The Smartest EV Stocks to Buy With $500 Right Now
Nio is still thriving in China's crowded EV market. EVgo continues to expand its charging networks and is locking in more customers. Navitas' more advanced GaN and SiC chips could replace silicon chips in the future. 10 stocks we like better than Nio › Many electric vehicle (EV) stocks soared in 2020 and 2021, but a lot of them fizzled out over the following years as rising interest rates chilled the hot market. Price wars, supply chain disruptions, inflation, higher tariffs, and intensifying trade wars exacerbated that pressure. However, investors who can look past those near-term headwinds might find some promising plays in what has become an out-of-favor sector. I believe these three EV-oriented stocks -- Nio (NYSE: NIO), EVgo (NASDAQ: EVGO), and Navitas Semiconductor (NASDAQ: NVTS) -- could turn a modest $500 investment into a few thousand dollars in just a few years. Nio is a major producer of electric sedans and SUVs in China. Its core Nio brand sells higher-end vehicles; its Onvo brand sells cheaper SUVs; and its Firefly brand sells compact EVs. It differentiates itself from its competitors with swappable batteries which can be switched out at its own battery stations as a faster alternative to EV chargers. Nio faces tough competition in China, but it's gradually expanding into Europe. From 2019 to 2024, its deliveries surged nearly 11-fold from 20,565 to 221,970; its vehicle margin improved from negative 9.9% to positive 12.3%; and its revenue grew at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 53%. That growth was fueled by its robust sales of its higher-end sedans and SUVs, the expansion of its swapping network and battery-as-a-service (BaaS) subscriptions, and its rising shipments in Europe. Government subsidies in China also helped it survive a severe credit crunch in early 2020. From 2024 to 2027, analysts expect Nio's revenue to grow at a CAGR of 26%. They also expect its adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) to turn positive in the final year as it sells a higher mix of premium vehicles, expands its battery subscriptions, and streamlines its spending. But with a market cap of $7.8 billion, Nio trades at just 0.6 times this year's sales. Its valuations are being compressed by the trade war and tariffs, but it could soar higher on any hint of a trade deal or milder macro and competitive headwinds. EVgo is a leading builder of EV charging stations in the U.S. with 4,240 charging stalls serving 1.4 million customers at the end of the first quarter of 2025. Its drivers can pay for each individual charge or sign up for discounted plans, which start at $6.99 a month. Since the end of 2022, EVgo's number of charging stations increased by more than 50% as its total number of customers grew by over 150%. From 2022 to 2024, its revenue grew at a CAGR of 117%. That expansion was fueled by its acquisition of Recargo, which coincided with its special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) merger in 2021; its partnerships with General Motors, Berkshire Hathaway's Pilot Flying J, and Chevron; and federal and state incentives for the construction of more charging stalls. From 2024 to 2027, analysts expect EVgo's revenue to grow at a CAGR of 32% as those tailwinds pick up again. They also expect its adjusted EBITDA to turn positive in 2024 and continue climbing through 2027 as economies of scale kick in. With a market cap of $462 million, EVgo trades at just 1.3 times this year's sales. The softness of the U.S. EV market is likely squeezing its valuations, but it could command a much higher valuation once the macroenvironment improves. Navitas is a leading producer of gallium nitride (GaN) and silicon carbide (SiC) chips. These types of chips can resist higher voltages, switch at higher speeds, and operate at higher temperatures than traditional silicon chips. Its GaN integrated circuits (ICs) are widely used in EV chargers, and it produces SiC devices for EV platforms. It also supplies chips for laptop adapters, data center power supplies, solar inverters, industrial motor drives, and energy storage solutions. From 2020 to 2024, Navitas' revenue grew at a CAGR of 62% as its adjusted gross margin expanded from 33% to 42%. It achieved that growth even as the EV, solar, and industrial markets -- which were expected to generate robust demand for its GaN and SiC chips -- faced tough macroheadwinds over the past few years. From 2024 to 2027, analysts expect Navitas' revenue to increase at a CAGR of 17% as its adjusted EBITDA turns positive by the final year. That growth should be driven by a new artificial intelligence (AI) data center deal with Nvidia, the mainstream adoption of fast chargers in the consumer electronics market, and the broader usage of SiC chips in EV chargers. With a market cap of $1.2 billion, Navitas might seem a bit pricey at 19 times this year's sales. However, it could be well positioned to profit from the secular expansion of the nascent GaN and SiC markets. So not only is Navitas a near-term play on the EV market's recovery, it's also a long-term play on the disruption of traditional silicon chips.

Why Coupang Just Became a Must-Own AI Stock in the Technology Sector
Coupang just publicly unveiled its cloud computing service. The service adds another engine to power the company's growth prospects. The stock trades at a cheap valuation if you have a long time horizon. 10 stocks we like better than Coupang › Another technology player just got into the artificial intelligence (AI) game. Coupang (NYSE: CPNG) recently unveiled its new intelligent cloud computing service focused on AI, which is vying for government funding as South Korea aims to become a cloud computing hub. The e-commerce platform is expanding into another technology field, giving the company an even longer runway to grow. Similar to Amazon, Coupang has begun in e-commerce and has now taken those resources to build a cloud computing service. Here's why Coupang just became a must-own stock in the technology sector. According to its press release, Coupang has been investing in AI computing infrastructure for years to power its warehouses, website analytics, and logistics network. Now, it is beginning to outsource its data centers to third parties. Named the Coupang Intelligent Cloud (CIC), earlier this month management officially unveiled the division, which is a major departure from its commerce platform. It is curious timing -- and perhaps not coincidental -- to have this announcement come right around when the government of South Korea plans to spend $1 billion on a GPU cluster for AI in Seoul. Coupang is one of the companies vying for this contract, which could kick-start growth for this new endeavor. As a Korean company, the government of South Korea is more likely to choose Coupang for this deal, making it one of the potential candidates to win the contract. Cloud computing is a huge and lucrative market, which makes it an exciting sector for Coupang to tackle. Just take a look at Amazon, which generates more than $100 billion in revenue from its cloud computing division. This won't happen to Coupang overnight, but the company just massively expanded its addressable market by entering a sector that is now supercharged by the AI revolution. In e-commerce, Coupang still has plenty of room left to expand its operations in South Korea. Its revenue from its original e-commerce marketplace grew 16% year over year last quarter to $6.9 billion, and is still a small slice of the total Korean retail market. With $2 billion in annual operating cash flow, Coupang is now a self-sustaining operator, which gives it the flexibility to reinvest into new revenue segments. And boy, is it ever reinvesting. It has the newly introduced cloud segment, which can take a lot of capital expenditures as the company looks to build new data centers. There is food delivery, financial technology, video streaming, advertising, and the Farfetch luxury marketplace it just acquired. Most important may be the geographic expansion into Taiwan, which has accelerated revenue growth at the company's "developing offerings" segment to 78% year over year on a foreign currency neutral basis. The segment now does $1 billion in quarterly revenue and should become an increasingly important part of the overall Coupang business in the next few years. There is reason to be highly optimistic around Coupang's future growth prospects. Its core business is still chugging along, Taiwan and other developing offerings are growing quickly, and it just added this new cloud computing division. From my seat, this sounds a lot like Amazon in the early days, and readers are well aware of how well this stock has performed for shareholders in the last two decades. Coupang stock is up 41% in the last year, but I think the party is just getting started. At a market cap of $55 billion, the stock trades at what looks like an expensive price-to-earnings ratio (P/E) of 215, but this is misleading compared to Coupang's forward earnings potential. The company generates $31 billion in annual revenue and believes it can reach 10% profit margins once it stops reinvesting for growth. Given its current revenue growth potential, I think the company can quickly get to $50 billion in revenue and eventually has a path to $100 billion in annual sales. Margins may even end up higher than 10% due to the growth of advertisements and this new cloud computing division. That $50 billion in revenue and 10% profit margins would result in $5 billion in earnings, or a forward P/E barely over 10 compared to the stock's current market cap. This will happen faster than investors think. Coupang stock looks like a fantastic AI stock to add to your portfolio right now.

Under Attack by Trump's Tariffs, Asian Countries Seek Out Better Friends
For most countries that received President Trump's letters last week threatening steep tariffs, especially the Asian nations with economies focused on supplying the United States, there are no obvious substitutes as a destination for their goods. But they are doing their best to find them. Business and political leaders around the world have been roundly baffled by the White House's imposition of new duties, even as governments shuttled envoys back and forth to Washington offering new purchases and pledges of reform. Mr. Trump is erecting new trade barriers and demanding deep concessions by Aug. 1, claiming years of grievance because America buys more than it sells. 'Across the world, tools once used to generate growth are now wielded to pressure, isolate and contain,' Anwar Ibrahim, the prime minister of Malaysia, said at a gathering of Southeast Asian leaders on Wednesday. 'As we navigate external pressures, we need to fortify our foundations. Trade among ourselves. Invest more in one another.' There are already a few signs of such efforts. South Korea's new president, Lee Jae Myung, sent special envoys to Australia and Germany to discuss defense and trade issues, and plans on dispatching delegations to several others. Brazil and India announced plans to increase their bilateral trade by 70 percent, to $20 billion. Indonesia says it is nearing a treaty with the European Union that would drop most tariffs on both sides to zero. And in Vietnam, which Mr. Trump said had accepted 20 percent tariffs on its goods headed to the United States before last week's letters, the deputy trade minister emphasized efforts to reduce her country's reliance on American consumers by leveraging other trade agreements.
