speaking.

That’s especially the case when you consider insider stocks or transactions that corporate insiders — executives, high-level employees and major stakeholders — execute on the companies with which they are associated.

In early 2019, I made a really bold call that seemed totally counterintuitive at the time. I told investors to buy the dip in Roku (NASDAQ:ROKU) after the streaming player’s stock had crashed in December 2018. Amid the collapse, most investors were running away from Roku.
