The Chinese economy was expected to rebound strongly following the end of stringent Covid-19-led lockdowns. However, the recovery has been slower than anticipated and has adversely impacted investor sentiment on Chinese stocks. After a dismal 2023, Chinese stocks remain under pressure and started the year on a rough note, as companies continue to await robust
When analysts write about the metaverse, it’s not uncommon for it to be in a derisive tone. The fact that we’re not all strapped into virtual reality (VR) headsets with our families at home indicates its failure. The truth is the metaverse is already here. Just like Bitcoin (BTC-USD) isn’t considered a failure due to
Some of the worst and most deadly diseases affect our brains. In multiple sclerosis, the immune system “causes communication problems between your brain and the rest of your body,” preventing some victims from walking.” Brain cancer is often a quick killer, while Alzheimer’s, of course, causes victims to slowly lose their cognitive abilities and is
Ahead of Tesla’s (NASDAQ:TSLA) upcoming quarterly earnings release, the TSLA stock sell-off has continued.

Bargain hunters, beware! The outlook isn’t great for electric vehicle manufacturer Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) stock as the company’s 2023 production and delivery numbers weren’t stellar. Consequently, it’s too risky to go on a bottom-fishing expedition with beaten-down LCID stock. Besides, the EV industry is generally having a demand problem. Giant automakers like Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) should be able to
Even as the S&P 500 marks new highs, many top growth stocks haven’t seen the same momentum. Since most of the recent market gains come from just a handful of leading stocks, hidden opportunities in growth stocks abound. Some are small-caps, of course, and those represent the best long-term growth stocks as they have more room to run. Others,
As the market shakes out, it’s time to consider which EV stocks to avoid. It’s no secret that 2023 was an incredibly tough year for the electric vehicle industry.

There’s been little in the way of news/announcements with Palantir Technologies (NYSE:PLTR) stock recently. As before, all eyes are on the AI software company’s upcoming earnings release, scheduled post-market Feb. 5. I can understand why PLTR stock owners may plan to take profits.

Elon Musk recently stated that he would need 25% voting control of Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) to be comfortable creating AI and robotics products and services within its corporate structure.

For example, industry leaders such as Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) and Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL) have seen their share prices rise by 181% and 57% within this last year, respectively. These are just some of the communication stocks that are on the rise. Communication
While investors should probably direct the majority of their market-earmarked funds toward slow-and-steady ideas – à la Warren Buffett – sometimes, we end up with gambling money. And in that case, speculative stocks to double your money might make sense. To be 100% clear, anytime investors venture into high-risk, high-reward stocks, there’s a reason for
Following a much-hyped introduction, space stocks have admittedly stunk up the field. Nevertheless, the underlying sector is only growing in relevance.
