With shares up by almost 28,000% in just 10 years, Nvidia 's (NASDAQ: NVDA) rally will go down in history. A $2,000 investment made in 2014 would be worth $560,000 today -- more than enough to buy a medium-priced home in cash. But returns like that probably won't continue forever. New investors must decide whether the risks of holding Nvidia stock today justify the potential rewards.

Although stock-split euphoria has taken hold in 2024, there isn't a bigger trend on Wall Street than the rise of artificial intelligence (AI). The loose definition of AI involves the use of software and systems in place of humans for specified tasks. What gives this technology such broad-reaching potential spanning virtually every sector and industry of the global economy is the ability for AI-driven software and systems to learn without human intervention.

Many tech stocks benefited from the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) into the mainstream. A prime example is semiconductor chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD). AMD shares skyrocketed from a 52-week low of $93.12 last year to a high of $227.30 in March. But it's far from the only AI beneficiary. Another company particularly well suited to capitalize on the AI market is Micron Technology (NASDAQ: MU).

One nice thing about Social Security is that you can choose when to sign up. And if you're willing to take a financial hit, you can get access to your benefits early. Medicare doesn't work that way. Medicare coverage can't start until age 65, and you can't buy your way into it earlier by paying higher premiums. I used to think I'd claim Social Security as late as possible to lock in the highest monthly benefit possible.
