Best Tech Stocks To Own For 2019

Recent graduates still covet jobs on Wall Street or at prestigious consulting firms. But high-profile tech companies are also on their short lists of potential employers.

Amazon, for example, shot up in popularity among business and engineering students, according to a new survey from Universum, a research and consulting firm.

The online retail giant ranked number 17 on this year’s list of most desirable employers for business students, up from number 26 last year. It also increased its profile among engineering students, rising to the 10th spot from number 13 last year.

“Amazon is climbing the list like crazy,” says Universum’s Jonna Sjovall, managing director, Americas. “It’s stealing votes from Facebook, Google, and Apple.”

The interest in tech companies isn’t new. Google has held onto the number one spot for both business and engineering students on Universum’s list for years, thanks to its high-profile brand, perk-laden workplace and reputation for providing newly minted grads with challenging projects.

Top 10 Blue Chip Stocks To Invest In 2019

Leave a reply

NEW YORK — Stocks fell Wednesday as the Dow dropped more than 100 points, putting more distance between the blue chips and that elusive 20,000 mark.

Dow 20,000 has been in sight for several days now, with the index getting as close as a couple of dozen points from the milestone but never reaching it.

At the 4 p.m. ET close, the Dow stood 0.6% lower for the day, off 111 points and 166 away from 20,000. Meanwhile the Nasdaq sank 0.9% and the S&P 500 lost 0.8%.

The broad decline wiped out most of the gains from the day before, when the Nasdaq composite index closed at a record high.

Trading was quiet in a light week of economic and company news before the New Year’s Day holiday weekend.

Top 10 Blue Chip Stocks To Invest In 2019: Scana Corporation(SCG)

Advisors’ Opinion:

  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    Aside from checking on whether the company achieves that aim, there are two other items investors should keep an eye on in the second half of the year. First, the company continues to make progress on its proposed merger with SCANA (NYSE:SCG). Shareholders of SCANA recently voted in favor of that transaction, and Dominion has won the approval of several regulators, including the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), the Federal Trade Commission, and the state of Georgia. However, the company still needs to get permission for the deal in North Carolina and South Carolina, with the latter one being a key sticking point due to SCANA’s failed nuclear plant in the state. While Dominion has offered several concessions in the deal to win over both customers and legislators, it might not be enough since the state wants an even bigger rate reduction. The company remains optimistic that it can close the deal by the end of this year, though it’s unclear if that will happen.

Hot High Tech Stocks To Buy For 2019

I’m always baffled when I read an article that’s negative about the practice of technical analysis. I probably shouldn’t be surprised — not because I don’t think it works (it clearly does), but because it seems folks these days have strong opinions on the extreme ends of nearly every issue or topic.

—Sponsored Link— Elites DON’T Collect Social Security — They Collect This
Nixon: $2196/mo… Rep. Cunningham: $14,667/mo… Nearing or in retirement? This could be the most important message you’ll see in 2018.

In the investing world, there are basically two schools of thought: fundamental analysis and technical analysis. And to a vast majority of investors, there’s no middle ground. Here at my premium service, Maximum Profit, we disagree. We take what we believe is the best of both worlds and combine them to create our proprietary “MP Score.” But I digress.

When I come across an article that’s dismissing technical analysis, I usually read it — even though I usually know what it’s going to say, as most of the nay-sayers usually spout the same myths. That’s because, at one point in my career, I espoused the same beliefs.

Best Stocks To Watch For 2018: Stanley Black & Decker Inc.(SWK)

Advisors’ Opinion:

  • [By Rich Duprey]

    The only disappointment here is the latest moves highlight what might have been possible with the Craftsman tool brand had Sears not ended up selling it to Stanley Black & Decker (NYSE:SWK). Although there was some creative thinking involved in the way the deal was structured, giving Sears a percentage of the revenues from Craftsman sales that Stanley generates for the next few years as well as allowing it to also make and sell Craftsman tools for the next decade, it’s a shame Sears had to let the brand go.

  • [By Chris Lange]

    The S&P 500 stock posting the largest daily percentage loss ahead of the close Friday was Stanley Black & Decker, Inc. (NYSE: SWK) which traded down about 7% at $144.02. The stocks 52-week range is $133.25 to $176.62. Volume was 3.3 million compared to the daily average volume of 1.3 million.

  • [By Money Morning Staff Reports]

    Back in January, the company sold its iconic Craftsman brand to Stanley Black & Decker Inc. (NYSE: SWK) for $900 billion, although not all of it was in an upfront payment. Sears will still carry the brand in its stores, but now they must compete with other retailers to make any profit from it. And guess who else carries it now? Amazon.com Inc. (Nasdaq: AMZN). Great for Stanley shareholders, but not so much for Sears shareholders.

  • [By Sean Williams]

    For example, Sears Holdings (NASDAQ:SHLD) has been actively attracting short-sellers in recent months. Sears has been downsizing both its Sears and Kmart locations in an effort to save money, and it’s been parting ways with a couple of its core brands. In January, Sears announced that it was divesting its Craftsman brand to Stanley Black & Decker (NYSE:SWK), which will allow Stanley Black & Decker to get the Craftsman brand into far more department stores than just Sears.
