Today I cover the top dividend growth stocks I'm buying now. These are DGIF stocks I am buying for 2021 and beyond for my long term investing stock market portfolio. JOIN US ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/firedupwealth Apple (AAPL) has been an American success story several times over. First, it ignited the personal computer revolution in the 1970s with the Apple II. Then it reinvented the PC in the 1980s with the Macintosh. Co-founder Steve Jobs returned to run Apple in 1997 and oversaw a winning streak of innovations that included the iMac, iPod, iTunes, iPhone, iPad and the App Store. The biggest driver of Apple's modern success is the iPhone. The game-changing smartphone, which debuted in 2007, sparked years of massive growth and created a loyal base of customers willing to buy Apple products and services. But iPhone sales have slowed as users hold on to their handsets for longer periods between upgrades. However, the company could be in the early stages of a major upgrade cycle with its first 5G iPhones. Apple Stock News: iPhone 12 Debuts: On Oct. 23, the Cupertino, Calif.-based company began selling the 5G-enabled iPhone 12 series. The handsets have display sizes of 5.4, 6.1 and 6.7 inches and starting prices ranging from $699 to $1,099. In addition to ultrafast 5G wireless connectivity, the 14th-generation iPhones have improved cameras, speedier processors and a new design. The Pro models of the iPhone 12 have a new rear-facing lidar scanner. Lidar, short for "light detection and ranging," will permit depth sensing for photo and video applications, including faster autofocus in lowlight situations. Plus, it will open up new possibilities for augmented-reality experiences. Apple debuted the iPhone 12 along with the HomePod Mini smart speaker at an online event on Oct. 13. However, investors were unimpressed. On Nov. 10, the company introduced its first Mac computers running Apple-designed processors instead of chips from Intel (INTC). At the event, Apple showed off two notebook computers and one desktop computer running its M1 chip. The M1 chip delivers up to 3.5-times faster central processing unit performance than Intel-based Macs. The chip boasts up to six-times faster graphics processor unit performance. It also is much more power efficient. Apple stock dipped 0.3% on the day of the news. Apple Opportunities For Growth With iPhone growth slowing, investors are wondering what the next big growth driver will be for Apple stock. Lately, two businesses have given Apple's sales and profits a boost: services and wearables. In the September quarter, Apple's services revenue rose 16% to $14.5 billion. Services include the App Store, AppleCare, iCloud, Apple Pay, Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Arcade and other offerings. Meanwhile, Apple's Wearables, Home and Accessories unit saw sales increase 21% in the September quarter. This unit includes wearables like the Apple Watch, AirPods wireless earbuds and Beats headphones. It also contains the Apple HomePod wireless speaker and other miscellaneous gadgets. Tractor Supply (TSCO) is the largest operator of retail farm and ranch stores in the United States. The company targets recreational farmers and ranchers and has little exposure to commercial and industrial farm operations. Currently, the company operates 1,904 stores in 49 states, and 183 Petsense stores. Stores are typically located in towns outside of urban areas and in rural communities. Through the end of 2019, revenue consisted primarily of livestock and pet (47%), hardware, tools, and truck (21%), and seasonal gift and toy (20%). LeMaitre Vascular Inc (LMAT) manufactures and distributes medical devices for the treatment of peripheral vascular disease. Its products are primarily used during open vascular surgery and address several anatomical areas, such as the carotid, lower extremities, upper extremities, and aorta. LeMaitre's surgical devices include angioscopes, balloon catheters, carotid shunts, phlebectomy devices, vascular grafts, vascular patches, and vessel closure systems.

Today, I cover the top high growth stocks I'm buying now. These are stocks I am buying for 2021 and beyond for my long term investing stock market portfolio. I discuss Crowdstrike (CRWD), Datadog (DDOG), Draftkings (DKNG), Teladoc (TDOC), and Marvell (MRVL). Can these high growth stocks boost your stock market gains?
CrowdStrike is a leader in cloud-delivered, next-generation services for endpoint protection, threat intelligence, and response. The CrowdStrike Falcon platform stops breaches by preventing and responding to all types of attacks—both malware and malware-free. Datadog is the essential monitoring platform for cloud applications. We bring together data from servers, containers, databases, and third-party services to make your stack entirely observable. These capabilities help DevOps teams avoid downtime, resolve performance issues, and ensure customers are getting the best user experience. DKNG: “The resumption of major sports such as the NBA, MLB and the NHL in the third quarter, as well as the start of the NFL season, generated tremendous customer engagement,” said Jason Robins, DraftKings’ co-founder, CEO and Chairman of the Board. “In addition to our year-over-year pro forma revenue growth of 42%, DraftKings recorded an increase in monthly unique payers of 64% to over 1 million, demonstrating the effectiveness of our data-driven sales and marketing approach. Our product offerings and scalable platform provide a distinctive and personalized experience for customers across the ten states where we operate mobile sports betting today, and we look forward to entering additional jurisdictions at the earliest opportunity.” Teledoc has been in existence since 2002, so it has first-mover status in the industry and has earned name recognition. In the third quarter, it reported revenue of $288.8 billion, up 109% over the same period in 2019, and it grew total visits to 2.8 million, a 206% year-over-year increase. The $18.5 billion deal with Livongo should give Teladoc annual gross run-rate synergies of $500 million by 2025, Teladoc said. The deal, which gives Teladoc a 58% stake in Livongo, allows the company the ability to reach brand new customers. The two companies separately said they had less than 25% overlap of customers. This year, the combined company said it expects its adjusted EBITDA to be more than $120 million. ARK Invest is buying TDOC.

(NASDAQ: MRVL), a leader in infrastructure semiconductor solutions, and Inphi Corporation (NASDAQ: IPHI), a leader in high-speed data movement, today announced a definitive agreement, unanimously approved by the boards of directors of both companies, under which Marvell will acquire Inphi in a cash and stock transaction.

Inphi has built a leading high-speed data interconnect platform uniquely suited to meet the insatiable demand for increased bandwidth and low power for the cloud data centers & global networks of the future. Inphi’s high-speed electro-optics portfolio provides the connectivity fabric for cloud data centers and wired and wireless carrier networks, just as Marvell’s copper physical layer portfolio does for enterprise and future in-vehicle networks (autonomous driving). Combining Marvell’s storage, networking, processor, and security portfolio, with Inphi’s leading electro-optics interconnect platform, will position the combined company for end-to-end technology leadership in data infrastructure. This highly complementary transaction expands Marvell’s addressable market, strengthens customer base, and accelerates Marvell’s leadership in hyperscale cloud data centers & 5G wireless infrastructure. Today’s machine learning and other data-driven workloads have expanded beyond the confines of the server and now span the entire cloud data center, making the software-defined data center the new computing paradigm. This trend drives hyper-connectivity within the data center, putting electro-optical interconnects at the heart of the cloud architecture. In addition, the need for bandwidth between data centers continues to grow at astounding rates. Combined with explosive Internet traffic growth and the rollout of new ultra-fast 5G wireless networks, the importance of Inphi’s high-speed data interconnect solutions will only accelerate. The combined company will be uniquely positioned to serve the data-driven world, addressing high growth, attractive end markets – cloud datacenter and 5G. “Our acquisition of Inphi will fuel Marvell’s leadership in the cloud and extend our 5G position over the next decade,” said Matt Murphy, president and CEO of Marvell. “Inphi’s technologies are at the heart of cloud data center networks and they continue to extend their leadership with innovative new products, including 400G data center interconnect optical modules, which leverage their unique silicon photonics and DSP technologies. We believe that Inphi’s growing presence with cloud customers will also lead to additional opportunities for Marvell’s DPU and ASIC products.” “Marvell and Inphi share a vision to enable the world’s data infrastructure and we have both transformed our respective businesses to benefit from the strong secular growth expected in the cloud data center and 5G wireless markets” said Ford Tamer, President and CEO of Inphi. “Combining with Marvell significantly increases our scale, accelerates our access to the next generations of process technology, and opens up new opportunities in 5G connectivity.” Upon closing, Ford Tamer, Inphi’s President & CEO, will join Marvell’s Board of Directors. Under the terms of the definitive agreement, the transaction consideration will consist of $66 in cash and 2.323 shares of stock of the combined company for each Inphi share. Upon closing of the transaction, Marvell shareholders will own approximately 83% of the combined company and Inphi stockholders will own approximately 17% of the combined company.

Is Airbnb a Top Stock to Buy for a Growth Stock Portfolio?9/7/2020 Today, I cover Airbnb stock, which has an IPO launch coming soon. Airbnb IPO. Should You Buy Airbnb Stock? Is Airbnb a top growth stock to buy now? When is the @Airbnb IPO date?
"It appears that one of the world’s most valuable startups – Airbnb – may finally make its long awaited debut on Wall Street. The travel technology company confidentially submitted a draft IPO registration to the SEC in August, according to Bloomberg. This move naturally prompts the obvious question: Should you invest in Airbnb stock if/when the IPO does happen? My answer is simple. Yes. That may seem counter-intuitive. After all, the Covid-19 pandemic has killed the global travel industry, and caused Airbnb’s revenues to collapse in 2020. But: Airbnb’s valuation has collapsed, too. The company successfully innovated amid the pandemic to sustain a healthy revenue base. Travel demand will rebound in 2021-2022. Robust consumer thirst for experiences – both virtual and physical – implies that Airbnb will return to big growth post-2020 and sustain that big growth for the next five to 10 years. So, for all those reasons, I say yes, you should invest in Airbnb stock following the IPO. Here’s a deeper look."
