24/7 Wall St.

Stocks were indicated to open higher on Friday at a record. This is after President Trump exited the Paris climate accord and after a weaker than expected nonfarm payrolls report. The bull market is more eight years old and investors have still proven time after time that they will buy every big sell-off. Those same investors are also looking for new investing and trading ideas.

24/7 Wall St. reviews dozens of analyst research reports each day of the week to find new investing and trading ideas for its readers. Some of these analyst reports cover stocks to buy. Others cover stocks to sell or to avoid.

Consensus analyst price target data are the mean of the Thomson Reuters sell-side research service. Additional color and commentary has been added on most of the daily analyst calls.
