It’s time for my annual list of 10 top stocks to buy for the new year. I swapped out only four from last year’s list, sticking to stable, growth potential picks. My picks over the past two years have beaten the market, and I aim to continue that success into 2025.

Amazon is a no-brainer stock with massive potential, dominating U.S. e-commerce and global cloud computing. Its generative AI business is driving growth, making it a strong option for 2025. American Express, despite being removed last year, is back on the list for its resilience and growth potential with a fee-based structure.

Carnival has rebounded from pandemic lows but remains off its all-time highs, poised for further growth with record results and debt repayment potential. Dutch Bros, another rebound stock, has shown resilience and profitable growth, making it a strong candidate for 2025. Global-e, offering cross-border e-commerce solutions, expects to reach profitability in 2025.

Lemonade, the insurance technology company, delivered a 176% gain in 2024, presenting strong potential for 2025. MercadoLibre, a top stock with growth opportunities, is down but offers a buying opportunity. Nu Holdings, a Brazil-based digital bank disrupting traditional banking, shows high growth potential with increasing profits.

On Holding, known for distinctive athletic footwear, is moving towards profitability with high revenue and consumer loyalty. SoFi Technologies, an all-digital bank, is attracting millions of new members and poised for growth in 2025.
