Do you have $3,000 These Stocks Could Double your Money by 2030

Growth investors have endured a painful year in the stock market. The S&P/TSX Composite Index is down more than 10% in 2022, and there are plenty of growth stocks trading at losses far greater than that. 

As much as it pains me to say it, I’m bracing myself for more selling in the short term. Those investing for the long term, though, don’t need to be nearly as concerned with more short-term pain. As a long-term investor myself, I’m looking to take advantage of the market’s pessimism this year and load up on quality companies that are trading at discounted prices.

I’ve reviewed two discounted TSX stocks that have the potential to double in size by 2030. They’re two very different businesses, but both are no strangers to delivering market-beating gains. 

There may be more selling in the short term, but I think these two stocks will be back to outperforming the market sooner rather than later.

Lightspeed Commerce

It’s been a roller-coaster ride for anyone that’s been invested in Lightspeed Commerce (TSX:LSPD) since its early days on the TSX. 

After going public in early 2019, the high-growth tech stock has experienced all kinds of highs and lows. At one point in 2020, the tech stock was up an incredible 500%. Today, shares are priced close to where the tech stock was trading when it first went public.

As a high-growth tech company, Lightspeed has always been priced at a premium. That’s because there is a lot of growth expected of the company in the coming years. Lightspeed has managed to continue growing quarterly revenue in the +50% range, but it will need to keep that up to justify its valuation.

The good news is Lightspeed is in a prime position to continue delivering monster growth numbers. The company is still largely focused on growing both its international presence and product offering.

While I’m both a huge bull on Lightspeed and a current shareholder, I’m certainly not banking on volatility disappearing anytime soon. As a high-growth tech stock, volatility should be expected. The tradeoff is the potential to earn multi-bagger returns, which I firmly believe Lightspeed is capable of doing.

ir Canada

I’m not an Air Canada (TSX:AC) shareholder yet, but that may change by the end of the year. Canada’s largest airline is one of the few North American airline stocks that has delivered market-beating returns in recent years.

Shares of Air Canada quickly rebounded from the COVID-19 market crash but have struggled to return to pre-pandemic highs. Today, the stock is trading more than 50% below all-time highs set in early 2020. 

Going back five years, Air Canada is trading at a loss due to the COVID-19 selloff. But looking at the five years prior to 2020, shares are up nearly 300%. The market-beating gains don’t slow down either if you keep going back another five years.

We’ve already seen demand for travel slowly ramp up in recent months. As a result, I wouldn’t wait too long if you’re interested in starting a position in Air Canada. I don’t think it will be long before Canada’s largest airline is back to outperforming the market.

Solana still worth a buy, up 11,000%

The cryptocurrency market has exploded since March 2020 and touched a cumulative market cap of US$3 trillion in November 2021. Solana (CRYPTO:SOL) was among the top-performing cryptocurrencies in the last year, as it surged higher by almost 11,000% in 2021. However, in the last two months, several digital tokens, including Solana, have lost steam. The SOL token is down almost 50% from all-time highs, making it attractive to contrarian investors. Let’s see if the recent pullback presents an attractive buying opportunity to crypto bulls right now. Solana is valued at a market cap of US$46.8 billion Its staggering gains in the past year have meant that Solana is now valued at a market cap of US$46.8 billion, making it the fifth-largest cryptocurrency in the world, at the time of writing.

To get $1,000 of passive income annually, buy 4,167 shares.

The fickle nature of the global economy has once again showcased the importance of creating multiple income streams. Companies are laying off employees across sectors due to an extremely challenging macro environment. The triple whammy of inflation, interest rate hikes, and supply chain disruptions are likely to impact both revenue and profit margins for corporates in the near term, driving down the valuations of several TSX stocks. However, the pullback in share prices has also increased the dividend yields of TSX stocks since 2022. As forward dividend yields and stock prices have an inverse relationship, you can buy shares of undervalued companies and benefit from tasty dividend yields. Investing in quality dividend stocks can help you generate a passive stream of income and benefit from capital gains over the long term. Let’s see how much you need to invest in this TSX stock to earn $1,000 in annual dividend income. Diversified Royalty stock A Canada-based multi-royalty ...

Investment in these 3 stocks for a chance to win $1,000,000

Last year, the Canadian government announced that the annual contribution to the Tax-Free Savings Account (TFSA) would rise to $6,500. That brings the cumulative contribution room, at least for those who have been eligible for a deposit since January 2009, to $88,000. The S&P/TSX Composite Index rose 38 points on Thursday, March 1. Today, I want to look at three stocks that have the potential to make you a TFSA millionaire. Let’s jump in. This crypto-connected stock offers a real shot at huge growth this decade The cryptocurrency space has proven explosive and extremely volatile since being thrust into the mainstream in the latter half of the previous decade. Top cryptos like Bitcoin and Ethereum erupted following the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Bitcoin’s price would shoot to an all-time high in late 2021 before suffering sharp losses afterward. It has only been able to recoup a fraction of its major losses to start 2023. Hut 8 Mining (TSX:HUT) is a Toronto-bas...
