Falling back to $30s, Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) stock has already started to give back its post-earnings gains from earlier this month. This is not surprising. In my view, this extreme move higher for INTC stock after its latest quarterly earnings report made little sense. With this, it appears the market is starting to take off the
Stocks to sell
While the winter season can sometimes bring out the holiday cheer on Wall Street, certain retail stocks to sell may court trouble. Certainly, it’s not everyone’s favorite topic. However, it’s also unavoidable. With a rough start in 2022, the year just kept worsening via geopolitical flashpoints, skyrocketing inflation and global supply chain disruptions, to name
Stocks across the board have plunged in 2022. Even the seemingly invincible tech giants, such as Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX), have witnessed year-to-date (YTD) declines of over 50%. The crypto market has fallen too, as investors realize that a bet on crypto is essentially a bet on a high-risk asset. The insolvency of FTX drove the price
As we near the end of a horrendous year for the stock market, many investors may want to reassess their portfolios. Accordingly, for many investors, shifting the focus away from the buy list to stocks to sell may be the way forward. Whether you’re a long-term investor or a short-term trader, it’s important to know
There may be support for GameStop (NYSE:GME) among the meme-stock crowd, but not everyone’s on the long side of the trade.

Investing in SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ:SOFI) stock has been akin to riding a rollercoaster. Time and time again, SOFI stock has surged on increased hopes, only to sink on yet another round of disappointment. That’s what has played out this month, with this fintech stock reversing course in a big way, after briefly jumping back above
2022 was a disaster. Over these last 11 months, inflation hit a 40-year high. There were fears of recession. Nearly 63% of U.S. consumers were living paycheck to paycheck. Markets were crushed.

This is an ideal time to clear your portfolio from F-rated stocks to sell. Face it – F-rated stocks can ruin your holiday by sinking your investments.

Many sectors have been damaged in the train wreck of this year’s stock market. But few have been as hard hit as the stocks of financial technology (fintech) companies.

As the housing downturn continues and looks poised to get worse, it remains best to approach real estate stocks cautiously. Admittedly, the shares of real estate investment trusts (or REITs) and the stocks of other companies involved in the real estate industry, have already fallen considerably, in anticipation of more challenging times ahead. However, many
Late last month, excitement about an activist shareholder’s involvement with the company was enough to give Salesforce (NYSE:CRM) stock a boost. Yet in the past few weeks, matters far more pertinent to the near-term prospects of CRM stock have come back into focus. Worries about a likely 2023 recession, and its impact on enterprise IT
Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOG,NASDAQ:GOOGL) stock might be worth owning at some point in the future, but prospective investors should be skeptical and cautious for now. Alphabet doesn’t rely entirely on advertising revenue, but it’s a significant part of Alphabet’s business. That’s unfortunate during a time of “sticky” inflation. Financial market pundits like to declare that Alphabet is a
Once again, I drew the short (no pun intended) end of the stick and must discuss stocks to sell right now.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average is a stock index comprised of 30 of the largest, most widely held blue-chip stocks in America.

Without a doubt, the fate of Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) stock rests in the hands of its founder and CEO, Mark Zuckerberg. Going forward, META will have to be on board with Zuckerberg’s insistence on morphing Meta into a metaverse business. Before taking a position, however, financial traders should carefully read the CEO’s seemingly apologetic message to
Penny stocks are much riskier than your average investment. After all, you don’t typically have a share price below $5 without some problems, be it a failing business plan, poor execution by management, etc. Yet, for some investors, the potential rewards outweigh the risks. For those itching to put speculative capital to work, I have
Although it’s not a topic that everyone loves to hear, the concept of stocks to sell is a necessary one. Fundamentally, with fears of a global recession rising, investors need to start preparing for the worst. Of course, they can target recession-resistant market ideas as an active measure. But sometimes, you just need to cut
It has been a bruising year for tech stocks. But not all tech securities are equal. Some have fared much better than others. The current market downturn has exposed many technology companies that have not been able to live up to the hype surrounding them. It has also brought far lower the shares of many
Inflation is forcing people to make tough choices in 2022. Nevertheless, the chief executive of audio streaming service Spotify (NYSE:SPOT) is weighing price increases. This could turn out to be a serious misstep. On top of that, investors or would-be investors in SPOT stock need to consider Spotify’s financials, which are subpar even if the company
There was a time when it seemed investors couldn’t get enough of electric vehicle stocks. In their euphoria, they bid up shares of established players all the way down to pre-revenue startups to unsustainable heights. Then the bubble burst and EV stocks came crashing down. Amid concerns about demand destruction, range anxiety and the viability
