Here, the focus is on three high-risk stocks, making them prime candidates for selling before the next market collapse. The first is a prominent electric vehicle (EV) industry player, demonstrating growth but is plagued by

A string of subpar second-quarter earnings reports is hurting the stock market. The technology-laden Nasdaq index fell 3% (more than 500 points) after the initial financial results from mega-cap tech companies disappointed. However, the poor results are by no means limited to technology concerns. Restaurants, airlines, healthcare companies and some financial institutions have delivered earnings

Well, that was a stunner (though perhaps not entirely unexpected). Over the weekend, President Joe Biden made the tough, but likely necessary decision to step down from his reelection bid. It’s why I’m looking at some of the stocks to sell on that news. There’s still plenty of time for the Democrats to mount an

While we’re eagerly waiting for an interest rate cut, one must remember that there is no certainty when it comes to government decisions. Several factors come into play, and the policymakers will not announce a rate cut until they are certain about the inflation level. If a rate cut happens, the economy will improve and we

Tesla‘s (NASDAQ:TSLA) shares suffered severe losses in the first quarter and much of the second before rallying in recent weeks. Investors became more bullish about Tesla stock in hopes that the company would be able to pull off a Q2 earnings beat and show improved profitability. But the earnings report on July 23 contained more

Selling stocks just because of the negative momentum riding behind them is not typically a good idea. However, for the firms that have lost their way, with questionable (and perhaps deteriorating) long-term growth narratives, decaying fundamentals, or other uncertainties that could weigh heavily on one’s longer-term (think three to five years or more) investment thesis,

As of July, political analysts are forecasting a red wave in November and Donald Trump’s return to the Oval Office. If you remember, from his first stint as President, Trump implemented several different economic policies. Much of his focus is on returning employment and manufacturing to the United States.  So, as investors, which companies can

The stock market is soaring to new heights, but not every company is coming along for the ride. In fact, some stocks are careening toward oblivion as we speak with business models that simply don’t work. These stocks may not survive until next spring. Of course, their rock-bottom share prices might tempt many risk-on investors.

Knowing the dynamics of AI stocks is increasingly crucial as the technology continues to integrate across industries. As the market enters July, evaluating AI-focused companies’ performance and potential pitfalls becomes paramount. Here are three companies grappling with distinct challenges amidst their AI-driven strategies. The weakening fundamentals may lead to a massive downfall in their market

For the first time in four years, inflation finally fell. In June, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) slipped 0.1% to 3%. Baby steps.  Yet it has given rise to the hope the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates as soon as September. After an unprecedented series of 11 hikes over the course of a year

Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) certainly hasn’t been the market darling in 2024 that some other Magnificent Seven members have been. However, Apple isn’t undervalued and Apple stock isn’t currently a bargain. It’s wise to wait for a share-price pullback before buying Apple shares.  Also, even as Apple embeds its iPhones with Apple Intelligence artificial intelligence features, investors shouldn’t assume that

Knowing which stocks to sell before a major election can be the difference between making a short-term profit or facing a long-term loss. Moreover, no other sector is as subject to the whim of presidential policy as the energy sector. Thus, with this year’s presidential election leaning in favor of former President Donald Trump, there

The stock market has stayed resilient (and quite hot) in the first two weeks of the second half. Still, there may be a bit of unease from certain market strategists and other pundits, many of whom doubt the market rally can last the year without a substantial pullback. Indeed, whenever you hear about a big-name

After Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) reported better-than-feared second-quarter delivery figures, investors saw a 15% surge in Tesla stock. Despite beating forecasts with 443,956 vehicle deliveries, a 4.8% decline from last year suggests ongoing sales challenges. Competitor General Motors reported a 40% rise in EV sales for Q2. With Tesla’s second-quarter financial results due on July 23, its

It may seem contrarian to say artificial intelligence (AI) is overvalued. However, perception plays a key role. Many companies with skyrocketing share values over the last two years can thank investor misconceptions about the true added value of AI to a company’s operations. As a result, a few AI stocks to sell are potentially disingenuous.

What goes up must come down, and there are a lot of stocks that look vulnerable to a plunge right now. With the market at an all-time high, many stocks have seen their share price double or even triple in the last 12 months. Yet more than a few of these high-fliers look as if

The S&P 500 is up more than 50% from 2022 lows. The primary reason for the resilience of the stock market is enthusiasm around AI stocks. Excitement surrounding artificial intelligence and its potential as a revolutionary technology have sent AI shares skyward, creating what many believe is a bubble reminiscent of the dotcom bubble at the

Last month, Nikola (NASDAQ:NKLA) shares cratered in price, following the announcement and completion of a 1-for-30 reverse stock split. However, so far this month, Nikola stock has been bolting out of the stock market junkyard. Since July 2, this fallen angel of an EV stock has bounced back from its lows, and has climbed back

From an enterprise perspective, 5G has been a game changer for high-speed data transfer and low-latency connections. Yet, many consumers report relatively unimpressive experiences with the 5th generation of telecommunication networks. Part of this might be due to the more niche benefits 5G provides over 4G and the fact that around 40% of users across

Following the French election results, French stocks have seen dramatic shifts in response to the electoral outcomes. Leading up to the first round, French stocks underwent notable volatility as fears mounted over potentially expansive spending under either a far-right or far-left majority, posing risks to the country’s already fragile fiscal stability. In any case, the
