Are These The Best Tech Stocks For Your November 2021 Watchlist?

Tech stocks continue to dominate the headlines in the stock market this week. For the most part, this would be thanks to the ever-evolving and improving nature of the industry. To begin with, the Bitcoin bulls continue to power forward as the cryptocurrency surged towards a record high of over $68,000 earlier today. This could show the growing sentiment around blockchain tech and its related offerings in the world now. Aside from the crypto space, more conventional names in tech continue to make eye-catching moves as well.

Notably, one of the latest collaborations in the industry today would be between Luminar (NASDAQ: LAZR) and Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA). For starters, Luminar is a leading name in the development of Light Detection and Ranging (lidar) tech. The likes of which are usually employed by self-driving cars and even in some of the latest electric vehicles (EVs). Through the current partnership, Nvidia is looking to leverage Luminar’s lidar tech in its autonomous vehicles. Safe to say, investors seem to see this as a major win for Luminar, given the scale of the deal. Accordingly, LAZR stock now trades at $21.40 a share as of 10:18 a.m. ET, holding gains of over 20% since today’s opening bell.

Alphabet Inc.

Last but not least, we will be taking a look at Alphabet. For one thing, most would be familiar with the company’s flagship subsidiary Google. This would be the case from its leading ad tech services to its YouTube social media platform and cloud computing services. When it comes to tech, few can boast a portfolio as impressive and vast as Google. Now, GOOGL stock currently trades at $2,957.17 as of 10:18 a.m. ET. This would be after gaining by over 70% year-to-date.

Even with its current tech empire, Alphabet continues to make aggressive plays, expanding its reach. As of last week, the company is planning to set up a new drug discovery firm, Isomorphic Labs (IL). According to Alphabet, IL will employ artificial intelligence to “reimagine the entire drug discovery process from the ground up”. To highlight, this would align with Google’s recent health care-related partnerships with consumer health firms. Overall, Alphabet seems keen to employ its cutting-edge AI tech in the health care industry. Because of this, some would argue that GOOGL stock could have more room to run moving forward. Would you agree?
