It's no secret that over the last couple of years investors have become increasingly curious about the prospects artificial intelligence (AI) presents. With that said, I've found a lot of the discussion around AI to be largely redundant. Software companies are touting how AI-powered services can yield higher productivity levels in the workplace, while hardware and infrastructure players essentially hold the keys to the AI car through the power of data centers and semiconductor chips.

It's been a roller-coaster ride for Shopify (NYSE: SHOP) shares this year, but since the summer, the stock has been on the ascent. After the e-commerce company delivered a strong third-quarter report Tuesday and offered upbeat guidance, its stock hit a new 52-week high. However, the stock is still far below the all-time peak it hit in 2021. With Shopify stock trading up more than 40% year to date as of this writing, it's natural to wonder whether it's too late to buy the stock.

If you're a pre-retiree who's done at least a little research on your eventual retirement income, then you almost certainly know that the longer you wait to claim Social Security benefits, the bigger your monthly payments will be. Indeed, the monthly checks being cashed by 62-year-olds -- the earliest age at which you can claim -- is only a little more than half the payments collected by those who wait until the maximum age of 70 to file.
