You can save over $1,500 on LG’s 65-inch C5 OLED TV
The 65-inch LG C5 OLED TV is rarely this affordable. LG might have just revealed its new C6 OLED TVs at CES 2026, but we still don’t know when they’ll actually hit stores. If you don’t want to wait — or spend a couple thousand dollars on a brand new model — the current-gen LG C5 OLED is a fantastic option now the 65-in...

The best alternatives to Spotify for listening to music
If that concerns you (especially if you're a current Spotify subscriber), you'll be glad to know that there are quite a few alternatives available for good music listening, some with free versions (and some not), and some that can help you find new and lesser-known artists.

The BIGGEST holding in my stocks and shares ISA in 2026 is…
At the start of 2026, I hold 24 different businesses in my Stocks and Shares ISA. But the largest position by a significant margin right now is Shopify (NASDAQ:SHOP) – not because I’ve invested the most in this business, but because it’s been a stellar performer. Since I first bought its shares back in September ...

Looking to build a life-changing second income? For me, the best way to chase a strong and sustained income — and one that requires considerably less effort than most popular side hustles — is to invest in the stock market. Last year, the FTSE 100 delivered an enormous 25% total return to investors. For the S&P 500...

I’d back these FTSE stocks will deliver double-digit growth in 2026
The FTSE 100 may not look obviously cheap at first glance, but dig beneath the surface — and to other areas of the UK market — and there are still pockets of real value. A handful of stocks appear mis-priced relative to their earnings recovery and medium-term growth outlooks. And these are simply the stocks I know best...

Here’s the forecast for the HSBC share price and dividends in 2026!
The HSBC (LSE:HSBA) share price is actually trading above where most analysts believe it should be. That’s a real turnaround because UK banks, in recent years, traded at huge discounts to the share price targets. In fact, the stock’s now trading way above the commonly-used 50-day Simple Moving Average tool, suggesting ...
