Stocks to sell

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

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

Following the June 27 presidential debate, the leader of Russia, Vladimir Putin, openly stated how seriously he takes former President Donald Trump’s commitment to ending the war in Ukraine. With Trump vocal about the importance of ending America’s wars, it’s likely the defense industry will take a hit following the closure of Europe’s biggest war

It’s been a great year so far for the Bulls. It seems like the markets and most portfolios are hitting new all-time highs every day. When things get frothy and valuations are stretched, it means some stocks need to be sold after reassessing your investment thesis. In my opinion, these are three stocks to sell

Snowflake (NASDAQ:SNOW) has been in the cloud industry “penalty box” since former CEO Frank Slootman retired suddenly at the end of February. Snowflake is a cloud data warehouse that competes with Cloud Giants like Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) and Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT), as well as privately held competitors including Databricks, Motherduck and Clickhouse. Its fall has been precipitous.

As you can tell from our recent coverage of AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC), we’re clearly not big fans of AMC stock. Let’s be clear, it’s nothing personal. We fully get why some investors remain willing to roll the dice on this one time “meme king.” After all, given how something like the re-emergence of famed meme

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

GameStop (NYSE:GME) stock has swung wildly since Roaring Kitty returned to social media to reiterate just how much he likes the video game retailer. And though shares are down sharply from those peaks, what may not be clear to many is that GameStop stock continues to trend higher. Just because it is not acting like

Another week and more bad news for electric vehicle maker Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA). The Tesla stock rally that had been ongoing since the start of the year’s second half abruptly came to an end on July 11. That’s when the company delayed the heavily hyped launch of its robotaxi. Tesla stock fell 8% on news of

The stock market breathed a sigh of relief last week when June’s inflation numbers came out. The Consumer Price Index fell 0.1% for the month, the first time inflation fell in four years. It signaled the Federal Reserve might cut interest rates, possibly as soon as September. Until then, things had been looking bleak with

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

As the stock market hits new highs in July, investors are riding a wave of optimism, closely tracking climbing indexes. Yet, beneath this bullish surface, some publicly traded companies are becoming bankruptcy risk stocks as they’re grappling with the stark reality of financial distress. Of course, investing in stocks of companies that have filed for

The glory days of the meme-stock phenomenon appear to be over. The heady days of 2021 when these names skyrocketed 30 or 40 times and stayed elevated for many months at a time appear to be long gone. On June 2, the leader of the meme-stock movement, Keith Gill, aka Roaring Kitty, revealed that he

This year will surely go down in the history books as the year of tech stocks, thanks to advances like generative artificial intelligence that are pushing the market to new highs. But for all the amazing tech stocks available today, there are also some truly terrible tech stocks that investors should avoid. The names on

Right before Nio (NYSE:NIO) released its June 2024 delivery numbers, we drop a downbeat analysis of NIO stock. Although at first glance, it may seem like Nio proved us wrong, a closer look shows it is clear why the market didn’t exactly go bananas for NIO on the heels of this news. Although sales grew

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

Solar stocks definitely haven’t been huge winners during this time of high interest rates. Soft demand for solar-power equipment, especially in Europe, has taken a toll on SolarEdge Technologies (NASDAQ:SEDG). All in all, it’s just too risky to wager your hard-earned capital on SolarEdge stock. Sometimes, it can make sense to buy an “underdog stock.”

Faraday Future (NASDAQ:FFIE) represents an ambitious EV startup known for its risk and volatility. Faraday Future stock certainly has disappointed, with the stock down over 99% from its peak amid significant dilution and operational underperformance. That said, FFIE stock is also one that has recently been moving higher. FFIE rose Monday ahead of its July

It’s fine if the “Apes” want to root for AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC). However, investors should consider all of the relevant facts, including the unpleasant ones. Thie year’s meme-stock trend wasn’t meant to last forever, and AMC stock only earns a “D” grade as it’s susceptible to volatility and drawdowns in the year’s second half. To be

In May, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) charged Colorado-based audit firm BF Borgers with massive fraud. Specifically, the SEC stated that the auditor had engaged in “deliberate and systemic failures to comply with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) standards in its audits and reviews incorporated in more than 1,500 SEC filings from January
