Investor’s Business Daily published an article on April 24 discussing the 10 S&P 500 stocks with the largest losses in market capitalization in 2024. In the second spot is Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock, with a loss of $328 billion or 42%. The only name ahead of Tesla stock is Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), which has lost $433 billion.

Several months ago, I argued that Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) could “stay magnificent” given broader business initiatives at the time. Much of the momentum was due to AI hype, given the vast amount of data Meta has on literally everything. Nine months ago, any company that simply mentioned AI would jump in share price as hope

​​​Inflation is here to stay. While down from the historically high levels hit over the past year or so, inflation rates remain elevated and are wearing on the economy. U.S. business activity slowed to a four-month low this month, which has worried the Federal Reserve. It was looking to cut interest rates at least three

Reddit (NYSE:RDDT) has been quite popular since its launch two decades ago. Indeed, 2023 was a mixed-bag of expectations for Reddit stock, especially when investors saw an $804 million revenue which was accompanied by a $91 million loss. Reddit admitted it was slow to monetize its platform, but expressed optimism about its business potential. The

If you’re only looking for a risk-free, “steady Eddie” financial-sector holding, then you probably don’t want to invest in Robinhood Markets (NASDAQ:HOOD). Bear in mind, Robinhood isn’t a traditional broker and trading platform. Still, risk-tolerant folks may find valid reasons to own Robinhood stock, so we’re assigning it a “B” grade. Robinhood became famous as a

Surely, it’s tempting for investors to place huge bets on Taiwan Semiconductor (NYSE:TSM). The company is a chipmaking giant with expectation-beating earnings results. Overeager traders should pay attention to TSM’s outlook for the global chip market. With that in mind, it’s not an ideal time to buy Taiwan Semiconductor stock. It’s been an interesting year

Trump Media & Technology Group (NASDAQ:DJT) is often in the financial and nonfinancial headlines. Political polls and voter sentiment, however, don’t provide any insight on what to do with Trump Media stock. Your investment strategy needn’t be complicated. Let’s examine Trump Media to clear up confusion and reach a reasonable conclusion. First and foremost, don’t get sidetracked

It’s been a month since Boeing (NYSE:BA) CEO Dave Calhoun announced that he would step down at the end of 2024. While his departure wasn’t termed a “firing,” there is no question Calhoun’s name would have been on a list, if there were one, of CEOs that need to be fired.    The embattled company was

I have been down on Palantir stock (NASDAQ:PLTR) for some time. It is, at its heart, a government contractor. Calling it an AI stock doesn’t change that. Military contracting is a profitable but slow-growth business. Palantir brought almost 10% of last year’s $2.25 billion in revenue to the bottom line. The question is always whether

Trade wars are always destructive. The current escalation in the chip wars will be no different. The Biden administration banned the use of equipment from China’s Huawei and ZTE over alleged national security concerns. Semiconductor stocks like Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) were prohibited from selling their high-end chips to China. Now Beijing is retaliating. It is barring

Investors circling newly public social media company Reddit (NYSE:RDDT) should hold off on taking a position in the company.Now that the hype surrounding Reddit’s initial public offering (IPO) has died down, Reddit stock has fallen substantially since its market debut in March. After peaking at $74.90 per share, the stock has dropped 45% to now

Immediate-term news, like the Bitcoin (BTC-USD) halving or the SEC’s approval of spot ETFs, is important, but that’s not the only think to consider before investing in Marathon Digital (NASDAQ:MARA). Instead, think about the long term and prepare to hold Marathon Digital stock throughout the ups and downs of the crypto market. Yes, we will discuss

The financial sector has a complex relationship with interest rates. This makes the weakening prospect of United States Federal Reserve rate cuts a prospective opportunity for investors buying the stocks of leading domestic banks.  Recent figures from the U.S. Labor Department showed that the Consumer Price Index (CPI) grew 3.5% over the 12 months. This

SoundHound AI (NASDAQ:SOUN) doesn’t make AI chips like some other companies do. It develops “voice AI solutions that let businesses offer incredible conversational experiences to their customers.” This may intrigue you, and we’re giving SoundHound AI stock a “B” grade but be aware of the risks as well as the potential rewards. SoundHound AI CEO Keyvan Mohajer sees

There are three meme stocks and cryptos for investors to consider in April this year. I think that these companies could rally significantly moving forward. The major stock market indices like the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite have had a strong start to 2024, with substantial gains. This impressive run-up has led to concerns about

The most exciting time of the year is finally here – earnings season. This is when prospective investors eagerly wait to see how the market is doing and professional investors try to time their moves.

Volatile stocks are short-term traders’ bread and butter. Making money both ways – whether the stock goes up or down – means that finding the most volatile stocks is the shortest path to fast cash opportunities for day traders and swing traders alike. However, finding volatile stocks is slightly more complex than merely seeing which

While investors’ eyes remain glued on the big names in artificial intelligence, endless other companies are integrating AI technology more quietly. Not every company actively chooses to rebrand as an AI specialist, even while benefiting from its popularity. Yet, savvy investors who know some of the best AI stocks to watch out for may not

Reddit stock (NYSE:RDDT) debuted in late-March, and received quite the welcome from early investors. The stock surged to a high of nearly $75 per share just days after its IPO, but has since come back down to earth.

In the biotech and pharmaceutical world, FDA approval is the number one needle mover for drug stocks. Why?
