The S&P 500 fell 0.4% this week after rising 0.3% to 2,372.60 today, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 0.5% this week after advancing 44.79 points, or 0.2%, to 20,902.98 today. The Nasdaq Composite dipped 0.2% this week after gaining 0.4% to 5,861.73 today.

The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq Composite snapped six-week winning streaks, while the Dow ended a four-week winning streak.

Wellington Shields’ Frank Gretz notes that the “market is supposed to be anticipatory.” He explains:

Opinions follow price … memories do as well. If higher prices alone were not enough, the news always seems to improve as prices move higher. After all, the media always needs to explain the higher prices, and the good therefore becomes the emphasis. For example, there's little talk of the all-but-certain pending rate hike. Since the election the market has had a remarkable run, one built more on policy hope than policy reality. This complaint is met with the retort that it has only been 50 days, or whatever. Fair enough, but the point remains. Then, too, the market is supposed to do this, it's supposed to be anticipatory. Investors are getting this, and hence, what has been persistent strength. Interestingly, investors will begin to believe they always got it – no one was really worried about a possible trade war, and so on. The psychologist Baruch Fischhoff called this "creeping determinism," the idea that unexpected events turn into the expected. In other words, we will remember being more bullish in November than we were.

Top 10 Low Price Stocks To Invest In Right Now: National Grid Transco, PLC(NGG)

Advisors' Opinion:
  • [By Tyler Crowe]

    National Grid (NYSE:NGG) has been about as solid of a dividend investment as any investor could ask for over the past decade. The company is the epitome of utility stocks as its regulated electricity and natural gas transmission businesses bear almost no commodity price or power-generation risk. For investors, the trade-off for that stability has been a rather slow rate of growth. 

  • [By Anders Bylund, Timothy Green, and Brian Feroldi]

    So we asked a few Motley Fool contributors to share some alternatives to GM's attractive dividend yields. Read on to see why our panelists recommended Pitney Bowes (NYSE:PBI), National Grid (NYSE:NGG), and AT&T (NYSE:T).

  • [By Logan Wallace]

    National Grid (NYSE: NGG) and EnLink Midstream Partners (NYSE:ENLK) are both utilities companies, but which is the better stock? We will compare the two companies based on the strength of their profitability, institutional ownership, risk, valuation, dividends, earnings and analyst recommendations.

  • [By Maxx Chatsko]

    Investors would be forgiven for overlooking National Grid (NYSE:NGG) when evaluating utility stocks. Over half of the company's asset base is located in the United Kingdom, along with its corporate headquarters. That means it reports financial performance in pounds, and it's a lot easier to avoid currency conversions and the painful effects of currency exchange rates, which have significantly weighed on the business in recent years thanks to a strong U.S. dollar.

    CNX Midstream Partners (NYSE: CNXM) and National Grid (NYSE:NGG) are both oils/energy companies, but which is the superior investment? We will compare the two businesses based on the strength of their institutional ownership, dividends, risk, earnings, profitability, analyst recommendations and valuation.

Top 10 Low Price Stocks To Invest In Right Now: Manitowoc Company, Inc. (MTW)

Advisors' Opinion:
  • [By Dan Caplinger]

    Wednesday was a good day on Wall Street, with the Nasdaq Composite and Russell 2000 indexes both hitting record highs and other major benchmarks also generally posting solid gains. Optimism about the strong U.S. economy was enough to offset geopolitical concerns related to trade even as White House officials reiterated their position on keeping newly imposed tariffs in place. Some individual companies also had good news that sent their shares sharply higher. Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD), Nektar Therapeutics (NASDAQ:NKTR), and Manitowoc (NYSE:MTW) were among the best performers on the day. Here's why they did so well.

William Blair analyst L. De. Maria now forecasts that the industrial products company will post earnings of $0.30 per share for the quarter, up from their prior estimate of $0.18.

    Industrial stocks have been a casualty of Donald Trump's trade war, writes Barron's. In a recent column, the business journal noted that the Industrial Select Sector SPDR ETF, a proxy for industrial stocks as a whole, has lagged the performance of the broader S&P 500 in 2018. And yet, over the past month, both the S&P 500 and the Industrial SPDR have been trending upwards. One analyst thinks the time has come for three industrial stocks in particular -- Caterpillar (NYSE:CAT), Manitowoc (NYSE:MTW), and Helios Technologies (NASDAQ:SNHY) -- to rake in some gains.

Top 10 Low Price Stocks To Invest In Right Now: TC PipeLines, LP(TCP)

Advisors' Opinion:
  • [By Matthew DiLallo]

    Most investors have probably heard of energy giants Royal Dutch Shell (NYSE:RDS-A) (NYSE:RDS-B), Dominion Energy (NYSE:D), and TransCanada (NYSE:TRP). Fewer, however, are likely familiar with their publicly traded master limited partnerships (MLPs): Shell Midstream Partners (NYSE:SHLX), Dominion Energy Midstream Partners (NYSE:DM), and TC Pipelines (NYSE:TCP). That might be a good thing, as the market has beaten up the latter trio this year, sending their valuations south.

    For years, Canadian pipeline giant TransCanada (NYSE:TRP) has used its master limited partnership (MLP) TC Pipelines (NYSE:TCP) as a source of capital by dropping down assets to that entity in exchange for cash. However, a regulatory policy change earlier in the year hit TC Pipelines hard, which caused the MLP to slash its distribution to investors. These changes have weighed heavily on the MLP's valuation and access to capital. Because of that, TransCanada no longer believes it can use TC Pipelines as a viable funding option.

  • [By Reuben Gregg Brewer]

    TC Pipelines, LP (NYSE:TCP) did something that no limited partnership wants to do in May of this year: It reduced its distribution. The 35% distribution cut was clearly material for unitholders, and was compounded by a nearly 30% drop in TC Pipeline's unit price. Although the units have gained some ground back, they remain off roughly 40% for the year. Value-conscious investors might wonder, however, if TC Pipelines, with its still generous 7.9% yield, is a buy at this point?

Top 10 Low Price Stocks To Invest In Right Now: Tronox Limited(TROX)

Advisors' Opinion:
  • [By Maxx Chatsko]

    One factor contributing to the awful start to life as a publicly traded company is simply timing. Venator Materials stock listed on public exchanges just in time to catch the last few months of a multiyear bonanza for titanium dioxide stocks. Shares of Kronos Worldwide, Chemours, and Tronox Ltd (NYSE:TROX) all jumped by triple digits in the three-year period ending in 2017. That helped to soften the blow from their double-digit declines suffered so far in 2018, but the newcomer has no such history to hang its hat on.

  • [By Shane Hupp]

    Tronox (OTCMKTS:TROX) had its target price lowered by equities research analysts at BMO Capital Markets to $13.00 in a report released on Tuesday, The Fly reports. The firm currently has an “outperform” rating on the basic materials company’s stock. BMO Capital Markets’ target price indicates a potential upside of 0.93% from the company’s previous close.

The move suggests the titanium dioxide manufacturer and the FTC are making progress toward a compromise over the acquisition of the Saudi-based chemicals producer, which has been under intense regulatory scrutiny for two years.
