Stock traders and golfers almost universally have one trait in common: they are always on the hunt for a pro tip that will help them improve their game or investment portfolios. Former TD Ameritrade CEO Joe Moglia would certainly qualify as a "pro" when it comes to stock trading. During a recent appearance on CNBC's Fast Money, Moglia offered his opinion on strategies to help traders play the market in 2025.
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>This Jeff Bezos-backed startup will allow you to <a href="https://arrivedhomes.go2cloud.org/aff_c?offer_id=15&amp;aff_id=1006&amp;aff_sub=yahoo&amp;aff_sub2=byerscta100">become a landlord in just 10 minutes, with minimum investments as low as $100 for properties like the Byer House from Stranger Things.</a></li>
<li>Unlock the hidden potential of commercial real estate —<a href="https://equitymultiple.com/benzinga?invite=benzinga&amp;utm_campaign=product-promotion-earn&amp;utm_source=yahooFinance&amp;utm_medium=affiliate&amp;utm_content=unlockboost-yahoo"> This platform allows individuals to invest in commercial real estate offering a 12% target yield with a bonus 1% return boost today!</a></li>
</ul>
Perhaps the most striking aspect of Moglia's interview was his admission that he's "the most bullish on the market that he's been in 10 years," which should encourage investors. When the hosts asked him why he felt this way, Moglia quickly said, "The president, we've got someone in there who is pro-business, pro-markets." He also noted how President-Elect Trump has warmed up to Cryptocurrency, a change from several years ago.
The host noted that Moglia manages his portfolio and that more than half of it in "growth stuff, including Crypto,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42696614/cathie-wood-takes-profit-on-hot-ai-stock-palantir-again-continues-to-sell-block-shares-amid-bitcoin-buzz"> Cathie Wood</a> kind of stuff, tech stocks" before asking him, "How does that align with the retail trader?" Joe responded, "I think today, if you're an individual trader, I don't know how you expect to have good performance if you're not involved with technology (stocks)."
See Also: ‘Scrolling To UBI' — Deloitte's #1 fastest-growing software company allows users to earn money on their phones. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-y2">You can invest today for just $0.26/share with a $1000 minimum.</a>
He also suggested several potential starting points for retail traders when he said, "The<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/11/41756882/magnificent-7-basket-notches-over-200-gain-since-bidens-election-how-did-tech-giants-perform-und"> Magnificent Seven</a> is a good place to be" and suggested tracking Cathie Wood's trades in this sector. Moglia also detailed how he, much like the President-Elect, has evolved his views on cryptocurrency and is now very much in favor of it being part of retail investor portfolios.
He expanded that by saying, "You've got the crypto play, which I think five years ago or two years ago, that may have been overly aggressive, but I think you have to be involved now." Although Moglia's ideal portfolio holdings have changed from 10 years ago, he remains a proponent of the "barbell method," where the portfolio is equally balanced on each side with risk and growth, with long-term holdings in between for balance.&nbsp;
Trending: Wondering if your investments can get you to a $5,000,000 nest egg?

Moglia also explained how that barbell may be differently weighted and affected by factors such as the investor's age, goals and risk tolerance. The hosts asked him to compare today's retail investor with the retail investor of 10 years ago. Moglia responded that today's investors have better financial literacy and access to more information than they did 10 years ago. He also believes today's investors are more aggressive.
Moglia made another salient point when he stressed that losing money in a bull market is still possible. Although Moglia believes in the Magnificent Seven and cryptocurrency, he stressed the importance of retail investors planning their investment strategy and staying on top of their portfolios. Moglia quipped, "Lots of families spend more time planning vacations than they do their investment portfolios."&nbsp;

Former TD Ameritrade CEO Joe Moglia On Which Strategies Traders Can Use To Play The Market In 2025

Meta Platforms shares are trading higher after JMP Securities raised its price target on the stock from $660 to $750.

In the current market session, Beacon Roofing Supply Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BECN#NASDAQ">BECN</a>) share price is at $102.70, after a 1.10% increase. Moreover, over the past month, the stock fell by 10.91%, but in the past year, went up by 16.78%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is overvalued, even if the company is performing up to par in the current session. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1735837209_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Evaluating Beacon Roofing Supply P/E in Comparison to Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Beacon Roofing Supply has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 93.58 of the Trading Companies &amp; Distributors industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1735837209_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

Major indexes are higher, with chip stocks rising to begin 2025.

Nio Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NIO#NYSE">NIO</a>) closed 2024 with a bang, delivering a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/42758569">record-breaking 31,138 vehicles</a> in December — a staggering 72.9% year-over-year jump. 
Quarterly deliveries hit an all-time high of 72,689, while annual deliveries climbed to 221,970, marking a 38.7% surge from the previous year.
Yet, Nio stock&#8217;s technicals paint a less rosy picture.

Nio stock recently formed a dreaded <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/death-cross">Death Cross</a> — a bearish technical signal where the 50-day moving average dips below the 200-day moving average. Despite posting a 7.57% gain during the early hours of trading on Thursday and a 6.59% increase over the past month, NIO stock&#8217;s overall trend remains bleak.
Trading at $4.62, the stock lags behind its medium- and long-term moving averages, signaling persistent selling pressure.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">A Tale Of Two Trends</h2>
While delivery numbers suggest growth, technical indicators tell a different story. Nio's Relative Strength Index (RSI) sits at 50.32, signaling mild bearish momentum, and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator of a negative 0.1 leans bearish. 
These technical signs raise concerns about whether the stock can sustain its recent upward movement or faces further declines.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">What's Next?</h2>
Nio&#8217;s ambitious plans, including the launch of its executive ET9 model and the Firefly brand in early 2025, aim to fuel long-term growth. 
However, with Nio stock down 44.3% over the past year, investors are looking for a decisive break above key resistance levels to regain confidence.
The Death Cross may signal caution for now, but with delivery momentum and product innovation on its side, Nio could surprise skeptics. For now, the market awaits confirmation of whether bulls or bears will dominate the road ahead.

Nio Death Cross Shadows Record Deliveries: Can Bulls Reclaim The Wheel?

Short seller Hindenburg Research is betting against Carvana Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVNA#NYSE">CVNA</a>) with the stock up more than 300% over the past year. Despite the bearish report, shares are moving higher on Thursday. Here&#8217;s a look at <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/short-sellers">what you need to know</a>.
What To Know: Hindenburg announced a short position against used car retailer Carvana on Thursday in a <a href="https://hindenburgresearch.com/carvana/">report</a> titled, &#8220;Carvana: A Father-Son Accounting Grift For The Ages.&#8221;
The short seller noted that Carvana shares have soared over the past year on hopes that the worst is behind the company after the car seller battled bankruptcy risks in 2022 and 2023.
&#8220;However, our research, including extensive document review and 49 interviews with industry experts, former Carvana employees, competitors and related parties of the company, undertaken over the course of 4 months, shows Carvana's turnaround is a mirage,&#8221; Hindenburg alleged.
Benzinga has reached out to Carvana for comment on the report.

<a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/cvna">Carvana shares</a> fell about 5% when the report was released, but quickly bounced back. The stock was up more than 3% at last check, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
Hindenburg claimed its research uncovered &#8220;accounting manipulation and lax underwriting&#8221; that have &#8220;fueled temporary reported income growth.&#8221; The short seller said it also found $800 million in loan sales to a &#8220;suspected undisclosed related party.&#8221;
Hindenburg went on to highlight recent insider selling, suggesting the company&#8217;s share price is inflated. All findings aside, the short seller believes the stock is &#8220;exorbitantly valued,&#8221; trading with a 845% higher sales multiple than competitors CarMax and AutoNation, and a 754% higher forward earnings multiple. Carvana currently has a forward price-to-earnings multiple of approximately 101, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
CVNA Price Action: Carvana shares were up 3.37% at $210.20 at the time of publication Thursday, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

The company has announced a rebranding of its division, previously known as &#8216;BlackBerry IoT,&#8217; renaming it &#8216;QNX&#8217; and relaunching the brand to strengthen its presence in the automotive and <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/ac42763883/blackberry-unveils-strategic-relaunch-of-qnx-brand-to-reinforce-leadership-in-automotive-and-gene" rel="noreferrer noopener">embedded industries.</a>
The move, which stems from feedback from customers, partners, and employees, marks a milestone in QNX&#8217;s history, emphasizing its role in powering next-generation Software-Defined Vehicles and mission-critical systems.
Acquired by BlackBerry in 2010, QNX has become a prominent player in real-time operating systems. In the last fiscal year, QNX launched the QNX SDP 8.0, a scalable foundation for next-generation automotive and IoT systems, alongside QNX Sound, an audio innovation platform for SDVs, and QNX Everywhere, an initiative designed to spur a more open development environment for QNX technologies.
John J. Giamatteo, CEO of BlackBerry, highlighted that this rebranding is part of the company&#8217;s strategy to increase visibility and leadership in these industries, with a focus on growth and innovation.

QNX technology is already integrated into over 255 million vehicles worldwide, as well as critical systems in healthcare, industrial controls, robotics, and more.
&#8220;BlackBerry is at an inflection point and QNX is well positioned for the next 10 years as the demand for advanced hybrid cloud/edge computing capabilities becomes crucial for driving a software-defined future. The investments we have made over the last three years have set us on a well-defined path to capitalize on these trends,&#8221; said Mattias Eriksson, President, QNX.
To accompany the rebranding, BlackBerry unveiled a refreshed logo, website, and visual identity, which will be showcased at CES 2025 in Las Vegas.

<a href="https://investorplace.com">InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice &amp; Trading Tips</a>
<a href="https://investorplace.com/industries/technology/artificial-intelligence/">AI stocks</a> have been on a tear recently, with Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/nvda-stock-quote/">NVDA</a>) once again breaking records and crossing above $950 per share. However, as I&rsquo;ve cautioned many times before, this is a stock that investors need to be very careful with at these levels. While I would not recommend shorting Nvidia, the company does face significant downside risk if the AI rally loses steam. At the same time, there is not a whole lot of upside potential left after the meteoric rise.



That&rsquo;s not to say Nvidia couldn&rsquo;t potentially climb even higher &ndash; $1,000 per share or more is certainly possible if the momentum continues carrying it upward. But purely chasing momentum gains above $950 would not be a smart move in my view. Instead, investors should look to more under-the-radar AI stocks that have significant organic growth potential in the coming quarters and years. Here are seven that could trounce Nvidia&rsquo;s gains next year:



<h2>AI Stocks: GigaCloud Technology (GCT)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/trillion-dollar-ai-stocks1600-300x169.png" alt="Automated stock trading concept. Robotic hand analyzing financial data on stock exchange, artificial intelligence utilization to predict precise price change in stock market. Trailblazing. trillion-dollar ai stocks. AI Stocks with Potential. stocks to buy. Strong Buy AI Stocks"><div>Source: Owlie Productions / Shutterstock.com</div></div>At first glance, GigaCloud Technology&rsquo;s (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/gct-stock-quote/">GCT</a>) name may seem a bit misleading. That&rsquo;s because this is not actually a cloud computing company at all. Instead, GCT operates a B2B marketplace connecting buyers and sellers of furniture and other large goods. The company also provides logistics intelligence services, which I believe puts it squarely in the AI sector as well. Moreover, furniture and related companies have seen significant downtrends in their businesses lately that could be poised for a breakout rebound in the coming months.



GCT&rsquo;s recent results have been stellar. The company has <a href="https://www.google.com/finance/quote/GCT:NASDAQ">increased its revenue by 95% to $245 million</a> and net income rose by 185% to $35.6 million. Looking ahead, revenue is expected to rise above <a href="http://seekingalpha.com/symbol/GCT/earnings/estimates">$1 billion in 2024 alongside 50% year-over-year growth</a>. Earnings per share should hit $2.6 this year. EPS is then forecasted to reach $4.2 in 2026, alongside revenue hitting $1.6 billion. In exchange for this tremendous growth, you&rsquo;re paying just 11 times forward earnings and 1 times forward sales &ndash; extremely cheap valuations for a high-growth software company. I don&rsquo;t believe the $402 million debt load changes this thesis either, as GCT generates significant cash flow and has $243 million in cash to help offset it.



Since I first covered this stock in an article last year, the share price has more than doubled. The recent correction looks to me like a prime entry point for the next leg up in this exciting AI play. While not yet a household name, GigaCloud Technology has all the ingredients for huge returns if execution remains strong.



<h2>Upstart (UPST)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/upst1600-300x169.png" alt="Person holding smartphone with logo of U.S. fintech company Upstart Network Inc. (UPST) on screen in front of website. Focus on phone display. Unmodified photo."><div>Source: T. Schneider / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Upstart&rsquo;s (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/upst-stock-quote/">UPST</a>) stock price was up nearly 400% at one point since I first touted the AI lending platform back in early 2023. While the stock has given back some gains and is now up around 100% since then, I stand by my initial bullish call. I continue to believe Upstart can climb much higher over the long term.



Most of Upstart&rsquo;s challenges lately stem from banks facing pressures and taking fewer risks. With economic uncertainty high, banks are hesitant to try new technologies like Upstart&rsquo;s platform. Moreover, consumers have delayed major purchases for the past two years amid rising rates, and cratering demand for loans. However, I expect the tide to turn as the Fed pivots to rate cuts, spurring more borrowing activity. This should significantly benefit Upstart as banks again need credit risk capabilities.



Looking out, I see revenue potentially topping $1 billion in 2026, alongside expanding profitability. <a href="https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/UPST/earnings/estimates">EPS could hit $1 that year</a>, and some analysts estimate as high as $1.26. If achieved, that kind of income growth at reasonable valuations would send the stock soaring. While the path may be bumpy depending on the economy, I remain confident in Upstart&rsquo;s innovative AI over the long run.



<h2>AI Stocks: T Stamp (IDAI)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/ai-stocks1600-300x169.png" alt="Artificial Intelligence (AI),machine learning with data mining technology on virtual dachboard.Double Exposure,Businessman hand working concept. Documents finance graphic chart. quiet stocks with AI prediction"><div>Source: everything possible / Shutterstock.com</div></div>T Stamp (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/idai-stock-quote/">IDAI</a>) is one of the more smaller AI stocks, with its modest size allowing for potentially huge returns if the business takes off. IDAI provides identity authentication software solutions using AI-powered biometrics, cryptography, and data mining. Their tech aims to predict identity/trustworthiness, prevent fraudulent attacks, and protect sensitive user data.



Coverage and forecasts on IDAI are limited given its nano-cap status. However, I view the stock as a worthwhile gamble at around 90 cents per share after falling close to its July 2023 floor price. <a href="https://www.google.com/finance/quote/IDAI:NASDAQ">Revenue grew 127% year-over-year to $3 million</a> last quarter. Its market cap sits at just $8.3 million currently. My biggest worry is the cash burn, likely requiring some dilution before reaching profitability. But if IDAI gains traction, the upside in this cybersecurity play could be enormous.



<h2>AmpliTech Group (AMPG)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/strong-buy-stocks-300x169.jpg" alt='A tickerboard of various stocks, all rated "Strong Buy"'><div>Source: Shutterstock</div></div>AmpliTech Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/ampg-stock-quote/">AMPG</a>) is a technology company designing, engineering, and assembling microwave component-based amplifiers. Their products include radio frequency (RF) amplifiers and related subsystems used in communication systems like Wi-Fi, radar, satellite, and cell phones.



This is not directly an &ldquo;AI&rdquo; firm, but AMPG does employ AI in many operations, as most companies do today. What matters is they are in high-tech sectors with solid growth runways. However, stellar financials are lacking currently. Revenue is <a href="https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/AMPG/earnings/estimates">expected to dive to $15.6 million in 2023</a> from over $19.4 million in 2022, alongside expected reversion to unprofitability.



So why do I view AMPG as a promising buy? The future looks bright. The company should deliver triple-digit growth in 2024, propelling revenue to $32 million and EPS back into positive terrain. The 2024 revenue estimate puts the stock at a mere 0.6 times sales, very inexpensive. I believe this could catalyze a breakout above $2. If execution goes smoothly, 2024 could mark the start of a high-growth, profitable period for AMPG.



<h2>AI Stocks: Klaviyo (KVYO)</h2>



<div><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/kvyo1600-300x169.png" alt="Person holding cellphone with logo of US marketing software company Klaviyo Inc. (KVYO) on screen in front of business webpage. Focus on phone display. Unmodified photo."><div>Source: T. Schneider / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Klaviyo (NYSE:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/kvyo-stock-quote/">KVYO</a>) is a marketing automation platform used by over 143,000 companies globally. It helps businesses to activate customer data in real-time for things like targeted email, SMS, mobile push, and reviews.



Naturally, this is a much larger company. Firms engaging in marketing, customer relations, and related software often trade at steep premiums, and KVYO is no exception. However, I still see upside if it meets estimates. Analysts anticipate <a href="https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/KVYO/earnings/estimates">EPS climbing from 45 cents to 73 cents</a> from 2024 to 2026 alongside revenue surging from $893 million to $1.5 billion from 2024 to 2027. Though expensive at 57 times forward earnings, this seems reasonable given the immense growth.



What makes me bullish are Q3 and Q4 EPS surprises of 78.5% and 15%, plus revenue surprises of 5.2% and 2.8%. If KVYO keeps posting major surprises, multibagger gains could come in 2-3 years. The future looks bright if execution remains best-in-class.



<h2>Symbotic (SYM)</h2>



<a href="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/symbotic.png"><img width="300" height="169" src="https://investorplace.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/symbotic-300x169.png" alt="Symbotic (SYM) Short-Squeeze Stocks"></a>Symbotic Inc. (NASDAQ:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/sym-stock-quote/">SYM</a>) is an automation technology firm focused on boosting operating efficiencies in modern warehouses and supply chains. As I&rsquo;ve articulated before, the current AI revolution is concentrated on white-collar industries but will likely spill into blue-collar domains. Repetitive tasks like factory work can easily be automated with sufficient machine learning. Human ingenuity is needed for jobs like plumbing, but warehouses can easily be automated.



Symbotic helps companies automate warehouses with its software, fitting squarely into this trend. The stock trades at a towering premium &ndash; <a href="https://www.gurufocus.com/stock/SYM/summary">26 times book value</a>. However, this seems reasonable given the market is thinking ahead. EPS is <a href="https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/SYM/earnings/estimates">projected to surge from 18 cents in 2024 to 87 cents in 2026</a>, alongside revenue growth from $1.74 billion to $3.5 billion. I believe an even higher premium is warranted long-term. Revenue could potentially eclipse $15 billion in the next eight years as automation adoption accelerates, with substantial EPS expansion too.



<h2>Lumine Group (LMGIF)</h2>

Mario Gabbeli stocks"><div>Source: Chompoo Suriyo / Shutterstock.com</div></div>Lumine Group (OTCMKTS:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/lmgif-stock-quote/">LMGIF</a>) spun out from Constellation Group (OTCMKTS:<a href="https://investorplace.com/stock-quotes/cnswf-stock-quote/">CNSWF</a>) last year, focuses on communications and media software. It actively incorporates artificial intelligence into offerings, acquiring Neural Technologies in 2021 to enhance its AI offerings. This explains the strong stock momentum &ndash; nearly 130% gains since the spin-off.



LMGIF is a technology company with immense growth runways. The <a href="https://www.gurufocus.com/stock/LMGIF/summary">future 3-5-year average annual revenue growth estimate sits near 50%</a>. Notably, LMGIF is not as unprofitable as it seems. The huge 2023 net loss decline mainly resulted from a $2.8 billion increase in the fair value of redeemable preferred and special securities. Analysts expect substantial profit growth in coming years as top-line expansion surges.



If LMGIF can continue executing on its AI-driven product roadmap, I see plenty of upside ahead. The company operates in a massive addressable market and is poised to capture share if it can sustain rapid product innovation. The growth trajectory looks highly promising at the moment.
