Markets: Researcher names top stock picks 'outside the mainstream'
So far this year markets have endured a slew of hurdles-from inflation worries, to rising rates, and now recent turmoil in the banking sector. Despite the wild ride, there are still names that may be worth a look according to Jonathan Boyar, President of Boyar Research. Boyar noted excitement over Topgolf Callaway Brands (MODG) as a viable stock pick. He noted the company buying 86% of Topgolf it didn't already own, makes the stock “a growth story at a value price…about 50% of their EBITA in 2023 will be Topgolf, and there's lots of room for expansion." Overall, Boyar said his picks are “outside the mainstream because I think that's the way investors will be able to make money over the next 3-5 years" For more of Jonathan Boyar’s stock picks watch the full interview here with Yahoo Finance’s Rachelle Akuffo.

Data-driven AI gives companies an 'exponential advantage': Researcher
Technologies like ChatGPT are helping companies realize the capabilities of their own data, R "Ray" Wang, principal analyst and founder at Constellation Research, tells Yahoo! Finance Live. The data can help inform strategies, give companies insight into the consumer, and can be used to gain huge competitive advantages. "We often joke that Topgolf was bought by Callaway -- and Callaway now has the biggest collection of really bad swing data," says Wang. "Now, what could you do with bad swing data? You can make better golf balls and golf clubs," he says. The importance of such data sets will create what he calls an "exponential advantage" compared to other companies -- but will also increase demand for computing capacity and ultimately, for more chips. "Companies will start hoarding data sets or create unique data sets," says Wang.
