Image source: Getty Images More and more, the prospects of a comfortable retirement hinge on building up an independent second income. What might it take to earn £30,000 per year? It depends on aiming for a realistic annual return — and the sum we then need to accumulate. Is 7% per year achievable, say from UK dividend shares in a Stocks and Shares ISA? I think so. Let me explain why. A great track record Over the past 10 years, Stock and Shares ISAs have averaged a return of 9.6% per year. That doesn’t mean the next decade will be…

Image source: Getty Images The Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) share price is up 66% in the last six months. Big investments in its customers, however, means its sales growth might not be as strong as it seems. But while some analysts are hearing echoes of the dotcom crash, I’m not convinced. In fact, I think this is a move that could turn out to be brilliant over the long term. Nvidia’s investments A good example is OpenAI. Sam Altman’s firm plans to build up to 10 gigawatts of AI infrastructure over the next few years using Nvidia’s hardware. The trouble is, the company…
Image source: Getty Images I’ve been scouring the FTSE to find the best value stock I can, and was surprised to discover I already hold it. Although, maybe not that surprised.

This stock ticks that box, even if it’s not dirt cheap, with a P/E of just over 12. There are cheaper shares in my portfolio,…

Image source: Getty Images I wish the stock market crash would hurry up and get on with it. People have been predicting one for weeks, months, years – and it still hasn’t happened. How long can we be expected to wait? I’m joking, of course. There’s always someone somewhere warning that share prices are set to crash and burn. Right now there’s an army of them, including Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey. It’s not hard to see why. The AI bubble fear Markets keep hitting record highs even as the global economy slows. Gold, silver, and Bitcoin are also flying, which…
