However, in 2022 there are quite a number of stocks to watch out for as analysts expect 2022 stock markets to be one filled with so many opportunities for \u201cStock Pickers\u201d even if there may be hitches in-between.\n\nHere are top ten stocks to watch out for in this year 2022 based on current research and trends.\n\n<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p><p>&nbsp;<\/p>&nbsp;<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/finance\/quote\/TSLA:NASDAQ?sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwjrqePoqPj2AhWnx4UKHX5jA60Q3ecFegQIFxAg\">Tesla (TSLA)<\/a><\/strong>\n\nThe performance of the Tesla brand has continued to beat general expectations for years now considering its extraordinary 700% gain in 2020 with a 31% Year to date (YTD) gain in 2021 and following up in 2022; it is expected to make further gains ahead.\n\nAfter years of losing money, Tesla has been able to transform itself into a profit engine as analysts are expecting the company to earn about $8.17 per share in 2022.\n\n<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/finance\/quote\/PYPL:NASDAQ?sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwib_7eCq_j2AhVGOhoKHUqGAbEQ3ecFegQIGBAi\"><br><\/a><\/strong><\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/finance\/quote\/PYPL:NASDAQ?sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwib_7eCq_j2AhVGOhoKHUqGAbEQ3ecFegQIGBAi\">Paypal (PYPL)<\/a><\/strong>\n\nPayPal had an absolutely disappointing 2021 as it had almost single-handedly changed the payment processing world. The stock is down about 19% YTD.\n\nEven with how PayPal\u2019s growth has slightly slowed down, it is still generating a significant level of profits but is down about 40% from its all-time high.\n\n<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/finance\/quote\/F:NYSE?sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwiAru7Hq_j2AhXByYUKHdY4BeIQ3ecFegQIFhAi\">Ford Motor (F)<\/a><\/strong>\n\nFor the past two decades, Ford Motor has had quite a disappointing run with the stock trading remaining at the point where it was in 2001 even after a spectacular 138% YTD gain in 2021.\n\nAs of now, the company pays a healthy dividend of 2% and still trades around 52% below its all-time high of $42.45 set way back in 1999 making Ford Motor a really interesting brand to look out for in 2022.\n\n&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/finance\/quote\/ADBE:NASDAQ?sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwivlsfmq_j2AhULyoUKHQUZDpQQ3ecFegQIChAi\"><br><\/a><\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/finance\/quote\/ADBE:NASDAQ?sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwivlsfmq_j2AhULyoUKHQUZDpQQ3ecFegQIChAi\"><strong>Adobe (ADBE)<\/strong>\n<\/a>\nEven after the December setback, Adobe remains up over 13% YTD. Adobe has been consistently shooting on all corners for years on end, and the trends on the back of the company\u2019s cloud and subscription businesses seem likely to continue.\n\n&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/finance\/quote\/NFLX:NASDAQ?sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwiUmZiHrPj2AhUJKBoKHSP4AzsQ3ecFegQIEBAg\"><strong>Netflix (NFLX)<\/strong>\n<\/a>\nBased on statistics, lower borrowing costs would help the company battle the likes of Amazon.com Inc. and Walt Disney Co. for new customers and the streaming pioneer\u2019s bonds are likely rising stars for 2022, seeing that better reflecting its increasing share price and market value, Netflix Inc. could be raised to investment grade on subscriber gains and stronger finances.\n\n<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/finance\/quote\/PFE:NYSE?sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwiKlMC1rPj2AhWDxYUKHXjoCd8Q3ecFegQIDxAi\"><br><\/a><\/strong><\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/finance\/quote\/PFE:NYSE?sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwiKlMC1rPj2AhWDxYUKHXjoCd8Q3ecFegQIDxAi\"><strong>Pfizer (PFE)<\/strong>\n<\/a>\nIn this era of pandemic crisis, it is obvious that more shots are likely to be needed for sustained protection against Covid-19 beyond the current third dose as new variants emerge. Pfizer Inc. is seemingly well placed to capitalize on this and looking at its antiviral pill, this stands stands to see $40 billion to $80 billion in added sales this year 2022.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/finance\/quote\/VSCO:NYSE?sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwiBxu7HrPj2AhVJLBoKHS-bA6MQ3ecFegQIERAg\"><br><\/a><\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/finance\/quote\/VSCO:NYSE?sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwiBxu7HrPj2AhVJLBoKHS-bA6MQ3ecFegQIERAg\"><br><\/a><\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/finance\/quote\/VSCO:NYSE?sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwiBxu7HrPj2AhVJLBoKHS-bA6MQ3ecFegQIERAg\">Victoria\u2019s Secret (VSCO)<\/a><\/strong>\n\nThe new management and initiatives such as a core lingerie focus and the reintroduction of swimwear could most possibly aid profitability this year for the company and propel sales beyond the management\u2019s guidance as Victoria\u2019s Secret &amp; Co. is recapturing the market and its shares as the underwear pioneer is looking towards making its tarnished brand appear more inclusive to appeal to a wider range of customers in 2022.\n\n&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/finance\/quote\/VOW:FRA?sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwixxuDZrPj2AhWI3YUKHX2UClwQ3ecFegQIDRAi\"><strong>Volkswagen (VOW)<\/strong>\n<\/a>\nThis German auto veteran has looked like an old stock since the arrival of Tesla Inc.\u2019s. However, the Volkswagen AG\u2019s tech credentials are rapidly improving to beat the expectations of the market and it will likely overtake the California arriviste in electric vehicle production by 2023 based on statistics. The market is also just realizing that a potential $90 billion initial public offering of Porsche would offer another big plus to the company.\n\n<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/finance\/quote\/KO:NYSE?sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwjYr6HsrPj2AhXhgs4BHRGJBD8Q3ecFegQIGBAi\"><br><\/a><\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/finance\/quote\/KO:NYSE?sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwjYr6HsrPj2AhXhgs4BHRGJBD8Q3ecFegQIGBAi\">Coca-Cola (KO)<\/a><\/strong>\n\nBased on recent reports, a U.S. tax court ruling expected this year threatens to leave Coca-Cola Co. on the edge for at least $11 billion more than the soft-drink giant set aside to cover an IRS suit over accounting discrepancies from 2007.\n\nEven though Coke expects to win this ruling, a defeat could most definitely hurt its shareholders by taking the stream of bubbles out of its huge dividend payout ($7 billion in 2020) and weaken its structure of debt.\n\n<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/finance\/quote\/ABNB:NASDAQ?sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwj9yanV-tz3AhVKeMAKHSbPDEMQ3ecFegQIIxAY\"><br><\/a><\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/finance\/quote\/ABNB:NASDAQ?sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwj9yanV-tz3AhVKeMAKHSbPDEMQ3ecFegQIIxAY\">Airbnb (ABNB)<\/a><\/strong>\n\nAirbnb is constantly being underestimated by this online travel-service company\u2019s brand advantage and the strength of its long-term-stay business\u201420% of nights booked.\n\nIn its fastest-growing reservation category, research shows that bookings could exceed analysts\u2019 expectations by $2 billion to $4 billion (3% to 7%) in 2022. There is no slowing down for Airbnb and 2022 is looking like a good year already for this company.\n\n&nbsp;\n\nThese are some of the stocks you want to look out for to invest in, if at all in 2022.
