After the eventful month of October, which is widely known for stock market crashes, the United States (US) stock market jumped back on a revival path in November, generally considered one of the best months of the year for investors. The relative performance of stocks during the month, compared to the year, which has been the worst year for the S&P 500 in more than a decade, revived hopes of a market rally at the turn of the year. The benchmark S&P 500 rose by more than 5% in November, up 14% compared to the beginning of October.

The month of November is also renowned for Black Friday sales, a day on which big national retailers put inventories on sale. This November, on Black Friday, the shopping crowds and sales were better compared to last year, according to some estimates, although they still fell short of the traffic seen before the advent of the pandemic. Overall, sales for US retail outlets increased by 2.3% year-on-year to a record $9.1 billion. According to the National Retail Federation (NRF), 196.7 million Americans went shopping over the Black Friday weekend.

The NRF report claims that this was nearly a 9.4% increase from last year’s 179.8 million shoppers. Moreover, Adobe Analytics reported that online sales on Cyber Monday totaled $11.3 billion, up 5.8% from 2021 and Black Friday online sales were $9.12 billion, 2.3% above 2021’s $8.92 billion. The gain that the S&P 500 registered in November brought the losses year-to-date for the index to around 14.3% at the end of November. The Dow Jones industrial average gained 5.67% during the time and the S&P MidCap 400 jumped 5.95%.

Heading into 2023, it is likely that interest rates will rise, though slower than previously expected, despite peak inflation. Higher interest rates increase the cost of capital, which discourages companies from borrowing and investing to expand their businesses. This results in a macro slowdown for investors, and even earnings growth tends to stagnate. Some of the best-performing stocks despite these concerns in November included NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA), Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMD), and Freeport-McMoRan Inc. (NYSE:FCX).

On October 31, Wynn Resorts Ltd shares soared after billionaire Tilman Fertitta acquired a 6.1% stake in the hotel and casino company.

On December 7, Stifel analyst Steven Wieczynski maintained a Buy rating on Wynn Resorts, Limited (NASDAQ:WYNN) stock and raised the price target to $109 from $85, noting that the company represents one of the most attractive investment possibilities given the significant underperformance over the last 24 months combined with favorable expectations.

At the end of the third quarter of 2022, 23 hedge funds in the database of Insider Monkey held stakes worth $191.6 million in Wynn Resorts, Limited (NASDAQ:WYNN), compared to 26 in the previous quarter worth $142.8 million.

Just like NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA), Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMD), and Freeport-McMoRan Inc. (NYSE:FCX), Wynn Resorts, Limited (NASDAQ:WYNN) is one of the stocks that registered an impressive gain in November.

In its Q3 2021 investor letter, Baron Funds, an asset management firm, highlighted a few stocks and Wynn Resorts, Limited (NASDAQ:WYNN) was one of them. Here is what the fund said:

“In the most recent quarter, we exited the Fund’s holdings in Wynn Resorts, Limited (NASDAQ:WYNN) due to: (i) ongoing COVID-19-related travel restrictions in China, Macau, and Singapore; and (ii) the Macau government’s announcement to tighten its casino regulatory oversight.”

9. Abiomed, Inc. (NASDAQ:ABMD)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 34

Gain in Share Price in November: 49%

Abiomed, Inc. (NASDAQ:ABMD) engages in the research, development, and sale of medical devices to assist or replace the pumping function of the failing heart. On November 1, Johnson & Johnson, an American multinational corporation, said that it would buy Abiomed in a $16.6 billion deal. J&J’s offered an upfront payment of $380 per share, representing a 50.7% premium to Abiomed’s last closing price. The share of Abiomed rose about 50% in premarket trade.

On October 10, Piper Sandler analyst Matt O’Brien maintained an Overweight rating on Abiomed, Inc. (NASDAQ:ABMD) stock and lowered the price target to $350 from $425, noting that models in medical technology had to be updated to account for several considerations, such as inflationary pressures and currency headwinds that had not been adequately captured.

At the end of the third quarter of 2022, 34 hedge funds in the database of Insider Monkey held stakes worth $1 billion in Abiomed, Inc. (NASDAQ:ABMD), compared to 30 in the preceding quarter worth $1.04 billion.

8. The Boeing Company (NYSE:BA)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 42

Gain in Share Price in November: 25%

The Boeing Company (NYSE:BA) designs, develops, manufactures, sells, services, and supports commercial jetliners, military aircraft, satellites, missile defense, human space flight and launch systems, and services worldwide. On December 8, Wells Fargo analyst Matthew Akers maintained an Overweight rating on The Boeing Company (NYSE:BA) stock and raised the price target to $218 from $185, noting that the company’s free cash flow can exceed its 2025-2026 target on very low investment and relatively mature mix of programs producing at a high rate.

At the end of the third quarter of 2022, 42 hedge funds in the database of Insider Monkey held stakes worth $691.7 million in The Boeing Company (NYSE:BA), compared to 51 in the preceding quarter worth $1.5 billion.

In its Q3 2022 investor letter, Meridian Funds, an asset management firm, highlighted a few stocks and The Boeing Company (NYSE:BA) was one of them. Here is what the fund said:

“We similarly remained invested in largely out-of-favour The Boeing Company (NYSE:BA) , a global leader in developing and producing commercial jet aircraft. Due to some self-inflicted wounds and a bit of bad luck, as well as dramatic declines in air travel early in the pandemic, investor sentiment for this company has simply been awful. As part of our contrarian thinking, however, we view the business as critical to global transportation needs and see multiple catalysts to improve sentiment. In addition to the current surge in air travel worldwide, ramped-up production of the 737 MAX aircraft and the pending restart of 787 Dreamliner deliveries should help turn broader sentiment. Additionally, we anticipate a meaningful inflection in cash flow as Boeing starts delivering aircraft currently in storage as well as the eventual expansion of its production in both core platforms.”

7. SolarEdge Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:SEDG)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 44

Gain in Share Price in November: 30%

SolarEdge Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:SEDG) designs, develops and sells direct current (DC) optimized inverter systems for solar photovoltaic (PV) installations worldwide.

In its Q2 2022 investor letter, ClearBridge Investments, an asset management firm, highlighted a few stocks and SolarEdge Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:SEDG) was one of them. Here is what the fund said:

“We are well-positioned to participate in the accelerating energy transition. High and rising utility costs combined with policy support are driving increased penetration of home solar plus storage systems in Europe. Israel-based SolarEdge Technologies (NASDAQ:SEDG) expects to see significant growth in solar installations in this market led by Germany and Italy, among others, where consumers are not only demanding solar on the roof but a complete system solution including batteries. This phenomenon is accelerating revenue growth for these companies.”

6. Microchip Technology Incorporated (NASDAQ:MCHP)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 45

In its Q3 2022 investor letter, Madison Funds, an asset management firm, highlighted a few stocks and Microchip Technology Incorporated (NASDAQ:MCHP) was one of them. Here is what the fund said:

“We initiated a new investment in Microchip Technology Incorporated (NASDAQ:MCHP). A microchip is a global provider of microcontrollers and analog semiconductor chips. These products are near-ubiquitous in our daily lives, whether we know it or not. They serve as the embedded brains of all sorts of electronic devices and end products that are increasingly smart and connected to the internet, such as cars, phones, kitchen appliances, factory equipment, and so on. Importantly, microcontrollers and analog chips represent a small percentage of the end product bill of materials, yet account for a disproportionately large portion of the performance characteristics of that product. Product cycles and customer retention are very long, as once designed into a product, Microchip is rarely replaced. Growth should be well above average for many years given the increasing electronification around us. In addition, management has announced its intention to return a sizeable portion of its cash flow to shareholders through dividends and share buybacks. We like this dual threat of growth together with excess cash flow.”

AI, Tariffs, Nuclear Power: One Undervalued Stock Connects ALL the Dots (Before It Explodes!)

Published on June 23, 2025 at by Inan Dogan, PhD

Artificial intelligence is the greatest investment opportunity of our lifetime. The time to invest in groundbreaking AI is now, and this stock is a steal!

AI is eating the world—and the machines behind it are ravenous.

Each ChatGPT query, each model update, each robotic breakthrough consumes massive amounts of energy. In fact, AI is already pushing global power grids to the brink.

Wall Street is pouring hundreds of billions into artificial intelligence—training smarter chatbots, automating industries, and building the digital future. But there’s one urgent question few are asking:

Where will all of that energy come from?

AI is the most electricity-hungry technology ever invented. Each data center powering large language models like ChatGPT consumes as much energy as a small city. And it’s about to get worse.

Even Sam Altman, the founder of OpenAI, issued a stark warning:

“The future of AI depends on an energy breakthrough.”

Elon Musk was even more blunt:

“AI will run out of electricity by next year.”

As the world chases faster, smarter machines, a hidden crisis is emerging behind the scenes. Power grids are strained. Electricity prices are rising. Utilities are scrambling to expand capacity.

And that’s where the real opportunity lies…

One little-known company—almost entirely overlooked by most AI investors—could be the ultimate backdoor play. It’s not a chipmaker. It’s not a cloud platform. But it might be the most important AI stock in the US owns critical energy infrastructure assets positioned to feed the coming AI energy spike.

As demand from AI data centers explodes, this company is gearing up to profit from the most valuable commodity in the digital age: electricity.

The “Toll Booth” Operator of the AI Energy Boom

It owns critical nuclear energy infrastructure assets, positioning it at the heart of America’s next-generation power strategy.
It’s one of the only global companies capable of executing large-scale, complex EPC (engineering, procurement, and construction) projects across oil, gas, renewable fuels, and industrial infrastructure.
It plays a pivotal role in U.S. LNG exportation—a sector about to explode under President Trump’s renewed “America First” energy doctrine.

Trump has made it clear: Europe and U.S. allies must buy American LNG.

And our company sits in the toll booth—collecting fees on every drop exported.

But that’s not all…

As Trump’s proposed tariffs push American manufacturers to bring their operations back home, this company will be first in line to rebuild, retrofit, and reengineer those facilities.

AI. Energy. Tariffs. Onshoring. This One Company Ties It All Together.

While the world is distracted by flashy AI tickers, a few smart investors are quietly scooping up shares of the one company powering it all from behind the scenes.

AI needs energy. Energy needs infrastructure.

And infrastructure needs a builder with experience, scale, and execution.

This company has its finger in every pie—and Wall Street is just starting to notice.

Wall Street is noticing this company also because it is quietly riding all of these tailwinds—without the sky-high valuation.

While most energy and utility firms are buried under mountains of debt and coughing up hefty interest payments just to appease bondholders…

This company is completely debt-free.

In fact, it’s sitting on a war chest of cash—equal to nearly one-third of its entire market cap.

It also owns a huge equity stake in another red-hot AI play, giving investors indirect exposure to multiple AI growth engines without paying a premium.

And here’s what the smart money has started whispering…

The Hedge Fund Secret That’s Starting to Leak Out

This stock is so off-the-radar, so absurdly undervalued, that some of the most secretive hedge fund managers in the world have begun pitching it at closed-door investment summits.

They’re sharing it quietly, away from the cameras, to rooms full of ultra-wealthy clients.

Why? Because excluding cash and investments, this company is trading at less than 7 times earnings.

And that’s for a business tied to:

The AI infrastructure supercycle
The onshoring boom driven by Trump-era tariffs
A surge in U.S. LNG exports
And a unique footprint in nuclear energy—the future of clean, reliable power

You simply won’t find another AI and energy stock this cheap… with this much upside.

This isn’t a hype stock. It’s not riding on hope.

It’s delivering real cash flows, owns critical infrastructure, and holds stakes in other major growth stories.

This is your chance to get in before the rockets take off!

Disruption is the New Name of the Game: Let’s face it, complacency breeds stagnation.

AI is the ultimate disruptor, and it’s shaking the foundations of traditional industries.

The companies that embrace AI will thrive, while the dinosaurs clinging to outdated methods will be left in the dust.

As an investor, you want to be on the side of the winners, and AI is the winning ticket.

The Talent Pool is Overflowing: The world’s brightest minds are flocking to AI.

From computer scientists to mathematicians, the next generation of innovators is pouring its energy into this field.

This influx of talent guarantees a constant stream of groundbreaking ideas and rapid advancements.

By investing in AI, you’re essentially backing the future.

The future is powered by artificial intelligence, and the time to invest is NOW.

Don’t be a spectator in this technological revolution.

Dive into the AI gold rush and watch your portfolio soar alongside the brightest minds of our generation.

This isn’t just about making money – it’s about being part of the future.

A New Dawn is Coming to U.S. Stocks

Published on June 13, 2025 at by Insider Monkey Staff

I work for one of the largest independent financial publishers in the world – representing over 1 million people in 148 countries.

We’re independently funding today’s broadcast to address something on the mind of every investor in America right now…

Should I put my money in Artificial Intelligence?

Here to answer that for us… and give away his No. 1 free AI recommendation… is 50-year Wall Street titan, Marc Chaikin.

Marc’s been a trader, stockbroker, and analyst. He was the head of the options department at a major brokerage firm and is a sought-after expert for CNBC, Fox Business, Barron’s, and Yahoo! Finance…

But what Marc’s most known for is his award-winning stock-rating system. Which determines whether a stock could shoot sky-high in the next three to six months… or come crashing down.

That’s why Marc’s work appears in every Bloomberg and Reuters terminal on the planet…

And is still used by hundreds of banks, hedge funds, and brokerages to track the billions of dollars flowing in and out of stocks each day.

He’s used this system to survive nine bear markets… create three new indices for the Nasdaq… and even predict the brutal bear market of 2022, 90 days in advance.
