We recently published a list of 11 Best Breakout Stocks to Buy According to Analysts. In this article, we are going to take a look at where Gogo Inc. (NASDAQ:GOGO) stands against other best breakout stocks to buy according to analysts.
Stock markets have been on edge in response to the US President’s aggressive trade war that has resulted in trade tariffs aimed at settling the trade deficit. Likewise, stocks remain on edge, with the US president ramping up attacks against the Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell raising serious concerns about the central bank’s independence.
Trump has been on Powell’s neck over what he terms as laxity in cutting interest rates at a time when major central banks led by the European Central Bank and Bank of Canada have cut significantly. In posts on his social network Trust Social, Trump has always insisted that the US economy would slow unless Powell, who he has always deemed as “Mr. Too Late, a major loser,” cut rates.
The remarks come against the backdrop of major indices pulling back significantly from record highs as stocks remain under pressure across various sectors. The S&P 500 has already closed on the negative for the 3rd straight month, waiting to see if the selloff will persist. The last time the index closed negative for 4 straight months was in 2011.
While a negative, the sell-off has presented unique investment opportunities as valuations have pulled back significantly from historical highs. Likewise, the pullback has given rise to solid breakout plays as the selloff dust slowly settles. Nearly two-thirds of the S&P 500 stocks have posted first-quarter 2025 results that have topped estimates. Strong quarterly results from some of the big tech giants are helping alleviate concerns about the potential impact of Trump’s tariffs. Likewise, the solid earnings have once again eased concerns that the artificial intelligence progress has slowed amid economic turmoil triggered by the trade war.
“Few stocks are truly immune to Trump tariffs [and] trade war, but AI is a lot less impacted than investors currently believe,” said Jed Ellerbroek, portfolio manager at Argent Capital Management. “We’re early in a very steep growth curve right now, and that goes for AI infrastructure.”
China signaling it is evaluating the possibility of starting trade negotiations with the US is a positive for the markets under pressure. The remarks come at a time when the Trump administration is increasingly targeting quick wins with major trading partners. The prospects of a trade agreement between the US and China should be a catalyst to trigger a significant bounce back after months of deep sell-offs.
