Top 5 Millennial Stocks to Buy Right now

According to Nasdaq, one in every three millennials invests in the stock market. That's 25 million new investors under the age of 35 putting money into stocks.

To help you profit from the flood of millennial cash entering the market, we're bringing you the top five millennial stocks to buy today.

In fact, they're the same companies many of the Money Morning experts have been bullish on for years.

You see, the trick to making huge profits is to find "must-have" companies that fall into what Money Morning Chief Investment Strategist Keith Fitz-Gerald calls the six "Unstoppable Trends": medicine, technology, demographics, scarcity and allocation, energy, and war, terrorism, and ugliness (also known as "defense"). The Unstoppable Trends are backed by trillions of dollars that Washington cannot derail, the Federal Reserve cannot meddle with, and Wall Street cannot hijack.

Most millennial stocks are following the technology trend - 44% of all stocks held by millennials are in the tech sector.

With such significant capital flowing into companies that align with our Unstoppable Trends, there's huge profit potential available in millennial stocks.

Here are the top five...

Top Millennial Stock, No. 5: Tesla Inc.

Elon Musk's Tesla Inc. (Nasdaq: TSLA) is currently in 8% of millennial portfolios.

We're not surprised - Keith has been bullish on the long-term potential of TSLA for years.

BIG, FAST PROFITS: This one pick paid 100% in seven days, then 205% the next day, and 410% by the next week. You've got to see how it's done...

Now, TSLA is one of the most volatile stocks on the market, and it is a riskier pick. However, Keith thinks that the scope of Tesla's vision makes the company an attractive investment to watch.

Keith believes that the fact that CEO Elon Musk "is involved in so many things is precisely the attraction here and why savvy investors would be wise to pay attention. Musk wants to redefine the electric grid and, with it, the world's energy supply."

Keith thinks that Tesla's efforts to become "more than a car company" could result in tremendous gains for the company.

Tesla shares are currently trading around $337. However, analysts think TSLA can stock could hit $500 in the next year, a 48% rise from today's levels.

Top Millennial Stock, No. 4: Microsoft Corp.

Microsoft Corp. (Nasdaq: MSFT), a veteran of the 80's tech boom, is in nearly 10% of millennial portfolios.

In addition to the profitability of its ubiquitous Windows software, Microsoft has seen a profit boost from its move into cloud computing and artificial intelligence. Sales of its Azure cloud computing service have been particularly strong, with increases of 90% over the last five quarters. During the most recent fiscal quarter, sales skyrocketed 98%.

Wall Street analysts forecast that total MSFT sales could rise by more than 11% in the next 12 months and that revenue totals could advance up to 9%. The company's growth rate over the next five years is expected to exceed 11%.

Right now, MSFT shares are trading at $93. Given the potential for growth in the cloud computing market, analysts forecast that they can rise to $120 over the next 12 months for a 31% gain.

Top Millennial Stock, No. 3: Amazon.com Inc.

Amazon.com Inc. (Nasdaq: AMZN) is held by almost 12% of millennial investors.

Amazon dominates e-commerce. The company currently has 80 million subscribers to its Prime subscription service and accounts for nearly half of all U.S. digital retail.

While chiefly known for its e-commerce, Amazon has announced plans to move into a wide range of new industries, including healthcare and transportation. And these are industries it will surely disrupt.

Amazon's aggressive diversification is why Keith sees the stock hitting $2,000 within the next year.

"Amazon is knocking the leather off the ball by every metric available," he says. "It's big into data, it's big into shipping fulfillment, it's big into media content - these are things that are firing on all cylinders that the market is hungry for."

Amazon currently trades at $1,503. However, with Keith's 12-month price target, this millennial favorite is still undervalued.

Top Millennial Stock, No. 2: Facebook Inc.

Perhaps no company is more omnipresent in the lives of younger people than Facebook Inc. (Nasdaq: FB). It's likely that its ubiquity is a large reason that the social network's stock is in 14% of millennials' portfolios.

Facebook is a sales-growth juggernaut, with a 122% climb in sales and 145% growth in profits in the 2015 to 2017 period.

These figures are why Money Morning Director of Technology & Venture Capital Research Michael Robinson is so bullish on Facebook.

"Facebook is becoming the most popular form of entertainment on the planet. What began as a way for friends to share thoughts and quirky pictures has become a portal for videos, music, civic action, and so much more," says Michael.

Michael thinks Facebook will continue to build a multimedia digital platform and expand its content offerings.

"Facebook also has the popular Instagram, WhatsApp, and Messenger in its lineup. CEO Mark Zuckerberg wants Facebook to become a primary online hub for videos, messages, texts, photos, and news - all portals that will add profits for years to come," he says.

Three years ago, Michael gave Facebook a lofty price target of $108. Since then, Facebook has repeatedly met and blown through even his most ambitious price estimates.

Right now, Michael's target price for FB shares is $250, 40% above the current price of $178. But if FB keeps on trend, it is likely to blow past that price as well.

Top Millennial Stock, No. 1: Apple Inc.

With 22% of millennials holding Apple Inc. (Nasdaq: AAPL) in their portfolios, the tech giant is the most popular stock among millennials.

Apple is responsible for over 15% of global smartphone sales. However, it nets 75% of smartphone profits thanks to its hefty price tag and global popularity.

Apple's smartphone dominance has allowed Apple to rake in a massive $230 billion last year.

However, Michael sees even greater potential for profit in the near future. Michael believes that Apple's repatriation of cash as a result of the new tax law will power the company's research spending, product development, and stock price.

The potential for Apple's growth has given Michael an aggressive price target. "With all of that cash Apple has overseas washing up on our shores, those programs are about to get supersized," Robinson said. "This stock is headed to $250 within 30 months."

While these tech stocks have great growth potential, there's one energy breakthrough we're even more excited about...

Critical: FCC Approves Revolutionary Device

It's a stunning breakthrough that's set to spark the most monumental life-changing transformation you'll ever see.

The Washington Times says the technology behind this revolutionary innovation "will change the world on a scale hardly seen in human history."

And now that it's approved by the FCC, the floodgates are set to open - and could reward early investors with astronomical gains.

With one tiny company at the heart of this massive shift, even a small investment could create staggering wealth for years to come.
