The provider of cloud-based restaurant management services went public at $40, and its stock eventually hit an all-time high of $65.22 in Nov. 2022. But today Toast trades at about $15. The bulls lost interest in the company as its growth slowed, it racked up losses, and rising interest rates compressed its valuation.

After shedding one-third of its value last year, the Nasdaq Composite has gained roughly 37% this year, and there could be more to come.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (NYSE: TSM) -- aka TSMC -- has made a lot of its investors rich since it publicly listed its ADR shares in the U.S. in 1997. If you had invested $33,000 in that initial offering, and reinvested your dividends over the years (after it started paying them in 2004), your TSMC holdings would be worth about $1.08 million today.

A 401(k) plan is something not every retirement saver has access to. And that's OK, because people who don't have the option to save in a 401(k) can instead build a nest egg in an IRA instead. The only requirement to fund an IRA is having earned income -- you don't need an employer's sponsorship or approval. However, you may be in a position where you have the option to save for retirement in both an IRA and a 401(k) in the coming year.
