If you really want to become a better investor then you need to be looking at where the smart money is heading. You need to understand what is truly driving the markets and how you can take advantage of these moves as – and before – they hit the mainstream.

That’s how the long-term wealth can be found.

We believe these three stocks below can be of assistance in achieving those goals.

Hot Stock No. 1 – Square Inc. (SQ)

SQ remains our top pick for 2019. It’s already recovered from a low of $54 to $70 a share. Technically and fundamentally, the stock appears to be in great shape. Granted, last year wasn’t it’s finest and we were knocked out of a previous trade, but it’s got a lot going for it. For one, third quarter revenue was up 51% year over year. Adjusted revenue was up 68%. That’s up from growth rates of 48% and 60% in the second quarter.

Analysts are taking advantage of the pullback, too. Canaccord Genuity for example just upgraded SQ to a Buy from a Hold, noting they had “been on the wrong side of Square stock for some time,” as noted by Barron’s. The firms also noted it sees a long-term opportunity given Square’s status as a “truly disruptive company.”

There are two ways to trade SQ at the moment.

One way is to buy the stock at market prices. Another way is to buy to open the SQ March 15, 2019 80 and 85 calls at market.
