Stocks to sell

From its stellar performance in 2021 to deflating in 2022, the biotech sector continued its stagnation into 2023, highlighting some pharma stocks to avoid. Year-to-date, the S&P Biotechnology Select Industry Index has dropped by 4%. Likewise, the number of biotech firms shrunk by 3% in 2023. Although overlapping with the biotech sector, pharma stocks have

Consumer interest has definitely has started to shift away from EV stocks with many investors choosing to sell them in favor of conventional combustion engine companies. Everything from government subsidies to concerns about climate change has spurred growth in the sector. However, since the beginning of the U.S. Federal Reserve’s 2022 rate hike cycle, the

Investors should always pay close attention to stocks with lowered price targets. Not only can that lowered target highlight potential danger, but it can also highlight a potential short opportunity to be well aware of. Often, downgraded and downward price revisions are influenced by company fundamentals, including financial health and future growth. They can also

It’s fair to assert that EV stalks are dangerous overall. The sector has been maligned throughout 2024 and continues to face ongoing issues. The electric vehicle industry continues to evolve but is facing what can optimistically be called a rough patch. Thus, many investors would classify any and all EV stocks as being dangerous. Yet, as with any sector, there are bound to be

Share dilution is a significant risk that investors face in the stock market. Companies can offload their risks to existing shareholders by issuing new shares, which dilutes the ownership stake and potential returns for current investors. This practice is commonly called equity financing or raising capital through equity issuance. The EV stocks to sell in

Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:RIVN) is the next electric vehicle manufacturer to report quarterly results. While not for certain that Rivian stock surges once the latest numbers hit the street, a post-earnings rally isn’t out of the question. Peer Lucid Group (NASDAQ:LCID) may have tanked after its latest quarterly earnings release, but Rivian’s deliveries beat could in

Markets seem to have their mojo back to start the month of May. After suffering a downturn in April, equities are once again rallying on news of strong corporate earnings. Also, the indices have hopes that the U.S. Federal Reserve still plans to lower interest rates at some point this year. However, May is typically

April was forgettable, to say the least, for the stock market. Not only was it the worst month of the year, but it was also the worst month since February 2023. Hence, investors’ focus now shifts to income stocks, potentially offering a safe harbor amidst the volatility. However, it’s imperative not to act impulsively and

Once, the saying “Don’t bet against the mouse” was commonplace when advising investors to avoid trading against Disney (NYSE:DIS). Increasingly, that maxim is falling out of favor and replaced with “Don’t bet against Elon Musk.” Looking at Elon Musk’s many projects with a clear, fair and impartial perspective is nearly impossible today. That’s because political

Industrial stocks have been on a tear, and there are various reasons for optimism. The Biden Administration’s Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) authorized spending $850 billion across hundreds of different projects around the nation. Disbursement of that money is already well under way, with a great deal of jobs and economy activity arising as

The outlook for cryptocurrencies seems to change like the weather. Only a month ago, the whole world was bullish on crypto as a Bitcoin (BTC-USD) halving event approached, when the available supply of BTC that can be mined is reduced by 50%. Past halving events led to parabolic moves that increased crypto prices. Not this

For many investors, the concept of putting money into healthcare stocks to sell them at a future date might seem like a safe investment. After all, almost every person in the United States is dependent upon the corporatized healthcare system in some way or another. The only real exception to this paradigm is the U.S.

Bearishness about Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) has been on the rise lately, but one Intel stock insider has been bucking the trend. CEO Pat Gelsinger has recently been engaging in some insider buying of the chipmaker’s shares. As Barron’s reported on May 3, Gelsinger last week bought up $250,000 worth of INTC stock in the open market.

If you’re wondering which consumer staples stocks to sell this month, look no further. The consumer is hanging tough. Despite persistent inflation and elevated interest rates, Americans are continuing to spend. The Commerce Department recently reported that retail sales in March rose 0.7%. Data for February reflects 0.9% growth, which was the biggest gain in

Although geopolitical tensions are high and defense spending is generally on the rise globally, not all defense stocks companies will benefit. Some defense contractors may face challenges. Those include supply chain disruptions, labor shortages or reputational risks that could impact performance and prices. Moreover, the defense industry is heavily dependent on government contracts and budget

After several months of increasing stock prices, interest in artificial intelligence hit some speed bumps during the Q1 earnings season, and it might be time to think about which AI stocks to sell. There had been a general pullback in market enthusiasm as investors began to accept that the Fed won’t be easing as soon

It has been a few volatile weeks for U.S. equities. After ending the first quarter of 2024 with significant gains, the S&P500 and Nasdaq posted some of their worst months in a while in April. These major indices fell 2.63% and 2.42%, respectively. This dip has led to investors reevaluating their portfolios to consider if

You’ll get no argument from me that GameStop (NYSE:GME) is one of the best meme stocks to sell. However, the video game retailer has been around a long time, suggesting it’s not the worst of the meme stocks to sell.  So who is? QuiverQuant.com provides data on the top meme stocks in U.S. stock exchanges.

The Financial Select Sector SPDR Fund ETF (NYSEARCA:XLF) is down by approximately 3% month-over-month, illustrating the interim negativity attached to the financial sector.  Interest rate uncertainty paired with inconsistent real economic factors will lead to a sectoral drawdown. Sure, some variables might combat my outlook. However, the aforementioned variables may cause credit spreads to surge in the coming months, leading to a

The Dow Jones Industrial Average is full of proven blue-chip stocks, many of which can help build an impressive, high-quality portfolio. That said, the price-weighed nature of the index is just weird and perhaps too arbitrary to make it a widely-followed representation of how the broader market is doing. Undoubtedly, the S&P 500 is the
