Over 300 Stocks Doubled in 2025 -- 3 We Love and 3 We Don't

In this episode of Motley Fool Money, Tyler Crowe hosts Matt Frankel and Jon Quast to analyze the stock market darlings of 2025 and predict their performance in 2026. They each select a stock that doubled in value in 2025 and is expected to continue performing well (Lemonade, Micron Technology, and Next Power), as well as one that may not fare as well in the coming year (OKLO and D-Wave Quantum, and Opendoor). The hosts provide detailed reasoning for their picks, considering factors like growth potential, market trends, and competitive advantages. Finally, they share stocks on their radar that, while not doubles, are still worth watching: Emcor, Disney, and MercadoLibre.
