[ad_1] Image source: Getty Images Despite a very solid 2025, the Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) share price has just come off its highs. And some investors are worrying that a full-blown crash might be on the cards for 2026? I think a number of the risks might be less significant than some investors seem to believe. But there are definitely some threats and challenges it’s getting very hard to ignore. Growth potential One big question with Nvidia is how long can it maintain its extraordinarily impressive revenue growth? After all, sales have more than doubled in 2025 after increasing 125% in 2024.…

[ad_1] Image source: Getty Images By historical standards, it’s been a pretty good year for the FTSE 100. Since the start of 2025, the index has gained approximately a fifth. And unless something dramatic happens today (23 December) or tomorrow, we know who will be the Footsie’s Christmas number one. Any guesses? A gold star Yes, it’s Fresnillo, the Mexican-based gold and silver producer. Its share price has more than trebled this year. On the back of soaring metals prices – gold reached a record high in October – it’s been the FTSE 100’s star performer. But I can’t see…
[ad_1] Image source: Getty Images A monthly income of £8,333 from dividends in a Stocks and Shares ISA would be a dream come true for many. Even in future, it would likely provide most with a more comfortable existence, especially if it’s supplemented other forms of income. To put £8,333 a month into perspective, we’re talking about an annual tax-free income of £100,000. And according to the latest Retirement Living Standards (based on independent research by Loughborough University), this would be more than double what it officially defines as a ‘comfortable’ retirement for one person. But how big would the…
[ad_1] Image source: Getty Images Traditionally, the FTSE 250 has a higher dividend yield than the FTSE 100. At the moment, this still holds true, with the index yielding 3.44% compared to its big brother at 3.04%. Based on trying to target stocks with an above-average yield in the FTSE 250, here are the numbers involved in trying to target a £15k annual income. Main considerations Three main factors go into making this strategy a success. The first is the timeframe. As we all know, get-rich-quick schemes are often fraught with danger. Therefore, having a long-term investment time horizon often…
[ad_1] Image source: Getty Images As always, this year has seen mixed performances in the stock market. Some shares have done brilliantly, while others have been disappointing. Overall though, British blue-chip shares have had a solid showing. The flagship FTSE 100 index is up 20% since the start of 2025. Might there still be bargains in the index? I think so! Here are three FTSE 100 shares that I think could potentially do well next year. JD Sports Retailer JD Sports (LSE: JD) strikes me as a British success story. It has built a huge network of shops in many…
[ad_1] Image source: Rolls-Royce plc Three years ago, Rolls-Royce (LSE: RR.) shares were at rock-bottom levels. At the time, the company was losing money hand over fist and very few investors were optimistic about its share price. In early 2023 however, Tufan Erginbilgiç breezed in as CEO and started to quickly turn the company around. And since then, the shares have soared in value. Here’s a look at how much a £2,000 investment in Rolls-Royce shares three years ago – before Erginbilgiç came in – would be worth now. Life-changing financial gains In fact, three years ago to the day,…
[ad_1] Image source: Getty Images Up 209% since last Christmas (2024), Airtel Africa (LSE: AAF) is one of the UK’s top growth stocks of the past year. As one of my fellow Fools pointed out, it’s grown seven times faster than Nvidia in 2025. The shares were languishing at a three-year low in November last year, not long after I decided to take a chance on the beaten-down company. Now trading at 326p each, they’ve more than tripled in value. But while I’m grateful for the returns, I’m not planning to buy anymore of the shares this Christmas. That’s because…
[ad_1] During the six months to 22 December, the Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock price has risen by approximately 50%. Yet all of the metrics I use to assess the group’s stock market valuation indicate that its shares are hugely expensive. However, as this recent rally demonstrates, many people still see some value in the electric car maker. Clearly, I’m missing something. What could it be? Off the Richter scale Over the four quarters to 30 September, Tesla reported earnings per share (EPS) of $1.77. This means its stock is currently trading on 275 times historic earnings. But this figure has been…

[ad_1] Image source: Getty Images Currently up 34%, Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock is on course to deliver market-beating results again this year, powered higher by very strong earnings growth. Yet it’s also been a strange year, with rising concerns about an AI bubble and the price is down 12.5% since October. I rebought Nvidia back in April when President Trump’s bombshell tariffs announcement sent it crashing to just $95. At that price, I thought it offered a lot of value and, thankfully, it’s now up at $181. But what can investors like myself expect to see in 2026? Let’s take a…
