An analytical and questioning mind led her to study journalism and then into a career as a commodities analyst. And it’s here she’s risen to become one of the country’s top metals and mining equity research analysts. Timna Tanners’ passion for this often overlooked, but incredibly vital sector shines through her work as she takes large amounts of information and complex data and compiles them in a way that’s easy to understand. Her various theses – “sheet storm,” “scrap surge,” and “rebarmaggedon”, among others – are popular in the industry. In a sector too often perceived as “old & dirty,”…

Over the long run, a lot of people have made a lot of money from investing in Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA). At repeated points over the past decade, Tesla stock has looked potentially very overpriced. There have been some dramatic swings in the stock price, including over the past year, but the long-term performance has been very impressive. In the past year alone, it has moved up 57%. So, although there are certainly storm clouds gathering around Tesla at the moment, I for one would not write the company off — or anything near it. It has confounded many investors’ expectations…

Image source: Rolls-Royce plc One of the great turnaround stories among large listed UK companies over the past few years has been aeronautical engineer Rolls-Royce (LSE: RR). Rolls-Royce shares have repeatedly hit new all-time highs this year. The share price chart shows how stunning the performance has been over the past five years. However, I do not own Rolls-Royce shares in my portfolio and currently have no plans to change that. Here are three reasons why. Share price matters when investing It is easy to look at a company and imagine it would be a great investment. As an example,…

When people think about boosting their income, the first idea is often to take on a second job. The trouble is, that means giving up more time and energy (two of the most important finite resources we possess). In contrast, building a portfolio of dividend shares takes very little energy beyond the mental effort of learning the basics. Once it’s up and running, the cash dividends flow into an investing account. Here, I’ll show how it’s possible to construct a stock portfolio from scratch that generates £48k a year in passive income.  Getting the ball rolling The first thing most…

Image source: Getty Images The world of penny stocks is notoriously volatile. But it can also lead investors to earn jaw-dropping returns if they can identify the diamonds in the rough. So far in 2025, Agronomics (LSE:ANIC) is proving to be one of these hidden gems, generating a staggering 94% return for shareholders since the start of the year. Even after almost doubling, a small £500 lump sum is still more than enough to snap up 6,757 shares right now. And if the company continues along its current growth trajectory, this tiny investment could grow into something far more substantial…

Facebook Tweet Email Link If you have a lot of cash on hand, it should be making money for you. One way to ensure it continuously does that is to set up a ladder of Treasuries or FDIC-insured certificates of deposit with staggered maturities (eg, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, etc.). A laddering strategy can offer low-risk, predictable returns that will help you keep up with — or beat — inflation, while protecting your money during volatile markets and helping you meet your near- and intermediate-term goals. “Which ladder works for you depends on your needs,” said Collin Martin,…

Even starting from zero on a small budget, doing that regularly could lead to sizeable passive income streams over the long term. How significant? That largely depends on three key questions: how much is invested, at what average annual return and for how long? Earning money without working for it For example, imagine somebody invests £5 a day at a 5% compound annual growth rate. After a decade the portfolio should be worth over £23k. At a 5% dividend yield,…
