Stocks to sell

While up on the year, transportation stocks continue to trail the market. The S&P Transportation Index is up 10% in 2023, but over five years, the index is up only 12%. Railways, trucking companies, airlines, and shipping firms continue to make the global economy run but can’t seem to gain any traction with investors. And

Inflation has been a recurring theme of the economy, but it’s gotten extra hot in recent years. Reckless money printing is the primary catalyst for higher prices and higher interest rates, and the return of student loan payments doesn’t make matters any better. This is wreaking havoc on e-commerce stocks and making several of them

Apparently, electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer Mullen Automotive (NASDAQ:MULN) is expanding its business operations into a new area — again. The MULN stock bulls might celebrate this, but consider the big picture. All in all, the risk-to-reward balance still doesn’t favor Mullen Automotive and its investors. I’ll admit, there may be a news item or two

In early September, I chose Nio (NYSE:NIO) stock as my top electric vehicle (EV) stock pick. Now, however, I’m having second thoughts. There’s no need to panic-sell your Nio shares, if you have any. However, it’s not a great time to add to a share position or start a new one. As we’ll see in a

We’re all too familiar with this month’s catchphrase – “higher for longer.” The Fed’s promise to keep rates up through (potentially) 2026 spooked investors, and markets reacted accordingly. The S&P 500 fell by almost 5% since the announcement, but more pain could be ahead.  Higher rates pose a risk to stocks on two primary tenets.

Back in the dot-com boom of 1999, Qualcomm (QCOM), the wireless communication trailblazer powering the internet, became the poster boy of the “internet boom.” Shares of Qualcomm then soared 2,659% … in less than a year.  But could Qualcomm live up to the hype?  We know now that it could not, as QCOM stock lost

The fintech industry has been booming in the past few years, as more people have begun relying on digital platforms for banking, payments, investing, and other financial services. The global fintech market is expected to reach $556.6 billion by 2030, according to a report by Grand View Research. Still, not all fintech stocks will succeed

The housing market is in a tricky spot right now. Higher interest rates are causing problems and distortions in the market. With the average interest rate charged on a home mortgage in the U.S. now above 7%, existing home sales have all but collapsed. However, new home construction is booming right now, having risen more

AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC) stock has had a wilde ride these last few years. As you probably recall, global movie-theater chain became a target of meme stock traders in 2021. The glory days of meme stocks may be in the rear-view mirror, however. Now, AMC stock is in a terrible downtrend and the best rating it deserves in

Blink Charging (NASDAQ:BLNK) stock has declined by more than 73% since the start of the year. With this big drop, those among the risk-hungry may be curious whether BLNK stock, at today’s super-low prices, has become a “bottom-fisher’s buy.” This is especially the case, given this stock’s high short interest. According to Fintel, 27.6% of

I have been skeptical about QuantumScape (NYSE:QS) stock for a while. Still, I see why some investors buy QS stock despite a vague commercialization timeline, high cash burn, and the risk of further shareholder dilution. All it will take for shares to spike once is a bit of progress with the company’s efforts to bring solid

Selling cryptocurrencies as a contrarian strategy can yield short-term profits amid a market filled with dubious tokens and scams. A significant disparity exists in the crypto market, with top cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC-USD) and Ethereum (ETH-USD) thriving while many lesser-known ones struggle in a fragmented and unpredictable market. But knowing how quickly the market can

The electric vehicle (EV) market is booming in 2023, accounting for 19.1% of total car sales with global sales expected to reach 14.5 million units by the end of the year. Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) and the general rise of EVs have been fed by the growing electric vehicle charging infrastructure across the United States and elsewhere.

Uncertainty is something that we can evaluate in the financial markets in general. There are many tools and indicators that we can monitor to visualize and quantify uncertainty at a general level in the markets, but there is something that is completely individual and that is risk aversion. It is true that we cannot visualize

The energy market in 2023 is facing a paradoxical situation. On one hand, oil and gas prices have largely rebounded from their historic lows in 2020 and 2021, thanks to geopolitics around the Russian-Ukrainian war and the supply constraints imposed by OPEC and its allies. On the other hand, not all oil and gas companies

Biotech companies can offer some of the most explosive returns for an investor. Small-cap biotech companies are known to shoot up 100% overnight and also to dump 50% in an instant as well. Why is this the case? Well, these companies are highly innovative but have an extremely risky business model. They are highly dependent

Student loan repayments are rearing their ugly heads as borrowers prepare to start paying them back next week. After three years of blissful reprieve, borrowers are set to begin dedicating cash towards their burdensome debt loads. That cash flow requirement will begin cutting into household budgets as the national personal savings rate hits multi-decade lows

While the allure of cryptocurrency investments has undoubtedly captivated the market’s attention, it’s perhaps wise for investors to consider blockchain stocks to sell. This is not a call made in isolation. A discernible shift seems underway, where risk appetite among investors is curbing. At the heart of this change in sentiment is the Federal Reserve.

The cybersecurity market in 2023 is booming as more enterprises adopt digital transformation initiatives to enhance their productivity, efficiency, and customer satisfaction. Unfortunately, these initiatives also expose businesses to various cyber threats, including ransomware, phishing, and data breaches. As a result, cybersecurity is essential to protect the infrastructure that supports the digital transformation efforts of

Enterprising investors might have their sights set on multinational specialty chemical and lithium company Albermarle (NYSE:ALB). They might consider ALB stock a worthy indirect wager on the electric vehicle market. However, there are reasons to be cautious, so think twice before considering a share stake in Albemarle. Don’t get the wrong idea here. We’re not saying
