Do you like fast action in the financial markets? Or, do you prefer a “slow but steady wins the race” approach to investing? It’s time for a gut-check, as Troika Media Group (NASDAQ:TRKA) stock is definitely a fast mover, and gets a “B” rating for its growth potential and high-risk level. Maybe you’d prefer to stay

Analyst ratings can be a valuable investment research tool, but you may not want to lean on them entirely to make investment decisions. A good example is with shares in China-based electric vehicle maker Nio (NYSE:NIO). Analysts remain bullish on NIO stock. However, based on the latest developments with the company, it is hard to

The Covid-19 pandemic crushed travel and casino companies. However, pent-up demand following the reopening of the economy boosted travel and helped drive business to major casinos.

If you had $200 billion lying around, why wouldn’t you want to have your own bank? That’s probably what Twitter CEO Elon Musk thought when he floated the idea of buying SVB Financial’s (NASDAQ:SIVB) subsidiary Silicon Valley Bank on March 11. Other tech and crypto moguls have since offered up plans of their own. If you

If you wanted to build a profitable bank, how would you do it? The founders of SoFi (NASDAQ:SOFI) certainly had the right idea. Instead of lending to businesses (which tend to chase after the lowest-possible interest rates), why not loan cash to rich kids instead? Or at least the kids you think will become rich

The popularity of OpenAI’s ChatGPT platform helped

From a capital raise to expenditure reductions and even a possible share split, it seems like Exela Technologies (NASDAQ:XELA) is trying anything and everything to save XELA stock from extinction. However, while prospective investors can watch with amusement from the sidelines, there’s no need to take a share position in Exela Technologies. Texas-headquartered Exela Technologies specializes

Warren Buffett is arguably the most successful investor of all time. Through his holding company, Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK.B), the so-called “Oracle of Omaha” has amassed a huge investment portfolio that is today worth $333 billion. Warren Buffett is a classic value investor and discerning in his stock picks. He searches out companies that have a moat around their business and a

There are plenty of electric vehicle (EV) startups out there to choose from. So, why should you invest in Polestar Automotive (NASDAQ:PSNY)?

Cash-strapped electric bus and van startup Arrival (NASDAQ:ARVL) received a financial lifeline last month. That’s when it locked down a financing deal with Antara Capital.

Will investors of California-headquartered electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Mullen Automotive (NASDAQ:MULN) finally catch a break in 2023? The company hasn’t achieved profitability yet but has made progress in other respects. Besides, there’s an event happening this week that could drive interest in MULN stock. To put it mildly, it’s been a bumpy ride for Mullen’s

Short-squeezes have been making headlines in stock trading as an increasingly popular phenomenon. A short squeeze occurs when investors who have bet against a company’s stock (by “shorting” it) are forced to buy back their shares to cut their losses. This sudden buying activity can lead to a surge in the stock’s price, causing a

It’s been a bumpy and volatile week, and that’s no surprise when you look at the economic schedule. Amid all of the headlines, investors are looking at the hot stocks for tomorrow. Even though earnings have died down a bit, there are still companies reporting their quarterly results. Additionally, the Federal Reserve is dominating the

On Monday, SEC filings revealed that three executives had bought an enormous amount of iHeartMedia (NASDAQ:IHRT) stock. Together, the firm’s CEO, CFO and chief accounting officer snapped up over 190,000 shares worth $1.05 million.

On March 6, Mullen Automotive (NASDAQ:MULN) was dealt a one-two punch after its accounting firm, Daszkal Bolton LLP, announced it was resigning. The 150-person Florida-based firm will be replaced by a far smaller NYC-based outfit, RBSM LLC. The same day, the automaker missed a deadline to meet the minimum $1 share price for Nasdaq listing

Last week, I wrote that Troika Media (NASDAQ:TRKA) might be one of the most mispriced penny stocks of the year. The advertising firm’s fundamentals… and completely misunderstood balance sheet… meant that retail investors had likely found a 1,000% winner. In honesty, I also oversimplified matters by calling Troika Media a “surprisingly ordinary reverse merger.” What’s

Can Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) successfully compete with much bigger and more famous electric vehicle manufacturers? Recent results don’t look good for Lucid, and since the company isn’t ambitious in its EV production goal, financial traders should be cautious with LCID stock. As you may be aware, Lucid’s vehicles are so expensive that they don’t qualify for
