10 Monster Stocks to Hold for the Next 10 Years
While some volatility has reentered the market due to rising hostilities in the Middle East, this can still be a good time to invest in some growth stocks for the long term.
Let's look at 10 monster growth stocks to buy for the long haul.
Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Continue »
1. Nvidia
Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) has been one of the market's biggest winners, as its graphics processing units (GPUs) have become the backbone of artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure. That should continue as its CUDA software program has created a wide moat, helping it attain a 92% market share in the GPU space in the first quarter. With AI infrastructure demand continuing to rise, Nvidia is well-positioned for years of continued growth.
Biggest risk: A slowdown in AI infrastructure spending.
2. Broadcom
While Broadcom (NASDAQ: AVGO) is seeing strong growth from its networking portfolio, its biggest opportunity lies in helping customers develop custom AI chips. It projects that its three furthest along customers in this area will be a $60 billion to $90 billion market opportunity in fiscal 2027 alone. Meanwhile, it has added other big customers since then, including Apple.
Biggest risk: A slowdown in AI infrastructure spending.
3. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (NYSE: TSM) is the world's leading contract semiconductor manufacturer, producing chips for companies like Nvidia and Broadcom. Its technological expertise and scale have made it an invaluable part of the semiconductor value chain, allowing it to increase prices and expand margins. As AI infrastructure spending and other chip consumption grows, TSMC is set to be one of the biggest winners in the years ahead.
Biggest risks: A slowdown in AI infrastructure spending and/or Intel being a more viable competitor.
4. Palantir Technologies
Originally a data-gathering and analytics company serving the U.S government, Palantir Technologies ' (NASDAQ: PLTR) AI platform (AIP) has been gaining strong momentum in the U.S. commercial sector. The platform helps organizations gather data from a variety of sources and organize it into an "ontology" that connects the data to real-world assets and processes. This allows its customers to then use AI to solve complex, real-world problems. AIP is being used in a wide array of industries, which gives Palantir a huge growth runway ahead.
Biggest risks: A high valuation and budget cuts at the U.S. government.
5. Alphabet
Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL)(NASDAQ: GOOG) is not only a leader in search, but it's seeing strong growth in its cloud computing and robotaxi businesses as well. Meanwhile, as the world moves toward AI-powered search, the company has huge distribution and ad network advantages. Alphabet's AI capabilities and ability to monetize content also should not be underestimated. While some see AI as a risk, more likely than not, it will be a growth driver for the company in the coming years.
Biggest risks: AI disrupts its search business and harsh penalties from its antitrust trial.
6. Amazon
Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) is the market leader in both e-commerce and cloud computing. AWS continues to be its biggest growth driver, and the company is investing heavily in the business to capture the AI opportunity in front of it. At the same time, it's using AI to drive efficiencies and lower costs in its e-commerce operations, helping boost profitability.
Biggest risks: A slowdown in consumer spending and overbuilding its data center infrastructure.
7. Pinterest
Under the leadership of CEO Bill Ready, Pinterest (NYSE: PINS) has spent the last few years investing heavily to help transform its platform into one that is both more engaging and shoppable. Some of the newest features that have been rolled out to help support this vision are visual search and personalized recommendations. This has helped Pinterest not only grow its users, but more importantly, to start better monetizing them. Meanwhile, its new Performance+ solution, which integrates AI tools and automation to help advertisers run better campaigns, is expected to be a growth driver moving forward.
Biggest risks: A slowdown in consumer spending and lower ad budgets.
8. Philip Morris International
A growth stock in a defensive industry, Philip Morris International (NYSE: PM) is being led by its portfolio of smokeless products that includes the nicotine pouch Zyn and premium heated tobacco product Iqos. Best of all, these products have better unit economics than traditional cigarettes. Meanwhile, since it does not sell its cigarettes in the U.S., this business has held up well, with modest volume growth and strong pricing power. With Zyn a hit and Iqos set to be rolled out in the U.S., Philip Morris has solid growth ahead of it.
Biggest risks: International markets begin to see volume declines like the U.S. and a failed launch of Iqos in the U.S.
9. Dutch Bros
Dutch Bros (NYSE: BROS) has one of the most compelling growth stories in the restaurant space. It's been seeing solid same-store sales growth, but it really has an opportunity to accelerate that with the introduction of mobile ordering and the rollout of more food items on its menu. At its heart, though, Dutch Bros is an expansion story, and it has a huge runway on this front over the next decade.
Biggest risk: The concept fails to resonate with consumers outside its core Western U.S. region.
10. e.l.f. Beauty
e.l.f. Beauty (NYSE: ELF) has been one of the fastest-growing cosmetic brands in the mass-market space over the past several years, taking considerable market share away from established players. However, when growth suddenly started to slow last quarter, the company took bold action and bought Hailey Bieber's emerging Rhode brand. Despite Rhode's huge success, it has a minimal product lineup, distribution, and marketing budget. This should give e.l.f. plenty of opportunity to grow the brand in the coming years.
Biggest risks: Tariffs and the Rhode brand's popularity fades under its umbrella.

10 Stock Splits Investors Could See Happen by 2026
Few things garner attention for a stock as much as a stock split. Though a split does nothing to change the fundamentals of a stock or the business, it excites investors for a number of reasons. First, they're the primary tool by which companies can artificially lower their share prices, thereby making them more affordable to individual investors. Second, they act as a milestone for the stock, essentially resetting its growth path so it can rise again. Third, management chooses the timing of stock splits, and they generally signal confidence from management that the stock can keep going up. If management was not confident about the stock's ability to keep gaining, they would be less likely to issue a stock split. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Learn More » Finally, there's also evidence that stock-split stocks outperform the S&P 500 over the 12 months following the split, according to research from Bank of America. While that's not a reason to buy stock-split stocks, it is a reason to pay attention to them. On that note, let's take a look at 10 stocks that could split by the end of 2026. 1. AutoZone AutoZone's (NYSE: AZO) chief rival, O'Reilly Automotive, just issued a 15-for-1 stock split, and AutoZone looks like a great candidate for one next year as well. The seller of aftermarket auto parts now trades north of $3,600 per share, making it one of the highest share prices on the stock market. AutoZone has a long track record of growth and performing well in both bull and bear markets. After tripling over the last five years, the stock seems overdue for a stock split. 2. MercadoLibre MercadoLibre (NASDAQ: MELI) is another longtime successful now trading at a lofty share price of around $2,500. The stock is up more than 8,000% since its 2009 IPO but has never had a stock split in its history. The company continues to grow rapidly thanks to its strong positioning in e-commerce and digital payments in fintech, meaning a stock split makes sense at some point, if not by the end of next year. 3. Costco Costco Wholesale (NASDAQ: COST) is a unique retailer in a number of ways, and that includes its approach to its share price, which is now hovering around $1,000, well above any mass market retailer. Costco has not done a stock split since 2000, but considering the high share price of the stock and the overall health of the business, a stock split would likely be greeted warmly by investors, especially for retail investors who just have a little cash to spend. 4. ASML ASML (NASDAQ: ASML) is one of the leading semiconductor equipment companies in the world. In fact, it's the only maker of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography equipment used to make the most advanced chips for AI and other applications. ASML's stock price is currently trading around $800, making it a good candidate for a stock split as it has not done so since 2012, when it did an unusual reverse 77-for-100 stock split. 5. Coinbase Crypto is having a big year with Bitcoin hitting an all-time high, legislation regulating stablecoins passing, and the post-IPO of Circle, the owner of the stablecoin USDC. Against that backdrop, it wouldn't be a surprise to see Coinbase (NASDAQ: COIN) split its stock. Its share price is currently around $300. That isn't especially high, but the stock would likely soar on a stock-split announcement, so doing one to take advantage of the tailwinds in crypto could make sense. 6. Booking Holdings With a share price above $5,000, Booking Holdings (NASDAQ: BKNG) may be one of the most obvious candidates for a stock split. However, the online travel agency has thus far resisted it. The company has only ever done a 1-for-6 reverse stock split when it was at its nadir in 2003 following the dot-com bust. Management may be opposed to a stock split, but doing so would likely make the stock more available to more investors. 7. Netflix Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) has been one of the biggest surprises over the last three years as the company overcame a decline in subscribers in 2022 and has since surged with the help of its new advertising tier, a crackdown on password sharing, and a push into live TV. With its share price now above $1,000, a stock split wouldn't be a surprise, especially since the company has done them several times in its history. 8. ServiceNow ServiceNow (NYSE: NOW) is one of the most successful software-as-a-service stocks, and it's now one of the highest-priced at nearly $1,000 a share. The company continues to invest in new AI features and deliver steady growth. The company has never done a stock split since going public in 2012. 9. Meta Platforms Meta Platforms (NASDAQ: META) is the only member of the "Magnificent Seven" to have never done a stock split. After going public in 2012, the stock has risen nearly 2,000% to around $700 a share. It's unclear if Meta will do a stock split by 2026, but one seems likely if the stock keeps climbing. 10. Intuit Finally, Intuit (NASDAQ: INTU) looks like a good prospect for a stock split. Shares of the owner of TurboTax and QuickBooks are trading at around $750 a share, and the stock has been a strong performer for years, recently benefiting from advances in AI to make its products easier to use. The company's most recent stock split came in 2006 so it seems due for another one. Should you invest $1,000 in Costco Wholesale right now?

MoneyMasters Podcast 6/19/25: Why Iran vs. Israel Can't REALLY Crush Oil Markets (But Can Help Gold)
Are the headlines about Middle East energy chaos completely wrong? And how does the Iran vs. Israel conflict impact gold? In today's episode of the MoneyShow MoneyMasters Podcast, we sit down with Anas Alhajji, managing partner at Energy Outlook Advisors, and Joseph Cavatoni, senior market strategist for the Americas at the World Gold Council. Alhajji exposes why Iran cannot truly 'close' the Strait of Hormuz (80% of their own imports flow through it) while Cavatoni breaks down the 15-year central bank gold buying trend consuming 25%-30% of annual new gold production. You'll also discover why 83% of Gulf oil flows to Asia rather than the US, how America's energy independence has completely changed the geopolitical equation, and why Chinese and other foreign investors are driving gold prices more than Fed policy. If you invest in oil and energy stocks via (USO) or (XLE), precious metals via (GLD), or just want to separate fact from fiction in today's volatile markets — this is essential listening. Reminder: Both Anas and Joseph will be speaking at the 2025 MoneyShow Masters Symposium Las Vegas, scheduled for July 15-17 at Caesars Palace. Click here to register.
