Elon Musk is a predator -- by which I mean to say, he eats competitor profit margins for breakfast. Since setting up SpaceX in 2002 as a launcher of large rockets to compete with Boeing (NYSE: BA) and Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) , Musk has methodically moved to take over the entire space industry -- or at least its most profitable parts -- piece by piece.
Warren Buffett has never claimed to be able to predict what the stock market would do over the near term. In a 2008 op-ed for The New York Times , he wrote, "I can't predict the short-term movements of the stock market.

However, I suspect the legendary investor could have better predictive abilities than he would ever acknowledge.

Is Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) stock overvalued? This question, while simple on the surface, is extraordinarily hard to answer. Many investors use a valuation metric called a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio. This popular metric is useful because it measures the stock price against a company's profits. And in Nvidia's case, its P/E ratio of 57 certainly looks expensive, considering it's roughly double the P/E ratio for the S&P 500.

I'm a huge fan of dividend stocks. I love to collect the passive income they send me. On top of that, dividend stocks have historically outperformed non-payers by a wide margin (9.2% average-annual total return versus 4.3% since 1973, according to Ned Davis Research and Hartford Funds). Dividend growers have delivered the best returns (10.2%). That's why I focus on companies with excellent histories of dividend growth that seems highly likely to continue.
