Generally speaking, investors should exercise caution when making any predictions about a particular company. Factors that impact an organization's top and bottom lines are forever changing, and nobody owns a crystal ball. It's a tricky endeavor to say the least. On the flip side, making educated guesses about a company's future is -- ultimately -- what investors do.

When is it time to buy a stock? One of the best-known pieces of investing advice tells us to buy low and sell high. But what constitutes "low" is relative. A stock near its 52-week high can still be considered at a "low" point, provided there's plenty of upside left. That's why investors shouldn't ignore such stocks. With that as a backdrop, let's look at two companies trading near their 52-week highs and are still worth buying: Abbott Laboratories (NYSE: ABT) and Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX). 1.

When it comes to signing up for Social Security, you have choices. You're allowed to file for benefits as early as age 62. But you're not entitled to your complete monthly benefit based on your personal wage history until full retirement age (FRA) arrives. That age is 66, 67, or somewhere in between, depending on when you were born. If you claim Social Security ahead of FRA, you'll face a permanently reduced monthly benefit that could leave you to struggle financially as a retiree.
