Technology stocks are generally divided into two categories: blue chip stocks that generate slow but steady growth through mature technology, and high-growth companies that focus on younger and more volatile markets.

If you are looking for a company with development potential, investing in growth stocks may bring great returns in a promising market. Two growth stocks that provide investors with excellent buying opportunities during the recent decline include Chargepoint Holdings (NYSE: CHPT), a leader in the fast-growing electric vehicle market, and world-class media and entertainment giant Walt Disney ( New York Stock Exchange code: DIS). Chargepoint serves more than 5,000 customers worldwide and 76% of the Fortune 50 companies.

The telecommunications company AT&T (NYSE: T) stands out as a stock that can check many checkboxes for retirees. Although no stock is risk-free, and AT&T happened to have fallen by 25% in the past year, I think AT&T is now a good choice for income-hungry retirees. Almost everyone who owns a mobile phone in the United States knows what AT&T is and what the company does. Telephone bills occupies an important position in the monthly budget of most consumers, so AT&T's business has proven to be very stable over the years.

Citigroup (NYSE: C) Chief Financial Officer Mark Mason recently spoke at the Goldman Sachs Financial Services Conference and mentioned at the end of the Q&A that the bank will suspend stock repurchases in the fourth quarter. Part of the argument for owning Citigroup now is that when the trading price of the stock is lower than the tangible book value (TBV), the bank can repurchase a large amount of the stock, which is the value of the bank when it is liquidated. When banks repurchase stocks lower than TBV, the calculation results show that TBV will grow. Bank stocks are usually traded relative to their TBV. Therefore, in the long run, growing TBV is very beneficial to stocks. The ability to repurchase shares at a price lower than TBV is rare, so Citigroup will be able to take advantage of this while clearing all other problems with the bank and planning a new way forward, which excites investors like me.
