Game-Changing Stocks You Must Own

Welcome to Episode #85 of the Zacks Market Edge Podcast.

Every week, host and Zacks stock strategist, Tracey Ryniec, will be joined by guests to discuss the hottest investing topics in stocks, bonds and ETFs and how it impacts your life.

In this episode, Tracey is joined by Brian Bolan, Zacks Growth Strategist and Editor of the Stocks Under $10 portfolio , to discuss technology companies that are game changers.

These companies have disruptive technologies that are shaking up their industries but most of them are also trading at new all-time highs.

Should you buy these stocks now? Or wait for a pullback?

Is Citron Right About Blackberry?

Research group Citron recently came out with a bullish report on Blackberry (TO:BB) (NASDAQ: BBRY Free Report ) arguing that its QNX technology has the possibility of boosting Blackberry’s stock. QNX drives infotainment systems, specifically delivering video, mapping and hands-free functions in cars.

Blackberry already had a disruptive technology but it let it slip away when Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) introduced the iPhone.

Could they get another chance with QNX? And should you be buying the stock?

FANGs (and other hot stocks) at All Time Highs: Should You Get In?

1. Facebook (NASDAQ:FB) (NASDAQ: FB Free Report ) hit a goldmine when it acquired Instagram, which has grown to over 600 million users. People are making a living off of Instagram. For Tracey, a game changer company is one which is creating new jobs that didn’t exist before and Instagram is doing that.

2. NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA Free Report ) just keeps moving higher as it remains a top pick in the hot artificial intelligence area. Even Brian’s mom has recently traded it. (uh-oh) Should you be buying it at the highs?

3. Snapchat (NYSE: SNAP Free Report ) had a rough first quarter but Generation Z still loves the product. Is this a game changer and should you be buying it? Brian has a strong opinion about SNAP.

When talking about game changers, you can’t leave Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) (NASDAQ:TSLA Free Report ) out of the conversation. Is it a technology company or just another car maker? Whatever you want to call it, Brian still loves it and would be a buyer of the shares ahead of the Model 3 launch next month.

What other companies do Tracey and Brian discuss as possible game changers?

Find out this, and whether or not you should be buying the stocks, on this week’s podcast.

[In full disclosure, Tracey owns shares of FB and GOOGL in her personal portfolio.]
