These Tech Stocks Make Irresistible "Takeover Targets" / Companies / Tech Stocks
MoneyMorning.com William Patalon III writes: I'm going to start by letting you in on a simple-but-powerful investing secret.
And that secret is this: Never buy a company's stock just because you're betting on a buyout.

DIYers Stocks Sector Summer Trend Is Revving Up / Companies / Sector Analysis
Matthew Carr writes: I’m secure enough to know what I can and can’t do.
But a longtime friend is always telling me about his plans to remodel his home. That he’s going to take down a wall or put in a new set of cabinets or build some piece of furniture.

Why Apple’s New Music Service Will Crush Spotify / Companies / Apple
Alexander Moschina writes: I love music. I sit at my desk with earbuds in all day (for my coworkers’ sake). Which is why most professional conversations typically begin with “Sorry, what?” or “Wait, I didn’t catch that...”
That said, I haven’t bought a physical album since 2012.
It’s not that I don’t appreciate liner notes... artwork... or higher-quality audio. I just prefer the convenience of having the world’s music at my fingertips - at all times - via streaming services like Spotify and Pandora (NYSE: P).

Three Reasons Why Carl Icahn Is Wrong About Apple Stock / Companies / Apple
MoneyMorning.com Michael A. Robinson writes: Just try to find a bigger Apple Inc. (Nasdaq: AAPL) bull than me.
I was among the first analysts to put a pre-split target price on the stock of $1,000. (Following last year’s 7-to-1 stock split, that works out to a price of $142.85, just 7.7% above today’s opening price.) And I’ve been helping you find good entry points on Apple stock ever since.
But for me, Apple is not just a way to make money. Sometimes it seems like my whole life depends on Apple products and the Silicon Valley legend’s unique tech “ecosystem.”

MoneyMorning.com Dr. Kent Moors writes: Following some nice recent gains and despite a dip on Tuesday, the market currently remains at just below $60 a barrel for West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil futures in New York.
The recent rise in prices would seem to be just what the smaller operators in the United States need to avoid a sector meltdown.
A few months back, when prices were pushing lows of $40 a barrel, there was widespread talk of a wave of bankruptcies coming in the oil patch. The picture is now better, given a recovery in crude prices.
